Gran Turismo 5 Karting Footage

We’ve known karting would feature in Gran Turismo 5 for some time now. Whether or not you think the addition is a bit batty, you have to admit that it’s at least admirable how Polyphony are apparently trying to cover every known form of racing ever created in an effort to be the biggest racing game in the universe.

Hell – something has to justify that protracted development time. Check out the footage below. ModNation Racers this ain’t.

  1. Er, can this guy even drive? I wouldn’t trust him to take me to the shops.

  2. Real life mario Kart :)

  3. I think I’ll wait to pass judgement on this karting side of GT5, because watching a video of someone who seems to be finding it difficult to drive with a DS3 on a circular track, isn’t going to be anything mindblowing. Hopefully we’ll get a vid of someone with a ffb wheel on a more technical track who can also drive, then it’ll be fair play :D

  4. Part of me still thinks bikes are going to be the big surprise in this game.

    • Not impossible, as Polyphony Dig have dabbled with bikes in the past with Riding Spirits 1/2 on the PS2…and they were pretty awesome games, for me anyway.

  5. if i like racedriver gridd will i like this??

  6. To be honest I don’t think it looks fun at all, it seems slow paced, repetitive and generally will be boring. The rest of the game looks great, who knows it could be awesome?! =/
