Gran Turismo 5, we’re told, aims to set new standards in terms of graphics, presentation, and gameplay. Featuring more than 1,000 licensed cars and more than 20 tracks, GT5 is going to be utterly epic.
We’ve seen some ridiculous screenshots today (your rear lights actually change the colour of the smoke on the rally courses, for example) but nothing more interesting than these four official shots of the Top Gear Test Track.
Modeled to perfection, this will be your chance to challenge The Stig’s best times on what appears to be an exact replica of the famous BBC circuit, and will allow 16 player online racing around the course, totally changing the dynamic.
It’s going to be worth the wait, this. Face tracking via the PlayStation Eye, a completely rewritten physics engine, real time visual deformation, dirt, performance damage and that unbeatable roster of motor vehicles.
Roll on November.

I have pre-ordered the GT5 CE, and I can’t wait for it to arrive.

The Track cant be “Exact” though can it? i read in top gear magazine that they cant do proper races on the top gear track because its a figure of 8, which means it will be more like demoltion derby.

That would make the online races interesting!!! ;)
