...will be available Thursday on the Japanese PSN.

How can you have a demo of a demo?

GT Prologue isn' t a demo, it' s a prequel to GT5.
It' s a game for the GT fans who can' t wait for the next installment in the series.

If you' re not thinking it will be worth your money, wait for GT5 that will be worth your money.

Its free right

Its free right

No.. GT4 Prologue costed me money on PS2, and I expect GT5 Prologue will cost me money on PS3. :)

And I assume that the reason why they are going to remove GT:HD from PSN (allready happened in Japan, and announced will happen in the rest of the world), is because they want to sell the game. :-/

There will be a GT5 Prologue demo on PSN tough, wich will be free.
But I assume you will have to buy the game in stores.. :)

Things we know GT5 Prologue will feature:
- 30 cars available to race with.
- 5 tracks – including London City Track and Suzuka. You’ll also be able to race the tracks in reverse, and with “alternate routes”.
- 16 player online multiplayer.
- Photo Mode – take screenshots / pictures of in game experiences and save them to your PS3’s hard drive.
- Gran Turismo TV – download / watch racing related videos through the PlayStation Network.
- My Garage – a personalised feature, complete with your friends list, a chat functionality and game records.

GT5 will probably have atleast 20 times the number of cars as revealed in prologue, and much more tracks and more modes.

Gran Turismo HD
Gran Turismo 5: Prologue

I can' t wait.

Not sure if I will buy Prologue though, I guess it all depends how good it really is.

$40?! Are you kidding me?! Does that go toward the cost of the eventual GT5?

The demo (which will go up on Saturday) features just one track and seven cars.

Up to 16 cars can take part in a race, but the demo won' t have online play.

2008 Lexus IS-F



2009 Nissan GT-R



2008 Mazda Atenza



2008 Subaru Impreza WRX STi



2008 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X GSR



2008 Daihatsu OFC-1



2009 BMW 135i coupe

It just went up and it' s 736MB.

Impressions and photo' s as soon as i' m done downloading

Horrible backgrounds, screen tearing, aliasing and even slowdown.

Not what i was expecting...

The car models look good but not noticably better than PGR4' s.

The track in the demo is really uninspiring - the one in GTHD is better, and if i didn' t already know and you showed me the two games side by side i wouldn' t be able to tell you which was Gran Turismo 5.

The car interiors are superb though.

Thats disappointing to hear. Im sure the slowdown and screen tearing will be fixed eventually I guess through optimisation.

I dunno if GT5 will eventually make me buy a PS3. GT1 did it for me for PS1 because it was really just mario kart until then! GT3 A-spec did it for me for PS2 becuase it was the best looking racing ' sim' around. But now I' ve got PGR and Forza etc for good looking car collecting games, and PC sims have come a long way since 2000-2001.

So I dont know how relevant GT5 is to me anymore. Still looks good though!
