McLaren F1, Nurburgring in 3D Gran Turismo 5 Demo

Gran Turismo 5 January 7th, 2010 by Jordan

The show floor has finally opened up at the 2010 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, and reports of the Gran Turismo 5 demo are starting to come in. According to Motor Trend, there are 12 cars and 4 playable tracks in the latest demo:

“…Toyota FT-86 Concept, ARTA Honda NSX JGTC, Tom’s Lexus SC430 JGTC, Amuse Ericsson Nissan 380RS Superleggera Z33, Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG, Ferrari 458, Lamborghini Gallardo LP550-2 Valentino Balboni, HKS Mitsubishi Lancer, Subaru WRX WRC, Suzuki Swift WRC, Ford Focus WRC, and Nissan GT-R SpecVon – four tracks (Fuji Speedway, Indianapolis 500 Road Course, Nurburgring Nordschleife, and a fictional Tokyo city streets track) were available for play in a terse ‘Event’ mode.”

Our sharp-eyed forum users also caught a glimpse of a road-going version of the infamous McLaren F1 in this video preview of the Sony booth – watch for it during the start of a race on the Nordschleife below. Stay tuned for more pictures and videos from CES as they are released!

    Come to think of it, I like the sound of that, although some peopel have very strange ideas for “matching colours” lol, I can imagine racing online and seeing a bright green viper with blood red upholestry lol

    The bench mark has arrived. I love the Enzo, but now I can see how the two compare.

    Was it a white PORSCHE 911 a few cars behind the McLaren? Does this mean the porshe is finally on Gran Turismo?

    I think it’s great that the Mclaren made it. However, pitting it against the Veyron at the nurburgring will reveal that the F1 would blow it away in handling, which plays a key role in this track.

    I wonder if you can have a tuned Lp550-2…That would be sweet!

    Well… since the Time Trial “demo” they modified the setup for the track map…; I don’t know you guys, but i really prefer the classic (full) one. This one is too forza for me :p (i don’t want to start a rant btw), but the full map is better to know the track than the zoomed one. Luckly we can change it at the settings menu.

    And i hope that Kazunori includes again the great Wiegert Vector W8 that car is a MUST. I don’t care the Jay Leno’s Tank Car (Blastoline Special) :p, i do care the Wiegert… the GT2 Muscles (i miss the Cobra Daytona). Would be nice to have the Pikes Peak cars (not only the Escudo or Cultus, i mean the Celica, the 405, the Quattro, etc).

    And i think that Forza uses the same shaders system as GT 2000 :p

    Looks like rolling starts are still in the game.

    Hopefully with the Mclaren F1 in, we will see the P11 prototype or MP4-12c production car.

    It’s obviously McLaren F1, that slick and effective shape is obvious. Can’t wait to take it on the ride!

    A Tip for all players who are always annoyed by the dumbass reps bugging and shoving you during Gran Turismo matches… Wear EVERYTHING GT! hats, shirts, racing gloves etc. and tell them to f*** off because I want more than 2 minutes and let the noobs behind me whimper because they can’t drive worth a damn. :-D.

    it would be very cool if in GT5 you could choose your interior as well as the outside colour, more like buying a real car

    I wonder if we could use 3D stereoscopic glasses AND head tracking… It will be awesome.

    The sony glasses allow the perception of the depth AND the position the player is looking at. So it enable the possibility to set a correct depth blur.

    The head tracking give the position of the camera so it will be possible the move lightly the head like if you are watching through a window…

    Both together -> your TV screen is a window on the nurburgring :)

      @Joel: This demo won’t be released to the public, it’s only for demonstration of Sony’s 3D technology at the 2010 Consumer Electronics Show.
