Gran Turismo Series

With the release of Gran Turismo Sport just days away, the marketing for the game is in full force. Everywhere we look we see ads spring up — but, that might just be because we spend all our time looking at sim racing content. One recent ad in particular struck us right in the nostalgia center.

At a recent Gran Turismo Sport keynote address during Barcelona Games World in Spain, Gran Turismo creator Kazunori Yamauchi revealed his favorite GT titles. The list is not what you might expect — though the game at the top may not be a big surprise. He ranks the games from worst to best.

With less than four days remaining until the release of GT Sport, the full trophy list is now available.

The latest PlayStation video gives us a short six-minute retrospective of the Gran Turismo franchise. Naturally, it features series creator Kazunori Yamauchi, but plenty of other big names under the Sony umbrella make appearances, too.

Although we’ve known for two years that GT Sport will be an online-focused title, for many the offline experience is just as important.

Those of you still having fun on the GT Sport demo may have already noticed that, despite being past its end date, it hasn’t quite finished yet.

Three-time Formula One World Champion Lewis Hamilton may be well on his way to his fourth title, but he’s taking some time out to help Gran Turismo fans.

Gran Turismo series creator Kazunori Yamauchi has taken to Twitter to address the connectivity issues in the GT Sport demo.

Amongst all the positive impressions coming from the GT Sport demo, there has been an unfortunate revelation. If you want to save progress during a GT Sport play session, you must be connected to PlayStation Network.

This week’s GT Sport demo has confirmed that visual damage exists within the game. Players have spotted the cosmetic deformities that can happen to cars during collisions in gameplay. It’s existence hasn’t been outright shown by Polyphony Digital in promotional footage but many images and videos prove it does indeed exist.

It’s a discussion that comes up time and again. Some people will swear up and down that the only way to get realism from a driving game is to use a steering wheel and pedals. After all, no-one drives a real car with a PlayStation controller, right?

Back in May 2016, we got our first look at the Peugeot Vision GT car. The Peugeot L500 R HYbrid was exactly the kind of madness we expected. Now, for the launch of Gran Turismo Sport, Peugeot is updating the L500 with a newer version dubbed the “L750 R HYbird”.

As morning broke yesterday in the UK, a new “Gran Turismo” experience fell into the hands of thousands. The GT Sport demo has been unleashed onto the public, bringing with it a preview of a “new era” for the franchise.

With the Gran Turismo Sport demo now upon us, there has been much discussion surrounding the latest taster of Polyphony Digital’s PS4 racer.

Following last week’s surprise announcement, GT Sport’s four day demo is now live and playable.

Polyphony Digital gave eager players a small gift this weekend. While the features of the new limited-time GT Sport demo won’t go live until tomorrow, the game will still load up before that.

The surprise announcement of a new GT Sport demo is a very exciting development. Previously, only those invited to the closed beta phases got the chance to go hands on but that will change next week.

Earlier in the week, we got our first look at the complete GT Sport car list.

In the latest information blowout for Gran Turismo Sport, Polyphony Digital has released a full rundown on the game’s centerpiece, Sport Mode.

Well that’s a welcome surprise. The Gran Turismo Sport demo is now available for pre-load in certain regions, and while the features are still locked until Monday morning, the in-game “Attract Mode” videos have revealed some goodies early.
