Just reading my GameInformer that came in the mail today, and there was a snippet in the news section that caught me completely off guard, considering GTplanet is usually where I get all my GT info first. I can't find a link to an online article and I don't want to quote it word for word, but here is the good stuff touched on.
Gran Turismo 5
Gets Even More Realistic
..."Damage is an intigral part of racing, and we're taking it to the next level." says studio president Kazunori Yamauchi. ...
...This update gives every player a new garage that just holds two cars - then the fun begins. "Car customization is so realistic that only an actual mechanic could possibly understand what's happening" says Yamauchi.
Gamers who aren't familiar with how cars work can still interact with their vehicles by inspecting the garage floor for mysterious stains and leaks, trying to suss out why the "check engine" light won't stop blinking, and popping the hood to stare impotently at the bewildering mess of an engine. Once their car stops running or gets in a wreck, players must turn to the people on their friends list, asking for a virtual ride to the game's microtransaction-supported repair shop. "We're intent on bringing players the most realistic experience on the market today" Yamauchi insists. "This is what driving is all about."
