If I have understood well, there is not a GT mode like there has been in all the other GT games, but 100+ driving missions and 'single races' where you can earn money? Doesn't seem there will be tuning (other then setup?) options either.
 
I hope we get a demo with the next PlayStation Store update. No matter how basic, I just want to have a go at playing the game! The video of actual gameplay looks amazing, and it seems as though the physics are GT5p style - The car wants to spin unlike the GT4 physics where the car was reasonably difficult to get sidways out of the box...
 
It does look nice for the PSP, I also noticed it has a Standard and Professional settings like GT5P has. I think the physics did get a upgrade over GT4.
 
One feature I think would be great would be being able to use the ps3 controller to play the game. I know it somewhat defeats the point but the more advanced controls would make gameplay a lot more fun.
