The latest iteration of the award-winning Gran Turismo franchise, the series that made racing simulator video games popular, Gran Turismo 6 features the most vehicles and tracks ever in the entire series, even excluding duplicates. The game features a humongous roster of tracks and locations to do some driving on. Multiple disciplines of motor sports are represented from Rally, to FIA GT3, to NASCAR and even (fake) Formula One.
Unique features include driving on the moon, the Goodwood festival of speed, Ayrton Senna challenges and the inclusion of the longest track ever in the series (Sierra). Course maker returns in this game through a companion app that has more in-depth creation than the engine in GT5.
Main criticism of this game comes from the poor audio quality and inclusion of standard models from Gran Turismo 4 on the PS2. Main praise of this game comes from the absolutely ridiculous amount of content included on-disc, far surpassing industry rivals at the time.
Widely regarded as the comparative low-point of the series, critical reception of this title has been warm nonetheless. Agregate review scores leave this game around an A- or low 80%.
Gran Turismo 6 offers long-lasting appeal to those invested in the online community of the game. Through the newly introduced community features, players are able to create clubs to host time trials or racing leagues, post photos taken from the robust in-game photo mode, view other friend's in-game profiles or send messages and control club forums.
Gone is the beloved shuffle-racing from Gran Turismo 5, in it's place is a BoP quick-match feature with various scenarios rotating every two weeks. Seasonal events including single races and time trials are updated at the same frequency as quick matches.
