Insert the disc into the console of a title such as delayed Gran Turismo 5 has a strange effect, but after so much waiting for a sequel of the most coveted by owners of PlayStation 3 has arrived, bringing with him a load of expectations almost impossible to bear for any product . The promises made by Polyphony Digital are not few, but highly conservative nature of the franchise has not been slow to reveal itself. The new born Yamauchi arrives with arrogance and focuses on features that have made him the object of desire of millions of fans, although the formula fails to take off a dust that accumulated in the five years away from the market.
Sony AI and Polyphony Digital announced the global release of Gran Turismo Sophy 2.0, an innovative AI racing agent in the Gran Turismo 7.
Between Sophy and PSVR 2, Polyphony is REALLY pushing videogames forward into a whole new era.
"Gran Turismo has to run on the PlayStation 5, and that means Sophy cannot consume all the computing resources of the machine."
Interesting - I thought at first Sophy was controlled from their server farms. Seems like they've got it running locally.
Remon: "I didn't expect Gran Turismo 7 to be the most relaxing and soothing game on Playstation VR2 . Yes, it's a high speed racing game with extremely realistic physics. But for me, next to Tetris Effect Connected, it's become the most meditative PSVR 2 experience. What's even more surprising is that Gran Turismo 7 in PSVR 2 doesn't make me sick despite its high speeds.
Gran Turismo series producer Kazunori Yamauchi spoke to me via video chat to discuss why the GT7 feels so enjoyable to drive and what inspired his design choices."
I was very careful not to push myself when i first popped GT7 in VR, by limiting myself to 30 min sessions. I got sick from Drive Club VR. Surprisingly, even after hours of playing on a Gr 3 race, I don’t get sick now.
Because the nature of GT games. The game and the camera is static as ever, and it very usable and a prefect way to play racing game with long sessions in VR.
Polyphony Digital CEO Kazunori Yamauchi shares a personal message to celebrate this momentous milestone.
Wow 25 yrs just like that. Feels like only yesterday I was amazed by the first one.
So what's the verdict? Three days in — and with many more days left to go — I have to say that while Gran Turismo 5's driving dynamics are better than any other racing game on the market, Forza Motorsport 3's nipping closely at its heels*. And given some of the latter's better (and more clearly labeled) vehicular upgrade options, smoother interaction with AI vehicles, and GT5's installation "challenges" (like a 133 MB required update to make multiplayer mode somewhat usable), Forza Motorsport 3 provides a much more compelling option for a car enthusiast looking to jump into a realistic and entertaining video racing game.
But, if you want to lose yourself for days in the most utterly realistic yet overly-complex driving game ever, pausing only to defecate, urinate, sleep and eat (in no particular order), buy Gran Turismo 5.
Or, do what I did. Buy both.
