and they also have for once summed up the game nicely.
not all of them do actually, theres a lot of murky textures even on many of the premium cars both inside and out.

I also think it's too clinical, like everything is trying to be too perfect to the point where it looks a little fake. The tracks seem bland and almost too clean somehow, and there's small annoyances like the awful flickering shadows to the engine sound not changing when going through a tunnel, something I thought they would nail. It's little things like that that throw the whole illusion of racing off for me.
Meh, I'm sure I'll keep playing
and GT5. The strive for perfection means there is no soul left in the game. Everything just feels very static and boring, it seems like you are almost driving amongst lines of programming code (picture those final scenes in the matrix film), the hunt for realism is going too far in my opinion, it just proves to me that a computer game pushed too far into the hunt for realism/perfection actually never achieves that goal and goes back around the loop again. Reality is not perfect, nor should a game world be made to be so, it just feels so wrong.

Have to agree with Demon though, as much as I enjoy the likes of GT5 and FM3 they are not on a level as PC in terms of outright simulation.
I think the most unforgiving racing sim that I have played is easily Richard Burns Rally, make one tiny mistake and game over. Loved that game, but PD won't do something like this because the full on hardcore market is so niche they would upset about 95% of the players because it would be too hard.
I am going to pick it up today (GT5) and I am going to enjoy it for what it is, a light hearted sim at best. Looks fantastic from what I have seen so far.
Why didn't they put brake upgrades in the game
Not that i'm complaining though
