No Tweaking it's Arcade Mode only!

I bought this game with intentions of having an awesome time with it. Gran Turismo is fun mainly for the reason that you can upgrade your cars with different parts and such. This game allows you to do nothing but buy new cars. No tweaks to cars no changing cars up at all. To me this game is totally worthless. I gave it 3 stars because the graphics are outstanding but... Gran Turismo to me is swapping turbos/engines/tires/suspensions. This allows none of that. I wish i would have just waited for the full game.
Like paying to be a Beta tester

This won't shock anyone, but GT Prologue is gorgeous. The game looks great. No damage though, which is unforgivable given the power of the hardware. It gives the game a sterile feel compared to most every other modern racing game.
The AI is as good as previous versions of GT, in other words, it's horrendous. Want to win? Bump your way to the finish line....it's becoming the series trademark. Again, this is unforgivable.
Online options are sparse and the net code is poor. Online is buggy to the point of being broken, which is shocking, since the closest competiton to this game (Forza) has released two iterations since GT4 that each offered creative new additions to expand the online modes.
The Physics feel the same as GT3 & 4. Like the past games and Forza, this isn't the most true life simulation. The best simulation of driving I've seen is still Sega's Ferrari F355 Challenge. Still, most people don't want that...too much realism can be frustrating, and GT:P offers a decent balance here.
IMO, Prologue is another word for Beta. This is $40 demo, and just isn't worth the price. There are better options.
Pretty good, but less engaging than previous versions

I've played all versions of Gran Turismo and have very much enjoyed the improvements as the new versions came out. I miss being able to upgrade and customise each rides, What I also miss are the CARS! where are all the Toyotas? cars from the 80s and the 90s???????
Great game for all family!

I thought that video games was something for kids and teenagers. I found out I was wrong with Playstation 3 and this game. The virtual reality is awesome and the game is very easy to use.
Great graphics, same driving experience

I used to own one of the GT for Playstation 2. And I think that while the graphics are mind-blowing, the driving experience has not changed at all.
Some reviews already point out that the game is pretty much the same as its predecessors, but with a lot more of eye candy. I agree. So don't expect car damage, and any other 'game immersion' features from other less graphical games.
Good game for starting your collection for your Playstation 3. Don't pay more than $20 for it though.
