A lot is expected of PlayStation 3 exclusive Gran Turismo 5. It’s been a long-time coming, with PS3 gamers thus far having to keep themselves busy with Gran Turismo HD and Gran Turismo 5 Prologue.
The wait isn’t expected to go on for much longer, though, with GT5 now officially confirmed for release in Japan on March 31, 2010.
So, just how good will GT5 look? According to series creator Kazunori Yamauchi, the game will appear “better than reality”.
“‘Better than reality’ – yeah, that’s one way of putting it,” Yamauchi told NowGamer. “In a way, it’s kind of a given that it’s going to look better than reality. The thing about reality is that the criteria for looking “real” are actually a lot stricter and volatile than you’d expect. The way the sun shines, reflects off something, the way it lights scenery – we seldom have the opportunity to see what we consider “reality” under the best and most aesthetically pleasing conditions.”
He added: “When you see a race on television, compared to a race in a game, you realise that the reality isn’t as shiny or pleasant as the game.”
