As authentic as it gets, Layers of assists to ease in new players, Realistically hard with assists turned off, Visually stunning (especially the rain effects)
Off-the-track activities are half-heatedly implemented
You’ll have to start with one of the lower rung teams, and work your way up from there. Unless you turn up the assists and lower the difficulty, you won’t be securing too many podium finishes at the start of your career, and you’re not expected to eith...

Abstract: With the impending arrival of Gran Turismo 5 later this year, it's very easy for people to overlook other racing games in the genre. Developer Codemasters begs to differ by releasing a new racing title that you can not ignore. With its high speed pace ...
