Beautiful graphics and sound, a true showpiece for the PS3, Solid selection of cars, First online play in a Gran Turismo title, Cockpit view adds a fun new way to play, Great use of the Dual Shock 3, Enjoyable soundtrack
Online play is limited, and is often glitchy, Cant edit soundtrack or add your own, All the events can be beaten in short order, The penalties in the S-class events take much getting used to, Prepare to grind the events for the best cars, Only six tra...
There is much to like about this game, and car enthusiasts will be playing every day until the real deal comes out. The number of nits to pick and issues with the launch are rather high though. Ultimately, GT5: Prologue feels like something that is mea...

Very impressive graphically, especially in HD; strong online game; supports DualShock 3.
Single-player game is short; still too easy to win ugly; cars still dont show damage.
PS3 owners have had every reason to feel owned by their 360 playing counterparts. Microsofts box has been getting a steady stream of top-shelf games, while the PS3 has been the recipient of lesser games and lesser versions of multiplatform releases. G...

Abstract: del.icio.us | Digg This | Glink It Part of the joy of any video-game racing experience lays in the realism of the cars. In that regard, Polyphony Digital has nailed the experience throughout the years of its Gran Turismo franchise, and with the powe...
Abstract: Gran Turismo 5: Prologue is an odd one. It's not a "full" GT game, nor a demo. As a retail product, it sits somewhere in between -- and that certainly makes it difficult to judge. As the first PS3-powered entry in the popular Polyphony-developed racing...
Abstract: Gran Turismo 5: Prologue is a heavy-hitting race simulator offering more than a taste of all the features to come in the final game. Although purely an appetizer, is it worth $40 before the main course?
A technical work of art, Varied lineup of vehicles, Brings 16player online racing to Gran Turismo.
Not nearly enough tracks, Only a prologue to the real thing, Online suffers lag at times, No option to upgrade vehicle parts.
Gran Turismo 5 Prologue may be only a practice lap for the real thing, but its a beautiful joyride while it lasts. ...

Abstract: If Gran Turismo 5 is going to be the real driving simulator, then Prologue could be described as the warm-up lap. Although the game is an astounding technical achievement that looks and sounds nothing short of amazing, its ultimately only a brief tast...
Abstract: The cars’ engines sound sweet, though, and differ according to models – with the more powerful cars having that grunt you’d expect. Bar Lamborghini, McClaren and perhaps, er, Skoda all the major car manufacturers are here. And there is...
