Of course, things are looking up, with such rosey-looking games on the horizon as Metal Gear Solid 2, Devil May Cry and Dark Cloud on the horizon, things are really starting to look up for Sony's console. Well, the first game in what is to be an onslaught of quality titles over the next few months, the long-awaited Gran Turismo 3 has just hit the shelves in the land of the rising sun. I don't know where to begin. Dependant on the time of day, glare can be seen from the cars headlights. All cars have their own specific engine noises.
Dust trails evaporate at a realistic speed.
Just look at the screenshots, they speak for themselves. If you brought an elderly relative or idiot friend into your room while a replay of GT3 was playing, they'd have trouble believing it wasn't the real thing. It really is that realistic. A good deal of the realism comes from the car models. 150 cars appear in the game, each beautifully modelled, each instantly recognisable.
