The most realistic driving game out to date. Should be classed in the "simulation" genre rather than racing because of this. This is the second Gran Turismo on the PS2 and you will notice better graphics from the start.

I particularly like the missions in career mode where you are given a car and another car to beat, or a time to beat. Whilst earning money to buy new cars, i woudnt give up trying to complete each mission as it was that addictive. The ...  Read the complete review
