Is It Real Or Is It GT 5?

by Matthew Kato on Jan 12, 2011 at 07:58 AM

The Gran Turismo series has always been known for its graphics, and GT 5 is clearly a great looking title. This latest video from Sony puts the game through its visual paces at one of the world's most demanding tracks – Germany's Nurburgring.

The video below from GTPlanet takes you through various parts of the enormous track, which GT 5 developer Polyphony Digital tried to replicate right down to the inclusion of on-track graffiti. Apart from the visual fidelity, I was also very impressed how the sense of speed in the game is replicated. It even does the overcast-sky-with-mist-in-the-hills vibe pretty well.

Check it out.
