Then there's Arcade mode, where you can tackle any of the game's tracks in whichever configuration you like, with any vehicle, either as a one-off race, a Time Trial, or a Drift Trial. You can also race in Manufacturer-specific races, hidden away in the Dealership screens, for extra credits. To get that far takes over a dozen hours, and you probably have fewer cars than that in your garage when you do. When you buy a car, it drives out of the dark toward you and brakes suddenly as threatening music plays. Even if you coast through A-Class, S-Class will force you to regroup and work out what all the dials do. You can make real-time performance adjustments during races by assigning custom configurations to buttons on the Sixaxis or Driving Force GT wheel, and a further run of ten S-Class events specifically for tuned cars pushes you harder still, penalising you for ramming or taking shortcuts, in a field of 16 cars just as if not more tricked out than yours.
As the field thickens with Skylines, Imprezas, Mustangs and Ford GTs, you're asked to go further, the AI pushing you harder.Ĭomplete A-Class and you unlock a Quick Tune feature - new for the European Prologue - that lets you adjust weight ratios, aerodynamics, ride heights, camber angles, torque balance, gear ratios and other performance-related settings, with your work graded against a performance index. Initially you're hauling cheap Suzukis and Hondas to the front of 8 to 12-car packs for two or three laps, reinvesting the prize purse in faster cars. 30 race events are split evenly across three classes. We may be 11 million polygons ahead, but we're 650 cars behind.įortunately, Prologue does a lot with the means at its disposal. Being pretty goes a long way, but with 71 cars and just six tracks (High Speed Ring, Daytona, Fuji Speedway, Eiger Nordwand from Gran Turismo HD Concept, Suzuka Circuit and a section of central London), it will have to go a very long way, right? That's not a lot of content, even when you factor in a second variation of each track.
The figure for GT5 Prologue is meant to be higher than 200,000. The average car in Gran Turismo 4 was made up of over 4,000 polygons. Doing things in high definition takes longer.
