After spending a lot of time with GT5 (and getting completely bored with the repetition due to the unforgivable lack of things to do) I set up my old PS2 in the studyroom, hooked up my old DFEX wheel and some speakers and deleted my old GT4 game save to start a new career.
Wow! I didn't know I had missed it so much.. Driving around El Capitan with an old Skyline, pushing an M3 CSL around Coste di Amalfi, rally racing a souped up Impreza on French Alps...
I don't care about the pixelated mess that are the graphics (compared to the HD goodness of GT5). The experience and sense of freedom, and the wealth of things to do makes up for everything and more.
This is what a driving game is all about! Not, the patronizing nanny behavior of GT5, but hundreds of events and car dealerships that let you buy almost everything when you want it, right from the start. And prizecars that are actually useful and desirable.
There's no other way of putting it: compared to the monumental GT4, the only way to describe GT5 is an utter failure, a wasted effort and a trainwreck of a game.
I'm so glad I still have my PS2. Looks like I'm in for some good times again! I'm saving my credits for a 787b... or maybe for an R8 Race Car... I can't decide! But first I'm going to win that RX8 LM Race Car!
