Movie Review Gran Turismo - An Unexpectedly Great Racer
A Gran(d) Surprise
When PlayStation Productions launched, we’d bet money that Gran Turismo wasn’t on your TV/movie bingo card. Uncharted? Of course. Twisted Metal? Surprising but makes sense. A movie about a famed racing simulator? That one, admittedly we here at
Soapbox A Racing Wheel Taught This Arcade Die-Hard the Joy of Gran Turismo 7
Stephen finally gets it
An all-time favourite game of mine is Burnout 3: Takedown. The launch title I bought alongside my PS3 was MotorStorm. The outside chance of a new Ridge Racer is what gets me out of bed in the morning. Well, I mean, that last one's an exaggeration, but Bamco, it's time. Come on. The point is, I love arcade racing games, and I...
Poll What Review Score Would You Give Gran Turismo 7?
Podium place?
Gran Turismo 7's been out for a good couple of weeks now, and you know what that means! Sony's latest driving simulator was met with glowing reviews just before launch, but it's fair to say that the PlayStation exclusive has had to endure a rough road since. We gave the game a hugely positive 9/10 in our Gran Turismo 7 PS5 review,...
First Impressions Gran Turismo 7 on PS5, PS4 Looks Like the Biggest and Best Yet
The posh coffee of sim racers
Gran Turismo creator Kazunori Yamauchi doesn’t just love cars – he worships them. Addressing media as part of a virtual presentation earlier this week, the industry veteran appeared to express sadness that younger generations may not share the same level of passion that he has for the automotive industry. His...

Hands On How Does Gran Turismo Sport Fare with PlayStation VR?
Ups and downs
Around about a year ago, we hopped inside Gran Turismo Sport’s cockpit with a PlayStation VR headset on and walked away somewhat unimpressed. We felt that the game looked fine in virtual reality – better than DriveClub VR, we commented at the time – but we weren’t exactly blown away, especially after seeing the title running in...
Feature DriveClub Is An Alternative to Gran Turismo Sport Worth Considering
How fast do you wanna go?
Gran Turismo Sport launches this week, and it will snatch the PlayStation 4 racing game baton from DriveClub with little resistance. Evolution Studios’ simcade didn’t enjoy the best start to its short life, being driven out of the PS4’s launch window before releasing in a particularly sorry state. But the British...
Hands On Behind the Wheel of Gran Turismo Sport
On track?
Are we allowed to write about this? Gran Turismo Sport's closed beta agreement terms specifically stipulate that the server stress test can't be talked about, but video platforms are filled with footage and public forums are chatting pretty openly about the racer. Hmm, for the purposes of this hands on preview, let's just pretend that...
Video Does Gran Turismo Sport Look Better on PlayStation VR Than DriveClub?
Yes, it does – on PS4 Pro, anyway
Evolution Studios clearly worked incredibly hard on DriveClub VR, but the results are… Not great. The defunct developer did a great job shoehorning the entire original onto PlayStation VR, but the headset just couldn't match the studio's ambition, balancing crystal clear dashboards against blurry circuits. It's...

Feature The Road to Gran Turismo 6
The evolution of the real driving simulator
Even when Polyphony Digital president Kazunori Yamauchi was working on slapstick PSone racer Motor Toon Grand Prix, the luminary had driving simulators in mind. The internally developed title, which was undeniably inspired by the success of Mario Kart, was built with a casual audience in mind, but the...
