Eurogamer : Gran Turismo review

When it was first announced alongside the PlayStation Portable, Gran Turismo 4 Mobile was a statement of intent. PSP, the videos argued, would be the only handheld for which you could buy games that look and feel like the ones you buy for the home.

The intervening five years, however, which have also seen the game renamed Gran Turismo, have softened its impact considerably. It's tempting to begin by pointing out that while it does look and feel like a racing game you might buy for the home, that also assumes you're referring to the home of 2004.

Just what I expected, so this is worse than Section 8?

People don't pay attention to these reviews, wait for Gamespot or IGN

Edit........IGN gives it a 6.8, Maybe this game isn't good........

[N4G king]

lol @ eurogamer

[DarthTigra]

Ign hates it even more http://n4g.com/psp/NewsPend...

[Elven6]

It seems to be getting mixed reviews so far from he 4-5 reviews I have seen on N4G so far. From the 6s to the 8s.

[Cold 2000]

Wow thats weird why werent u calling this biased: http://www.associatedconten...
Wonder why...

IGN and Eurogamer employees are biased but I guess the guy who wrote that ODST review is the best reviewer ever...

u edited your post, but what I said still stands.

[Sarcasm]

A lack of career mode is disappointing though.

The PSP hardware just wasn't the right platform for the series it seems.

[Silellak]

Why even make a GT game without a career mode? Seriously?

That'd be like Uncharted without a single player mode. YOU JUST DON'T DO IT.

[Sarcasm]

"IGN and Eurogamer employees are biased but I guess the guy who wrote that ODST review is the best reviewer ever... "

Eurogamer is Biased, but it's obvious why GT PSP got that score. No career mode, cumbersome car buying, no upgrades.

It's really a PSP game, and not the full blown GT that was promised.

I guess Flip Mode must have gotten to you with that link if you are now stalking him

[FlipMode]

Did I call IGN Biased? lol Just stop it.

Edited my Post? Yeah I did Before you even commented.

[Sarcasm]

I still don't get what Yamauchi was thinking for making it without a career mode. It's like an RPG where you don't level up or gain EXP. You just run around in circles!

[EvilCackle]

The reviews of Section 8 and GT have different genres, platforms, and possibly writers. Comparing their relative scores is, in a word, silly.

[Gabe EatsWell]

What the..? 7/10? :|

[OmarJA]

7/10 from Eurogamer is pretty good actually, LOL!...

[Gabe EatsWell]

Really? I didn't know that. :)

[Perjoss]

IGN gave it even less than eurogamer (6.8), maybe eurogamer are right this time :)

[Omega4]

I guess everyone will start liking EG more than IGN now

[Mr_Bun]

Is that the best you could do? Troll a review for a PSP game?
LMAO!

[Pizzagaki]

Well, looks like GT psp wont beat Forza3 for sure, lets see how GT5 will do.

Sad thing is, a lot of people bought the psp years ago, because they where looking forward to this game.....

[dustgavin]

I wouldn't be talking too much till Forza 3 gets it's review scores in.

[Pizzagaki]

LOlz, right.
Anyone who played forza2 will know that Forza3 will own.

Forza focuses on gameplay, not quantity.

[SpitFireAce85]

some past review scores from IGN.

PS.To think how desperate you and Omega4 are comparing a PSP game
to a full retail game on a console(XB360).Wow thats low even for
you.As for GT5 it will wipe the floor with all the Forzas put
together

[wazzim]

It's rushed for the PSPGO launch D:!!
GOD even DTM/TOCA (with 4 titels on the PSP) has a carreer mode!

[growup74]

oo man. kinda expected this

[CobraKai]

But i need a big ass tv and digital surround sound for muh gran turismo

[da720izcumin]

that sucks, I genuinely expected this game to be good. I guess in order to fit in all those tracks and cars, together with the amazing graphics they sacrificed other important things...
I hope GT5 doesn't take the same path.

[El Botto]

I havent looked at eurogamer for over 2 years for a reason.

[zootang]

If they give the new Need for speed psp a higher score. It will show their bias

[shopsmartash]

The NFS shift PSP was looking very rough around the edges also, so probably not.
