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........

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.

A lack of career mode is disappointing though.

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

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.

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 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!

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

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.....

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

Forza focuses on gameplay, not quantity.

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

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