Gran turismo 6 ps3 review
GT6 also has an arcade mode where players can quickly play a selection of cars on any of the game’s tracks. Objective-based bonus races are offered throughout the career mode and offer a nice change of pace from the standard race events. New series become available as players earn the required number of stars. The career mode is laid out in a relatively linear fashion but it has enough flexibility to allow players to choose races in any sequence. Only when you do this do you begin to experience the unique characteristics of each car. If you race with the line on, daring to brake a little later or take a more aggressive line through a corner will reap rewards.
The suggested racing line, which you can turn off of course, seems to be the line the AI cars follow. Forza’s Drivatar system, while ambitious, can be a real source of frustration, especially on tight track. While GT6’s AI still is little more than a parade procession, the tracks are wide enough to allow for some excellent wheel-to-wheel racing, especially when you are playing with friends. Just give me an option to head to the next race silly! Instead you have to back out of each test to the menu screen, resulting in annoying load times that could have been avoided. You cannot progress from one test to the next from the results screen. Especially the first ones (I didn’t play GT5 so I don’t know if there is any game save carry over that allows you to skip any of these), which cover such novice topics they are merely an annoyance. Regardless, when compared to what a game like Forza 5 offers in this area the amount of tracks in GT6 is still impressive.Ī staple of the GT series, license tests are nothing more than an annoyance for seasoned players. The 70+ tracks are really just various configurations of a set of tracks totaling less than half that amount. To a certain extent the same goes for the number of tracks included in GT6. Case in point, I counted no less than 33 variations of the Mazda Miata. The 1200+ cars advertised as included in the game are impressive, yes, but when you realize there are multiples upon multiples of certain car models that figure becomes far less substantial. On the box, GT6’s vehicle and track “stats” immediately command your attention. For race fans who still use the PS3 as their primary gaming console you are not going to want to miss this one.
GRAN TURISMO 6 PS3 REVIEW PS4
I don’t yet have a PS4 in my house (I will though when my wife isn’t looking) so it is nice to see the PS3 get support like this.
GRAN TURISMO 6 PS3 REVIEW INSTALL
Despite the PS4’s excellent sales numbers there is still massive install base of PS3’s out there. Comparisons are inevitable despite the cross-generational gap. With the next-gen upon us, and games like Forza 5 available, scoring GT6 has its difficulties.
GRAN TURISMO 6 PS3 REVIEW FULL
Ever since its main competition Forza entered the fray the GT series has seemed, to me, to be a step behind especially with its lengthy delays for it to appear in full and proper form on the PS3. While Gran Turismo may have pioneered the sim-racing on consoles, the genre has come along way since the original GT debuted on the *gasp* original PlayStation.
