Let me be clear. I was not wearing anything of games in my caeur early. And before the high price of its attractive Platinum Version, I thought 'why not'.
On entering, one must eat it updates the 11 sets (not mandatory, but highly recommended) a longer 3GB ... So I removed half a star for that, because when you leave a Platinum release, least we can do is to install updates a day of games on Blu-Ray.
Then, it says '' We will do a small part of that history to leg '' and a loading time of circuits worthy of PS2. Only way to escape it, install the games (8GB or more and less hard disk) and thus have to wait some minutes.
In the end I had to spend my morning to watch a screen with a small bar, I could not play that afternoon, therefore, a half star less.
For the games itself, it is very good, subsidies are available for beginners (that is to say me ^^) and as a measure, the aim is to remove little by little until that 'there is more. The sensations are well, the behavior of cars also, there are way to find driving style (rather drift, or own curve) and change according car ...
Snapshot is also beautiful, the result of a meeting gives a sublime result, so much so that it asks if it is not a true picture ... And that's exactly the problem, the photo mode is too good. Wish I could have the same fidelity of detail picture on the track, because we say so what, GT5 is sometimes very ugly.
Take the example of the Le Mans circuit, very well done, a good restitution of bitumen crude can certain location. That of London is not bad either, animations make the viewer all alive. Now the contrary, the French Riviera circuit (or Monaco if you will) This is a horror, especially when it happens in the famous tunnel, looking at the water, BERK, just a blue thing which contrasts another lighter blue stuff. No water effect, nor depth, the port is a cry, in short, very, very ugly. So I agree that during a race was no time to look at the scenery (albeit sometimes with 20 second ahead were it to do) but the inequality, for games that also asked long, it should not exist.
And there is also the famous shadow GT5 in the heads of developers, shadows must be staircase (yes, the world of video games is strange) it gives a baeuf effect, making further lower the graphic quality GT5 compared to its competitors. For that I take off a star.
Finally, you'll understand. GT5 is not flawless, but it remains his greatest quality, grip is when we put a wheel in GT5, it's hard to win. For 21, it's a purchase that this must be done for all car fan. I only give maybe 3 star, but he remains a shot caeur for me who had never done in a 1km simulation games.
