VIDEO: Gran Turismo PSP footage gets out
Gran Turismo for PSP Go demo: Click above to watch video after the jump
Fans of Gran Turismo are rejoicing over the fifth edition of the legendary racing series that was shown at the E3 gaming expo last week. The world-renown racing sim will also debut a new version for the Sony PSP Go this October, and it It boasts 60 frames-per-second rendering, 800 cars, 35 tracks and the ability to play against three friends over wi-fi – pretty good specs for a portable game.
Last week we showed you a trailer of GT5 for the decidedly non-portable PS3, and now we've got actual running footage of the portable game being played. Hit the jump to view a Nissan GT-R taking on all comers in the newest and smallest edition to the Gran Turismo franchise. You can also see some sweet screen shots of the new GT by viewing the gallery below.

Yeah, this game looks really sweet. I hope its playable on the PSP-2000 as well, cuz I'd hate to have to buy a new PSP just so I can play this game.. the person playing in the video is pretty terrible tho..

Some one should tell him/her that they are not playing Ridge Racer!

of course it'll play on any PSP. the PSP-Go isn't the PSP2, its just a new PSP SKU

216 is right. No need to buy a new PSP. ALL PSP's are the same inside. No need to buy the PSP GO just to play this one game.
BTW, game looks really good for a PSP title, super smooth. Cannot wait for this game.

A five year old can drive better than that.

That guy is on awful, awful driver. On one corner, he turned in from the inside of the corner and hit the brakes right before he hit the wall. Doesn't work like that, champ. Though, one thing that concerns me is that the GTR is sliding all over the place - despite the terrible driving, shouldn't AWD vehicles be much more prone to understeer than oversteer? It seems like it's losing the back end unrealistically easily, kind of the Forza games have historically had a problem with. I hope it's just a result of the guy overusing the E-brake or something.
Graphics are great though, it's been a few years, but Sony finally put on an E3 presentation that's actually going to sell consoles. Both GTs are looking even better than expected.

No, it`s because there are no analog buttons for brakes and gas, just on/off.

Well, in that case, there should be something that compensates for driving with only digital controls. If there's no way to provide analog gas/brake controls, the game shouldn't handle as if analog inputs are expected.

It's a game...
Rhawb 12:48PM (6/10/2009)
Yes it is...

A real driving simulator features analog buttons for gas and brakes. A fully fledged Gran Turismo SHOULD include analog gas and brakes. This game does not feature analog gas and brakes. People who like GT4 and/or Forza will undoubtedly feel as if they lost a LOT of control of the cars in this game. For those of us who care about vehicle dynamics know that you never apply 100% brakes when entering a corner, you have to be gentle about it or you`ll lock up the brakes and lose control. Same thing applies when exiting a corner except that you`ll end up over spinning the tires and will lose control of the vehicle. A real driving simulator this is not. This game is also not a fully fledged Gran Turismo.

Gran Turismo, of all racing games, would probably the worst to play on the PSP. I can't stand playing racing games with the buttons for accel and brake instead of the analog, and without the second analog it seems like it would be a pain in the ass since GT especially would require more than just full throttle and hard brake.

Can't believe the new PSP-GO is $250 and it won't even play your UMD games. PSP was/is really nice, but they totally dropped the ball w/ the PSP-GO....
