Realism is a keystone of the Gran Turismo franchise. Those in-game cars are so close to the actual machines that GT is more driving simulator, less driving game. But how do the real life locations stack up?
The lighting and perspective don’t always stack up in the comparison screens, but the in-game shoots look accurate. Hey, there’s the Sony Computer Entertainment building!

Wednesday, August 26, 2009 at 4:27 PMIts not a simulator though, hit a wall at 100km/h and keep going? I don’t think so. It’s still a racing game. Go look at GTR evo for a real, full on simulator.

Wednesday, August 26, 2009 at 5:26 PMBy your logic microsoft flight simulator (so realistic its used to train pilots) shouldn’t be a simulator because when your crash your plane just sits on the ground.
But yeah obviously the roads are different because they have been converted into race tracks.
