Ok , here's a quick preview of Gran Turismo on PSP . I've had the game for a while and am quite hooked to it .
GRAN TURISMO PSP FIRST IMPRESSIONS :
With the announcement of a Gran Turismo title on PSP , there has been quite a hype . Polyphony Digital finally decided to work on a PSP Port . The game was released as a launch title for PSP Go . So , enough with the introduction . Let's get along with the details of the game .
When you first start the game , you'll be greeted by the intro cutscenes followed by a lengthy but amazing intro video . After that , at first , you'll be required to buy a start-off vehicle . Gran Turismo on PSP boasts a car list of over 800 vehicles of all types . There are over 35 real as well as fictional race tracks to drive on .
When we talk about Gran Turismo , we instantly come to think of the beautiful visuals that the series has always continued to deliver . However , the same hasn't been the case with the case with this PSP port of Gran Turismo . The graphics are quite good but not as good as originally expected . This may be due to the hardware limitations on the PSP .
The game has three race modes ; Time Trial , Single Race and Drift Challenge . When you start your first race , you'll instantly feel the series' signature realistic driving physics . I must say that the driving physics have been retained from the last games in the series and somewhat improved . The driving physics start to shine when you try out the Drift Challenge Mode . Unlike previous games , drifting in GT PSP is quite fun . Once you get the hang of it , you'll start loving this mode in particular .
The game features a great OST . The sound effects of the vehicles , environments etc. are spot on and add to the realistic effect of the game . The music in the game suits really well to the genre . Every vehicle has a distinct sound . Overall , the sound in the game is quite satisfactory .
<-------->
These are my early impressions of the game . I've managed to spent many hours with the game . And the only disappointments that I've seen so far is in the graphics dept. and lack of race modes and a proper career mode .
My opinions might change as I progress in the game . Expect a full review on the game soon :wink2:
