Sounds like an arcade launch type title. Going to be interesting to see the PS4 and drive club vs PS3 and GT6.

I thought this when I first saw the reveal, but after reading this I honestly don't think this game is going to sell that well.

Polygons? Where? Those screenshots are gorgeous. Blurred line between videogames and reality? I say they're going to be obliterated next gen.
