Gran Turismo 5 fans!! Break the Silence

LOL... many many many games have taken 5+ years to make... its VERY intensive... especially when you wish to model real life cars in real life tracks...do you have any idea how much r&d needs to happen to get every tree and mirror and other minor detail correct? Pro drivers use GT5s tracks to learn when to brake and when to be conservative... they use trees / buildings / land marks alike to learn how to drive their car well on that track... how do you imagine all that research will not take 5 years? I would think just going and gathering the data would take that much time...

Think about it.. they had to scan each and every car to get the models in the highest detail possible... and then they had to drive em around to make sure the car drove exactly as it would in real life (gearing / etc etc etc)...

Not to mention... learning how to make all this **** work on the PS3 HW... its a DAUNTING task... and I am somewhat thrilled it will be here so soon... its not just a game... its a simulator...
