Nice artistic quality, but lacking in the controls and car performance upgrades.
There are many options for modifying your car, but most of them seem to be cosmetic and not for performance. And when I do change an item on my car to try to improve its performance, I really don't notice much of a difference.
I think this game was leading in the right direction, but failed to make it to the finish line.
I really like the art style, and I think most people bought this game so that they could race against other people online since Gran Turismo does not have that option.
Not a bad game if you find it cheap.
