The rating might make this game a hard press to buy now, but I read some of the 1 star reviews, and don't agree with alot of them. I think people just aren't good racers, and are expecting a nfs style experience, and I say, all the power to them. There are alot of races that don't pay alot, but if you look around a bit, there are races you can tune towards, to get credits fast enough in the beginning of the game. I had at least 15 cars, with a few corvettes, after the first day of playing.
I've really been enjoying the new dual sense feature on the controller, while driving. Hydroplaning at 200 mile an hour, 30 seconds ahead of the competition through a rainstorm, was a hell of allotta fun, and seemed very realistic. With a day to night cycle, that affects the temperature of the road, makes this a definite advancement in the series, alone. With more cars available than previous installments, where would you be going wrong?
A definite must buy, if your into the gt series already. There could be some more real tracks, with dlc, hopefully. Maybe a couple dousen more cars? Who knows? If they care enough about their audience, and are reading reviews themselves, im sure the game will remain enjoyable
