Gran Turismo 5 is not as good as its predecessors! It gets an 82 in Metacritic, and that's very low for a Gran Turismo game.

http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/ps3/granturismo5prologue?q=gran%20turismo%205

Gran Turismo got 96.

http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/psx/granturismo?q=gran%20turismo

Gran Turismo 2 got 93.

http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/psx/granturismo2?q=gran%20turismo%202

Gran Turismo 3 got 95.

http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/ps2/granturismo3aspec?q=gran%20turismo%202

Gran Turismo 4 missed the mark of excellence, and got 89.

82... Wow... That's definitely not bad. I mean, it's a good score, but for a Gran Turismo game, it's definitely a let down, and it's definitely no masterpiece.

Well, I guess we'll have to scratch Gran Turismo 5 off of the Playstation 3's redemption list. That's okay. We still have Metal Gear Solid 4, and Final Fantasy 13, to redeem the Playstation 3. However, I don't think they will stay exclusive, but you never know.

Compare apples to apples please. This is a Prologue, and the last prologue has a metacritic score of 70, so GT5P is actually far better.

If you can't see the difference then I'm afraid I just can't help you and you can just continue with your faulty analysis.

Umm this isn't the actual GT5...but a prologue(a demo that gives a little taste to you of the real game, plus a little extra cash for Sony)

This is what you should be comparing it to...
