Good score. I do find it strange that in many of the reviews, they seem to crown it the best GT and best console sim racer to date, yet the scores really don't reflect that. The menu system and interface and clunky and at times downright shitty and almost a step backwards from GT4 (like car selection in Arcade mode for instance) and the loading times are indeed quite long but not much worse than GT4 when you install. For me, the bottom line is; problems and issues be damned, the gameplay is just so goddamn solid, both sound, visuals and most of all, the handling and physics.
The score is probably fair, I can see how some aspects of the game would tick people off, I find myself rolling my eyes as well at times and a few things could certainly be better. All in all, I hope people won't bitch too much about this and go play their copy of the game instead.
