Even more fun is the complete lack of AI in GT5 compared to Forza 3:

inb4 sofik comes in talking his usual shit.
I'm having a lot of fun with GT5 and i just purchased my GTR specv as well.

2 head-on collisions have resulted in 0 damage for me. In both cases I was drivng between 200 and 210 mph. Fun stuff. Seriously, I love that Gran Turismo is back in my life.

That was an unfair test however.
It was a BMW driver that didn't care about the other car in its way.
That's working as intended.
It looks like Polyphony didn't set the car's physics modifier to only work ON the grass and instead it elevates ABOVE the grass. Small bug, but with a big effect.

@MOO: Hahahahaha. It's cool that it's getting appreciated somewhat. I actually felt bad for that team considering people have been waiting for what feels like forever, then it got some bad rep. I know a lot of my co-workers are racing fans and they love GT but aren't happy with GT5 at all.
For me this just really shows that this game should not have been awarded a 10/10. Don't get me wrong i love me some GT5, but i just seems like bad practice to give a game a perfect score when it clearly isn't... perfect.
if 10/10 implies that the game is the pincale of excellence then what would the score have been if the AI was great and the crashes actually were flawlessly realistic? 10/10 again?

Wait wait wait.....that looked only slightly better than a crash from the original Gran Turismo.
Not to...you know, be the one to say this but...what the hell HAVE they been doing for 6 years? Did they just take the old GT, polish the hell out of that turd, then add more cars?

Good thing they didn't subtitle the Gran Turismo series as "The Real Crashing Simulator." I would have wanted my money back.
Racing vehicles are built for aerodynamics. They use the force of the wind to keep the vehicle on the ground. Once the wheels lose contact with the ground, the rules change. Something that's built to stay down has a tendency to stay up once you flip it over. The video above may be a slightly more extreme case of this, but a quick search of YouTube shows that the floatiness of the car is actually not that ridiculous.

I does not look "light", this in fact may be realistic if we do not forget that this car does not take damage. It is a rigid body that does not suck up the impact energy by getting it parts falling off. So the lack of damage is unrealistic but at the same time it is probable that an indestructible car would behave like this.

ihaveascreenname is right, the actual flipping didn't look that unbelievable. Cars, being made to not fly, can do some very odd things when they leave the ground. The unrealistic part was the lack of damage. I'm curious what level this guy was, and if car damage had been unlocked.
I'll never understand why PD doesn't have the stones to let these cars get fucked up. Five installments and we only now have collision damage, but its like a getting nicked while shaving.
Its no wonder then that the NASCAR sim isn't full-on, because then they really would have to include some real crash physics.

LMAO GT5 getting its Metacritic reviews removed. Looks like someone isn't happy with the scores its getting
Next you're going to tell me that there are no real life driving tests where you drive in a straight line and stop. I WON"T HEAR IT!
i'm really hoping the gran turismo 5 reviews thing on metacritic is a glitch
otherwise if someone's really asking them to pull reviews, that would be a bit of a PR blow

Pretty sure this is why there's no damage in the video.
I just hope this guy doesn't drive like that in online games. That would really make me rage.
Just saying.

8.4 is hardly a bad score. Perhaps it's because so many reviews were incomplete, with many reporting erroneously that there is no car damage in GT5.

@pokota
I never said 8.4 was bad.
and car damage isn't just one of the minus points in the less than perfect scores given by some reviews. No need to get so defensive everytime someone talks a tad negatively about Sony and its games ya know.

Car damage is available from the beginning. Then again, i haven't reach that level yet

If this was a Road Rage, or a Marked Man event from Burnout Paradise then I'd be pretty disappointed. Luckly it's Gran Turismo.
I might have some gripes with GT5, but the damage isn't one of them. There isn't a single sim racer that does it perfectly. Even the damage in Grid (which is the racing sim that does it best in my opinion) is far from perfect.

The critic reviews for Donkey Kong Returns are also out, so don't think Sony is going around telling Metacritic to remove reviews, grow up people. I have GT5 and I laughed when I saw this video and I am still going to play it later. Stop being trolls and enjoy your games people.
@TheHeartlessNoob
Even DKR? Thank fucking god for that.
And no one said not to enjoy their games here ^___^

@the guy with the hat
now now. That's not fair. You can't say a nary word of negativity on GT5 or i'm calling you a troll. Its not PD's fault, the reviews were incomplete. And you don't crash in races, especially in GT5, you're doing it wrong.

how many games have crashes that can actually flip the car? Most of these racers have them cemented to the track.
@Gene Eric
I'm not sure what you mean. I wasn't being defensive at all, I just found it unlikely Sony would complain about an 8.4 score. I actually believe Metacritic worked the way it should, this time, with a cumulative score that is probably about right.
Personally, visible damage means nothing to me. Actual mechanical damage is what I'm interested in, provided that it's somewhat forgiving of minor bumps. I'm hopeful about that patch.
