    I had absolutely no interest in this game. Racing games are fun and I like Forza, but I have to say I was going to skip this one. Until, I saw this commercial for it while I was watching the Jets game. If this game really looks as good as the footage from this commercial, then damn, I think I will pick that up because the graphics look amazing.

    Hey, guys, I buy games just for graphics too. 
     
    GT5 will be good, but I hope that's not your only reason.

    Were this any other genre, I'd agree. But c'mon, it's a driving simulator.

    Of course, he's the VP of the Add More Awesome department at Sony! 
     
    /sarcasm 
     
    But he did sell me on the game though.

    I thought the whole Kevin Bultler thing would eventually become old, but it still works wonders.

    I support buying GT5 because of the graphics, because it's what we were promised with this generation of HD consoles; 1080p and 60FPS.

    @somejerk: 1080p at 60FPS with bad jaggies and low res textures STILL looks like crap. No matter what game is in question.

    I can take jaggies, low-res textures (when used well - here's looking with a frown at you, Black Ops) and 2D trees. I can't take sub-HD upscaling blur. Which is weird.
