    Is it me or does it sound like the reviewer is just slapping big words together just to sound intelligent. I'm not defending GT5, that's just what the review looks like to me.

    Haha so happy with that score. As soon as I played it at Eurogamer and saw the meh 3D I realised it wasn't going to be a 10/10 game. Oh well, fanboys raging go!

    totally, if you were a real car enthusiast you would buy something other than a prettied up Nissan... ugh.  My sister owns a Nissan and she is a retard. "
    Oh come on.  Nissan makes high quality products, and if I could...I'd trade the G37 for the GT-R.  Nissan makes solid products.

    Yes it is, still the score is due to the fact that the amount of detail is uneven, better towards the best cars, worse in the shitty ones, and the climate conditions don't look as impressive as it could be.

    Nissans are fucking bulletproof, they make some really solid sports cars.

    And to support a statement already made, people who enjoy cars for what they are what can be done with them will love this game. Can the folks with the green tags who came in to basically add nothing kindly screw off.

    @TheHBK:

    The tracks definitely do NOT look amazing. Have you even SEEN the backgrounds?! Quite literally the scenery, horizon, background images and crowds look like cardboard cut outs. I'm not even kidding!

    Yeah. Very solid cars of which the company recalls 2,140,000.

    I'm not surprised that the score is not as high as people had hoped. At the same time though I don't like IGN's reviews normally so I shall wait for a Giant Bomb review before deciding whether or not I really like the look of the game or not. The graphics from the images look pretty nice, though without having played the game I can't really give my own opinion.

    Argh! If your going to base the "Solidness" of Nissan's autos off of that recall, it is very naive. The Japanese Nostalgic Car scene would like to have a word with you, or all the dudes rocking the SR series of Nissan engines.  
     
    As more and more cars are produced and more and more components are shared (part of that recall includes a shared platform with Suzuki) the more recalls we will see from every manufacturer, as we have been.  
     
    Anyways, every company makes shitty models. But on the whole yeah Nissan makes a solid sports car as @yakov456 said.

    " Anyone know why review copies weren't sent out earlier? The game was done, and if it really does get better later on (i have no idea if this is true)  the surely they're shooting themselves in the foot by not making sure that reviewers had a good long time with the game before the reviews went up. "

    They were sent out a few weeks back.  There was just an embargo preventing reviews from being posted until now. "
    Over at Shacknews, Garnett Lee has this to say "Our GT5 review will be little while, though. Our review copy only arrived yesterday. That allowed just enough time to get it installed before the holiday break.", so obviously review copies being sent out "a few weeks back" isn't a universal truth. Probably only a select few reviewers got it early, the ones expected to give a good grade. A good review should make it clear how much time they actually spent with the game.
     
    It should be noted that reviewers have probably been playing (if the were interested) a lot of GT5 at various events long before the review copies went out.

    Yeah, I admit it was a but of a cheap shot and was all in good fun. Some of my favorite cars in GT games are the Skylines, and the 350z is one sexy beast. Even the newer Altimas and Maximas are very nice to look at.

    Gametrailers hasn't reviewed it either. They don't plan to have their review complete until next week, but they didn't get their copy until Monday.
