Gran Turismo 5 Cars on the Streets of Paris

Now that the Gran Turismo 5 has finally been launched and everyone seems to think that the game has been worth the wait, there's nothing stopping Sony and Polyphony Digital from enjoying the ride.

To celebrate the launch of the game and make sure that everybody knows this, the creators of the game staged a major publicity stunt on the streets of Paris. At one point, out of nowhere, a very interesting display of vehicles which, by the way, are also featured in the game, have been unleashed on Champs Elysees.

Before moving on an watching the video featured below, we'll remind you a bit what the GT5 is all about. Exclusively developed for Playstation 3, the game bring to life perhaps the most comprehensive collection of racing modes and cars.

No less than 1,000 cars (800 standard and 200 premium) will be racing against each other on 35 courses designed in more than 60 layouts. In addition, the game offers a various functionality features, such as Ad hoc multiplayer races and trading or sharing cars, enabling players to explore a new range of communication methods.

If all of the above, combined with the video below, aren't enough to convince you, as a promise of what the game has to offer, here's what Kazunori Yamauchi, the main name behind the game, has to say about the franchise.

“Gran Turismo might just have become my life. Making Gran Turismo is a lot of fun, really, though maybe I’ve missed out on a lot of things by working so hard on Gran Turismo.”
