This PSP version of Gran Turismo is a good choice for those who want a good racing game experience before “Gran Turismo 5” is released later this year.

The games in the Gran Turismo franchise are among the most well known and best racing games available. This time we can enjoy 35 different tracks and a selection of 800 cars. In addition, all of these cars can be uploaded to “Gran Turismo 5” when the new game is released. Unfortunately it is only possible to drive single races. As a result of this, the main challenge is to master all the four levels of difficulty. Graphics and sounds are impressive as usual.

Child suitability:
Gran Turismo is a very realistic and somewhat challenging game. For this reason the game is best suited for children from 7 years. You are given a lot of useful tips on how to maneuver your car, and there are no forms of violence, which makes the game very child friendly.
