December 17, 2009 - It's been a long time coming, but Gran Turismo 5 is almost upon us. While we got a glimpse of the series on the PS3 in the form of Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, it's become more apparent that Prologue will not be indicative of what'll be in the final game. From damage to better visuals to a completely redone physics and driving engine, what we're going to see next year (March in Japan, TBD in North America) will be something entirely brand-new.

We're now getting our first taste of the real Gran Turismo 5 with the release of the Gran Turismo 5 Time Trial Challenge, a free demo (of sorts) that's now available worldwide. While damage isn't turned on and builds at TGS and Gamescom have been better in terms of showing off its visual prowess, the Time Trial Challenge allows us to try out the new driving physics, and man, this thing handles like a dream.

Unlike the silky-smooth cockpit experience of Prologue (and basically every GT release before it), this latest offering gives us a look at the rougher, tougher Gran Turismo 5. Your view from behind the steering wheel (which is really how it's meant to be driven) now jostles and jumps as imperfections in the road instantly work their way from the tires and shocks to your virtual pelvis. It's not as flagrant as it is in the likes of Need for Speed Shift, but it's certainly handled well and way better than any previous GT release.

The highlight here though is the tire-to-road handling. The stock and tuned Nissan 370Zs (your only two options in the trial) bite, lunge and roll in response to every steering input in a way that really hasn't been seen in the series before. If you oversteer a little at high speed and then correct your heading with a slight adjustment of the wheel, you'll not only see but feel the car jerk back a bit as the weight shifts and it grips the road properly again. It's very noticeable if you pay attention to this sort of thing, and its inclusion forces you to take into account just one more characteristic that's sure to be unique on every ride, which is great.

Steering is touchier now as well, but in a good way. The smoother but longer steering adjustments have been replaced by quicker motions on the wheel, allowing you to dig into a turn and even intentionally oversteer to swing the back end out a fair bit easier.

Granted, the game is locked to the Professional driving setting, so these characteristics and more "demanding" steering input may be lessened in the Standard setting in the final version, but I honestly couldn't see myself going back at this point. In the past, Professional always seemed to be a bigger challenge and more realistic, but I'm not sure that, for me, it was more fun on a core level than the Standard setting. Now, however, I'm definitely sticking with Polyphony's physics tour-de-force as it now feels as fun as it does challenging.

The tuned 370Z is a beast on the track.
In terms of graphics, this isn't the showpiece for the game that some folks have been expecting. Perhaps it's because it's a relatively flat and bland course (though that's true to life for this track) rather than featuring lots of buildings and roadside stuff to show off the lighting system, but outside of the cars (which look great), there isn't a lot to see.

Still, that's not the point here, and I love what I've played. The new driving model is, from what I can make of it right now, phenomenal. It'll take some time with another few dozen cars to see how it holds up across multiple vehicle models, but if this is a sign of what's to come, Polyphony has outdone itself.

2009年12月17号-已经等了很久了，GT5终于逼近我们了。当我们在ps3上短暂的感受了GT5序章时就知道，GT5最终版将远不止如此。从车损到更好的视觉效果到完全从新制作的驾驶物理引擎，我们将看到的是一个全新的GT5。

我们现在可以通过全世界范围内最新发布的，免费的GT5 demo时间挑战赛尝个鲜儿。车损和最炫的视觉效果没有包括在这个demo中，但是时间挑战赛demo可以让我们尝试最新的驾驶物理引擎。梦幻般的处理效果！
不像序章中光滑如丝般的效果，最新的demo看起来很粗糙。用方向盘玩儿,轮胎瞬间的撞击和颠簸还有虚拟驾驶感不太理想。不像NFS shift那么明显，但是操控感的确很好，远远超过之前任何一作。

最牛逼的部分是轮胎和路面的路感。尼桑370Z普通版和改装版（在demo中只有这两种可以选），游戏方向盘输出的冲刺和转向回馈是前作中从没有过的。如果你在高速中有点儿转向过度，然后通过方向盘做一个轻微的调整，将不仅能看到并且清晰的感受到汽车回馈重量的变化，然后再次抓住路面。值得注意的是，这将使你在驾驶中多考虑一种特性，每次驾驶都是独特的，太棒了！

转向控制很灵敏，但是恰到好处。平滑但是更长时间的转向调整，被更快的方向盘反应所取代。可以使你更刻苦钻研转弯，你可以故意转向过度，让甩尾变得更容易。

demo版只设有专业驾驶级。因此在最终发售版中可能会设置标准的驾驶模式，让玩家熟悉这些新特性和更高的转向技巧。说实话，我觉得没什么必要。在前作中，专业模式是更高的挑战，更加真实。就我个人而言，我觉专业级比标准级更有意思。反正不管怎么样，我肯定是玩儿专业级去享受挑战的乐趣。

在画面方面，这个demo肯定不是一些人期待的典范。可能是因为画面相对某些游戏而言较为平淡，没有弄一大堆路边风景和建筑去炫耀光影系统。反正除了车，就没啥可看的了。
这不是重点，反正我玩儿着感觉很好。这个物理模型对于不同的车的影响，还需要更长时间对更多车的考察才能确定。就目前而言，已经超越前作了！
