This really does look better than some of the recent iterations.

Gran Turismo really spoiled other car games for me... I've been on track days and advanced driving courses, so I have a rough idea of how a car should handle. I played some need for speed game recently, and I came stone last on the easiest setting... turns out, braking for the corner was my downfall, you need to mash the throttle around every corner, and this will kick the back of the FWD hatchback out and get around the corner... a pity, but I just can't do these games anymore!
Everyone, over 18, is use to cars the way they are. With a few possible Darwin Award Candidates being the exception nobody tried to take a 90 degree turn at full throttle or expects to hit another car head on and, after doing some impressive mid-air barrel roles, the drive away. Its part of the reason we game, I know how a gun fires, I know that taking a bullet to the head isn't going to give me a 10 second timeout before letting me jump back into the fight in a random location but that doesn't stop me from playing shooters.
If you want to drive according to the laws of physics, and which ever country you live in, then get in a car, go to a track and drive. If you want to watch two lime green koenigsegg ccx collide before flying end over end through the air before continues the race to the thunderous sounds of you friends going "DID YOU FUCKING SEE THAT" then play a game specifically NFS Hot Pursuit since the whole car flipping thing totally happened and as Murph and Grimspoon are my witnesses it was FUCKING AWESOME.
