Gran Turismo 5 Prologue Launch Party
Posted by guycocker in video games on March 28, 2008
Last night was the UK launch party for Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, and I was on location. The event seemingly existed to show off a lot of expensive cars, including the first UK unveiling of the Nissan GT-R. However, I also played the game itself in one of the custom-built pods, lapping up the Logitech steering wheels and Sony HDTVs. The game launches in Europe today, and you can read my final hands-on preview here. Check out my Flickr for more photos.
