I definately believe that Gran Turismo set the standard for 3D racing games. There were over 180 cars and 11 tracks to choose from...which makes for an excellent multiplayer experience. Personally, I had a bit of trouble controling the cars (especially on curves) but this is probably due to my inexperience in playing racing games on any Playstation console.

My Breakdown:

What's Good:

- Graphics (excellent for its day)
- A wide range of cars to race and challenge opponents with
- Challenging Tracks

What's Not-So-Good:

- The learning curve for noobies

What's Bad:

- Nothing as far as I can see but I wouldn't really know since I don't play a lot of Racing Simulators

In all, its a classic in its own right and I'm sure many fans of the genre would agree.
