Gran Turismo 5

The only thing that drastically hinders this game from being everybody%26rsquo;s dream simulator is the continuing lack of a damage model. You have these fantastic, photo-realistic visuals, insanely detailed car setup options and amazing physics - but slam into another car and you bounce off each other like solid wooden blocks.

What makes it even more astonishing is that you get this solid-as-a-rock framerate without the loss of detail that most other games endure when they want to hit the 60fps mark. The cars look incredible. Picture perfect, even. All the detail is there, right down to the lines in the plastic covering the headlights. There are 16 of these high-poly bad boys on the course at once, but the framerate remains unshaken.
