Gran Turismo 6 vs Real Life - Tokyo R246

[@1999zeus]

I actually walked this route when I was back in Tokyo a few years ago. I think I still have the lap record for a pedestrian.... 20 min 32 sec 😁

[@tokyotravelnet4243]

Funny to see the area where I live in a video game. I was a huge fan of GT3, but when I was playing it, I never thought I would one day be living in Tokyo. I did a demo race on this track at the Sony PS4 Expo in Shinjuku, and actually won the race (not a bad feat, considering it had been 5 or so years since I had last raced it on GT3). For those who are interested, the long, uphill straightaway is Aoyama street. It passes the place where I get my hair cut, the Canadian embassy, the McLaren and Bentley dealers, and the Aoyama twin buildings. It then turns into Yoyogi Gyoen, the straightaway with the tall, straight trees on both sides. Then it turns onto a big oval, around this oval are the Swallow's baseball stadium, the new site of Tokyo's Olympus stadium, the ice skating rink, and Nico Nico part, a play area for kids. The race then leaves the oval, and follows behind an Imperial palace (where the orange-painted road shifts), then turns in front of the National Guesthouse. Then it follows along the old outer moat of the former Edo castle, you can see the New Otani hotel on the left. The track then turns right, under the overpass, if you continue straight, there is a Hooters on the left, and a Bic Camera department store on the right. If you don't turn into the park, Aoyama street will take you to Shibuya Station.

[@shibakun]

Yeah, I have to use Akasaka-Metsuke pretty often. I like that area alot. You gave a good description, but missed a few more pertinent to gamers. On Aoyama Dori you can see Honda world HQ, and a little later before the right hander towards Jingu Stadium is Sony's offices. For more touristy things, there is the Prince Hotel at the final right back to the start line. And next to that is Ninja Restaurant.

[@Sirynx77]

The closest has to be the GTA knockoff game called "True Crime: Streets of LA." The game has a recreation of a 240-square-mile (622 km2) area of Los Angeles. Although majority of the map was just generic, certain area of LA were accurate like the Downtown LA and Santa Monica areas.

[@lynx873]

Very huge comment 😅

[@amristar736]

Is the Yakuza HQ also in that area?

[@skylinetv2778]

And you will transfer yourself from GT Series to JSR

[@krocialblack]

That R35 showing up in the real life clip at 0:30 was just perfect.

[@Arcaniac]

Of all my time of playing all the Gran Turismo games I always thought that Tokyo R246 was Fictional

It’s actually based on a bus route. :)

[@random8780]

I imagine Polyphony Digital guys found a good loop of road to street race and were like "hmm this would be a good track in our game"

[@GTChucker86]

Random fun fact: the Sony office building where Polyphony is stationed is the building on the left hand side of the main start/finish straight of the course. They didnt make any random japanese road into a street circuit they made a street circuit out of the road they see every day outside their office windows

[@lokhim711]

Thomas John Solidum woah that is an awesome fact

[@hectorzambrano4092]

Honestly, I've always thought this was a fictional track until now

[@keaixiaomeinv]

Thank you so much for uploading this. I might sound crazy, but seeing this in real-life had me in tears. That's years of my childhood right there, and seeing it like this was a profound experience.

[@stevenvictoria9568]

It's funny how important someone thinking "hey, I drive this route to work everyday, maybe we can put it in our game" can be so important to our childhoods. 2001 was a different time, so I'm glad it still looks somewhat the same.

Sent shivers down my spine, to realize I've actually walked here in Tokyo before - and been playing it in Gran Turismo since my childhood. It's finally taken this video to realize where this actually was in Tokyo. Thanks for the vid.

As a video editor and fan of GT6, bravo and hats off to whoever put this together and those who mapped the circuit. Amazing.

Thank you so much. I've been wondering if this was actually from a real road and how much so for like almost 2 decades! It was and still is one of my favorite tracks in the series and i love it even more now!

[@SuperGeronimo999]

Yes it did, old stadium doesn't exist anymore.

[@anonimous332]

An F1 GP on this track would be nice.

[@aaronhia1369]

A bit late to this, but its a great video. Also, I realised that at 35 seconds, you will see (besides the R35), the Honda Aoyama Plaza showroom on the left side. Awesome stuff.

[@nebulagames4059]

I always used to think that city circuits in GT were just another type of original circuit, just a made up track based in a real city. But after watching the footage of the end credits for GT Sport and realizing that the Tokyo Expressway was a real place in Japan featured in GT Sport and after watching this video, it’s safe to say that all the city circuits featured in any GT game were real life streets that Polyphony Digital based those city tracks around.

[@caifabe8050]

Seattle Circuit is another example. The reason it's not in Gran Turismo anymore is because the bus stop chicane near the end of the track is taken up by a parking garage IRL now.

[@gatlinweidler2218]

I walked the entire R-246 course when I lived in Japan. It was actually really fun to notice all the details. The Honda headquarters is just a little bit ahead of the start/finish line.

This is so cool. This was and still is my favourite of the City Street circuits. Really wish it came to GTS. But we got Tokyo Express and that’s still really fun with all the alternate routes it’s got. Going the other direction was my favourite version of Tokyo Route 246.

[@MakeLifeExtraordinary]

Anyone giving you a thumbs down needs slapped. Seriously, this is one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen someone do on KZbin and it shows the attention to detail the devs put into recreating the roads they did. Nice job!

[@VolcanoTheBat]

We gotta find special stage route 5 and 11 since it was confirmed they based those tracks on an area in Japan And the fact they consistently keep putting SSR in City Courses does tell us there’s definitely some real life aspects to these tracks we have yet to find

[@vierundfuenfzig54]

dont forget special stage route 7

It's inspired by shuto expressway but the track itself is definitely fictional.
