I Played Gran Turismo 5 For The First Time In 2023 - Does It Hold Up?

Despite being a fan of the series, I managed to miss out of Gran Turismo 5 for 12 years. Let's fix that by giving the game a shot on PC using the RPCS3 emulator!

I'm one of the people who got to play GT5 just after release. I really enjoyed the main game, but the highlight for me was the online play. I made so many online friends for the first time playing it. The structure allowed people to just goof off and have fun. Sure you could run races and even win a bit of cash, but most people just messed around. You'd basically host a lobby, and you can pick whatever track, and people can freely enter the track, race around, return to the lobby, pick a different car, set it up, even buy a few upgrades, and jump pack in and continue driving around, without leaving the lobby, all while in voice chat. The host could change track, make restrictions on car, and start races whenever. People brought in unique and interesting cars that they found in the used dealership or through career, and compete to see who would win in a drag race or drifting, cruising on the highway track, or who could make the fastest car within a PP restriction. First time I ever stayed up until like 4 am was playing this game. It showed me how fun online gaming with strangers could really be. When everyone shares the love of cars and is given a game with as much freedom as it has, you make a lot of good memories.

[@WTGRacing]

I got this game two days after release date and you're spot on. Such a good online community and layout, its a shame there's no equivalent today.

[@SynexBB]

Not to mention the shuffle races, these were so much fun!

[@xraider927]

34:25 the reason why they named Lutecia instead of Clio in Japan, is that the name was taken, by Honda with their dealership network until 2006 as they put all three (Honda Clio, Honda Primo, and Honda Verno) now as Honda Cars Dealership network. Similar to what Toyota (Corolla, Toyotpet, Netz, and Toyota Store), Nissan (Nissan Red Stage, and Nissan Blue Stage), among others did in Japan.

[@xXYannuschXx]

The color accuracy of GT5 was pretty impressive, some scenes looked real (when you filtered out the low res background).

[@Zoinkinator]

The nostalgia i had with this game made me emotional. The amount of fun i had playing this game alone and with my dad.

[@Tokyoracer247]

Man, YT compression made that GT-R thumbnail look so crunchy that I can’t believe it’s GT5. That aside, after the long wait from GT4’s release, GT5 was an amazing experience and the downfalls it had didn’t ruin the overall experience. It was a game I nearly couldn’t put down until GT6 came out in 2013. Given the PS3 hardware trouble and publishing time constraints PDI faced, GT5 was an amazing product built off perseverance. The pitfalls came from obstacles outside of Polyphony’s control and them not being able to fit everything they wanted into a limited basket. The official servers may be gone since long ago, but the spirit of 5 is definitely AL1V3 (The video has been great so far, but I had to type that out before finishing the rest. You sure know how to make a captivating video, Eden)

[@rudravisual]

GT5 and 6 had a comfy feel to it, vs Sport and 7. These games felt like a car collection simulator. Even the main menu of GT5 feels like an interface for your PS3.

[@shivka-]

Gotta appreciate the editing, my attention span became pretty low over the years and how youtube videos are evolving these days but the combo of your stream highlights and the job of your editor keep me really entertained from start to finish even though the videos mostly reach the 1 hour mark. Keep up the great work, really underrated!

[@mhzaneimpact1419]

[@user-bc7mu4fj1y]

I didn’t even realise this vid was a hour

[@KiraSlith]

8:20 GT4 was intended to be a release day title, and ALL cars were intended to have complete interiors. More infamously, the demo that came out on the PS3's release day had significantly better graphics than the full version released nearly 4 years later.

[@JamVar]

Nostalgia aside, this game really still holds up. But even back in the day, standard cars were SUPER rough to look at amongst the rest of the game. In that same vein, even 11 year-old me knew something was EXTREMELY off with that chase cam lol Definitely hoping for a cam mod in the future (and for the game to work for longer than 5 minutes KEKW). Nonetheless, awesome music (still sucks that Isamu Ohira never returned after GT4 tho), a solid selection of cars and tracks, including HD GT classics like SSR5, plus tons to do - I can't help but love it, despite its shortcomings (nostalgia, very much not aside).

GT5 and GT6 has some amazing mods (Master mod for GT5 and Spec II for GT6) that bring back most of the content that was lost when the servers closed. In the case of GT5, it even adds multiplayer that you can play using xlink kai (which kinda emulates playing on LAN). I've done some online GT5 races on my PS3 a couple years ago and it worked really well. The GT6 mod even adds a collection of community made tracks from back in the day, and the missions from Gran Turismo 4 into the game, as well as making the car sounds slightly less vacuum cleaner-ish.

[@TheShyDragon]

I played GT6 ever since I was a child and when I got GT5 when I was a teen... I can’t tell you how much I struggled with GT5’s economy 💀

[@asimepuse]

When the servers were up you got extra cash for login in everyday, up to double the money for login in five days in a row. And you had the online events which i think refreshed every week and those gave a lot of money as well (and you could replay them as many times as you wanted)

[@r26ba85]

I bought GT5 on release, and it just happened by accident, happened to go to the videogame store and they had the copies come in that day. I enjoyed playing it a lot, brings back good memories. Enjoyed playing online a lot, at the time I had bought a G27 logitech set for it and it was great. Simpler times back then. Also very much enjoyed the track maker aspect of it, made some fun tracks. It was nice to see player creativity in online lobbies

[@sylansylan4189]

Getting this game as a birthday present was really nice. And then to add on to the beautiful sundae, the cherry on top was the NASCAR events people hosted back then. I was SUPER into NASCAR at the time I got it, which was just a little bit after it launched and when I saw I could enter in NASCAR races online, I was hooked. And the amount of people who had the same love of the racing in GT and NASCAR was just incredible. I made so many friends through those clean race lobbies and even did some Corvette Vs Ford GT races as well. Every online lobby was a huge experience for a 11 to 12 year old me, getting home just before my parents got off work, finishing up homework and then launching straight into GT5 to play with those friends every moment I could was so much fun. Thank god there is a modding community who made the means to relive that experience possible!

I'm not sure about the minimap, it could be probably a bug like something connected to aspect ratio or the emulation, it didn't felt that big or terrible originally at the PS3 even when I played it last time. But what I can say about this game, it is completely amazing, you can see how much details the Japanese puts into showing the cars, the love to the automotive, motorsport and such. It is great you could finally try out the game for yourself. Thanks for the video and have a nice weekend or week or so :)

[@current3109]

GT5 multiplayer lobbies were so much fun. From exclusive JDM meets mostly on the Japan highway map, to drag racing on tracks where players would enter a ghost mode by pressing their menu button, signaling the start of the drag race. I don’t recall ever legitimately racing online. It was mostly playing free roaming and hanging out. Fun times.

When Gran Turismo 6 was still online, I had my best time in my life. It had a extra app for tablet, which you can create your own track up to 10km, with curbs, stands, bridges and idk what else. The Spec-II mod of Gran Turismo 6 brings back some customized (and modded) tracks, which were saved before the online servers for GT6 was shut down. It's a big shame Gran Turismo 7 doesn't have that anymore

GT5 Was my first real racing game in regards to being a sim (Only played NFS games before). I played this game from the day it dropped to the very last seconds of the online servers. All told over 5k hours spent in this game during my childhood and build the foundation of my love for cars. I still sometimes hop on my PS3 and play the game. I had literally everything at one point or another and participated in thousands of online races made lots of friends, was part of crews, etc. This game is basically a childhood love for me, thanks for giving me so much nostalgia :)

[@liamcdm3689]

GT5 was my first foray into anything resembling sim racing. I first played it when I was 10 shortly after release, and while I loved it, I found it too hard to 100%. The X2010 and Eiger Nordwand time trials simply blocked me from being able to do so. A decade later (about 2021 or so), and with a G29 and more experience, I finally got the platinum after realizing I had the online trophies and realized I could theoretically 100% it. From my experience, I feel GT5 holds up EXTREMELY well. The physics, UI, music, campaign and everything feels absolutely wonderful. I played it natively on my PS3 so sub-1080p resolution doesn't look great. But comparatively speaking, even the graphics hold up well! Honestly I think it blows GT7 out of the water. GT Cafe should NEVER have become the campaign.

The tuning community and the absolute limits people would push cars to was unbelievable, and the car economy that came into the game with rare used cars and trading tunes was amazing. Ill never have another experience like this game was back in its hayday.

[@MeDicen_Rocha]

I grew up playing GT3 and then moved over to Forza. When i finally got around to playing GT5 in 2016, it turned out to be rather disappointing compared to how i expected it to be. The one thing i will forever remember are the loading screens, over and over again that would take AGES to get through, no matter if the game was installed into the console or not.

It's been ages since I played Gran Turismo 5. Like yourself I still had a ps2 when it released and then got the game a couple years later when I got a ps3. I do miss playing the game and a shame the online features are gone from 5 and 6. I do remember playing on the top gear test track a lot online and having drag races there. Although annoyingly all my progress on both games have been wiped from the ps3 so that's what stopped me playing as there was hundreds of hours played on each game.

[@sonydominates]

GT4 and GT5 are my favorite in the series. I got GT4 in anticipation for GT5. I remember playing the GT HD demo in the shopping mall whenever I was dragged there and being mind blown by the quality of the graphics. Waited in great anticipation for GT5 and decided to play GT4 in the meantime. Learned so much about driving, cars, and racing. I loved cars since I was a kid, but GT made me fall in love with racing. GT5 was such a blast once it came out. It wasn't everything I'd expected, but it more than made up for it in other ways I couldn't imagine. Enjoyed photo mode way more than I though I would, and loved the seasonal events and online community. Good times. Can't believe it's already over 10 years ago. If only I could turn back the time. Thanks for this stream, really brings back the good memories.

Great video, and the 'Special' races at Daytona and the Nürburgring (around 48:00) were hilarious. I was wondering what game version of GT5 you're running? I tried a few different ones (1.00, 1.13, 2.00, 2.07, 2.11, and 2.17), but I can never get more than about 30 minutes without a crash in any of them. I'm still enjoying playing it though, and I've almost completed all the license tests with at least a silver.

Maybe he runs 1.00

I would also like to know, 2.17 seems to always crash and is kinda pointless as it adds nothing since 2.11. the main menu says 2012 so its likely either 2.07 or 2.11. definitely not pre 2.0 since the DLC cars are in.

[@rodsk8dude731]

First game I had for the PS3, before even getting the console. My brother got the game for me as a gift. We already had a 360, but we also got a PS3 for the exclusives, also online play, since in the 360 we couldn't play online for.. reasons. Liked it more than Forza. The driving felt so much more fun. The custom soundtrack feature was awesome too, were you pick a song, or folder or playlist from the PS3's HDD, and it actually incorporates it properly into the game, playing it only in the correct moments (you could pick different playlists for races, replays and menus), pausing it when pausing the race, everything.. Didn't even mind the standard cars. The car painting was flawed, with having to collect the paints, but I loved that the colors were all different. Like, just because "gloss" colors are all in the same category doesn't mean they have the same properties. Some had stronger reflections than others, some reflected light different (like, in some the light reflections were very sharp, and in others they were more blurred). That was the case for all color categories. And you could paint wheels with metallic/matte/chrome/pearl colors and it worked, unlike Forza in the 360, where they were always gloss.

Dá pra iniciar uma carreira nova sem perder a anterior?

Can't believe this is your first time playing GT5 lol! I first played it back in 2014, great game!

30:58 that absolutely sent me in the super car festival. I wanted to use the Cadillac Cien because it was my best supercar, but no concept cars! I had to use a Mercedes Mclaren SLR (handles like ass) and what did I see as an opponent? Lo and behold! A Cadillac Cien! So frustrating. Smoked me at Midfield. Came back and got my revenge with a Nissan R390
