1  Gran Turismo 5: Hands On Posted on 2009/08/22 BY DARRYL Sony were out in full force during GamesCom 2009, an event hosted in Cologne, Germany. As part of their booth, they had a section dedicated to their upcoming racing game, Gran Turismo 5.

The game had quite an impressive setup, with it hooked up to a fully functional force feedback peripheral. There's nothing like playing arguably the most attractive looking racing game with a steering wheel and pedals. The demo was actually quite limiting though, with players only able to sample the Tokyo Route 246 track for two laps in a Subaru Impreza WRC 2009. It would have been nice to get a feel for one of the super cars, but that will have to wait a little bit longer. More »

2  Sony Looking To Regain Momentum Posted on 2009/05/25 BY DARRYL Sony's showing at E3 2008 didn't exactly set the world alight, but it certainly wasn't lacking impact. They announced a few new games and a few new bundles for their existing systems, while trying to stress what they'd achieved since the PlayStation 3 had launched.
