Gran Turismo 5

Gran Turismo 5 is the sixth iteration of Sony's flagship racing franchise developed by Polyphony Digital. The game is the sequel to the PS2 title Gran Turismo 4 and the full version of Gran Turismo 5: Prologue.

GT5 comes equipped with many new features and enhancements. The game includes more than 1,000 licensed cars for players to use and more than 20 tracks. 200 of these cars are known as premium models, which have fully rendered interior designs and fully fledged mechanical and body damage. For the first time, the Gran Turismo series includes the famous car brands of Ferrari, Bugatti, and Lamborghini. Special events allow players to participate in racing events like NASCAR, WRC, Super GT, and even kart-racing. Players can learn how to race on the Daytona International Speedway by NASCAR driver Jeff Gordon or even be taught how to successfully navigate the complex Nürburgring racetrack. A-Spec and B-Spec game modes return as the main single-player modes. In A-Spec, players can race through a series of different events in which they need certain cars in order to participate in. The series begin in the easy Beginner levels where races can take 5 minutes all the way up to the Endurance levels where races can range from 3 to 24 hours. In the B-Spec mode, players become the race crew chief and tell their driver to do things such as slow the pace while driving or overtake an opponent.

The game includes an all new vehicle physics and graphics engine which allows for cars to show real-time damage and wear. Damage modeling is increased as the player gains levels in the A-Spec game mode. Graphical enhancements include smoke from tires, sparks, skid-marks, and dirt collecting on the cars (which can be washed at the car wash). Dynamic weather makes its first appearance felt with the ability to race not only in the pouring rain but also in a blanket of white-covered snow. This is paired up with a day and night cycle that can be seen in the longer races. Your cars in the game can also be upgraded at the Tuning Shop. Things like weight reduction, turbo kits, and a fully customizable transmission can all be installed to improve a car.

Players can join up with friends and play in the new online mode. Using cars that have been unlocked, the player can race in a public lobby of up to 16 players or create their own private lobby of up to 32. You can also share photos that you have taken in the Photo Mode with friends and let them drive your personally tuned cars in their own game. Tracks created in the Course Maker can also be shared.

Added in patch 1.05, Seasonal Races are a series of special races that are added to on a bi-weekly basis. Some are one-make races with strict tuning limits, while others are time and drift trials that pit the player against the rest of the world. A special Online Dealership has a selection of uncommon standard cars which is updated along with the Seasonal Races, and is usually a good place to find a car for them. As of patch 1.10 Seasonal Races also reward helmets and racing suits that can be equipped by the player or B-Spec drivers to change their look.

Gran Turismo 5 is compatible with Gran Turismo. Cars obtained in the PSP game can be uploaded and used in the arcade mode of GT5.

You might have noticed we have a lot of stock with a product condition of 'New-Unsealed'. This is a condition that is not really commonly found these days, let us explain!

Quite a few years ago we were talking to a fairly local company; they would trade new consoles and games (think console bundles, multipacks etc) sourced from the UK & Europe and break them down to just the bare consoles, separating the games then sending them in bulk to parts of Europe and the Middle East. Games were separated due to the language differences and regionalised games were sold on to their respective countries.

After some time this stock accumulated in their warehouse, but newer more interesting consoles became their focus and this stock was side-lined as a project for another day. Many years passed until they needed to use the space for something else; we were in the right time and place to bid on this stock and took delivery of it a number of years ago.

General Condition Notes

Unless otherwise stated, DLC usually provided with these products will be used, out of date or missing.
We use stock images (provided by Moby Games) for our product images. Variant images are taken by us (and can be viewed when selecting a variant from the dropdown of a product. If a stock image didn't exist on Moby Games, we have provided our own.
In some cases we have more than 1 of an item, images taken by us will be representative of the condition but you won't necessarily get that exact item pictures.
It isn't practical to take pictures of every Preloved item,

New - Sealed

Best For: Ideal for collectors, but the shrink wrap is likely to show signs of storage and transport.
Returns: No quibble returns when returned sealed; partial credit only when returned as opened.

Items with the official seal* will be listed as 'New - Sealed'. These are the cream of the crop; however, to manage expectations, they are likely to have those same storage and transport scuffs as the rest of the stock from this batch.

* We know that not every PS2 game was wrapped at the factory with the official PS2 seal. For example, our stock of Sly 3 came sealed from the factory but with no logos on the seal strip. This is the only exception we have currently, but this might change.

New - Unsealed

Best For: Ideal for collectors, since the disc/cartridge will be pristine but the game case is likely to show signs of storage and transport.
Returns: No quibble returns.

For anything marked as 'New - Unsealed' from this batch, you should expect some scuffing or storage and transport wear on the outer case; however, the manual, DVD inlay, and disc will be in brand new condition.

Please note:

We prefer to keep to the original cases rather than use pattern part replacements, however if you did want that glossy new game feel we do sell replacement cases for PlayStation 2 games
Since these are already unsealed we do inspect and test these so there could be a tiny bit of dust or a fingerprint on them, they will be pristine all the same.

New - Resealed

Best For: Ideal for collectors who want a mint copy but intend to play it.
Returns: No quibble returns.

We also have a condition of 'New - Resealed'. (Affecting some of our PlayStation 3 games).

We're not really sure who resealed them or why, but the product inside is pristine and lacks the shelf wear found on the unsealed items or the branded tear strip was not used for them (this does happen for some bundled and Platinum Edition PlayStation 3 games).

Preloved

Best For: Ideal for gamers who just want to play the game.
Returns: No quibble returns.

Preloved items are bought in from the public, job lots, and trade-ins or provided by 3rd parties wholesale. To remain efficient with our grading, Preloved items are advertised as 'Boxed / No Manual'. They won't be in perfect condition but they are priced to reflect this.

If a manual is included, consider it a bonus gift! Many include manuals, we just don't guarantee it therefore they are priced as if the manual is missing.

Disc Rot

Disc rot is a chemical deterioration of the reflective layer inside a CD or DVD, often appearing as small pinpricks of light or "bronzing" when held up to a lamp. This occurs over time due to oxidation and can cause games to crash or fail to load.

Our Disc Rot Policy

Defective on Arrival: Any game found to have disc rot upon receipt is eligible for a full refund or exchange within our 30-day warranty window.
Inspection: We visually inspect all Preloved and New-Unsealed stock for signs of rot. For New-Sealed and New - Resealed items, we cannot verify disc condition without breaking the seal.
Sealed Item Returns: If a sealed game is opened and found to have disc rot, it can only be returned for partial credit, as the premium value of the factory seal is lost.
