^ if you love cars, love driving for the hell of driving/racing. get it - it's easily the best simulation racing game out there. It is pure simulation, not arcade - well fine maybe a bit of arcade thrown into the mix that differentiates it from say.... rFactor

That being said though, keep in mind that the game is COMPLETELY different from say... need for speed. GT is about racing lines, tactics, technical tunes on brakes, alignment, suspension, drivetrain etc...

There's quick races that takes like 5-10 minutes max to finish off, then you have the Endurance races that dark has been posting about (the longest one I think in the game is the 24hr LeMans).

BUT if you have a XBOX360 and you have never owned a GT Title, you would be better off with Forza 3 - from my short experience with that game, it is much easier to get into and oriented less towards extreme car fanatics.

OH YES!! to fully experience the game make sure you pick up at fully supported steering wheel. Driving Force Pro would be the most basic one, up to the G27 which is the best on the market right now for the PS3 IMO
