Very good documentary about Gran Turismo, even if you're not into video games you'll appreciate this just as a driving /car enthusiast.

Yea, it's insane the amount of data they collect to get the simulations to where they are now. driving a track and playing it in game are now so similar, it's eery. I forgot who and where but, they had a pro driver driving a certain car on a track. The passenger was driving the same car on GT for the PSP on the same track and they were within seconds of each other. Real life imitating video games? or vica versa? hehehe

Found it -

Not surprised.

GT is the only real driving simulator out there. Nothing else comes close.

I played Forza and it was very arcade
