🐐 When Gran Turismo launched in Japan 28 years ago, it didn’t just release a game; it invented the modern console racing simulator.

By prioritizing realistic physics and handling over arcade-style drifting, the title forced players to master legitimate driving techniques like braking points and weight transfer.

The game revolutionized content depth with an unprecedented roster of 140 licensed vehicles, creating an addictive loop of buying used economy cars and tuning them into racing machines.

This technical marvel pushed the original PlayStation to its absolute limits with reflective graphics, eventually becoming the highest-selling game on the console.

Do you remember which starter car you chose when you first played the original game?

What are your thoughts? 🤔💭
