Gran Turismo Premium Pics
A first look at Ferrari in GT.
by Anoop Gantayat
September 28, 2006 - If you love to make screenshots into wallpapers for your computer, have we got a treat to you. Polyphony has unleashed new full resolution images of Gran Turismo HD. These shots give us a closer look at the game's premium mode of play, which will offer a first taste of true next generation Gran Turismo visuals.
There are a number of points to note about these shots. First, they show off the new Ferrari license in action. Ferrari is a new, and highly anticipated, entry to the GT world. Polyphony actually states that Ferrari was the most requested maker car maker amongst GT fans.
Second, not only do we get a look at the exterior Ferrari models, we also get a first look inside the car. The shots include first cockpit views from premium mode. Polyphony has clearly poured resources into getting the interiors correct.
Finally, the size of the screenshots itself is telling. It appears that GT premium, and therefore GT5, will run in 1080p. While the classic mode ran in 1080p, there was some concern that the switch to full spec PS3 visuals would require a drop to 720p resolution.
In addition to the screenshots, Polyphony's GT page offers one tiny new detail on premium mode. As previously detailed, the mode will include 30 cars and 2 courses on the disk. To this, you'll be able to download an additional 30 cars, along with 1 new course. The site states that Polyphony plans on making a London course available for download.
GT HD is still set for Japanese release in December, so our first look at the next generation of racing shouldn't be too far off.

Gran Turismo HD would knocks Forza Motorsport 2 down for extremely realistic and more true HD.
