Racing is an elemental form of video gaming, almost as old as the medium itself. Today, when a console manufacturer wishes to express the graphical fidelity or processing power of the device to a wide audience, inevitably it comes through a racing video game. And Gran Turismo has been the PlayStation’s showpiece for 20 years.
