  • It's amazing how nicely the cars move even back then. I notice a lot of other people have memories of being rather young when this game came out--- I was about 12 years old when I sunk my teeth into it. Never dropped since; and currently playing GT5. May Grand Valley exist forever.

  • Best intro EVER.

  • 1:21-250 - WOW GT5 graphics! Oh wait, just some of the 800 imported cars lol

  • I GEW UP WITH GT1 AND NEVER LIKED TEH REST EXEPT FOR GT5 REMINDS ME OF THE GOOD OLD DAYS, IM MAKING THIS VID USING GT5 FOOTAGE ITSG ONA TAKE ME MONTHS TO GET EVRYTHING EXACT!!

  • High Speed Ring is the best track <3

  • When I was a kid, the first part of this intro always creeped me out. But the rest was pure awesome. No other intro has made me more pumped to play a videogame more than this one!

    Long live Gran Turismo!

  • these were the dayyssss ahhh

  • I remember too , I was 11 when I got a Ps1 & after my first 3 games i got this and since then I couldn't stop playing Gt when I had the chance.. hopefully my ps1 works just fine =))))))))))) I grew up with GTs like many of you guys so I know exactly how you feel :D;D;D

  • This was the game that started it all!

  • GT5 TOMORROW!!!

  • damn the game looks amazing for a PSX game. It must have been a bitch to program for the PSX back then, especially to make it look this damn good with physics.

  • playing this now!

  • Nostalgia , nostalgia :)

  • Best intro EVER!

  • GOOSEBUMPS

    whatta great time...

  • this game as change my lyfe!

  • Japan really are responsible for the perfromance car boom from the 90's to the present day. Just so many cars that you could quite easily use on the track!

    Always used to play with the mk4 TT Supra on GT1 and 2, now i can finally get to own one for real!

  • I was 10 when this came out and ive never been as exited since

  • this intro is still better than all newer gt games made

  • @Eyun double thumbs up. GT3 is slightly comparable, but no other game intro has beat this.

  • @Eyun Lol, know what I did? I burned all the GT1 songs onto a CD, imported them into my PS3, and set it as my background music, because the music in GT5 sucks mega ass XD

  • @Eyun GT3 intro is MUCH better!!!

  • @Eyun I like the GT5 Spec 2.0 Intro, and the GT5P Intro.

  • Gran Turismo, yeah, god of the racing games ² I remember when i was a little kid, with mu cousin, playing theses games: Gt1, Spider-Man 1, Test Drive 6, Indy Car.. Damn, i feel bad to broke the ps1.

  • Yes, i gonna buy a PS3 so i will play GT1!

  • best intro. it was so in sinc

  • at 1m58s, red car - is it an S14?

  • @crazyoncars yep

  • If the graphics was as good in the intro as the game itself it would be like a million dollar game.

  • @Mattdude411 what are you talking about?! The game WAS a million dollar game!

  • Great game! this brings back good memories!

  • The TRUE pioneer of The Real Driving Simulator.

  • i still have it...though no ps1 or ps2 to play it on, and ps3 doesnt have backwards compatibility :( i have framed this game, and have hanged it on my wall.

  • @polishpaul1990 dude ALL ps3's can play PS! GAMES YOU !!!!!!!!!!!! go pop it into yer ps3 now or i will beet you!

  • i was only like 4 wen this came out but i somehow still remember it. its almost like this is wat made me wanna race. ill never forget the stoplight at the beginning and the racestands. its just perfect to me for some reason.

  • this game was released on April 30, 1998

  • Wow, good times, then we played Gran Turismo In PSX. I would die for this game too.

  • Best intro ever

  • I would die for this game =,(

  • This is my first Game

    was I played for PSX

  • masterpiece !!!

    it was so awesome in those days !

  • The best intro in the series. I love the engine revs in the song!

  • i remember saying to myself, "cutting edge graphics!". ^^'

  • Brings back so many memory's =)

  • skyline R33 LM ROAD EDITION is a dream of 999999999999999999999999999999­999999999999999999999999999999­999999999999999999999999999999­999999999999999999999999999999­999999999999999999999999999999­999999999999999999999999999999­999999999999999999999999999999­999999999999999999999999999999­999999999999999999999999999999­999999999999999999999999999999­999999999999999999999999999999­999999999999999999999999999999­999999999999999999999999999999­999999999999999999999999999999­999999999999999999999999999999 people

  • I used to play this in my car, and at the 1:18 mark, would burn my tires at the same time....who needs drugs when you have THIS!

  • MANIC STREET PREACHERS ALL THE WAY!

  • @8bitFaction i cant bellieve! Its manics =) awesome!!

  • Brilliant! I have to cry...

  • che capolavoroooooooooooo!!!!

  • the original kick off of the gt series, this video, will NEVER be beaten. i have extremly great memories playing around my aunites and uncles, when i was little. it just shows the scene of the 90's and i cant get enough of that! it shows the scene of classic racing, no eletricals, the big stand, the lorry unloading, the garage, and the white line at side of road throughout it! gran turismo 1... histories greatest game, and the game that created a "big bang" in the gaming world!

  • from 1:10 to 1:18 was so exciting and amazing men!!!

  • @qal3 agree

  • I loved how the kerb of GT1 was able to fit an entire car onto it! And never heard the lyrics of this either. /0_0\

  • i remember i always saw the intro with my friends. I love this game. i´ve got lots of good remembers of it.

  • I wish the old Need for Speed series had intro's this epic & its sad that none of the newer GTs have awsome intro's like this. This intro made me wanna own a MR2 & a FTO lol!

  • this game was and still is LEGEND! i remember who long used 2 spend on this game.......till i lost it when moving house :(

  • No! got the oroginal disk from the ps1, gets to the begining intro and crashes! D: why?!?

  • SO MANY AWESOME MEMORIES!!!!!!

  • MEMORIES!!!! This is prolly the best racing game I've ever played

  • @CommandoFin I KNOW RIGHTTT!!! SO MANY GOOD MEMORIES!!! AHHHH!!! hahaha! :D

  • Still my fave intro of all the GT games so far. I remember sittin droolin thinkin about the day when we'll have games that look like that intro then along the PS2 and bam we did!!! It'll be interestin to see what the PS3 can do if GT5 ever does drop...

  • i always love seeing all those car names floating in the beginning

  • This was the first game I ever played at age 4 and I still love it! Of course I am regularly playing on GT4 but this one is still a classic!

  • I used to love this game so much....Im probably buying a PS2 again, since i hate myself that i sold it...and im going to play this game and love it again. :)

    Such memories. I had up to Gran Turismo 4.

    GT4 had such amazing graphics, i prefer it over anyother 360 racing game. :D

  • i bet once GT5 is done PSN is gonna put GT1 in the PS1 Classic so every1 can play this game again..or anyone has PS3 and psp you play it on ur psp then

  • I used to love this game as a kid, and i've only just noticed that the vocals are from Everything Must Go by Manic Street Preachers...Quality intro to a classic game.

  • The vocals kick in and the Castrol Supra makes an appearance... epic!

  • thankyouuuuuuuuuu i have manted to know what this song was since i 1st played it!!!!

  • i want to try and buy a ps1 so i can buy grand turismo and gt2 and more col games but 1 problem MY STUPID MUM WONT LET ME BUY ONE SH!T

  • Manic Street Preachers - Everything must go

  • here , take this stone as a payment for your kindness.

  • @4tehlulz9000 did u ever find the audio for this vid??

  • Best car racing simulator ever made without a doubt

  • I LOVE THAT INTRO !!! ITS LIKE A SILENCE BEFORE THE STORM... ; ] On of my first game on psx

  • my favorite is number 2 but in this one,ALL CARS were fast

  • the best car intro of all time to this day ten years later it has'nt been matched sony should re-release this make it identical except with polished graphics id be the best on the market!

  • ooh kindheitserinnerungen ..aber von ihrer besten seite ;)

  • by far the best intro of the gt series. when this game came out it was simply the next level in racing sims. Back then Need for speed was king, and this simply stool the title with a KO.

    It was the first time we got to see cars Up close and Big on the screen. Camera's were not locked to the rotational axis of the cars. And the cars displayed something never seen in racing sims.. Actual working suspension when accurate wheel rotation. I was always a NFS Fan but this one took my heart.

  • I love number 2 most

  • Best game intro EVER!

  • this game not much cars

  • I bought this game the other day at a car boot sale for 50p in perfect condition. The good memories come flying back!

  • still is today the Worlds best racer! amazing intro i still think its the best i have ever seen i love it cant get enoth <3 =)

  • oh everyones got there golden memorie about this game so do i, i remember the countdown sounds 3 2 1 .........GO!

  • I can't believe I ever lost this game.

    I've been looking everywhere: flea markets, pawn shops, and even friend's houses.

    I can't find it. I just... can't find it.

  • ive got one (:

  • i rember that

    i had a red surbru imprezza

    i want it on ps3 :-(

  • this is the best Grand Turismo they've ever made..

    I got this for my 10th birthday..

    I remember that day :D..

    never did my homework.. came straight home, and played this ALL night..

    and use to have my friends come over, and we would take turns playing..

    good times, good times.. :)

    what I would do to go back in time sometimes..

  • @brizzlestick

    Damn Right!!

  • just like me but i did homework 1st then played but i slept late i was sleeping at 12 or 1 which is pretty late for a 9yr old back then lol

  • Just epic. IMO Gran Turismo was the biggest leap forward in terms of home computer racing games that there ever was or will be. I remember being absolutely blown away, jaw droppingly good. Nothing since has impressed me to that extent.

  • skyline FTW, first car in the intro haha

  • the best game in the world! And for ever maybe... i also grew up with it.

  • unbeatable GT for ever

  • I grew up playing this game and to this day my favorite game ever!!!!

  • Simply great!

  • remember my good old times viewing this vid was better than having sex with my gf!

  • @CONAPOWA ...  lol

  • silver supra at the 2:33 ftw

  • Gran Turismo...God of Racing Games.

  • thats true^^

  • This game OWNS Forza any TIME!!! This one is better than it too LOL

  • Well it wont actually, Not by gameplay or Graphics, Only by the feeling you get from it, GT 5 also gives a wierd feeling :/ Like its the only racing game out there, Forza feels a bad wierd, like a mix of Gran Turismo and Need For Speed :/

  • this and ridge racer and v-rally oh yeah. This is a better simulator than the other two though.

  • omg used to play this for hours and hours i loved the gto and viper ftw :)

  • well if you browse the videos on my profile you'll see other awesome cars too^^

  • this shit gets my dick hard

  • My first game on PS1

    Man I played this game back in tha day =D

  • damn i lost the memory cards nd the game disc :'(

  • U kidding!? This is the only reason why I even thought about buying a ps 1. Was for gran turismo 1 and the following others. As for GT5P? Screw that I'm waiting to get the full GT5. 600 cars? 96 Tracks? worth the wait. Since GT5P is just a teaser.

  • this game is a good pass of gran turismo game

  • that's one of the best game on gaming history...the beginning of real racing games...

  • I remember saying, Man i cant wait for ps2 to come out then the gameplay will actually be like the graphics in this opening video!!

    figured that gran turismo 3 is actually 5 times the graphics than this!! I never thought it could get better, and it always does somehow!

  • Me too :D

    I always wondered that we would see those graphics on the ps2.. my bad (:

    And the GT5p graphics are way better than the GT4 intro ones :)

  • danm right they are but there is way less cars and tracks in gt5

  • But that's Gran Turismo 5 prologue.

    On the final version we will see about 600 cars and 96 tracks.. :)

  • When i thought PSX engine couldn't give better graphics, GT blasts my world.

    Many vacations used playing it.

  • i remember this .... good times TT

  • ok i never thought TEST DRIVE UNLIMITED would be beaten, but then i remembered this - UNBEATABLE. What an intro/tune made for driving. It's what put Sony on the map in the gaming world in my opinion

  • idk bout u guys, but this is an absolutely AMAZING GAME. This was the first racing game i have ever played, this is such a great game

  • best intro to anything ever

  • What about the opening to the game Driv3r? Check it out. The intro (to that game) is also amazing, but the gameplay sucked.

  • Comment removed

  • Every game series has its origin.....

    This origin will go down in history.

    Then again,

    it already has!

    1:18

    And they are off!!!!

  • never forget this game

  • i still play dis game and the second and third,i also gt5.if ur a car nut its impossible to get bored of these games

  • Dam i remember when i used to play this all day everyday...it was fukin addicting!

  • Nice Game

  • 1:18 is the best moment ever in a video game intro. Love it.

  • The best intro of gameplays history.

  • this game has come a long way now, with the release of gran turismo 5

  • I remember being blown away when sony said the ps2 would be able to render graphics like this intro in real time, i just couldnt believe it was/would be possible.

    We come a long way baby!!!

  • Damn I love this game. I never knew what drifting was when i used to play it coz i was about 9, but i remember trying to make the car go sideways like in the intro. Too bad my PS broke about 5 years ago.

  • Best driving simulator

  • best driving arcade ;)

  • Hell yeah, I used to love that jump on Trial Mountain!

  • best intro ever, song really makes it

  • song???

  • it's a remix of a song called everything must go of manic street preachers. chemical brothers make this version, i think.

  • thx

  • 1:19 is where the best of the best begins, and it ends at ends at 1:24

  • Probably the best intro to a game I've ever come across. God, memories with this game back in the day.

  • Spent the whole summer holidaysplaying this on my PS1. Loved the endurance races!

  • I still have this game :)

  • the best intro i have ever seen lol brings back alot of stuff from when i was young memories=)

  • The Reason why im getting a degree in automotive engineering right now.

  • Definitely one of the best games ever made. The graphics were fenomenal, as was the gameplay and the car-drifting. On top of that, this game still gave you the feeling as if you were actually driving fast, unlike all the games on ps2/ps3. And the roaring of the cars was awesome!

  • I love this game. When my friend and I played this, we used to watch the intro video at least until the green light to get into "the driving mood". =)

  • Awesome!

  • wow! It was 10 years ago... Gran Turismo is the best! And it realy revolutionized racing experience! And it reprezents even my childhood.
