Gran Turismo 5 Prologue 1080p Frame Rate Analysis

View in HD. Captured at 1080p60 using proprietary Digital Foundry equipment. This game gets a lot of stick for screen tear and frame dropping, but this test - taken on the challenging London level - shows that it's a remarkably solid performer. Would hate to try this one online though!

yhh ur right developers jst dnt use ps3s power on multiplates

This is just amazing. Polyphony Digital, Insomniac, Naughty Dog, Kojima Productions and Guerilla Games are pushing console gaming so far in this generation, it's hard to imagine what the PS3 is going to be doing in two or three years.

@DigitalFoundry

My opinion is that the game should run at 30fps and keep these effects. At 60fps, without any effects that are prominant in Dirt and other racers, it just looks too clean for this generation and defeats all the detail they put into the game. In fact, this video makes it feel more realistic.

It doesn't feel as photo realistic as the trailers or replays, and at 60 fps, the hard edge shadows kind of defeat the photo realism the soft hand crafted shadows of 3 and 4 created.

@stryker1999 well im from the future, 2011 to be exact & uncharted 3, infamous 2, killzone 3, resistance 3, and many others look mind blowing, lol jk about me being about the future, ur comment was a year old thats why I said that haha

I don't know why people are complaining about low fps, it's hardley low, if you think it is too low an fps, then your standards are far too high, if it was getting like 12fps I could understand, but it isn't

@stryker1999 It'll be cooking you dinner and doing your laundry! :)

It seems the PS3 power is only unleashed in exclusive games like Uncharted and GT... 360's hardware can't support it I guess...

@DigitalFoundry why is that ?

[TheFred128]

nor to make sense of the graphics since the youtube rots, the graphics of games where the graphics of the games live on a good HDTV is 10x better

[mostie2you]

The actual game is better I think (awesome video though)
