This game does have a lot of innovation and some great control. I love how you can use the right analog stick to accelerate and break!! I would've given it a 6 if it didn't have that but it's a huge bonus. I don't know why they don't make games like this for the PS2. Gran Turismo 3 gets tiring after a while. This game has great graphics and never gets old. I played it at my friends house, but if I had an XBOX I would pick it up.
