UK motoring show "Top Gear" to feature in Gran Turismo 5

Xenctuary | October 24, 2007 | News | Playstation 3 
BBC's motoring show "Top Gear" will be featuring in the upcoming Gran Turismo 5 in more ways than one. Racing fans will not only be able to drive on a virtual replica of the Top Gear test track, but will also be able to download 40 of the show's episodes via a dedicated Gran Turismo TV channel launching on the PlayStation 3 Network early next year.
The latest iteration of the GT series will also be fully online - and, alongside lapping the TG circuit, players will be able to download classic episodes of Top Gear via a dedicated motoring channel called Gran Turismo TV on the Playstation network.

    I'm loving the idea of racing around their test track. But downloading episodes is pretty pointless as they are repeated all day on UKTV Gold etc. But the idea shows what can be done in the future.
