Love letters to my favorite games of 2008 ep.2

Dear,

GRAN TURISMO 5: Prologue

PLAYSTATION 3

December 12, 2007

There was a special feeling that hit me when I found a copy of this game at Gamedude that one faithful Sunday back in February. Whether it was a rush or a bug that hit me I couldn't quite figure it out. Yeah it was the Japanese import, and yeah it was fifty bucks. But I could care less, my snobery is so high I couldn't resist not getting it. Oh and the fact that I got to play this game two whole months before the rest of you monkeys was the icing on the cake. Yes I'm better than you. Navigating through a mess of menus in Japanese is an obssession of mine, it feels good, I feel like I'm one of them. And Sony Computer Entertainment America couldn't do a thing about it. I don't have to wait for the evils that is localisation since the PS3 is region free. The clerks at the store told me be sure to play this game in HD. Even in 720p it will blow my mind. They were right. Back then, GT TV was a free service and when the US finally got this game, I already got a ton of episodes available to me since my copy registered to Japanese servers. I got the goods, you guys were stuck in typical late fashion. Boy do I feel good. I recently updated the game to Spec III (again we got it first before you) but today I just insert the disc to gawk at the magnificent visuals. Can't wait for the final version of 5, which I'll be getting the Japanese version to ensure my superiority over the rest of Gamespot. HAHAHAHAHA!
