Gran Turismo 6 holds the record for being the least sold game in the mainline franchise. Released for the Playstation 3 in late 2013, it was overshadowed by the new console generation and quickly forgotten. But is it still worth playing in 2024?

Reminder that Gran Turismo 6 is probably the largest amount of car in gaming till this day, 1200+ cars.
and half of them are Miatas 🫨
😂@@DustinEdenYT
But some models have terrible quality. I'm glad actually that they stopped making so many cars and went into detail in the new GT games
And most of them are reused GT3/GT4 PS2 models that're quite low poly
You're saying that like it's a good thing lmao most of the best racing games have less than a 100 and are better off for it
Remember chat, if you don't brake before a corner *bad things will happen*
*_Bad things_*
War crimes
The game will cut the brake lines the next time you race if you don't comply
This game, to me, is a bit like Most Wanted 2012 in that there's practically none of the progression of the previous games of their respective series yet they both have a level of freedom to them that I have not experienced in any other racing games. It was like having a room full of Hot Wheels cars and tracks (over 1200 of those cars lmao) scattered around and I would go and pick whatever cars and tracks I felt like playing with until I got bored of them and went to try something else. It was the perfect stress reliever after a rough day at school. I would still argue that 5 is better than 6 but I can't deny that this game definitely deserves a bit more love than it got.
It's a shame RPCS3 can't really handle Gran Turismo 6's final update. By that point, Update 1.22, Gran Turismo 6 was perfect; especially with the Spec-II mod.
If there's a reason why I should buy PS3 again is because of this. Nenkai with all of the community really cooking the spec-II mod
Yeah, bamBankMan. The whole reason why I bought my PlayStation 3 in 2019 was for Gran Turismo 5 and 6. It was worth it!
I’d like to see this game emulated on a Steam Deck with an updated RPCS3. Then we’d be cooking with grease.
GT6 Spec-II Mod x Strato Mod is a Must have tried it out for all GT Fans!
I’ve been playing perfect with an update Rpcs3 the last week on my M1 Pro and LOVING IT🔥
Online GT6 was some of the most fun I’ve had on a game. So many cars and tracks. Circuit creator, a pp system that actually made sense most of the time. Some amazing races and memories
The course maker brought the life to gt6 that it so desperately needed, it’s a shame it was tied to the server and was wiped and unusable after 2017
@@willfantry2773if you know of the gt6 spec ii mod, you can actually play a lot of salvaged custom tracks among many other cool features 🙂
gt5 online was better, mainly with all of the popular hacks
Gt 6 and 5 online working and today, but you need mod for this
@@mkguardian2753 I have a jailbroken PS3 and can technically play it online, but it was much better when the actual servers were up when it was more accessible for the masses.
The fact that this game is the lowest selling with 5.2 million actually shows how good this series get with sales. 5.2 mil is actually great given the circumstances it was released in.
They also cost an arm and a leg to develop because of PD's scheduling and scoping.
5,2 million was not good by pd standards its worst Selling gt game of all time, just remember that gt sport has sold like 12,7 million and its not a numbered gt game
@@andreasmoller9798 yeah the original comment was saying in general it was a lot of sales if we compare it to the rest of the gaming Industry
@@wolfbad512yes campared to forza motorsport gran turismo sells a lot more and its not difficult to see why
The first thing I will do when playing Gran Turismo 5 and 6 again is purchase a Cappuccino and maxing it out. Also, it's sad that you can't play the later versions of GT6 on an emulator (yet) as it adds things like the Ayrton Senna tribute.
I was wondering about the Senna stuff bean absent.
That with the first and only F3 car in the series, and Circuito de la Sierra, the Tomahawks too
just an note this game held the world record for the most cars in a racing game because there are 1279 cars
And what about all the dupes 🤥
@@Bookwastakewell, every game with more than 200 cars have dupes lmao. Not as much as Gran Turismo, sure. But... I don't see too much people complaining about the 5 variants of the Pagani Zonda Cinque in Hot Pursuit Remastered, or the 100 variants of the Porsche 911 in Forza
@@zacariascisneros6399But GT has completely the same car variants. Forza has the same model but different specs
@@valeriypupkin they're different versions of the same car (huracan, huracan sto, 992 911, 992 gt3) while gt6 had the miata, mx5 and eunos roadster (the same car different name)
*still holds
The cappucino race car actually exists in Gran Turismo 5 as well, however in that game you had to first buy the car and then go to GT auto and apply the "racing modifications" on it Due to how few cars had the option available a lot of people don't know about this
The KTM X-Bro visual gag Is probably my favorite lmao
Gran Turismo 6 definitely holds up technically. Tracks, graphics, physics, content, length, replayability, car list, setup, scope. It is the best GT to this day even if the sound is very outdated. And especially physical wise the game is far ahead of its time. I just love this game. Its the final game that had the classic Gran Turismo concept and already showed the future of the franchise.
i have to agree that the physical calculations on GT6 are the best of the entire series - It looks only slightly better than GT5, but actually has a pretty huge performance difference comparatively (on an emulator) - the only thing I have deduced this down to, being that the graphics are pretty similar, is that the physics/AI calculation is just way ahead of its time and more akin to modern day simulations all the way back in 2013! amazing stuff PD did and truly the last 'classic' GT in the sense of being real down to the last detail!
This game holds such a special place in my heart. It was the first gran turismo I have actually played all the way through and my brother was selected to sing that amazing intro!
The PS3 is one hell of a console, I am not surpised that the PS4 had no backwords compatibility at the time.
The first game I played on my PS3 years after playing GT4 on my PS2. Still my favourite to this day.
There’s a mostly working ONLINE MOD!!!!! It works only on real PS3s and the custom track creator system actually works too!!!! It’s as awesome as it sounds and the only reason you don’t know about it yet is because Reddit nerds and nenkai don’t want you to for some reason
😮
There actually is a tutorial video for installing the online mod, if you go look for it. Yeah, it's a shame that not many know.
@@TheNamelessUse its thanks to that Nenkai asshole trying to cover it up and get people to not play it because one day he decided he didnt like Irekej
I bought a PS3 just to 100% this game. No regrets, it was an awesome experience
*My Hot Take on GT6: if GT6 was ported over to PS4 I'd play that over GT7 since it is playable offline and don't have to worry about the servers.
Realatble but Sony loves bad decisions It seems
For me personally 1. GT4 2. GT3 3. GT6 I got GT6 when it came out just over 10 years ago
PS2 era GT physics are weird. They'd have a touch of sim, but if collided with a wall, it feels like being in a bumper car 😂
Been playing a lot of gt6 recently. I think it's a great game personally. Just finished a Japanese only run of the career and doing American only now. The amount of cars to choose from is immense.
GT6 online is alive and well with an extremely active community if you guys didn't know (GT5 is also alive)
How? Need CFW? Where can I find info? Ughhh just lemme Google it! 🥴🤣🤣
47:37 I played Mario Kart 7 on a 2DS once, and if you enable tilt steering, it gives you a cockpit view instead of the chase cam
"Gran Turismo 7 is just 7 i guess" literally summarises the whole Gran Turismo 7
I still love playing this game, Gran Turismo 6 is still my favorite GT game along with 4.
GT6 and TDU2 got me back into racing games. Also, the nostalgia I feel in the intro when the rock kicks in brings me to tears.
This was my first GT game, got it in 2017 a few months before GT Sport launched. I know a lot of people thought this game was nothing special but I really enjoyed it. I liked how diverse the car roster was (even if it was a little quantity over quality) and the updates added a lot of content to the game. I also loved racing and messing around with custom tracks online, I was so sad when they closed the servers only a year later in 2018. I felt like I missed out on so much. I've played some other GT games now (like GT4) and I think they hold up better from a gameplay/career progression standpoint but this game still holds a special place in my heart, I get a wave of nostalgia every time I hear the GT6 lounge music 🙂 Good job to you and James on this video 👍
"A lot more creative." That phrase pretty much sums up how the gaming industry used to be. Cool GT6 video DE. I'm gonna go start playing it today. Thanks!
TO THIS DAY, they still havent added 3/4 of the VGT cars
Definitely wondering what that Nike Jordan VGT would look like…
They didnt port this game to PS4, probably too much work and GT Sport was already in development. But they made a quite a few DLC updates to this game that offered some content and fixes. Update 1.22 came out in Dezember 2015.
24:23 "They added it in this one" GT5: EMOTIONAL DAMAGE
31:44 Matched the text font so well. Seems legit.
GT6 is the best racing experience i had in a console with controler, the variety of tracks, cars... the amount of hours i enjoy time attacking tsukuba, nordshleife, brands hatch is insane haha
Gran Turismo 7 kids: “Best racing game ever!” Gran Turismo 6 kids and earlier: “They’ll never understand”
1:16:00 For future reference, thats not a convertible. It just has a vinyl covering on the roof. Very popular in that era- my '68 Camaro has one. Unfortunately theyre infamous for trapping moisture and rotting the roofs out.
Feels like i haven’t seen a dustineden vid in eons
I was literally dreaming about a video exact like this last night, I wake up, and here it is, what are the chances
1:55 wait the fuck up that one's not me...
Amazing job Dustin! Even your editor James is really amazing on his impression skills. The man has range! Actual range like a VA.
@@JamVar your welcome. Also during like one of the edits of the Goodwood messages… you putted Yuri from Doki Doki from one of them. Are you like a fan of her or something?
@@unleasherquiles8319 I am indeed, but I thought it was rather fitting given in the game, she becomes obsessed with the main character (yandere I think it's called?) kinda like Lord March hitting up Dustin 2 seconds after finishing the first Goodwood event XD
@@JamVarGreat editing! please do cum
@@JamVar Yes you’re correct, they’re called a yandere. Gonna say… it’s a neat reference. Well done to you.
I'l always be nostalgic for gt6, it was my first gt game and real game in general, when i was like 8, that intro still gives me chills to this day
Hell yeah this was another amazing video. Everything from the content itself (even just the raw material from the streams is great), to the pacing, references and jokes was amazing. Tbh (like most people), i forget that GT6 even exists most of the time, but i discovered lots of cool shit in it through this video ngl. Also, the change from the "Corvette" to "TVR" in the race was pretty creative; Anything bri'ish was also mocked really well; And Hector demanding to see balls was crazy goddam ☠️
I'm still playing it and a couple friends are too! I loved it when they released it and still love it now. Bought the Anniversary edition and had all the extra content but as my console died I lost everything. Since December that I got my new console I'm playing again.
Ayeee its your boii DustinEden post again, love your content Eden!
Growing up my family didn’t have much money so I always got games and consoles super late, even though the ps4 had come out my parents weren’t able to get me one, so I stuck with my ps3 and had gotten this game. So many memories playing it as a kid, my favorite car in the game was the M4 F82 and it became my dream car, so much so that I ended up buying an F80 lol. But I had so much fun with the online on this game and the story. Countless memories doing top speed races on SS Route X, doing “touge” runs on Circuito De La Sierra, and car meets/highway runs on SS Route 7. To many this game was subpar but to me, as a 13 year old kid I had a blast and loved every moment of it. Prior to GT6 I had only played GT5, so I can’t fairly compare the older GTS to those two.
Fun fact : the deltawing was one of the prototype for indy car châssis of 2010s
No it wasn’t 😂
@@alexandertebo4011 It actually was. The Deltawing was a potential chassis for the 2012 Indycars, but instead was rejected for the Dallara design
The Pace car skyline with the lights was my favourite drift car 😂 to see it slide round the corner in a cloud of smoke flashing red and blue 😅
Your attention to detail in editing is pretty good!
You know, I don't say that GT has to be that serious, but I do miss stuff like this. Not just showing you things about cars, but covering things like the rover, experimental machines, the very first cars ever made, and so on and so forth. It's just really cool to see how how far cars made it as a whole y'know
Gran Turismo 2009 PSP is Even More UnderRated
True
Gran Turismo 6 is easily the most underrated game in the franchise. Best car list, best track list, best handing, loved the Sierra Rally and Good wood. If it came out on PS4, it wouldn't have been as hated.
Ni PS4 sucks. I can still update the game on My molded PS3. I love I can just let ai do work
I want a C2E Diana...but no Sony hates good cars...but 7 beatles.
No double or whites ether...but the tank car..no Ka or Robin's. No smart or Think. No Tesla until Sport.fuck Sony
Dawg what fuck are going on about @@TempoLOOKING
I would rather say it being the second wasted potential in the GT series
Dustin that Go-Kart track was actually modelled after Rainbow Road from Mario Kart lmao
I get so happy when you have posted
Now THIS I am looking forward to, Gran Turismo 6 was my first Gran Turismo, I absolutely love it.
For me I think this one is a good enough mix between gt4 and gt5, plus the more modern cars and different brands felt refreshing. And I also somewhat like the progression bc gt4 almost always gave me decision paralysis bc of the many different paths you could take (I have adhd). Love how the license tests were handled in this game, so much more interesting to play without having to play for hours just to get some golds. Definetly my favorite gt game, with gt4 very close behind
Polyphony be like “blue tyres, funniest shit we’ve ever seen”
48:00 The track is unused in the code of GT5, and the master mod lets you use any car on it. Go wild.
mx5 touring car is so good in gt5 and 6 its so fun to use
The end credits to this game lives rent free in my mind.
Dude! You played one of my favorite GT games:D I think it’s pretty nice.
I remember this was one of the first games I bought with my own money so it always has a special place in my heart. My sister though sold all my cars though and made sure to wipe most of my credits by buying and selling expensive cars, so I was basically given two choices. Start a fresh save, or do the gigachad option and start from the Sunday cup and build back up with a car that I could barely afford and grind
I hope your sister get's karma'd.
Does Dustin remember later in the video that the Dual Shock 3 had digital shoulders and analogue face buttons?
Well this was nostalgic and your humour is brilliant.
god that opening brings back memory. dumb young me cant even read at the time got this game on the playstation 3 and just driving around in career mode trying to get the stars to continue to the next stage. then raging when i spent all my money and then try to money cheat xD
My dad had a PS3 with gt6 and that was My Childhood and the soundtrack was amazing
7:33 *Put in south park The Stick of truth Clyde Reaction of Cartman Saying PP Here*
The fact that GT Sport got nearly 13mil sales is insane but I feel like the number might be inflated a bit from it being on the Playstation Plus monthly free games list at one point. They made 355mil usd on the game so if each game cost 60 usd (not counting game discounts, ps4 game + console bundles and possibly micro transactions included in the total revenue) they'd have about 5.9mil copies sold.
Seems really sus for a "prologue" half gran turismo game (gt sport is called "GT7SP" in game files)
I'm not gonna lie, I know people like to rag on Sport, myself included, but I don't find it hard to believe it broke the 10 mil mark. First GT game on a console always sells like tuna sells to cats.
@@THENAMEISQUICKMAN Of course (still funny that gt sport sold so well)
On the one hand, the game was $20 and lower for a good chunk of its life which could also attribute to a lot of sales. On the other hand, MTX and the uber-expensive cars might lead us towards a smaller playerbase. Although I wouldn't necessarily attribute the GT playerbase as one that would spend a lot on MTX so idk...
GT Sport was never available on PS Plus. No GT game has ever been on PS Plus free game of the month thing
GT6 war mein erstes Gran Turismo und ich habe es geliebt. Wie gern würde ich es wieder spielen
This game was my childhood, I have wanted you to play it for so fucking long
Man,as a gt6 player,i can only enjoy your reaction😂😂
This was the only gt game i properly finished, although i did technically get the 1st credits of gt5 but its gt6 where i completed the campaign in full and it was at this game where the Tommykaira ZZII became my favorite car in the series because of how i managed to build one that could beat even the fast LMP cars and by a good margin even. Also the high top speed i get with the c7 and srt viper.
Honestly, GT5 and 6 are the sole reasons I initially got a PS5. Absolutely amazing games.
GT6 is 10 years old 😵 I remember the day i bought the game and it feels like yesterday. Time flies so fast.
The touring and race cars are Race Modifications from Gran Turismo 5 like the Cappuccino
love this, watching it for the 2nd time already! 5 days old too
25:30 Also, one of the best early cars in Asphalt 8 if i remember correctly
The campaign was lacking for sure, but all the magic happened online. The cruise rooms, car show lobbies, route X races, it was awesome. My favorite memory was when my buddy and i took the karts to route X, typing in the chat all like "wouldnt it be funny if we did a lap in karts?" "lmao yeah lets do it!". We go down the straight from the start line, it takes us quite a while and right before the corner, we both stop in silence for a minute. I tell him "do we really want to do the whole thing?". He tells me "No......but lets go back and tell people we did" and we went back to our shenanigans. I miss GT6 online so much 😭
i love GT6 it is amazing that you can BUY ANY CAR. Insane. Also, it was such an expansion over GT5, the A spec mode in Gt6 is awesome, so many great races! nurburging is insane
22:54 this was in the PSP game. But i don't know the point of it either tho
I remember before I played any GT game this one was my favorite, mostly because of its 1300 cars, then I played GT4 and after doing that 500 times it became my favorite. This game looks really weird, I've rarely ever seen any gameplay of it for some reason. It's the last classic Gran Turismo but it also takes away everything from GT5 by removing used dealer, making licenses kind of useless and changing the career a lot. Though the track creator looks awesome, I wish it could still be used today
FINALLY A NEW VIDDDD
28:21 Pink Vitz !😎❤!
It's back.
Using face buttons for throttle isn't that bad since dualshock 3 has them pressure sensitive. So you can lightly press it to give half throttle, you can adjust it.
I like using the right analog stick for the throttle.
Nice NC, long hair stranger ❤. Love the colour.
I actually had no idea Gran Turismo 6 had released until at least a year after it came out. With how long gt5 took, I think I just wasn't even anticipating it
50:37 holy shit that is almost exactly the way i customized mine in gt sport and 7
James is funny as shit. I like his skits and input lol he should appear more often
Bought a used copy of GT6 months ago and booted up my PS3 after I fell in love with GT4 on PC. The only two gripes I have are that most cars are just remastered models from the PS2 era, and there's no used cars dealership. Also I'm sad that I can't use my modern wheel because it's not compatible with the PS3, it felt amazing on GT4.
Though it's far from my favorite in the series, I still have some fond memories from this game - especially, with the custom track builder app that probably doesn't exist anymore lol Much more freedom to build tracks without the limitations in GT5's track of builder. But this is another one of those games where, in collecting footage, I found myself wanting to keep playing. Standard cars aside, it's a treat to look at and despite the streamlined progression, it was still enjoyable to play through as far as I did. Also, this is the only GT where I can handily gold ALL licenses - that is to say, they are absurdly easy...maybe too easy, but I'll take that over a dozen long-winded CBT tests any day. I understand why it sold as poorly as it did, but I would encourage those on the fence to give it a go. (Be wary of emulation if you're epileptic. This game flickers all over the damn place.)
It's definitely the GT that I go to when I just want to screw around with random cars. No used car dealership means I can just buy whatever, whenever, and go chuck it around wherever I want. Downsides: The AI are quite possibly the worst in any racing game, everything in the career is too short and piss easy, drifting is required for 100% completion (that's just me hating/being unable to drift). Upsides: Goodwood, Senna Tribute, dicking around with the Lunar Rover, Sierra Time Rally (the track, not the event).
I was so bummed by 5 that I just ignored 6 when it came out, thanks for the video.
All my life was my childhood anime opening even tho it was from gt6
For me this wasn’t a fun game on its own but paired with gt5 it was fun. Gt5 had great progression but sometimes you had to miss out on a cool car because of saving money. Gt6 gave that freedom that gt5 lacked
I have a Launch PS3 and a Thrustmaster T300 with TH8A Shifter - playing GT5 and GT6 on this wheel setup is actually a lot of fun regardless of various issues with both games. Great to see GT6 being played in 2024, nice vid! 💯
So glad i bought it day one, I still have it on my ps3, occasionally play it along gt5.
Awww man im having nightmares about this game, it loads very slow when you want to start a race
26:06 I actually already was there. I didn't know this was a location in GT6.
GT5 and GT6 intro songs are peak
Looking back at it. There was a lot of things that GT6 skimped out on from GT5. In a way, it feels like it should've just been a patch for GT5 rather than its own standalone game. There's stuff I thought I remember having fun in GT6, but just rewatching this, I'm suddenly thinking a lot of those memories were GT5 instead.
I love your channel.
In old gt6 coffee breaks didn't exist, and you couldn't buy racing suits individually. You bought a bundle that cost 50k cr. However it was a specific style with all the colors.
Wasn't that Gran Turismo 5? If I'm not wrong, in the v1.0 of Gran Turismo 6 you could already buy suits. And there were Coffee Breaks
"We don't talk about that one." Get ya on GT7, bought that on release, even pre-ordered the anniversary edition so it wouldn't look out of place next to my 15th anniversary edition of GT6. I barely touched GT7 since launch, where's B-Spec? Where's all the fun little additions that made the past entries fun?
At 15:15 the click is also called in my country as getz
