There’s been a lot of coverage of video games and related things lately at CarThrottle. We recently completed a review on Need for Speed Shift, our first ever video game review. Gran Turismo (this time 5) is another huge racing franchise that is set for a launch next year.

Until then, the public relations team has been in full effect to whet everyone’s appetites. The creator of the game recently lapped the Nurburgring in a Lexus IS-F. Last month, they put out a promotional video that I missed for the Play Station Portable game in Japan.

It shows a 1969 Corvette and 1988 Lamborghini Countach bumping into each other on the track. Is it real or not? Some things say yes, some not -- like the fact that the PSP’s graphics aren’t this good. Post your thoughts in the comments!
