Is it still worth playing?

Polyphony Digital's 2001 racing simulation for the PlayStation 2, and the third Gran Turismo. It has 180 vehicles and 19 race courses, 14 with reverse variants and 4 dirt tracks. Gran Turismo Mode, called Simulation Mode in North America, is a structured sequence of races and challenges from short events to multi hour endurance and rally events, and each 25 percent of completion awards a car, with car shops organized by country then manufacturer. Arcade Mode is organized in stages of five to six tracks, and completing a stage unlocks the next. A progression of races, license tests and championships tied to unlocking cars still gives a career a clear path today.
