Can Gran Turismo 5 have an effect on your real life driving?
well I Played Gran Turismo 5 Prologue for about four hours, and then I drove to the shops. I noticed that I was driving much quicker and I kept looking for shortcuts that I can take. Is this because of Gran Turismo 5?
Sure it can because you'll have a greater tendency of getting into the mindset of having to race to get to your end destination,even to the point of taking unnecessary risks.
I would even venture to guess that driving after watching a NASCAR/Formula 1/Indy Car race can have the same effect.I know I get pretty revved up after watching a Formula 1 race! .......Man,I love the sound of those engines as they wind out and down shift, and so I jump in my Acura RSX and have at it.Vroooooom,Vrooooooooom.Hell Yeah it affects me and I'm 42 yrs old!!!!!!! BTW , Maturity has nothing to do with it.
