Today is finally the day, friends. Those of you who have been waiting patiently for years can now run out and buy Gran Turismo 5. With a thousand cars, a shit-ton of tracks, kart racing and Nascar, you can’t deny that GT5 packs more content than most games for the price tag. But did waiting so long cause your interest to dwindle for the game? Do you even care that it’s finally out for purchase today?

Some of you have moved over to the Forza series on the Xbox 360. The flagship racer on Microsoft’s platform has iterated a few times in the span between GT4 and today (with a sprinkling of GT5 Prologue in between). Others have just become disinterested overall in the racing genre. Some of you have gotten heavily invested in racing wheels and peripherals on the Xbox 360, so doing the same on the PS3 would be cost prohibitive.

I used to be a huge Gran Turismo fan, but today’s release doesn’t have me jumping out of my seat like the series did in the days of yore. Yes, I legitimately just used that phrase. And yes, I will still be buying GT5, but I’m going in with some trepidation. GT5 Prologue didn’t do much for me at all and the PSP version, while a solid racer, lacked any semblance of a cohesive career mode. If GT5 follows down that path, you can bet I’ll be putting the game down quickly instead of going for 100% completion like I did in previous Gran Turismo’s.

We want to hear from you. What are your thoughts on the frequent delays in the Gran Turismo series? Are you grabbing the game today or putting it on your Holiday Wish List? Or are you passing by altogether because you prefer tea bagging noobs in Call of Duty?
