Sony's GT5 (Gran Turismo 5) UK TV ad banned until 'gameplay footage' is changed - PS3 (you can watch it here!)

The UK Advertsing Standards Authority has upheld complaints against Sony's GT5 (Gran Turismo 5) TV advert including 'Actual gameplay footage'. The footage was mainly taken from replay mode, using 'premium' high resolution cars only, not the standard cars in the majority of the game.


Here it is in crappy Low resolution - anyone have a High Resolution version? - email me


"Because the majority of the footage was from the replay option rather than from actual game-play, and the image quality was therefore superior to what would be experienced during game-play, we concluded that the ad was misleading."

Sony have been told the Ad must NOT appear again in it's current form.
