A West Virginia woman has filed a law suit against Polyphony Digital, the makers of the Gran Turismo series, after she made a bad purchase based on Gran Turismo 4 statistics.
She said that she included the game as one of the major factors in her buying decision to purchase a VW Golf GTi, but found after a few days of driving, the handling and speed did not match that of the game. She then took it for a refund to her dealership, but they turned her down for the simple reason that not being satisfied with the performance was not a good enough reason for a return.
"I liked playing Gran Turismo 4 and felt that most of the cars handled like real life cars, so when I came across the GTi, I thought the real life car would handle the same, but when I took it for a drive after the first few days I bought it, it did not drive like what I thought it would" - Sally McPherson.
The case was filed on July 28th in the West Virginia Circuit Court. So far, there has been no word from Polyphony Digital.
