Clutch users, rejoyce! Clutch works, same style as GT5rologue, no official support, you still have to press triangle before the race, but the beauty is here.

I cant believe theres no official support for the g25 yet!!!

Some publications are not actually receiving their copy that far in advance and even of those with extra privileges probably did not get it early enough to review every aspect of the game sufficiently in time;

Gran Turismo 5 Special - PlayStation 3 News at GameSpot
Where is the Gran Turismo 5 Review? - PlayStation 3 News at IGN

And of course the mentioned embargo. For a "normal release", you would find publications publish their reviews at least a week prior to the release date. We do not get that many simultaneous worldwide releases in the gaming industry but we get two in the space of November 2010
