I dont have a lot of time to game anymore, so it comes at a sacrifice. I am thinking maybe I should just wait to make that sacrifice until GT5, rather than use up all that time on GT Prologue.
My advice is that you pick it up. The game is for only a certain type of person, and I think you fit the bill. You have a couple things going for you:

1. you seem to be a big fan that would appreciate it . . . I don't think casual racing fans would be as into it as a true GT fan.

2. You don't have a whole lot of time. One of the biggest gripes people have is that it doesn't have as much content to keep people going. I'm kind of like you, I don't have a huge amount of time, so the games that people complain about regarding length actually take me a real long time to finish.

I think it's important to know the games limitations before jumping in. 6 tracks, 70 cars and a pretty rusty online system. I've had no bad experiences online but I've heard some rough stories. Not a huge amount of content for 40$, but if you're a fan and don't feel like waiting for another year, my recommendation is to pick it up. If you're strapped for cash or don't consider yourself a big GT fan, I'd say pass.

I'm enjoying it quite a bit thus far.
