New GT5 info

[02BlueGT]

thats been under the grand turismo name since like 98

nothing new there.

Oh, I've only ever played 4, and I haven't really looked at any boxes

oh geez. were you using controller or wheel? keep in mind the totally stock car has like no traction control on and some kind of sport tires on it, not r-comps. and is rwd. it's trying to actually force you to behave and drive better. some differences i have felt between gt5 pro and gt5 demo (neither of which i have played much nor am very good at):
if half your wheels are in the grass and half on the road and you brake while going straight, i don't think prologue does much to you, whereas demo will punish you (at least with that traction control off)
in prologue i have been fairly binary with the throttle; full on full off a lot of the time. in demo i found myself having to go more halfsies while rounding tighter turns and easing into the throttle while coming out of them.
lots of gas or brake in turns in demo = punishment, which is a lot more realistic.

Ehh, controller. I dont have a fancy schmancy driving wheel.

I managed a 1:39.9 w a controller, its 4 seconds off the best so its not that great. it is possible to drive the car though even with a controller. I think you'd have more prescision w the wheel and pedals though and im sure the top guy has those. As far as gt5 being any good? I just hope the selection of cars isn't a bunch of repeat GTRs and useless civics and silvias. Trans am and 03-04 cobra is all they really need to put in there, but I have a feeling they're going to leave those two cars out. other than that, the graphics are going to be good enough, the game plays like it should, and theres a lot of variety, theres no reason why this wont be any good.

You did a lap about 2 minutes faster then me.

the real only reason this game wont be good is cause alot of people think forza is the end all of racing games and cant allow another game to be within 100 yards of their forza. i personally can and will enjoy both games and not nit pick it to no end. i dont care if its on so and so system or made by so and so company. a good game is a good game no matter if its on the dreaded ps3 or not.

this is kind of turning into a joke now

January 12, 2010 - Citing "production-related matters" the much anticipated racing title from Polyphony Digital will no longer be shipping this coming March in Japan.

Reuters is reporting Sony has delayed the release of Gran Turismo 5 to an unspecified date, which the company plans to update in the future.

Sony had yet to announce release dates for North American and European territories, but this news certainly doesn't bode well for fans anticipating a March worldwide release.

IGN has contacted SCEA for additional comment and info. We'll keep you updated.

Forza 4 will be coming out before gt5

 

[Mook]

supposedly this delay only applies to japan...but it was coming out in japan before the US soooo one would assume, the delay is worldwide

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

Forza 4 will be coming out before gt5

PS4 will come out before gt5

 

[Handsome Jesus]

the world will end before gt5

 

[transmaxed]

I really liked the demo, it grabbed my attention instantly. I would really like to hear a turbo car, as that is something GT4 really fucked up. As well as engine tones, but so far so good.

 

[Handsome Jesus]

I honestly thought forza 3 kinda sucked in the sound department... anyone else think so?

 

[Mook]

no

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

So this means I'll never buy a ps3. Thanks Gt5

 

[CamaroSS]

more time for me to play the numerous games coming out in the next few months

PS3>XBOX

 

[importcrew]

PS4 will come out before gt5

ps4 would come out before gt5 in which would further delay the game even more so they can "revamp" the game to utilize the ps4 performance.

 

[Riski]

Panda will lose is V card before GT5 comes out!

Panda will lose is V card before GT5 comes out!

Panda will probably have grandkids before GT5 comes out.

they did much better than forza 2, but IMO they r not on par with with other games

 

[CamaroSS]

good enough for my tastes, coulda been better. nfs games have done a far better job in sounds over the years, but forza still gets the job done

 

[Freebeer187]

I love free online play.

Guess what? Puxatony Phil saw his shadow and Sony announced another delay for Gran Turismo 5 in the same week. Oh, the irony. In an interview with Spanish site Canarias Al Dia, CEO of Sony Entertainment Portugal James Armstrong reportedly revealed another disappointing delay for the highly anticipating driving simulation game. Armstrong allegedly said Sony is aiming to have GT5 on store shelves before Christmas, and that the "priority is to make this game with the best quality as possible." Does this mean that Sony and Polyphony Digital are struggling to work out bugs before the all-too-important game is unleashed on the consumer? It sure sounds that way.

If you're at all like us, you're wondering by now whether GT5 will ever see the light of day. The highly hyped, multi-format racing game was supposed to be released in the fall of 2009, then in March of 2010. Now we're talking sometime before December. Note to Sony and Polyphony Digital: Don't publish truck loads of teasers, videos and screen shots more than a year in advance of the big kid console version of the game finds its way onto store shelves. It's just mean.

Eat it, Armstrong
