Gran Turismo 6 Thoughts/Predictions


Recommended Posts

I don't recall MS actually buying exclusivity on TopGear. not for the track anyway. for a while they both had the license. sure PD simply decided not to renew ? if MS bought exclusivity you'd think they would announe they had exclusivity and not just that they had a license. or maybe they upgraded to exclusivity for Forza 5.

Indeed. (Y) I'm pretty certain Microsoft don't have any exclusivity on the Top Gear Test Track at least, as Slightly Mad Studios (the ones making Project CARS) have recently been considering adding it into the game after the recent deal they struck with McLaren, who in their words, have strong ties to the track.

you're never done with a car game, you abandon it for the next one. and the cars int he DLC packs shouldn't be considered as part of the price for the game anyway, they're optional expansions. you buy the ones you want, none at all, or everyone if you're a collector. 

 

as for the price of them. if you ever did any 3D modelling. especially with the fact these have to be accurate and have movable and correct parts everywhere, textures and physics accurate as well as sounds. the car packs are anything but expensive, there's a serious amount of man hours going into them.

I wonder how long how long Polyphony is going to take to release a Gran Turismo 7 for the PS4? If Gran Turismo 5 was launched with the PS3, there could have been a GT6 released in 2009/10. Then there could have been a GT7 for the PS4.

 

Here is an in game screenshot from the alpha version.

That must be Gran Turismo 9 on the Playstation 5

I too love Gran Turismo and my PS3 but that looks like a photograph :laugh:  

 

Nah, but it's also not "in game" graphics. it is, but it isn't....  live action graphics won't be quite that good, photo/replay mode has a lot of extra filters, details and AA that you don't get during actual gameplay. 

 

same with all racing games, and they're usually advertised with " in game" graphics from replay and photo mode :/

Indeed. Same story even with Forza 5. When I played it at GAME it looked nothing like the ad they're running right now boasting "in-game graphics".

 

Right now, I'd say the best looking racer is Project CARS, and that's still in the pre-alpha stage...

 

Fortunately for next-gen console owners, it's coming to all of them (yep, even the Wii U).

    • "...but it may not be Microsoft's fault" seems like a reasonable way to tease what is going on without leaving the user with a false impression that an update is the problem. A title isn't a summery, it is meant to entice the user to read the article. It should not contain a misleading premise; which this title does not. You could maybe complain that the first paragraph should have included that detail. The writing style popularized over 100 years ago in newspapers will cover the most important information as soon as possible with details and nuance added later; the idea being that with each new paragraph you have less of the reader's focus.
    • Samsung Galaxy XR arrives in the UK with new AI and enterprise features by Fiza Ali Samsung is bringing its Galaxy XR headset to the UK several months after the device made its debut as the first headset built on Google's Android XR platform. The headset was first teased in late 2024 alongside Google's introduction of Android XR before making its commercial debut in 2025. Developed in collaboration with Google and Qualcomm, Galaxy XR combines mixed reality experiences with Gemini-powered AI features, allowing users to interact with digital content using voice, gestures, and visual inputs. While the hardware itself remains largely unchanged from the version Samsung unveiled last year, the company is using the UK launch to spotlight several software enhancements that have arrived through recent updates. Among the most notable additions is deeper integration with Google's ecosystem. Galaxy XR users can explore destinations through Google Maps' Immersive View, receiving AI-powered recommendations and contextual information from Gemini while navigating virtual environments. Furthermore, entertainment experiences have also expanded; users can watch 180-degree and 360-degree videos on YouTube, browse spatial content converted into 3D, and ask Gemini questions about on-screen content without interrupting playback. Samsung is also highlighting mixed-reality features such as Circle to Search, which allows users to identify real-world objects through hand gestures while using the headset's video pass-through mode. Another feature automatically converts photos and videos into spatial 3D experiences. Moreover, the headset now also supports Android Enterprise, allowing organisations to manage deployments using existing Android management tools. Annika Bizon, Vice President, Product and Marketing, Mobile Experience, Samsung UK & Ireland, talked about the device, stating: The headset is powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 platform and features dual 4K Micro-OLED displays. The tech giant says that users can expect up to 2.5 hours of battery life. Samsung also confirmed that Galaxy XR will continue receiving software and security updates as the company works alongside Google and Qualcomm to expand the Android XR ecosystem. Galaxy XR is now available for pre-order and will go on sale on 8 July. Customers interested in trying the headset before launch can visit Samsung KX in London and selected Samsung Experience Stores from 17 June. Finally, the company will also host a livestream on 19 June showcasing the headset's capabilities and answering questions from prospective customers.
