[TGS] Gran Turismo 5: March 2010 in Japan


Recommended Posts

nobody on any forums talks about that, it'll come out when its ready, i dont see anyone crying about it not coming out this year.... gt on the other hand is talked about daily

gt is sonys big title, has been in production for 5 years and is still going to miss the christmas timeframe? might as well come out with prologue 2 demo and release it in christmas 2010, wouldnt suprise me

The only past GT releases to make Christmas were

GT1 (Japan only) - 23rd December

GT2 (Japan and North America only) - 11th, 23rd December

Every European release has been after Christmas, along with the rest of the Japanese/American copies not listed above within Q1/Q2 of a year. It's never really been a Christmas title.

The game will sell well whenever it's released. It would've helped move more PS3s for Christmas, but as a software entity it'll sell no matter what month you put it out in. It's Sony's Halo or Modern Warfare, doesn't matter what month it releases in it's going to move copies.

In other news, :drool:

Mercedes SLS AMG cockpit gameplay (60 fps) and replay

Animated pit crew is a nice touch!

Green Lotus Espirit spotted in a video (first time confirmation of car I think)

and it looks like they are starting to add damage to non racing cars, albeit just scratches and scores for now, no body deformation.

Showing off the pit crew in HD

From chespace, the Forza community manager

The 458 Italia wasn't playable but I did see it in the screensaver mode on a big monitor and it looked damn good. I tried the SLS build and crashed the car repeatedly with incremental damage texture results (scratches and scrapes on fender and hood) but no model deformation that I could see and no doors and hood popping. I could be wrong and this car could have full damage but I crashed the hell out of it for a few minutes and all I saw were textures for scratches. The SLS did have a cockpit view. Makes me wonder whether or not it'll be like this for the full game where there will be 1000 cockpits and some cars (race cars) will have 3D damage while the remainder will just have texture damage with no deformation.

Textural damage is better than nothing on the non-rally cars, as long as every crash from every car affects your driving.

If true that's probably one of the reasons for December to March, there definitely wasn't texture damage at E3 on any car apart from racing cars.

edit: The SLS is the mercedes above by the way.

On the UK GT site, the list on the Japanese site has been put up, and it says GT5 the release has been announced as March 2010, but doesn't mention that this was Japan only.

Clarification please...

Gamespot is going to tour PD offices tomorrow, hopefully some more info

On Saturday, September 26 (in Japan), GameSpot will be heading to Polyphony Digital to check out more of GT5 and talk with series creator Kazunori Yamauchi. If you've got a question or two about the game, put it in the comments below, and who knows, we just might be able to get it answered on your behalf.

Not really related to TGS, but a cool video comparing GT4 to GT5 on the same circuit/with same car.

Shows how decent looking a game GT4 was, but also how good GT5 looks :)

This place is no joke. From having one of the largest server processing rooms (and cools Kazunori?s wine collection), an elevator that lifts cars into the studio, to a hotel for staff to sleep ? Polyphony Digital is one of the most interesting studios I?ve ever visited.

Series creator Kazunori Yamauchi says that there will be even more features in the game revealed later, including PlayStation Eye camera support.
Wow they really run circles around Forza with that lighting. They just freakin' nail the light. Thanks to that lighting alone these cars look much more realistic. Forza ones do feel still a lot like plastic which I:(ate :(

Yeah the lighting is the strong point of PDs engine, check this replay from GT5 Prologue

Glad I raced out and got a PS3 to get this game, which STILL isn't out... now that they FELL over 60% in their value, AND the game still isn't out I feel ripped off. Kinda the same feeling with the PSP, 6.8 rating on a Gran Turismo game?? wtf sony?!

Get used to that feeling.

So anyone clock the Zonda R on the last page?

tgs_340_64553_640screen.jpg

Check this car out, it's a beast. Listen to those engine sounds :| Hope it's in GT5!

... that office. W-to the-O-to the-W.

Yeah the office has been detailed before, it is absolutely nuts. There is genuinely a hotel in the middle of it lmao :laugh:

no offense, but you ran out to get a console for a game that didn't have a release date?

Bit silly don't you think?

You can't say things like that Boz, you'll cause a riot!

This is the one thing that GT5 certainly has over other games, the graphical realism is second to none. Nothing comes close to it in my opinion on consoles. I'm sure a high end PC could possibly wipe the floor with it, although looking at some vids I would wonder.

It's a BIG disappointment with the release date, but thankfully will still have a few big games coming out before then to see us through. Not long now till Uncharted 2 hits! :D

Yeah I'm pretty sure there's not too much difference between textures, well, obviously GT5 Prologue runs at a higher resolution, but the lighting makes things look worlds apart at times,

720p HD comparison video of Forza 3 Demo/GT5 Prologue with same cars

Keeping in mind that's prologue from 2007, GT5 vids above already look better and they've fixed/improved a lot, especially in removing that annoying tire screeching :laugh:

GT5 will win the beauty contest, but they've got to improve on the engine sounds/physics/damage to catch up on Forza. They say they are, we'll need to wait a bit longer to see.

    • OpenClaw now has native mobile apps on iOS and Android by Karthik Mudaliar OpenClaw, the viral open-source personal AI agent, now has its own mobile app, available on both Android and iOS. Users can pair the app with an existing OpenClaw gateway and can start using new mobile-native features that are now available on the app. The app supports all the existing features you'd already have seen on OpenClaw's TUI, as well as some more, such as real-time and background Talk mode, action approvals, sharing from iOS, and optional access to device capabilities such as camera, screen, location, photos, contacts, calendar, and reminders. These features are available on both the Android and iOS versions of the app. What's important with these apps is that they don't run OpenClaw on your phone, but are actually just companion apps that require a running OpenClaw Gateway on an existing device, on macOS, Linux, or Windows via WSL2. To pair the app with your existing OpenClaw gateway, users need to run the command "/pair qr" on the TUI or existing chat interface, which brings up a QR code. Users can then scan this QR code to pair it up with the mobile app. There's also an option to manually pair the app by entering the host and a port. Previously, OpenClaw had been available on phones via WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, Matrix, and others. Now, with a native mobile app, the interface is much cleaner and more focused on just the OpenClaw, of course, with the added support for camera, screen, location, and more. It's important to note that OpenClaw comes with its own security warnings. There's always a chance of prompt injection with these tools, so users are recommended to double-check authentication, tool policy, sandboxing, and execution approvals rather than prompts alone. For users well-versed with the AI harness, a native mobile app makes it easier to approve an automation, share a link, use voice, or let an agent react to phone-side context.
    • Google pitches Spanner as one database for all AI agents with these new featues by Karthik Mudaliar Google Cloud is introducing new features within Spanner, its distributed database, as a place where enterprises should keep their data, using which AI agents could make smarter and better decisions. In a detailed blog post, Google highlighted quite a few features coming to Spanner, including relational data, graph relationships, vector search, key-value access, full-text search, and operational analytics together in one database architecture. Google says that today's systems aren't well-made for AI agents. There could be data that is present in one system, search indexes in another, embeddings in a vector database, and relationship data in a graph database. This fragmentation isn't great for AI agents to do their jobs because they don't have access to all of this data in one place. This is where Google is positioning Spanner as a solution. Spanner is already a globally distributed relational database with strong consistency, and Google wants its customers to see it as a broader data layer for AI applications. The company introduced something called Spanner Graph, along with integrated vector search, full-text search, a Cassandra-compatible key-value endpoint, and a columnar engine for analytical queries on operational data. Google also added that its ScaNN-powered vector search can support indexes with more than 10 billion vectors, while the columnar engine can make some analytical scans up to 200 times faster. All of this isn't just exclusive to the Google Cloud Platform, and there's support for multi-cloud as well. This comes via Spanner Omni, which Google says is a downloadable, containerized version of Spanner that can run on Kubernetes and in environments outside Google Cloud, including Microsoft Azure and AWS, and even on-premises infrastructure as well as edge deployments. Google says that customers who are interested in the full-featured edition should contact the company, and there's no word on commercial availability or separate pricing. Those interested can read the full blog by Google Cloud, which details these features individually.

    • They have lots of info on me, I have a facebook account and have done so for years, it was the thing to have then. My phone number is not on it. I don't have the Facebook app on my phone these days, just the messenger part, and only for a couple of people to contact me, most will text me via SMS or phone. I agree, Meta, like others, even without an account will know something about me. Just have to try and keep some things private Also, never saw the need for Whatsapp, people used to ask for me to join it, but as I said to them, I have SMS and a phone, use that, or email
