Just like they said it would be released in 2007, oh wait!

Just like they said it would be released in 2009, oh wait!

Just like...yeah you get the idea. Don't take anything they say as a guarantee, cause quite frankly their track record is **** and their word meaningless.

Indeed. thumbs_up.gif

We'll find out exactly how long a "little longer" is very soon.

It's sounding good. :)

NOT EXCUSABLE, PS3 STILL BEING SOLD, PD SUCKS, SONY LIES, GAME WILL BOMB, ILL BUY IT SECOND HAND IN 6 MONTHS TIME laugh.gif

Im with many, I will now wait until I can get a used copy, I will not give them my money. If Poly was not owned by Sony it would have gone out of business a long time ago, you can not do stuff like this in the real world when your existence relies on game sales.

Have you ever looked at GT sales? They make tons of money, Prologue itself sold over 4 million copies, so no they really are nowhere near going out of business laugh.gif

Seems like developers can't win these days. If they hold a game back to fix bugs and improve it they get slated, and if they release the game as fast as possible and full of bugs (ie: F1 2010 and most other games) they also get slated. Providing when it is released it has as few bugs as possible and as many features as possible, I will be happy.

I was and still am planning on getting it for Christmas.

No, this is not a "let's feel sorry for the developers" situation. A delay is fine and holding back a product to further polish it is fine. But people will get upset when it's in the extremes. Developers are either rushing their games out the door or just taking an EXTREMELY long time to get it out the door. It's not like the golden days where a product would see a one-time delay for a few months and we end up with a solid product.

Especially when it comes to one of the most ambitious racing games ever made. If the delay as it's stated so far ends up a few weeks you can look back at topics like these and see how childish some people really do act.

Yes but it's pretty clear the game is almost complete this time given the media coverage.

And the first time the game was scheduled to be released was 2008, get it right PS3 lover boy ;)

I'm pretty sure at one point it was going to be a launch title.

They wont go out of business because Sony keeps them alive. If they were an independent company they wouldn't survive, that's my point. When you do not have the customers to worry about or even selling a game in the last 4 years you can make decisions with no fear or repercussions. Regardless they wont see a penny of my money, I will buy used.

You do that, stick it to the man! :p

Won't matter anyway, the game will most likely sell 10 million+.

Title / Units (K)*

----------------------------------------

Gran Turismo = 10,850

Gran Turismo 2 = 9,370

Gran Turismo 3 A-spec = 14,890

Gran Turismo Concept Series = 1,560

Gran Turismo 4 ?Prologue? = 1,400

Gran Turismo 4 = 11,060

Gran Turismo 5 ?Prologue? = 4,950

Gran Turismo PSP = 1,960

Total = 56,040

According to polyphony.co.jp

If you count sale to sale ratio with gt4 , gt 5 sale will be over 14 mill :laugh: (just jk btw). GT series has been a really good in it own right, but gt5 being big as it is it's hard to me to fathom what the developers has to go thru to implement the new 3.5 restriction.

Well if the other topic is to be believed they want to have around 7 million copies ready for shipping for a worldwide release - http://www.neowin.ne...ecurity-breach/

That's a headache of an issue repressing all those discs :laugh: Sucks to be Sony right now, however as I said in there developers/publishers will do anything to help curve day 1 piracy, even if that means stirring up the hornets nests which are online gaming forums. If the game is AAA I'm sure they're happy to put up with a few extra weeks of bitching if week 1 sales are going to be in the 7 million bracket.

More Info

Possibly, we'll be really in the game. Anyone remembers 2006 GTHD project that was canned? Here is one very old promo-screen where rally driver is actually walking around the car. Surprises are apparently awaiting:

gthd5_qjpreviewth.jpg

Now this:

Eph5m3wkNfRSWNw.jpg

Screen above says we'll be able to change the clothes (remember Tourist Trophy? Now we see the guy walking around in civil clothes in the new trailer and if you remember on of the first screens form Nurburgring, there was a guy driving an SLR in civil clothes with sunglasses on).

Here is the translation:

"First, select a clothing style worn by the driver(A-SPEC DRIVER)

Please note that clothing once selected, can not be changed again" (thanx to Whknky at GTPlanet)

If the photo for the "User" can be replaced with the PSEye snapshot of our beautiful faces, than it is plausible we'll be able to "exist" in the very game (something like Loeb's face exists in his races inside Special Hall).

Sceen above is apparently a real GUI screen for the very beggining of the game - 20,000 credits as a pile for start.

Global servers confirmed (dedicated?) in the article linked below.

And they're mentioning only 20 tracks in the article again. Hm, hm.

Thanx to Shirakawa Akira and Whknky at GTPlanet for the info and especially Whknky for various translations.

is it wrong that i want to have relations with the GTR?

Is it wrong that I want to be wearing a housecoat, smoking a cigar and sipping 40yr old whiskey out of this?

Probably not, but some will see us as weird.

    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.

    • Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Only a few weeks ago, Sega and Creative Assembly dropped a teaser for a new Alien Isolation. Today at Summer Game Fest, Alien: Isolation 2 was officially announced with a new trailer while also confirming a whole lot of information about the setting of this survival horror project. Check out the reveal trailer above. Leaving behind the Sevastopol space station, the sequel will take players to a remote colony world. With a Xenomorph (or more) on the loose, players will be navigating both the surface of the weather-ravaged planet as well as "the claustrophobic confines of the Weyland-Yutani outpost of Kurosaki Station." Interestingly, Creative Assembly is leaving behind Amanda Ripley, the daughter of Alien's Ellen Ripley, as the protagonist too. While it hasn't confirmed a name yet, players will be taking the role of a new character for this new adventure. The setting is also being described as a new hunting ground for the Alien. This will have players improvising and developing new tools to aid in their survival and escape, all to avoid "cinema’s deadliest killer." "It has been over a decade since we created the original Alien: Isolation and I am so excited to show everyone the first glimpse of the sequel," says Al Hope, Creative Director at Creative Assembly. "Our dedicated Survival team at Creative Assembly has been working hard to create a new, evolved Isolation experience continuing the legacy of the Alien franchise, making the eponymous killer smarter, the environment harsher and the chance of survival slimmer." Promising the same deadly tension from the original from over a decade ago, Alien: Isolation 2 is in development for PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced yet.
