This was the final paragraph in the latest GT5 press release:

Gran Turismo 5 will contain more than 1000 perfectly recreated cars ranging from the latest supercars to the cars of NASCAR and WRC. Standing proud will be the fastest car in the game - and one of the fastest to ever leave the drawing board - the Red Bull X1. Earn your chance to drive the Red Bull X1 when Gran Turismo 5 goes on sale later this year.

Hopefully this indicates too that it might come this year...

Try this tag instead, will embed Youtube videos in the 16:9 format instead of 4:3, and you just use the code at the end of the video url.

Magic. :D

So we should hear about the new release date today, yeah?

Perhaps they will delay the announcement :p .

I just watched that rally footage. I'm not a great Gran Turismo player by any stretch of the imagination, but that guy looked like he may have been drunk. What the hell was he doing from the 1:20 mark onward? And I'm not going to lie, that invisible wall was a bit of a turn off. Minor nitpicks, though. I don't intend on hitting the wall during my races anyways ;).

Try racing while having the camera set in the view that shows what's behind you + the front of the car. The people that drive in those demos are usually trying to show off the graphics/damage done to the car, so they have to deal with adjusting the camera angle in the game while driving.

Uh they said they would announce it after Black Friday which is November 26th.

No, they said they'd announce a new date before the end of the month, and were aiming for a US launch 8 to 12 days after Black Friday.

Eurogamer and others then started predicting Dec 3rd and 8th.

    • It's time to say goodbye to Edge and switch back to Firefox. There's no way to disable the ugly rounded corners that appear everywhere. Not even on the page frame. No one uses screens with rounded corners, you idiots.
    • Being on Github makes it more trustable since I can see the code at any point.
    • Gen Atlas is the next game from Shadow of the Colossus creator, this time with giant robots by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The mind behind widely well-received games like Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, and The Last Guardian, Fumito Ueda, showed up at Summer Game Fest today, and that was to reveal his latest project. Being developed by genDESIGN, Gen Atlas is incoming with what looks to be plenty of mech and robot action. Watch the reveal trailer, which makes not much sense, above. The game will have players waking up on an abandoned planet where deserted facilities and grand designs from the original creators remain. Soon, they will stumble upon a colossal robot, from which players gain access to the power to change the world. "Across an endless expanse of time, the remnants of those forgotten constructs begin to move once more," adds the studio. The gameplay snippets seen in the trailer show the player character climbing giant robots (as expected from the creator), while also controlling these titans somehow as well. This is a fully single-player open-world adventure. “The team and I are grateful to all the fans who’ve been eager to learn more about our game,” says Fumito Ueda, CEO and creative director of genDESIGN. “Their passion and enthusiasm has always motivated and inspired us. We hope to share an experience that inspires moments of quiet wonder and discovery.” Before gaining the name Gen Atlas, Ueda first announced this project back in 2024 with the codename Project Robot. Interestingly, this will be a project being funded and published by Epic Games, which should mean that a Steam release is out of the question. Gen Atlas will be releasing on Epic Games Store, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced just yet.
    • How backwards can you have it? Yes, Linux was gaining because of Linux handhelds and the push for gaming compatibility, but that's not desktop users, it barely converts anyone who owns a SteamDeck, though it helps for those who wanted to do it, but anyways, the AI+RAM debacle helped Linux because people can't easily upgrade their PCs easily and many hate AI so they'd be incentivized to try Linux.
