まもなく発売日が発表されそうだ。うぉ・・・シビレるぜ・・・。

Translated via google that means:

Release date is likely to be announced shortly. Let U O Reru Sibi.

Hopefully a 24th Nov Release. :)

Release confirmed

It’s about time! After more than enough debate, rumour and speculation, it’s finally here.

Sony has now confirmed that the new release date for Gran Turismo 5 is November 24th. Since the delay Sony has certainly benefited from the huge amount of coverage for the highly anticipated racer, but now with just two weeks to go until it’s release, expect Gran Turismo 5 everything to be on you like a rash.

The wait is finally over. After a last minute delay on the game which was first shown way back in 2005, fans of Sony’s most successful franchise began to despair that the title would slip further and further down the calendar and into next year. However, Sony has announced an official release date for Gran Turismo 5, and its going to hit this year.

Sony have revealed the release date of the highly anticipated racing sim – Wednesday, November 24th. Coming out just in time for Christmas, as well as Black Friday in the States, the game is set to break all PlayStation 3 exclusive games’ sales records.

Will you be getting GT5? Let us know in the comments below.

Well they don't have much time to get that fixed Munky wink.gif

Think I will be booking the day off for this one :) Sadly can't see supermarkets doing anything with it, as there is no real competition across platforms.

Definitely confirmed now from PS EU Blog.

Good Afternoon Everybody

?Chotto Matte? is a Japanese expression for ?wait a little? and it?s a phrase that we have had to express a few times in relation to Gran Turismo over the last few weeks. Well Gran Turismo fans,the waiting is almost over and we are very thankful for your patience.

Today I am delighted to confirm that Gran Turismo 5 will be released in the PAL markets on Wednesday 24th November.

Kazunori Yamauchi, creator of Gran Turismo shared the following thoughts on what has been an epic and challenging development process.

?Gran Turismo 5 is an ambitious project, with challenges and complexities which have made it our version of the Apollo Space Programme! When we created the original Gran Turismo back in 1997, we wanted to set a completely new precedent for the racing genre. With the technological leap onto PlayStation 3, our objective with GT5 was to create another great revolution which would not only satisfy our own high expectations, but would meet or even exceed the anticipation of the fans. Satisfying the loyal Gran Turismo followers is at the heart of all of our efforts, which is why it was such a difficult decision to delay the release of the game, and one which we did not take lightly. I can only apologise to everyone for making you wait so long, and I hope that when you try out the wealth of driving experiences available in Gran Turismo 5, you will not be disappointed.?

Alongside today?s confirmation of the date (finally)? I can also share with you the full car and track list. Check out PlayStation.com shortly. Amongst the car list you will see some exhilarating debutants to the GT virtual garage including the Bugatti and Lamborghini, whilst amongst the tracks you will see some familiar favourites including the Mazda Laguna Seca track, and Trial Mountain alongside new tracks such as the Madrid city track and Cape Ring.

Check out below a trailer that celebrates one of the features that we hope will make your GT experience that little bit more engrossing ? a virtual garage of over 1000 cars!

November 24th is sooner than I expected. I thought it would get pushed into December for sure.

In any event, I'm glad that the wait is almost over. I was contemplating getting Black Ops and/or Hot Pursuit, but now I may as well just wait for this. It's going to feel so weird finally getting to play this game after all of the drama :).

So that is 98 tracks on 27 courses. On average, that is 3.62 "variations/cut outs/mirrors/weather/shortened versions" for each course.

Yeah I'm debating, Signature available at Game, not aware of any stores that will be stocking the Collectors edition though.

In-store I have only seen Game advertise it, however Gamestation have it advertised on their website. Gameplay have it for ?149.99. Really unsure as ?149.99 is a lot to spend!

Yeah the main draw for me is the 200 page book that you get in the Collectors anyway. Still debating this :( My birthday on the Friday too! :)

    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
    • 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.
