Gran Turismo 4 dated for Europe

European gamers anxious to get their hands on one of the year's most anticipated driving games got some good news today. Sony Computer Entertainment Europe announced that Gran Turismo 4 will hit store shelves of PAL regions March 9. The PlayStation 2-exclusive game has been relegated back to the shop several times, delaying the game for more than a year. Gran Turismo 4 was released in Japan on December 28 and is enjoying impressive sales numbers, even though it missed the holiday window. There is still no official release date for the driving simulator stateside, but according to Sony, North America can expect Gran Turismo 4 sometime in the first quarter of 2005.
