Apparently, this game has been in development for over FIVE years now , that's even longer than Killzone 2 . To put i this in perspective , TES4 Oblivion was in development for 3 years and it was a huge RPG. There's not even multiplayer or free roaming.This game is looking worse and worse as time moves along. Back in E3 2005 I actually had high hopes for the game until now :?

Graphically....the game has undoubtly improved. Compare trailers if you don't believe- it's quite noticable. As far as game goes, no. It looks good. No, it's not mutliplayer...but no one was expecting it to be. As far as the free roaming quality, no it isn't- but they said it was to improve gameplay, which makes sense and is completely reasonable. Gameplay during night levels is said to be more linear. Daytime levels have exploration.

if the games not ready then the games not ready

things happen and ideas change

alot of people think too human was in development for 10 years....the too human we got was NOT in development for that long, the first idea of too human was completely different than the idea now

can't say the same for alan wake, but you get the idea....things happen, bugs happen, stuff like that

i'd rather have a polished game than a rushed one just to please impatient fans

Guerrilla made a PSP game within that time , and Polyphony made Tourist Trophy and GT PSP after GT4. It's been quite awhile since Max Payne 2 for Remedy.

I disagree, I liked the story quite a bit, they just didn't finish it yet- Too Human 2 please (it did sell prett well!). The death scene was annoying though, but I learned not to die.

I don't care how long it takes, I think the game looks sweet, kind of like Cursed Mountain with its horror vibe.

Remedy is a very small team and they are taking their time (the when its done approach). And it will come out good unlike that pile of crap called Killzone 2.

IHow long after Death Rally did they start on Max Payne?

think they started right after because MP 1 came out in 2001 and it supposedly took 5 years. Then 2 years for MP 2. Which makes sense. I mean remedy's games have been well polished and damn good so I don't mind them taking their time.

Oh, and just to add why I like it so much, I bought it for $10. Now, regardless, it's a great game, but it is short (although very replayable), but I might think different had i bought it for $60

I'm sorry, but that "pile of crap" got a 9/10 and IIRC, it wont the most "Best of 2009" awards out of any game.

Alan wake still has free roaming, and their hasn't been any multiplayer announced, so I dont understand your arguments about it being downgraded.

GT5 entered development back in 2005 before the PS3 was released. According to wiki: In an April 2008 interview, Kaz revealed that 150 people had worked on Gran Turismo 5 for three years..", which would mean development started back in 2005 around GT4's release date, with a very large work force.

I knew someone would say this ( :P ) but there is nothing I found positive about this game besides its mp being above average. Maybe it's just the elitist in me but this game is over rated trash that was hyped through the roof pretty much based on graphics. Story... Bland .... Characters .... Atrocious .... Gunplay .... meh .... Set pieces .... poor .... Innovation .... none to be found (and don't say that cover system). I didn't count the overall winner of most awards but I skimmed through them and I disagree with all of them where K2 won go figure. I'd give it a 7.5 or and 8.0 if I felt like being nice. It wasn't even close to as good as Uncharted 2, Demon's Souls, or Ratchet.

They still took time to develop, which is my point. I'm not saying they were blockbusters.

almost all of those "games" are apart of GT5's development and make up assets that are apart of GT5 itself. the only full games developed where tourist trophy which was developed in a year, and is a PS2 title, and GT5PSP which according to most reviews felt rushed which would suggest that it had a short development cycle as well. It would be like saying Halo Reach only had 1 year of development because a much smaller bungie team made ODST, while infact the game has had a large amount of people working on it for several years and will have a total dev cycle of 3 years, just like GT5 which has had over 100 people working on it since 2005.

yeah kinda funny how there have been 5 nfs, 2 dirts, grid, 2 forzas and 4 or so race 07 games during the time gt5 has been in development. the longer it takes nfs the better the competition gets.

Not sure why your name closely resembles the real Dracula68 but anyways... I'm looking forward to it. The later it comes, the better for me, money is real tight for me.

Took Valve 6 years to make Half-Life 2. Took them 9 years to make Team Fortress 2. Probably going to take PD over 6 to make GT5. Games are not judged by their development times, they're judged by the final products.
