I like this thread. This is now the official sticky for the game. 

Keep it here folks.

I can't wait to play this game in 5 years.

This is looking to be what GT5 should have been, at the expense of not having a next gen GT for even longer now. As a fan, I'm not happy.UCF_Knight

Yup. Pretty dumb decision. Looks like poor management continues. That's been plaguing the PS3 all gen.

Holiday 2013 is when the PS4 launches. This is just stupid. They should delay it for a year or so and have done a port to the PS4 and launched it on both.

I'm interested in it. I only played Aspec and it was my first experience with racing sims at the time I wasn't a fan since I was used to arcade racers but I played some racing sims after and I liked them.

I like everything I have seen about it so far... Aside from still keeping those PS2 models. As upscaled as they are, they still show their age.Oh, and it being on PS3 not PS4.

Sony just killed drive club. :lol:

They are still keeping the PS2 models? Seriously?

That's pathetic.

They just made the PS4 irrelevant. THis is even worse than GoW2 on PS2, as at least the PS3 had BC at first. Sony... you dumbass...

Sadly so :( , it's now 750 odd PS2 cars and 450 odd PS3 cars :( . I mean they obviously look better than the PS2 models since they are not using the down-poly count models they used for GT4, but still at a fraction of polys that the proper cars have :(

Drive Club can't stand up to a well established franchise with a well known name. Drive Club will just be one of those launch titles everybody forgets about a few months after launch. GT6 won't help that.

Polyphony just killed drive club. :lol:

That is absolutely pathetic and inexcusable. Nobody should by this out of principle. They've had more than 3 years since GT5 launched. 

They just made the PS4 irrelevant.

Isn't every console irrelevant at launch? It takes about a year or two for a new console to be worth buying IMO. Hopefully Sony goes the backwards compatibility route.

People acting as if GT wasn't coming for PS4. We dont have to wait like with GT5. PS4 easier to develop for and they got many premium cars finished already.

Looks like those 2 and a half years have been dedicated to making the 200 new cars, and redoing the physics and particle engine. And the 19 new tracks. To be fair, when I thihnk about it that way, that's still more than the difference between Forza 3 and Forza 4.

Shouldn't this at the very least be a PS4 launch title since GT5 is the top selling PS3 game? odd. Also, still using PS2 models? Really?

It's sadly putting 2 and 2 together, the confirmed 1200 cars, and they also confirmed 200 new cars. This means they must have kept the PS2 models.

Well they did spend a lot of time on new tracks and the new physics. But they did confirm that nearly every car will have options for aero parts and customisation this time, so looks like we will at least be able to do more with standard cars this time.

What tracks and cars do ya'll want to see? GamingGod999

I want to see the 2012 Aston Martin Vanquish :) , also wouldn't mind seeing a decent poly version of the classic  80s Lotus Esprit. Would also like real Porsche cars this time around, but I already know that won't happen.

this game will probably be on PS4 too because, I mean, adaptive tessellation on PS3? And they talked about touch controls too....

No, but they announced 200 new cars. And they also announced 1200 cars total. And according to GT Planet: "All of the cars and tracks from Gran Turismo®5"

But the fact remains they are still lagging behind in terms of content. They are supporting old models. Between Forza 3 and Forza 4 they redid the physics, upped the graphics engines, added a bunch of tracks, and redid the entire online community, yet they did that in only 2 years. 

This is an interesting quote: " Were pleased to deliver GT6 to PlayStation 3 as we have a very loyal community on that platform. However, we have refactored the game to make it very flexible and expandable, with a view to making many future developments"

Possible PS4 release in the future?

Aston Martin = Sexii. :P

All of that being done for GT6 too. Yes they still have old models, but few models were upgraded between Forza 3 and 4 neither, and Forza 4 didn't add so many tracks and to my knowledge less cars too. GT6 is also updating it's course creator, and adding far more customisation than it used to have. I would say GT6 is looking to have more improvements.
