It looks like it's been delayed again, hopefully it makes it in Fall 2010 at the latest. Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if it got delayed into 2011, but if there's a god it won't be... I apologize if this has already been posted :P.

That's pretty embarrassing, and frankly inexcusable. This better be the greatest racing game to ever grace a console.

It has been posted already - but I assume we'll be seeing this quite frequently over the coming days.

Whether or not GT5 comes out in 2010, there's still quite a number of other promising PS3 exclusives coming out this year... Unless they decide to delay God of War 3 as well.

Yep.

If they continue on this path it'll meet the same fate of Duke Nukem Forever. A constant strive for perfection leads to failure, they're overdeveloping.

Haha, yeah. I noticed right after I posted it. If it's the same one, it was in Japanese with a weak translation, this one offers a tad more details. : )

I hope the reason for it is because they decided to just have a WW release this summer, but we'll see.

Unlike Duke Nukem, I doubt Sony would pull the plug on it. I can definitely see GT5 getting released down the road. I think Sony has too much faith in this project to just give up on it like the parent company that was financing Duke Nukem did.

Released the same week as god of war 3, and musou game. Probably for a worldwide release date is my bet.

Why? Does it need to be future proof. Obviously racing simulator are going to get more and more close to reality as the technology evolves. It needs to be the best racing simulator when it is released. It basically will not have competition for 1 and a half years and have success as a result. I still feel like this is dumb. Why is it worthwhile to delay Gran turismo 5 to june for a WW releaese date doesn't make much sense.

Because a 3 month delay on a 5 year production isn't really neccessary. The possibility is adding in not more content but menu and localization for all the releases.

Correct me if I'm wrong I might be reading what you said incorrectly but clearly it's necessary to delay the game or they simply would haven't delayed it.

What do you mean by "The possibility is adding in not more content but menu and localization for all the releases."

Can you please rephrase it or add more details so I can better understand your point.

Thats true...;)

but it's kinda ridiculous when Poly said GT5 will release "soon" after GTPSP…That looks like it's going to be a year latter …

Menu screens in mutiple languages, stuff like that are done during the end of a product. Game engine, art assets, etc should all be finalized. And I have no idea how a racing simulator could be buggy. I mean the game is either really poorly managed to the point of complete and utter incompetency, or this delay was more to obtain better sales.

I see what you mean…It's all assumption so that could be it just as any other assumption…

I guess the next answer to look for is the game now slated for a WW release

It won't release in the holidays is my bet. There is going to be a 4 month gracing period between march and august. I think may will be when modnation racers, and alan wake is released and a late june/early july release date for gran turismo 5. It was always the case. They will be able to generate more hype from e3 and also have a gracing period before most holiday games.

This is just plain pathetic now, I'm betting it'll end up like the PSP GT, years of waiting for only a good but largly disappointing game. Lucky the PS3 doesn't need GT5 for 2010 to be a good for it.

I don't know much about racing simulators or Gran turismo series but my bet is neither do you. The main complaint about gt psp was the lack of players, and the lack of a gt mode which gran turismo has. It also has better physics, more tracks, etc. Basically this will be a massive game similar to halo series. Anyone who thinks this game is going to not have 9s scores across the board, really are way into this system wars stuff.

I was hyped for this game at the start but after waiting so long am not really fussed about it now. Its still looking good but not as good as promised and there is still the question of if they will keep the bumper car physics or keep thestupid time delays for bumping into the car in front.

I am looking forward to Moto GP 09/10 more than i am GP5 now.

You got me there, never owned one (played a few before) and probably never will, no big on driving sims. But still after all these years of waiting I'm betting its going to end up being a disappointment for many people, not in the same ways GT PSP was, I never said it was going to be lacking features and stuff like that I'm just saying that after all this waiting its probably not even going to end up as good as Polyphony Digital are trying to make it sound or meet many people here's expectations.

OKay so GT5 confirmed for Fall of 2010 then? unless there are more delays, can't imagine how there could be though, but hey, I expected it to be out already so...... /shrug

If its not coming in the spring....then it has to be fall.... no way they will release such a big title mid-summer.

This game has been borderin on the ridiculous for ages but now it appears to have crossed it. Turn 10 must be laughin so hard that if u open a window and listen carefully u can prob hear them wherever u are:lol:

So much for 'we can release it anytime we want', this game simply cannot live up to expectations anymore after such a long time and some stellar efforts from other games.

It's unfortunate that the game is delayed yet again, but I still have no doubt it will still blow Forza 3 away....if it gets released sometime this year that is.

I am surprised that this thread has not reached 9 pages yet...

The only reason I think that can make this delay justifiable is that (alll of a sudden)SCE were looking for a worldwide release for this game. But man, PD sure is taking their sweet time developing GT5....

If you mean localization of languages and so on, considering that this would have little impact on car modeling and so on, this should've been done already. Indeed, the worldwide presence of a demo is a pretty strong indication that language localization is, if not done already, then pretty far along.

I know people joke about it but at this rate I really would not be surprised if Forza 4 came out around the same time. Heck 3 Forza cames have already been released since GT4 all all of them AAA games.

This is such a big joke now. I am still confident this game doesn't come out in 2010 and now people who say this game has never been delayed....well, it's pretty obvious at this point
