Gran Turismo release date: March 2010 Japan--rest of world unknown.

Confirmed things we already knew. 950+ cars, no word on premium cars, 20 environments, 70+ tracks. Lots of interoperability with the PSP version. Play PSP and unlock cars = unlocked cars for GT5. Export replay to youtube, and psp too I believe.

Honestly, I can't believe 5 years of development is worth it. If T10 can do what they have in 2 years, I honestly can't see where the extra time PD is taking is going. Cars maybe, graphics, but certainly not much else. I also wonder how profitable a game like this can be. MS creates two full games, and Sony comes up with one?

GT4 came out in Japan in December 2004

The ORIGINAL Forza came out in May 2005

I had a feeling this wouldn't make 2009. Somewhat ironically, Microsoft have released a Forza 3 demo today, just to rub it in presumably. I wouldn't be surprised if they hadn't been sitting on that waiting for TGS to come around.

Bloody amazing news... GT5 to have a full blown track editor, to make new tracks from scratch, or to remake the existing ones:

http://e4g.info/1886/gran-turismo-5-track-editor-c...

This is yet another nail in the coffin for GT competing racing games!

2009-11-02 13:25:17

not a fan of the series, but that is pretty damn good news. basically takes GT's tracklist to "infinate"

2009-11-02 20:40:22

Brilliant if true, however, it may not be...

Hmn, would be nice, but it's looking a bit fake. Why would they be so willing to give that info when they've been so tight about everything else. And the last line in that article was dumb.

"Looks like Gran Turismo 5 will live up to its name, “The Real Driving Simulator”".

What does having a track editor have to do with it being a driving simulator?

I also think that in GT5 there won't be track editor (at least not that kind like in link above). But gymkhana editor would be nice and easy to made.

Weather system is "Done", finally fully ready, I hope they include it:

http://www.gtplanet.net/gran-turismo-5s-weather-sy...

Kaz says its fully functional now, 'night-mode' has been confirmed and now a sort of focus testing for weather is under foot. Really hope to have it in there :)

2009-11-20 01:28:58

It better be there. I hate Kaz's usual bullshit of "it's not up to our standards, we won't include it". It's no better than what Greenawalt does.

"The functionality is not a problem – we’ve got the weather system done – but if we are not sure about the quality of it, and how it improves the driving experience, we are not going to have it in the game.”"

So you've got the weather system "done", but there is a chance you might have just wasted hours and hours of work? Bullshit, there is no reason why a weather system would not improve the experience, NO REASON. To me this is more like "night racing will be in the game" (good thing--although it does not say it's dynamic), and "we are still working on the weather system, and it might just not make it".

if the weather system isn't up to standards, then it isn't "done." maybe there was a mistranslation.
