It’s not unreasonably pessimistic to say that just because a car is in Gran Turismo PSP, it may not be in Gran Turismo 5. It’s been debated in our forums at length, and we won’t have a definitive answer until we can directly compare the car list from each game. However, things look a bit brighter when you consider this recent interview with Kazunori Yamauchi by French gaming site JVN. When asked about the “interactivity” between GT PSP and GT5, he responds:
“If [the user] unlocks a car in Gran Turismo PSP, it will also be available in Gran Turismo 5.”
Unless something has been seriously lost in translation, it can be inferred that all 800 cars in GT PSP must also be in GT5. Since we already know that NASCARs will not be in the mobile version of the game, GT5’s grand total number must be even larger.
Yamauchi also expanded on the car sharing and exchange features – something new that GT PSP is bringing to the series. Google’s automated translation is a bit awkward, but to summarize: when you trade a car to someone else, it’s gone, and some cars you won’t be able to trade at all (hmmm, what could they be…?). Finally, when asked point blank if GT PSP delayed GT5, Yamauchi answered bluntly:
“I will not contradict you, because all versions of GT are developed within the studio Polyphony Digital. If a person works on an item, it necessarily prevents him from doing anything else. So yes, there is some truth in what you say.”
That admission will ruffle feathers with the impatient among us, but using GT PSP to sell hardware of the new PSP Go is undoubtedly something Sony has planned for quite some time.

Six years ago I was still playing GT Concept 2002 Tokyo – Geneva on PS2
But then again. I’ve always a bit behind everyone else, getting in late.
I personaly think that forza 3 will be a good game to play till gt5 comes out. But that’s only if you already have the box. And i have been waiting for 6 years now to get my gt5 and right now i can say i no about 5k ppl who wont buy gt5 cause of the constant delays and lack of info. And that number keeps going up and pd dont see this so this lil suspense they have going is hurting them more than anytimin else. Likei already pre ordered and payed for both f3 and gt5
I agree with you Ralph. This is a vicious war. Both sides are playing for keeps.
i’ll put it into simple words
gt5= photorealistic graphics
forza 3= highquality gaming graphics
forza 3 ain’t as good as you think it is
cars rollover, tire deformation blah blah blah
what about if they implement so MUCH damage that you can’t even race for shit
it’s not about damage it’s about how good you can race, and it’s usally the players crashing not the AI
WTF is wrong with this people getting so pissed off on everything and everyone? I bet when GT5 release date comes out there’s going to be a fanboy wars on this news section with 1000 post saying “GT5 is going to suck!!” or “Forza 3 rules!!” vise versa. I think this gen brings fanboyism at it’s best on everyone. So I’m saying this gen of console war is one of the worst recorded on history of gaming.
Yeah, you know you’re wrong and have lost this battle. That’s why you are not answering questions as asked, avoiding pertinent points made, and resorted to “dumb” name calling. So, there you go.
Let me ask the question again, except in a way you can’t weasel your way around without giving an answer. How did you get game information BEFORE YOU HAD THE INTERNET? Same way I did, through magazines and TV shows (TechTV’s Extended Play aka G4’s Xplay).
5+ years ago i was playing GT3 and then later GT4 lol. But Forza changed anything. I know that you would never understand that in your dumb fanboy thinking, so there is nothing more to say.
@jadofu
Talk to me about information when the game is in my console.
You went on a tirade and changed the subject because you know you have no argument otherwise. Jealous? No. Pissed off at PD about their lack of connection with us? YES. But, what can I do about it? Nothing except wait. Even if we had info every day, that would NOT change the fact that I still have to WAIT…..just like you do for Fartza 3.
What did you do 5+ years ago before there was information at your fingertips? You waited at the magazine rack. Like I said, when you know, you just know.
Forza won’t be a true competitor until it’s on a next gen system. Everybody in the gaming universe knows the CrapBox PlzFixMe is really Xbox 1.5 and was rushed to market JUST to beat SONY. Not to put a better system out there. Because of their pure greed, you’ll be buying a new M$ product in a couple of years. While the Trey is just starting to hit it’s stride, your CrapBox PlzFixMe is gasping for breath because it can’t get any better.
Just like Nintendo, they’ll have to put a new system out there to compete with the beast that the PS3 is.
A $5 ribeye steak is not the same quality of a $20 ribeye steak. There is a reason why one is cheap. No matter how many $5 steaks you have, none will be as good as a $20 steak. I’m not talking about talking a $3 steak and putting a $20 price tag on it and selling the sizzle, duping people into thinking they have something they don’t.
Man…Need for Speed Shift sucks…The graphics are nice…the sound is also nice…but the gameplay??..damn..that really sucks..the cars move so damn unrealistic..
Nothing can beat GT5(or Prologue)!!
since i came late and glad i did since E3 2009
i’m pretty sure we’ll be getting info at gamescom or tokyo game and motor show
=)
if you guys look at youtube videos and some comments
you’ll see xbox users actually bashing the ps3 and saying wow forza 3 has better graphics, gt5 will be released in 2012 this and that wow
they’re really retarded and need to stop seriously they need to learn that GT5 can’t be beaten by any game
GT5=legend Forza3=amateur
Gt5p has 60 fps but the problem is if gt5 has weather and damage how they get the same 60fps i hope gt5 stays like the curent gt5p quality
“When you know, you know. We just know GT5 will be better than Forza 3, 4, and 5. Why? Because, GT is not a M$ product.” by DaveTheStalker
This is really stupid. GT5 will be great, but PD is sucks in Information and Releases. PD could never do what Turn10 does in 2 Years. Come on over 4-5 years of developement nothing happened and some stupid Prologue versions nobody needs.
You are only jealous that Turn10 gives Information about their Game. We saw many gameplayvideos and screens from FM3. There is no single Screenshot of GT5 after 4-5 years and if GT5 looks like its Prologue version, it will really go under. 60 f/s, but nearly no antialising.
GT5 will be great, but this fanboy s**t is just stupid.
xbox fanboys are low life,s.
what going with GTP you guys look like lots of bad language is going on GTP is not going to like this at all haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Sorry dude, this is a console “war”. Everybody knows M$ plays dirty pool and preys on peer pressure to build it’s army. I’m sure your Mom said, “If your friends jumped off a bridge would you do that too?!” Give no quarter to the enemy.
DaveTheStalker
LETS NOT BE STUBBORN NOW, FORZA 2 WAS PRETTY DECENT HAD ME HOOKED ON IT TILL I SOLD MY XBOX FOR A PS3 BECAUE OF GT5, BUT IM PRETTY SURE BOTH GAMES ARE GOING TO HAVE 1UP’S ON EACH OTHER.
When you know, you know. We just know GT5 will be better than Forza 3, 4, and 5. Why? Because, GT is not a M$ product.
Phew; thought he was holding a wiimote for a second there!
GTfanboy12 Says
“so in reality forza sucks hard and gt is way better”
NO FORZA IS OUT DOING GRAN TURISMO CAUSE THEY HAVE A ACTUAL RELEASE DATE FOR THE GAME…
DONT TAKE THIS WRONG IM A BIG GRAN TURSIMO FAN, BUT LACK OF INFORMATION AND A RELEASE DATE, HAS US IN A DITCH TO FORZA 3 AND THEREFORE WE REALLY CANT SAY GT IS BETTER THAN FORZA CAUSE WE DONT KNOW
gt= night racing, weather, WRC, nascar, finally some damage implemented into the game, around 800 cars or more, better graphics than forza 3
forza= customization, SUVs rewind feature,
graphics=Gt no doubt
physics=?????
so in reality forza sucks hard and gt is way better
what? psp delayed gt5?
i hate that little piece of device, crap graphics and small screen
and forza 3 sucks bad
I hate tha fact that psp game delayed Gt5. Fucking psp.
@Alan
You bring up a very good point. Its a complete annoyance to be waiting for a game like GT5 only to be postponed due to a game I would naturally assume is less concerning then the “full package” only to be pushed towards buying something else I again, assume no one fancies a whole lot. No disrespect to P.D or K.Y but its been an eternity waiting for a game and I know once they announced it, prematurely mind you, in 04′ they just had to finish it. I know GT5 will be a brilliant game but I would’ve known that a year ago I suspect, if GT PSP was put on hold.
BTW, where is good old American Vector Automobiles in the GT series? Brilliant, those things proved to be.
Oops i mean SHIFT
Fortunely we can play Need For Speed Shit soon before GT5 comes out
@ Alan
Do you realise how idiotic you sound!?
If YOU haven’t noticed , the recession affects COMPANIES TOO! Sony are having a really tough time, and you’re telling people not to buy their products….and THEN you say how you want GT5, a game EXCLUSIVE to their console!?!?
Get back under the bridge, troll.
You’re right, Alan, they shouldn’t charge ANYTHING for these damn games – don’t they know anything about this economic crisis? How are we supposed to have fun while they keep charging us?! Money grabbing c**nts, no doubt.
Sony are money grabbing c**nts, telling us that if u buy the crappy psp version u can transfer the cars to gt5 and its delayed the proper gt5 game aswell, its the same thing with these companys, they only care about profits and dont seem to notice that there is a recession going on, im not buying a psp and never will and advise others not to buy 1 too, sony stop fu*king us about and release the game
Any idea is the aeromodel Vector is in the GAME!!!
In GT2 is the last time to see.
(Sorry i am Argentine)
VECTOR FTW!!!!!!!
P O R S C H E .. . . . .. ..
wait so every single car in GT mobile will be in GT5?
how SWEET is THAT?
800cars plus WRC plus nascar and who knows what
GT5 is the best EVER
cant wait for more things to come ….weather …i cant wait for that ..that would be the icing on the cake…
his picture looks like he is holding something very naughty
lol
OMG gt5 is gonna bE A COOL GAME BUT WAIT THERE IS MORE I CANT STRESS HOW MUCH I HAVE DONT TO THIS INFORMATION GIVE ME THE FILE ALREADY OR KEEP UR MOUTH SHUT. GT5 CAN BE THE GREATEST GAME EVER I AM ABLE TO PARTICIPATE OTHERWISE NO. OK THANKYOU GOODBYE NEEEHAMA IN JAPANESE. PS. IAM A BIG FAN TO ALL OF UR GT5 BOXES AND G25 KEEP ROCKING YYYYEEYYYY BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LATERZ
WHY TEASE US WITH THIS NON SENSE KAZ, PSP GT LOOKS NICE AND ALL, BUT DAMN WAITING FOR THIS MUCH ANTICIPATED GAME WITH LITTLE TO NO DETAILS IS KIND OF A KILLER… GOOD WAY TO MARKET YOUR PRODUCT…. I JUST HOPE GAMESCOM SHEDS SOME LIGHT ON GT5 AND SOMEONE BE DIRECT IN A INTERVIEW WITH KAZ AND ASK HIM ALL THE RIGHT QUESTIONS ABOUT WHAT WE WANT TO HEAR
So this is pretty much a confirmation that Lambo and Bugatti, in some shape or form, will be in GT5. YAY! :D
Why forza fanboys are here pressuring the release date of GT5? I’m not going to forza forums and say what I don’t like from forza….
You can buy the game you like, that’s all. Don’t pressure. IF YOU DON’T LIKE THE WAY OF WORK FROM PD DON’T BUY THE GAME! BUT DON’T PRESSURE THEM BECAUSE THERE’S PEOPLE THAT LIKE PD’S WAY OF WORK.
It seems that GT5 will have 800+ cars! That’s awesome! Thanks PD.
This is not funny anymore..i think its bullshit keepin his mouth shut…just give release date and dont give any bullshit information..we want details!
Give real info about a carlist, weather, tracks, etc.
Whats the point??
F*ck you PD..just say it comes out in april 2010…or later..
PD looks like a bunch of ladies, never give any clearness..
Surely they must have asked him THE QUESTION??
Do we know if in the full interview they asked the release date?
Hmmm…
GT MOBILE SUCKS – I want my GT5.
we can expect more than 800 cars. Amazing.
Bots attacking this site again :lol:. Are this people never grow up.
I only hope not to have 514816510 types of Skyline… please!
@fgdfsgd – Go to Forza forums, or just shut up.
codemasters bowed to the pressure as well, it was a fixed release date for all platforms for the new F1 game, all of a sudden PSP comes along and everyone drops all their current development and makes the game for this first, it is SUICIDE, sales of the PSP will be poor or at best the same as before, and people wont buy GT purely for the fact with that setup all digital buttons and sticks, it is not the real driving simulator, PD should of stood fast up to sony and said NO we are finishing GT5 off, when thats done port it down to fit the PSP
\_GT5 is the real driving simulator_/ Forza is a driving game only!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GT5 sux its taking tooooo long and it wont be much different to forza 3 wat
a waste of time FORZAFORZAvFORZAFORZAFORZAFORZAFORZA
FORZA 3 for LIFE
FORZA FORZA FORZA FORZA FORZA FORZA
FORZA FORZA FORZA FORZA FORZA FORZA
Just Release GT5 already polyphony. You said so yourself Kaz that P.D can go on refining the games quality in every regard till infinity comes around. You’re a self proclaimed perfectionist that’s bound to find a smear of some type on your perennial masterpiece no matter how long you spend on it. We’re literally going gray waiting for GT5. Just make sure you implement standing starts instead of that rolling start garbage & add some damage here & there ( like you said ) & we’re ready to roll. I’m with you “meagainstyou” GT on PSP a waste of time. Who ever said patience is a virtue knows exactly what they can do with that.
“I will not contradict you, because all versions of GT are developed within the studio Polyphony Digital. If a person works on an item, it necessarily prevents him from doing anything else. So yes, there is some truth in what you say.”
i dont want GT PSP… i want GT5 for PS3.. ( i think most fans think the same).. GT PSP is a wast of time
Well that’s sweet, I’ve never owned the PSP but I’ll be getting one so I can get a good head start at collecting all my faves, transfer them over and then we’ll be in business with the G25… I wonder what the deal is with tracks if they could also be transferred?
How about GT5P to GT5 transfer?
If any of you have taken a look at those GT Mobile car models, you would see that they look remarkably like the Prologue models, perhaps downscaled in polys just a scouche. And I mean just a scouche. I’m not hesitant to say that GT Mobile may have fewer cars than GT5, and won’t have more.
I suppose translation could have been lost whereby what he meant was if a car is in gt5 and also gtpsp and is unlocked on psp, then it becomes unlocked on gt5… as in if it’s not in gt5 it doesn’t matter but if it’s in both you get an unlock…
But then again that’s only a maybe…
Using GT to sell a Portable gaming console by Sony, were have I heard that line before *wink wink*, maybe it will come right up to release and will be delayed another 4 years!
Besides I think this thing about all cars in the PSP version are in GT5 is a total lie, there is no way PD have fully rendered all those GT4 cars for the PS3. The PSP version was easy to do because it was a GT4 port with a few more cars.
GT5 will not have all those cars because history tells us that the first GT on any new console always have less cars than the previous one (GT3) because of the time it takes to render so many cars. Remember there are 2 GT’s per console generation and when working with a new system the first title is always lacking.
There is way too much info on the PSP GT at the moment, I really dont see why its so interesting. If anything it got boring because its been just a tease for so many years its going to be such an anti climax.
“If [the user] unlocks a car in Gran Turismo PSP, it will also be available in Gran Turismo 5.”
this doesn’t mean that you can only unlock gt5-cars through gtpsp? or what?
this is great! 800+ cars and counting!!!!! this internet and harddrive on the ps3 is very good, because if GT5 released. and a couple of days later there will be a awesome car coming out…8 weeks later GT5 owners can buy it!!!:):) this is what if missed with gran turismo series.
I think that we wont be able to trade the cars that are not for sale like in GT4
@Jordan
It irks the snot out of me when people that don’t know any better say it. Could you please fix this, “that [b]NASCARs[/b] will not be in the mobile version”? NASCAR is a sanctioning body, not a type of car. “NASCAR cars” will be fine kind sir ;) I’d expect you to know better than that :p
@ Jordan..
Haha I have a feeling you really know a lot more than we do…
I’m just speculating that the exclusive cars/colors which are only available via the pre-order promotion may be among the ones which cannot be traded.
wait I’m Confused, ” when you trade a car to someone else, it’s gone, and some cars you won’t be able to trade at all (hmmm, what could they be…?). ” Does this mean we aren’t going to be able to have Lamborghini & Bugatti In GT5 or we just can’t trade the cars because of special colours?
Pretty sure I’ll be playing Forza 6 by the time this comes out.
I wonder if Sony is putting any pressure on PD at this point about a game that was a “launch title”. I will buy a PS3 when this comes out…I would have had a PS3 for 2 years now if this was a launch title…
so now we can expect 800+. What do we think 800, 900, 1000? I personally hope & think cars will be available for download from psn store :D
800+, + more cars!? Bloody hell! Easy to see why K.Y and P.D have been keeping their mouths shut. This game is going to be monumentally epic on a global scale!
I dont think that it necessarily means that the 800 or so will be in GT5 (at least straight away), more along the lines of, if its already in GT5 and you unlock it with GTM than it will be available to play in GT5.
I dont mean to sound pessimestic, however I think 800+ is a stretch on the imagination for release day… although I think I might slightly wee myslef if it were true.
Cheers
I don’t like that !! The game is really taking long , I mean gt5 not gt mobile (I don’t care about gt mobile ) , but at least I will be able to play forza 3 until GT5 arrives (whenever that is ) .
Damn PSP delaying the 1080p goodness! Cant wait to play both now the unlocking feature has confirmed my purchase. No money left for you Turn10 better luck next 5yrs
Definitely picking up GTMobile, but part of me really doesn’t want to just on the point of them delaying the dinner to serve an appetizer.. not cool at all.
But I’ll fold and buy it anyways.
That sound awesome, now I have even more reason to get GT Mobile. That way I will have a nice collection when I can finally afford a PS3 & GT5.
