Don’t Ask Kazunori Yamauchi About GT5

kazunori-yamauchiJust when we thought this roller coaster ride was about to come to an end, we find there’s one more scary drop: Sony is reportedly telling everyone interviewing Kazunori Yamauchi “to not mention Gran Turismo 5“.  So…what does this mean?  Obviously, it’s not good – presuming that Gran Turismo 5 is announced at Sony’s big press conference tomorrow, why couldn’t he talk about it?  It may, ultimately, come down to Sony not wanting any GT5 announcements to dwarf GT Mobile and the new PSP Go hardware, in which case, we may be waiting several more months for news about the big game.

Of course, optimists in our forums have quickly called Sony out, speculating this may be some kind of trick – but it’s little more than gossip at this point.  GT Mobile overshadowing GT5 is just a tough pill to swallow.  Stay tuned…

    Not now , we really dont need a longer wait, or the Forza Fanboys will eat us, seeing how good that game looks this isnt what we need! :S

    Remember, they did not cite a source. At all. This is not credible at all, IMHO, until we know that there’s a reputable source behind this. As it’s the day before E3, there are too many PR variables, such as MS and Sony ploys to grab attention through a rumor like this, to believe an unsubstantiated blurb like this.

    I hope they announce GT5 tomorrow. They will have some competition with Forza 3 which has some beautiful (Not on par with GT5) Graphics and its coming out in october.

    After seeing the Forza 3 trailor, if Sony doesn’t get GT5 out, I’m giving up… it’s getting ridiculous.

    @the-bna: According to VG247’s word choice, Yamauchi won’t be interviewed by anyone until tomorrow – after the press conference where any “bombs” would presumably be dropped.

    Why is it necessarily bad? Maybe they just want to drop the bomb at E3 – therefore interviewing him about GT5 now wouldn’t result in anything we didn’t know already.

    PD are working on giving us a game that will have great longevity. E3 or no E3, we can wait.
