The new issue of Official PlayStation Magazine UK magazine is hitting subscribers now and it has some decent features, a 11 page feature on Modern Warfare 2 as well as 8 page features of Assassins Creed 2 and FIFA 10. But the most interesting of all: Gran Turismo 5 next month.

No, we’re not kidding. Gran Turismo 5 is gonna be previewed next month in the next issue of OPM. As to what this preview is all about, we dont have a clue. Just that the game will be previewed next month according to the next month feature of the magazine.

Fingers crossed new details about the game is shown and not just recycled information.
 
The way magazines work they will probably be writing about the latest news from E3.
 
Awesome!! Super-duper!!! Vunderbar!!! I actually saw the new mag in shops yesterday so less than a month to go!
 
Porbably however Gameinformer had the first tibits of info about Modern Warfare 2. No idea about OPM UK since I do not have a subscription but surely they have new information about the game.

Who knows but if it is new information it means marketing for the game has started and the release is pretty soon ala not spring 2010. :P
 
okay, we have to keep this in perspective.
Reading that qouted part in kingdizzi's post, it seems like they are making a big deal out of this preview... but that quote is not from the OPM magazine itself is it?
Basically "goonline" are blowing this up for now, and it could very well be a little preview of what they have seen on E3.. nascar, damage and WRC plus upgraded graphics.

It could be a proper preview, but i'd have to read the OPM bit about the announcement of the preview first before i get excited.
 
Well I hope its good stuff and not the scraps from E3.

I really hope its a good one. 👍
 
I'm predicting that it will be scraps, with a just a splash of gold nugget information to keep the pot simmering and bubbling along....
 
I hope there is some insight into day/night cycles or weather. I will indeed be disappointed if it is just a rehash of the E3 stuff.

I see it being more than that, I doubt they are going to put the little information they could have gotten from E3 about GT5 in the mag. I say there will be a full interview with Kaz in there instead of the two or three same questions and answers people got about GT5 at E3.
 
The news from E³ would just be enough for a little article in 2-3 sentences. I don't think they would seriously announce this as a preview.

That's why i would like to see the announcement from OPM themselves.. goonline could be blowing this up out of proportions.
 
I'm with torontomi and Rentner on this one. We've already had some interesting tidbits bubble up on Home integration, how performance parts will/might be handled, and remarks on damage. I'd think this would be the first serious Kazunori interview, with possibly, possibly, a brief exposure to the game. I'd also think there would be some screen grabs. After all, if OPM touts this as a preview, they're going to get collectively lynched if they don't deliver one. Maybe even from SONY as well as us!

Really good news.

But I think for a game to be preview the guys have to Play almost the full game, to see and experience almost all the features. I hope they do not base the preview from interviews and E3 film.
 
It sounds good!
Bet we'll hear some new stuff! Even if it isn't much!
If the announcement is real of course..
 
I hope they answer these 4 questions.

Which cars will have damage and how will the repairs work?
Will the endurance races change from day to night and will it be an option in other game modes?
How much of the game will be Nascar/WRC?
Will there be weather changes or different weather types for the courses?
 
Those four questions may not get answered. Kazunori may be holding certain cards like those until GT5 is close to release, or a certain "definitive" game is out. But like everyone else, we'll be hoping for as much detail as we can get.
 
Can anyone that has this month's issue confirm that there's a proper spread announing a Gran Turismo 5 preview for next month?

I might have to go to WHSmiths and flick through it :P

Chances are if it's an announcment taking up a page or two we're looking at a sizeable feature on it next month and i doubt they could string out the E3 info enough to fill it.
 
I doubt we will get something new, i am looking forward to it though.
Just wait and see, but dont get hyped for this.

Well, the pre-order date on shopto.net has changed from the end of the year to 25/09/06!

Looking like a few other sites have also changed to this date also. It's my mums birthday, hope she's not expecting me to go round and see her!

OPM comes in a sealed bag thing I'm afraid.

I might have to resort to paying extortionate amounts of money (£6 for a magazine!), for this months copy (MW2 preview) and next months GT preview.
 
Or we could sit by and wait for scans, because we know it's gonna happen.

Amazon still aren't listing GT5 - which is a little odd...

Really Gran Turismo 5 came out in 2006, I must have missed it. :lol:
Seriously I doubt it's coming out then, it's just a place holder to gather more pre-orders.
 
If PD wanted to date GT they would make it official and first send info to game magazines and game websites, not gamestop or shop.something
So all the gamestops pre order dates are wrong. But it does not hurt to pre order one copy now!
