I have a funny feeling that I'm going to step around a lot of napalm come E3...

Of course the real question is, what are you guys going to do if we end up with a GT6 Epilogue on PS4? Try to make life unbearable on the rest of us?

If the game is actually pretty darn cool? Will it matter?

Is acting like Dusty Harry Reid the answer?
 
My two cents;

May 2014; Senna content(Interlagos track, a few new cars, Seasonal Event etc.)

E3 June 2014; GT6 Spec 2.0 or whatever number they use these days. Released straight away!
Everything that was said at the Silverstone launch day last year; Online Racing clubs, GPS track creator, the mobile app, new track that was seen in February,DLC tracks and maybe more! One last push for sales as the PS3 is coming to an end.

And that will be that for GT6 on the PS3. The Vision GT cars will all be released over the next few months and a few new tracks (maybe!)

September 2014: Everybody buy a PS4(myself included!).

October/November 2014; Driveclub and Project Cars are released. I would be shocked if PD went up against DriveClub so that release window is out.

April/May 2015; GT Academy on the PS4 (that will be the demo for GT7 just like they did with the GT Academy last year on the PS3);
E3 June 2015; GT7 announced for the PS4;
Christmas 2015; GT7 released on the PS4.

Everyone wins!
We get a big update on GT6 which will keep us happy for a few months until we all get a PS4.
We all go off and play either DriveClub and PCars which both get a few months on their own.

PD are quietly working away behind the scenes then Kaz comes onto the stage at E3 next year and blows us all away with GT7 and we're all stunned at how fantastic it is and we all apologise to PD for all the grief we have being given them over the years!

Seems pointless really. Boring game will still be so, regardless of improved visual fidelity. Plus if it's bombed on the Ps3 with it's relatively huge install base, then there's no reason to think it'll perform any differently on the Ps4's much smaller one.

Of course it will. I don't know why people think that someone posts critical/negative/harsh comments about the game and PD for the fun of it and that we'll hate anything and everything they do, no matter how good it is. We don't, or at least I don't. The problem is, in my and a lot of peoples eyes, unfortunately there hasn't been much of what we believe to be great or even good in recent years and that is why we can be negative/pessimistic/moaning/whining or whatever you want to label it as.

If they totally repackage GT6 into a great game that erases all of the flaws of the current version of course I'd be positive about it. If I wanted the GT franchise to fail and disappear I wouldn't still be here at all. The only people that stick around forums about games they hate and want to fail are trolls and I assure you, that isn't me. I'm still here because I still love the series that first got me into this genre and I just hope our sometimes harsh criticism works and we have a great, 10/10 Gran Turismo game again.

Yes, we understand that it's not hard to travel across the globe, but why not give premium treatment to the cars closer to home? It doesn't make sense at all.

The fact that a NA gaming company will go all the way to JAPAN to model a piece of history tells you something about that company. Then you have PD, who either don't model the car at all, or don't bother to update a model from the PS2 era. There is a garage filled with all of Nissan's racing cars from the present, and past, just a stone's throw away from their headquarters, compared to the length Turn10 had to travel.

Sure it does. PD doesn't use proximity to determine what cars they make premium and what cars they don't. They did more so back in the early days of GT, but they don't anymore and I can't think of any racing game dev that uses whatever cars are close to decide what cars they add to the game.

Wow. So if the rumors are true, PD is going to repackage GT6, call it GT7: Prologue (I think that's what's implied?) and release it mid-2015?

PD, you are sinking fast. Very fast.

Not really, the rumor states that they're going to port GT6 over to the PS4 in lieu of a GT7P. I don't know if it's true, but it's not GT6 renamed GT7P.

(rosy scenario)
This would be the ultimate solution for everyone. I must admit that I personally would rather see GT7 sooner, because of all the shortcomings the PS3 imposes on GT6, and what's possible on that far more powerful and well endowed system. But I'll take what I can get.


OH YEAAHH! I didn't say that. But I will say that if he does it, I'll be a very happy camper.

I think it's about time I pulled out a card from Johnnypenso's deck, and :lol::lol::lol:
 

That would be beautiful. But I'm not expecting it.

My personal timeline:

E3 2014: PD shows off GT on the PS4. No name, no release date, just precious little info and a sweet video with "2015" at the end. GTPlanet erupts with excitement and skepticism. Around the same time GT6 gets a reasonable update with one of the promised features and possibly new cars or a new track.

July through November 2014: Updates continue to roll out at a rate of 1-2 a month with 3-4 of the remaining promised features coming out along with maybe another track or two and almost certainly more cars (possibly as the first paid dlc). A few surprise features pop up here and there along the way. small bits of info about GT on the PS4 trickle out but nothing serious.

December 2014: Anniversary of GT6 is celebrated by a large year end patch. At least one promised feature is added (if any remain) as well as a few surprises in the form of features and content. It releases along side a second batch of paid DLC that is larger than the previous. Possibly followed up by a smaller holiday patch with a free car or two.

January-march 2015: Updates slow down and consist of mostly small tweaks. Another batch of paid DLC is released. More info on GT for the PS4, it's GT6: HD and will consist of all of the current DLC and updates (think GT5 XL) and will launch late 2015. Once again, video is shown and no release date is given.

April-May 2015: info continues to leak out about GT6: HD. Mostly peformance based, locked 1080P @ 60 fps, Strong AA system. GT6 updates have all but stopped along with any more paid DLC.

E3 2015: Largest batch of info on GT6: HD to date, increased car on track count, new sound engine, updates to existing GT6 features, PS4 exclusive content. A release date is given for sometime in October or November of 2015.

July-September 2015: Very few GT6 updates at all while info for GT6: HD trickles out.

October-November 2015: Launch of GT6: HD.

P.S. Lots of GTPlanet bickering and speculation throughout :sly:

No what it says is "in the vein of Gran Turismo 7: Prologue", which means "In the same style or manner as.." Not in lieu of.

Not that I think its true, mind you.

Well yes but I imagine that by "in the style of" they mean as a hold over for GT on the new console before the next full game comes out. I personally just think we'll see GT6: HD instead of GT7P because it will essentially play the same roll. I should have made the more clear though.

Either way it in no way states that we'll be getting GT6: HD renamed GT7P.
 
I'm not expecting anything, but I won't be suprised if something like this happened either.

One of my biggest concerns for GT7 though is that I hope they stick to the hardcore aspect of simulation and not so much of the casua/simcade content that they've been bringing in recently. There aren't enough (any really) hardcore sims on consoles, but an abundance of other styles of racing games.
 
More power won't fix GT6's world of issues. Fundamentally everything comes down to poor gameplay and design choices and the lack of interaction with the community to fix what needs fixing.

GT6+ May end up looking better but will the insulting endurance races be fixed? camber be fixed? Will the gameplay be fixed? Will the AI be fixed? If PD thinks that starting every single race half a lap behind the leader and dealing with lap time roulette is fun then it doesn't matter what the game looks like.
 
Halo 5? On PS4? Yeah that'll never happen. And Free Unlimited Ice Cream for Every PS+ Subscriber? Clearly that list fake too. :lol:

But I wish PS4 can now cure cancer was real though. :P
 
GT 6, being the weakest in the series by a long shot, isn't strong enough for a rerelease in the future.

They may call it GT 6 now, but by the time mid 2015 or later comes around PD will want to ditch the GT 6 stigma. It does nothing to boost recognission but rather detracts and makes people think its a port and a lessor product like a rehash.

Not a wise move when you go from a 90 million install base only selling a few million, to a 4-5 million install base.

And what of controller/wheel support for PS4? Logitec is out, bumping Fanatec in the process since it emulates Logitec.
