[Gran Turismo 5 @ TGS 2009] (SEE POST1!: New vids. Interviews!)

[hardvibes]

Just because it's an old article doesn't change the fact that James Armstrong, (Sony's chief executive) gave a date.

2009/Christmas 2009 is not a date. And things changed lately for some reason.

 

[OppositeOfYou]

Christmas 2009 sure isn't March 2010.

 

[yesbossdodd]

Thanks for that Jay, I wasn't just seeing things with all the excitement running through my head!!

If anyone is still around in Tokyo tomorrow give me a shout, I was thinking of heading over to Asakusa....

Christmas 2009 sure isn't March 2010.

A difference of 90 days... so what? I repeat, those were statements of march 2008, anything can change in a year and a half.

From the G4TV hands-on…

"… it seems like Polyphony Digital is finally getting the game together for a March 2010 release in North America, Japan, and Europe."

"Lose a fender or door, and it will lay in the track – damaging other cars that run into it."

"Series creator Kazunori Yamauchi says that there will be even more features in the game revealed later, including PlayStation Eye camera support. Sweet!"

Sweet indeed.

No wonder it's not ready yet.
They're having far too much fun at work

Christmas 2009 sure isn't March 2010.

From the way PD launch there games for the west, I think prepare for a Dec 2010 release. We might even see this game still being demoed on E3 2010 and TGS.

Keep in mind what the say first with the release date: It SEEMS like. Not official yet but I am going to have to concur with G4TV

I found Asakusa to be boring, but then I only went to the temple and totally missed the river.

Have you been to odaiba yet? If not then I recommend you go via monorail. You can go from shimbashi on the yamanote straight to daiba station and along the way you get a very good tour of toyko bay.

I see a G27 box on the floor

 

[Kinetic]

Drooooooooooooooooooooool..

although the tv could be a little bigger haha

 

[finnracer]

I see a G27 box on the floor

I think the car is the ferrari 599 gtb and the track is obviously the nurburgring-if you look closely at the car you will notive the prancing horse on the wheel and the ferrari air vents!

458 Italia @ Nordschleife, with the brand new G27...

 

[finnracer]

its not the 458 as the interior is different-as i said above if you look closely it looks like a 599 but i could be an f430 or just to add some speculation a 430 scuderia!!

 

[Pat_f40]

299$, and in Europe, 350€!!! WTF man!!!

its not the 458 as the interior is different-as i said above if you look closely it looks like a 599 but i could be an f430 or just to add some speculation a 430 scuderia!!

I beet you a G27 it's the 458 Italia, for sure

 

[Famine]

And if you look even closer, the F430 and 599 both have wing mirrors with twin mounts and the F458 doesn't. Neither does the car in the image.

458 Italia @ Nordschleife, with the brand new G27...

It's not a G27... It's got that little Red dial thingy on it - which I think makes it a "GT Driving Force Pro"...

The G27 might still be in it's box... or on the next desk over!?

Right
They have a freaking hotel attached for employees. Insane

If I worked for PD - I'm not sure I would go home at night!!!

[serversurfer]

Well, it's clear the major advancement was referring to the playable demo with the damage taking place on road cars.

Actually, didn't he get up on stage and talk about how the new Photo Mode was the coolest thing to ever come to a driving game, or words to that effect?

Maybe that's what he was talking about when he told us to expect a "major advancement."

Hmm... I'm excited to see what makes this new photomode so great...

heaps and heaps of AA for sure...
raytracing maybe?
LOD increased on cars?

I dunno.

 

[wbrinkman]

I am amazed how you can spot a prancing horse in a jumble of 15 black/blueish pixels.

 

[serversurfer]

If I worked for PD - I'm not sure I would go home at night!!!

Actually, a lot of them don't.

 

[opladener]

I hope they keep their word about a simultanious worldwide release.
Would really suck to wait even longer than march.

 

[serversurfer]

Hmm... I'm excited to see what makes this new photomode so great...

Well, if they look anything like this…

… I'd personally consider that a "major advancement."

I have a very good eye for this things...

Those clouds look mighty dark in that pic..

 

[Bogie 19th]

I am jealous of those silver/white PS3s. I wish I had that color instead.
