What they should have done is learn from previous mistakes and ship the best racer on the market in the timescale they advertised. They have made this rod for their own back and are only reaping what they sowed.
Maybe that just wasn't possible this time around.

Whatever the issue, I'll just wait on more news and continue playing FM6 and GT6, and possibly a few other games.
 
Come join the AC club now sweeties, it's the perfect time and i know you want to:

This time around? Have you been around for any other GT release? Each time the delays have got longer and longer, but back in the day they at least released somewhat limited interim titles.

GT6 is a PS3 title. The PS3, launched in 2006, GT6 launched in 2013... if you can't see or understand that these delays that do NOT produce superior or polished products are a problem then you are just not being honest.

Aside from GT1, GT2, GT3, GT4, GT5P, GTPSP, and GT6, no.

You do understand that GT6 is a PS3 title right? The PS3, launched in 2006, GT6 launched in 2013... if you can't see or understand that these delays that do NOT produce superior or polished products are a problem then you are just not being honest.
Those delays didn't. However, that doesn't mean that this delay won't.

You have a clear history of behavior to call on - as in the delays result in LESS features and dropped functionality, yet you still refuse to admit this is the likely outcome.

I bet when it releases it'll still run like a big of spanners regardless of the delays.
More and more ground lost to other racing games in the process too.
What is going on with PD?
 
@RC45 - Either find a way to respond to people without resorting to name-calling, or find yourself banned again.

Looking through the archives, I stumbled upon this old article of ours:

Are you kidding me? I was not name calling. I was offering the gentleman a chance to defend his position as he was clearly defending a company that has a track record of lying to consumers and he is ignoring this fact.

The response he provided was a text book definition of some one that defends a company without any merit to the defense.

Since you think that the term "fanboy" is name calling, please provide me with an acceptable and politically correct adjective to describe the responder above that is clearly willing to ignore the atrocious track record that PD and KY have at being honest about features and release dates.
 
This is it. I'm done. My GT career is over. They are killing this series.

I get the disappointment. Really I do. But a video game being delayed is hardly worth throwing in the towel on a franchise when it is obvious the game (operative word here) wasn't ready. Plenty of other great titles out there to experience in the mean time.

GT6 wasn't delayed though :confused:

“Finally, when asked about the alleged arrival of Gran Turismo 7 in 2017, as initially feared by some sources, it came a blunt denial: “People will never wait so much.”

Kazunori laughed at the notion of a 2010 release date for Gran Turismo 5, and said it will be released sooner than expected.

I just confirms that PD hasn't changed its approach since GT5, and that was a massive disappointment.
 
Oh god, I just remembered a french interview long before we knew of GTS in which Kaz laughed at the question of is GT7 coming in 2017? To which he answered: "No I don't think GT fans will have to wait that long..." Oh the irony

Since you already used it, gentleman works. So does person, or member. "Fanboy" has always been considered a derogatory term here. This is not new.

The game was announced in 2011 and finally arrived in December of 2013 without many of the promised and expected features that GT5 had.

GT6 wasn't officially announced until 2013. It launched, without a delay, in 2013.
 
Did it not have a big day one patch?

I honestly feel that a huge day one patch is no better than a delay
I'm not even sure how day one patch's can be considered bad, in my opinion. In this day and age, in the time between going gold and reaching your console, this allows them work on the game longer. In most cases, thats a good thing.
