Gran Turismo Sport: General Discussion

[Tassie_tiger]

E3 2013 they had a reason,GT6 was a PS3 game coming out while they were promoting PS4. This however, it's their first next-gen game due out in a matter of months, and it doesn't even get name-checked? Just a blink and you'll miss it snapshot at the end?

Instead they showed off games without finished titles and minimal game play that are clearly years off.

Bizarre.

Compared to the Microsoft/XBox presentation?

Chalk and cheese my friend.
Chalk and cheese.

 

[Suzumiya]

Agreed, wonder if people care anymore. Granturismo's popularity will be tested.

Racing games don't sell anymore to the general public.

 

[Samus]

Shooters, zombies and forest everywhere. No love for racing games

Yep, it's sad. Sony seemingly have zero interest in them, they shut down one studio and didn't give any air time to the other. It's not looking great for race fans who only own a PS4, people definitely need to branch out.

Not showing GTS was the best way to keep it a system seller.

That is some...interesting logic. Care to explain?

Chalk and cheese.

I'm, er, not sure what MS has to do with what I said? Did they neglect to mention a first party title due out soon in favour of games years away as well?

 

[TurismoBad]

A whole 5 seconds of old footage and no mention during VR showcase.

This game is releasing in 5 months ?

Amazing show and great music by GOW team. But I cannot believe they did not mention GT. I know Kaz is biased towards green hell and European region is more popular. Racing games are dying here but still some people probably do not even know GTS is a game or coming in November. Why spend so much money in London, tokyo event and not even mention the game is the biggest gaming show

 

[TokoTurismo]

Figures. PD doing what PD do best...

 

[ArR29]

That was odd. No GTSport at all? I thought Kaz will be there?

Montage for a few seconds.

This has been Another Lesson in Why to Expect Nothing, brought to you by Sony Interactive Entertainment.

I expected nothing but still mad. Is it mother:censored: Gran Turismo or Lada Racing Club?

 

[GTPorsche]

I'd like to point out that E3 continues all week. Just because it wasn't shown extensively tonight, doesn't mean it's not at E3.

 

[Samus]

Well E3 is all week, he/it could pop up in gameplay demos but it's obviously not going to get as much exposure.

 

[unit-one]

That was a really cool presentation. Live orchestra, original stage, a lot of quality games, no indies, no boring talking, just gameplay and trailers!

 

[Suzumiya]

That's probably really likely that it won't be though. If it's not a big piece, then they'll have it only as small mentions like "oh yeah, these are the other games" and forget about them.

 

[queleuleu]

IMO, it's just an american point of view. GT is now a too weird project. Maybe they see it like the old grand pa, a relic of the past.

GT sport has a booth too if I do remember. Because someone posted a photo a while back here...

 

[Suzumiya]

It's too niche for the general point of view. An e-sport, a niche, wrapped in yet another niche, a racing sim.

Except....

Plus PS Blog confirmed Kaz would be on the show floor with gameplay.

But back in 2009, GT was really something in their conference. A big part.

 

[GTchicken]

This makes me sad watching this! I remember how big Gran Turismo used to be.

Gran Turismo 4 E3

 

[Crumpet]

Figures. PD doing what PD do best...

Consciously choosing to showcase the E3 trailer early and not partaking in the briefing as such isn't something I recall Polyphony doing often enough for it to be regarded as a prominent reoccurring trait.

 

[JC_Dude]

That is some...interesting logic. Care to explain?

The less they show to the wide audience, the fewer people will find out what a piece of turd it's going to be.

Not hating on Sony. I think their conference was fantastic.

 

[Rotsen122]

Wtf man i was eager to watch e3 n nothin about gt

The E3 trailer was presented several days before the conference.

Polyphony Digital are presenting Gran Turismo Sport at the event though.

 

[Tassie_tiger]

Fantastic indeed.
Elephant in this particular room ... no GT Sport.

We have already seen the early release of the E3 clip.
It's been at Copperbox, Nurburgring, Tokyo.
Will likely be at Le Mans and Goodwood.

Disappointing right now?
Sure.

But that was an excellent E3 presentation.

 

[TheDabbinDave]

GT seems to be an after-thought in the world of PlayStation. There was about 1.5 seconds of GTS shown in the final sizzle video.

 

[Elitekilla29]

Gran turismo sport will be at the booth all week pretty much. Relax.

I guess we would have to keep alert these two days if something happens, remember Kaz always likes to show GT standalone, so basically. Even if the conferences are done, there's still a posibility

 

[TheDabbinDave]

Console war is serious business for the fanboys.

...and investors.

 

[GTPorsche]

There are a ton of games that don't get stage time, but get time either in-between conferences today, or during other coverage later in the week.

Final Fantasy VII remake, one of the most popular games ever, must be even further in the back of their minds as they showed exactly zero seconds of that.

When there is a limit of stage time, choices must be made.
