If they don't get it out before Thanksgiving in the U.S., it's suicide as far as sales go. Most people finish their shopping the day after and if it's not on the shelves people will buy something else. The fans will still buy, but the sales for casual gamers(the majority of the market) will be lost, they'll all go for NFS or worse, COD.

The Standard cars were finished years ago. So they are 100% "finished".
Now I'm going to punch a baby in the face..........
GT Morale is pretty low now.

To be honest, I cant say I'm surprised at all. When I heard about the Russia delay I was hoping it was just translation but I thought I might not be that simple.
It says this holiday season. That implies this year still around Xmas, I'd still be happy getting it this year!
People need to stop whining about it soo much. Would you rather have an incomplete game Nov 2nd or get a complete & amazing game at Xmas? I think I'd go with the complete version myself xD

It's all because of Sony beancounters.. They want their share of Christmas sales, that's all. 
Good thing that I didn't request those two weeks off yet.. Otherwise I would had been.. Irked.

Given that I am still able to view your original (and now deleted post) I would be careful about claims you make. You most certainly did use a much stronger word that damn in regard to COD.
Would you like me to confirm this via PM, detailing your original post, with an infraction attached?

My march 2011 guess is back on then.
Amars cryptic post mentioned November I believe. Maybe next November.

Knew it had to be bad news when I saw that link to a post by amar. 
Sure enough a few minutes later the news dropped.
3 weeks to go, honestly it really does suck to do this now, it was starting to feel so close. Didn't Kaz quote just like a month ago after TGS "no more delays"?
Was planning to take some time off work, cancelling that now I guess.

They should just rename the game to Gran Turismo Forever at this point.
It may just be a good bet...unfortunately but the absence of a clear explanation seems to imply that it is not just a small issue...

Ditto. I am actually relieved even though I feel horrible for the millions of people that have been waiting very patiently for GT5.
The Forza boys are going to love this news.

I knew it, 19 days before release, the truth comes out. What else should we all expect. Thank you PD for another disappointment. I really want to know what the delay is for, what aspect of the game still needed polishing.

Whenever I go to sleep I check my phone's calendar and look at November 2nd and say "Hmm... days are moving so fast, we're getting close to GT5!". And I wake the next day and look at the calender just to see where we're. But now, it's .... no more.
I mean .... SCREW BLACK OPS
!! ..... I'm so screwed right now. I'll have to redo my gaming schedule

OK the next one to ignore me, the AUP and the swear filter will not just see the post they made deleted. They will also find a 10 point infraction waiting for them.
This thread is going to get busy enough without the staff having to spend an age cleaning it up.
Zero tolerance from this point on.

I put 100% blame on Kaz. He wanted to pack in too much...inevitably the planning stages didn't quite cover the amount of work required to get this game absolutely to his standard.
Now, though, I've got a bad feeling that cuts will be made. There's a few area's that might suffer the consequences on this ongoing development process.
I really would like a response from Kaz about why it's been delayed. He knows there are millions waiting to play the damn game so we should at least get a reason why from the man in charge.
My heart is broken.

Wow...Will this game ever get released?
I Hope KY realizes it will NEVER be perfect.
