they'll release it just in time for "Administrative assistant" day - I bothers me they didn't specify "which" holiday they would release it for....... Greek Orthodox Xmas ? Chinese New Year ? we've got a whole year of "holidays".

What other games does Sony have coming around the same time?
They could cut production by 50% on one of the games so they have 50% of the resources to burn GT5 too, and not have too much of a delay.
Ok sounds like they are still working on it....because I came straight from this frontpage where some insider from sony said it was the hackers fault etc. Maybe sony/pd should start to talk together så they dont get caught with their pants down lying
Ofcourse one could be telling the truth...
Apparently, finalizing some areas of the game's more complicated systems is taking time.
So in 3-4 months they will more than likely be able to copy version 3.50 anyway so the loss will still be there (Them Pirates are quicker than PD).
No I don't even know how the pirated PS3's work or ever seen one. The reason I started playing games on the PS3 was that they were too many cheaters on PC's.![]()
Is anyone even looking at the news page?

Firmware 3.50 is what's holding it back... like I said originally... jailbreak protection.
They are working to make sure their big title is as jailbreak proof as possible and also as strong a tool as possible to make jailbreak users choose between jailbreak and GT5.

Imagine a couple hundred thousand lost sales due to pirating (think China, Russia, and other communistical places distributing copies as well as P2P).

There is being a loyal GT5 supporter and there is being blinded by Sony/PD and ones admiration for GT5. Some people like yourself Scope are in the latter category and will take GT5`s further delay faithfully on the chin with a smile and say thats ok i`ll just place my pre-order receipt for GT5 next to the my one for Duke Nukem Forever,it`s all good `cause i know they will both come when they are ready!
I think the majority of fans are sick of the wait,it really is becoming a joke now. GT5 was suspossed to be a PS3 release title. Many people in Aus dropped just over AU$1000 on a 60gb PS3 in march 2007 in anticipation of GT5,to be told it`s been held a few months. Ok no problems. Xmas `07 passes and still no GT5,we now might not get it for xmas `10. The saying "Last straw that breaks the camel's back" comes to mind here scope.
Hopefully it`s only a minor delay caused by the SDK issue,but it does beg the question of what next?![]()
There is no communist country and has never been one in modern times, those states either are, or used to be, socialist states. If you read the book, communism means the absence of government, a stateless country, wich isn't the case here. Unless you seek very small societies living in very remote places, isolated from our civilisation, you haven't witnessed communism and know nothing about it except the theory. You should educate yourself and learn the truth about our world and its history, like the fact that capitalism never defeated socialism, in reality democracy prevailed over tyranny.
It's simple, they can't take any more pre-orders. Those who have already pre-ordered don't have to panic....I guess.I ordered my collector's edition from amazon and they pulled it. I guess they sold out? I checked my open orders and it's still there so...
Did you bump your head or eat some bad poutine?
haha
Rosh Hashanah 2014!

Pffft.....everyone knows it's going to be released at Chanukah 2014.
As for the rest of you, STOP YOUR WHINING!! I swear, with some of the reactions coming out of people's heads on here, you'd think that Kaz had home invaded your house and kicked your mother's head like it was a soccer ball.
lalaurentide, are you serious about that with communism?? Go and check out Cuba and tell Fidel Castro (well, now Raul Castro) that there's no communism in the world. Check North Korea out too while you're at it and tell Kim-Jong Il that he's running a great democracy.Comments like that are proof that my current status is on the money with some people.

Growing up, did you ever get really mad at a game? I mean really mad. You know, you are trying to beat this certain level and you cannot seem to beat it. You throw this fit and one of your parents hear you... They come in there confused. Wondering why you are allowing yourself to be so frustrated. It is a game right? It is supposed to be enjoyed. The moment you start taking this stuff seriously, well that is your problem.
People like you, seem to be missing the point.
In other words, I have a degree in Political Science and will probably be in Peace Corps this time next year. There are things that are worth my negativity. There are things that are worth my angst. But a game? No way, I will blindly enjoy that thank you. And I certainly won't throw a moody like I am 8 years old. Because only children should be allowed to get upset over these things. I mean, it is everything in their world. However, for adults like you and me... Well if you are getting this upset, maybe you should stop playing and go to bed.
I feel pretty confident that 3.50 onward will never be cracked
