Not really, the fact that it's still coming this year tells you exactly why it was delayed to begin with. It didn't pass Sony's certification. Which basically means that there's some nasty bug/s in it that need to be cleaned up. It basically means that once it passes they'll be able to announce the final release date and know that they can make it as all that they'll need to do after that is press the discs.

I believe PD have bitten off more than they can chew. When I heard 1000ish cars (back a long time ago), it seemed incedible, but given that's what they were planning, I took it at face value.
I obviously have no idea what goes on in PD, but it just stinks of bad management.
Remeber at the beginning of this year, when the Japan release was delayed, a lot of people blamed Sony PR for the delay. It's clear that this was down to PD's progress. I can only believe this is again PD's failings. There is not point in making a "perfect" game, if you can never finish it.
I don't mind so much they delays, it's the way PD continually string us along, putting the carrot in our faces and whipping it away at the last minute. This is a very poor way to treat your customers. PD must have known for weeks, if not months, that they would not get the game out for the beginning of November.

The lack of hyper-hype was very suspicious, they have known for some time the game would not ship.
The fact that the russian retailers are "not accepting per-orders" also indicates the game is likely not to ship this year. It is pathetic as usual we had to find out through a "rumors" the game would not ship as promised, yet again.
My guess is GT5 will not ship this year, 1st or 2nd quarter 2011 is likely. I am going to cool my temper, wait a few days, but I am likely to cancel my pre-order. When this thing is REAL and at stores I will buy it.

Yep, i'm annoyed, i am sure we all are. But for some reason i am not as angry as i expected to be, like i just knew it was coming. Oh well, but what im skeptical at is that they say "This holiday season" so what? December? anything past December and i will be a very unhappy person

The Euro blog specifically says that it'll be out before this Christmas.

You guys sure are an optimistic lot.
When you're old and cynical like me, you'll probably come to the same conclusion on your own that they likely won't be adding anything. They're trying to make it work with that they have and probably contemplating removing some features that just aren't working, which they'll try to re-engineer into GT6.

That nit picking over words. My main concern was that you finished your argument with such a statement. Mainly because Khaddar had a point which clearly indicated that he has some knowledge about the GT series. Unecessary provocation if you ask me but let's move on.

You can't be fooling people over and over again like that Sony/PD!!!
I bought a G25 2 years ago for GT5 which wass supposed to come out "soon".
Now the G25 is replaced by the G27, and still no GT5!!!!
I bought a HD tv for my GT5 cockpit, that was before anyone even talked about 3d tv's.
I would rather have a 3d tv if I had to buy today.
So here I am with and old tv and old steering wheel, and still no go**amn GT5!
Point is. Polyphony/Sony, you owe me 2000 dollars!!!!

I am with you in this. It was to good to be tru. Lets hope they skip some things our community don't like and make sure the sound is correct and that we don't have to deal with the GTPSP garage shuffle.
