GT5 Latest News & Discussion

[Allstar]

You guys remember when the PS3 slim was announced right? There was a shroud of secrecy and the rumor mill had been running at full bore. In a matter of a couple of hours after the "official" 'announcement, major gaming media bloggers, magazines, and television had their hands on it and were posting their thoughts, unboxings, etc. I wouldn't put it past Sony to have GT5 on shelves by this Tuesday. BO and GT5 have nothing to do with each other except guaranteeing GT5 will be sold at midnight at every store selling BO at midnight. I would like to see GT5 take on NFS:HP3 the following Tuesday.

We'll find out shortly.

Yeah, but Dave, they already have the advertising done, so even if they hold off the TV and gaming sites with the advertising, it still takes time to replicate, package, send to distributors, and then to retailers.

Would I like a Midnight drop of GT5/ You bet. Does Sony REALLY need to advertise this title, Nope. The people on the GT forums globally have been waiting for it for so long and have every tidbit of information on it, they don't need advertising. They need the game.

I think that all of the interviews and video game shows and magazine articles that have been plastered all over the internet have saved PD/Sony a ton of advertising money. So in reality, I take back the advertising crap I said earlier, it's just a matter of distribution after production and packaging.

This difference with the slim was they were still selling the existing product (fat) and didn't want those to stop selling because the public knew a new model was coming out. They need reviews in all media and adverts on TV and in the press to push GT5 so I don't think they'll announce it's on shelves now(ish) as they need more build up to maximise sales, I hope I'm wrong though!

Very valid point. 👍

A surprise release is one way sony can get a lot of cred back with everyone ...

 

[hardvibes]

Finland has a digi expo, GT5 is demonstrated without a time limit. Nothing new.

It kinda sucks to have a demonstration of what we've seen thousands of times on a very large screen, and with those awful sounds...

jordans doing one hell of a write up!

Or maybe he's already playing the final code of GT5

What makes you think that? Or another question, about what should/could he be writing right now? Sorry but I missed the last couple of days

 

[irnbrutwinturbo]

I can't help but believe something is cooking. Too many secrets, too few screenshots.

I do, have more faith than ever that GT5 is coming this year, before Christmas.

Where is Amar? He always pops up when the forum is at it's peaks.

On top of this, nobody can argue against the numbers, constantly over 1000 viewers of this thread. I always believe in people having natural hype when they sense something big.

Or else, I'm going slightly crazy.

[Jordan]

Unfortunately, I don't yet have any new information or updates regarding "the disc" yet.

Perhaps there's nothing to say.

Has GTPlanet ever broke news? I don't know.

Edit* ninja'd by the man.

 

[reddevilmark]

Are you able to say why you had to take the picture down? Or have you and I just missed it..

 

[Rossell2]

Unfortunately, I don't yet have any new information or updates regarding "the disc" yet.

Wait we referring to this Aussie bloke, or something from Sony yet?

I'm rather confused over the events of the last 24 hours tbh.

 

[Marsekay]

Unfortunately, I don't yet have any new information or updates regarding "the disc" yet.

You were gonna find out if it was fake or not?

Either by getting the real version....( let's hope so!) Or being told. Which is less exciting.

Jordan! It's TIME!

 

[Akira AC]

Don't know what you guys are expecting off Jordan. Sony's not said anything about stolen discs or release dates.
I doubt Jordan will tell you anything you Don't already know.

Hope I'm wrong.

Complete agree with that,if there is a leaked disc we already should see some leaked pics,and since noting new has come out since October,I think that the next thing about GT5 will be from the full game and no demo,so far we are still in the same way before delay release,still waiting for new news that I'm afraid will be on December at this rate,yeah the discs are apparently being printed but I'm stating to doubt about it.

Just to bring everyone back to what was the main topic of discussion a week or so ago.

Now this song is properly stuck in my head. Can really see how it's gonna work with the intro. Yes the quality is dodgy but at least you can hear most of the instruments properly in this clip.

 

[TheDabbinDave]

It's happening, it's REALLY happening!!!

 

[gtone339]

It can't be the PAL intro song? Or is it?

 

[Owen.C93]

are you able to say why you had to take the picture down? Or have you and i just missed it..
