When is GT6 coming. PD has good reason to speed things up.

My Google-fu is weak today, but I know of which interview you speak of - Kaz did say other people in the office played competitors' games, but that he himself didn't. It wasn't quite so negative so much as it was naive, as well; IIRC, he didn't see much of a point since he sees GT5 as different from the pack.
Really, though, it wouldn't hurt him to try some other titles, or even revisit old GT's, so he can be reminded on how to make a driving game less like Pokemon and more like actual fun.

Polyphony has never felt the pressure to release a title to conincide with a rival release. I don't see why they'd start now. If there have ever been any changes to the release to coincide with rival titles, they have come once the game is ready for distribution, but the publisher has held onto it to time the release to suit themselves.

To be honest, combine all the songs from 2,3,4, and a few of GT5 and you have a great soundtrack:tup:
On Topic: The only reason PD would have to speed up there production time would be more pressure from sony.

What im saying is, with the ps3 super slim coming out, it kind of makes me wonder if sony is running out of ideas for a new system. yeah a more powerful system would be great, but it will more than likely cost a ton of money. All im saying is they should stick with the ps3 for now and wait until they have the technology to create the best system of all time. They just dont have it all together yet... and btw dont buy the super slim... lots of memory space, but its just a step down.

Spec II released on the same day as FM4, and I cannot believe that that was coincidence. Whose decision that was is open to question, but it infers that finally someone out of Sony or PD now regard FM as a rival (something they should have been doing five years ago), and while releasing a mainline GT to coincide with a rival is unlikely, IMO Spec 2 showed they'll be keeping a closer eye on what rivals are doing and when (like they should be doing anyway).
That's just silly, sorry. You'll be waiting forever if you want the 'best system of all time' which is a ridiculous notion anyway, the day any console releases something better could theoretically be released the next day.
The PS3 is very old technology now, the Super Slim coming out doesn't mean Sony are running out of ideas, it's just a progression of the hardware so it's cheaper for them to make.

Wrong. The older technology becomes, the cheaper it is to manufacturer. I'd be curious to know what PS3's cost to make in 2006, compared to now.
Same thing will be the case with the PS4. It'll cost a fortune to make at first. A couple years is all it'll take for it's technology to become outdated. After that, cheaper to manufacturer.
So while technology might slow down, it won't stop.
Please google Moores Law.

From the latest interviews, they said that Playground games and Turn10 became more like a really big studio. In the beginning it was really separated, but now its going hand in hand from what I hear. It is still crazy what they achieved together in under two years.
I want to see FM5 vs GT6 next year. Hopefully PD and Sony try to compete with Turn 10. It can only end great for the consumer.

Yes, that's what they said a hundred years ago when they thought everything had already been invented. The technological evolution will go on for as long as mankind exists, there will always be scientific breakthroughs. Who knows, maybe in one hundred years the binary computer will be regarded as antique, as they may have come up with a much better way of building computers...

MY opinion is that it releases on the PS3. I think that because Kaz is a wizzard at optimizing and getting the most out of the system, but not until the second game for each console. Then GT7 5 years after PS4 release. Just saying.

Here we call it "the pretty girl"...hope it delivers something pretty at least.
But could be problematic...or at least we can expect some "human drama" as Kaz said for sure...lol
All games had its bad cycles or days...most of them disappeared of course...but GT sells well despite the tons of critics and mostly the bad development decisions. I think GT5 is the "bad game" (which is not that bad, despite the standard cars with black interiors from PS2, engine sounds from 1998, bugs everywhere, huge loading times at release, features half finished, etc) and the next one should be the good one.
They can´t repeat the same mistakes again.
Let´s see...
How does Turn 10 manage to make a Forza game with much less time that looks polished and complete and PD cant manage to do it in 5 then?
Outsourcing most of their work:

Also polishing the same old formula and not taking risks with new gameplay features such as weather, dynamic time, rally, etc that could require to redone the whole game and can be problematic to acomodate in the limited resources of the console. That was one of the primary reasons for the GT5 delays, the game was needed to be redone every time that a new feature was finally added. I guess some of them were not planed initially for GT5 but GT6.
