More GT6 Pre-Order Incentives Announced for Japan

japan-preorder-gt6

Japanese consumers will get a bonus in the form of two 15th Anniversary Edition cars when they pre-order a copy of GT6 at a participating retailer, as announced on the official site earlier this week.

Screen Shot 2013-10-11 at 10.33.42 PMThe special Ford Focus ST and Toyota 86 will be made available via product download code, and will be distributed in “limited quantities”, on a “first-come, first-served basis”.

These two cars are, of course, among the 25 other 15th Anniversary Edition vehicles featured in the full Anniversary Edition of GT6.

Thanks to all of you who sent this in!

    2 cars that are already in the game….only modded and with a new livery. To me…that’s not an incentive. I already made the mistake of getting the tuned car pack for GT5.
    An incentive would be a car pack with 6-7 cars like Huayra, LaFerrari, Agera, some classic Alfa Romeo, one of the prototypes show in the latest trailers, etc…

    1. Pit Crew

      Well it’s a Japanese market incentive first of all and secondly the Gamestop 15 anniversary pre order bundle has like 20 plus cars bundled in it, one of them being that Audi R-18 LMP prototype…in the special livery.

      I think if you pre order GT6 non anniversary edition you get the same early access models in the anniversary edition but no special livery.

    What i’m woundering is why no one has mentioned about in the review mirror there’s no smoke or dust to be seen!!!!!

  3. magburner

    I have only been casually been following the news regarding the launch of GT6, but they better have a premium Nismo 400R, and the inside wall of the car tyres better be modelled too. These are the only two things I am looking for, everything else, is meh.

  4. DYLAN777-is-not

    This will make maybe 6 people happy in the entire world. If I were to make a game i would actually give worth while cars like a camaro or a supra not a FF pos focus and yet another brz or a 86 gt or whatever rendition that is. I mean wheres some common sense. If it were race modded versions of the focus or 86 then YES please but stock heck no.

  5. DARIUS213456

    All these 15 anniversary cars looks great, even though the race cars needs race numbers. The Nissan GTR GT3 looks like something I will most likely use the most out of the five pre order cars.

  6. A2K78

    When you consider the fact that GT5 sold very badly in Japan, I’m not suprised by this move on PD part to add a pre-order incentive.

  7. HKS racer

    15th Anniversary liveries looks pretty lame to me. Stealth Cars looks so much better. They have carbon fiber, matte paing, gloss paint and the livery is more racey. They also have a race number.

  8. Magic Ayrton

    The best pre order incentive should come in the form of a complete GT6 with the sound quality and content that we all deserve..

    I am sure it is going to be very good though.

    Just don’t rely on some weird coloured cars to sell the game.

    1. Magic Ayrton

      No Ittybitty Stigy, I want them to spend the money and get a sound team to concentrate on the sound aspect, really not confident of them updating the sound via update anyway.

      Will be on PS4 you will see.

    1. RACECAR

      For who, the casual player who doesn’t care (or know) about physics or the hardcore sim racer? Pretty sure sim racers don’t make up anywhere near the amount the customers who buy GT.

    2. loser10

      Sooner or later all will become sim racers when they start to drive real cars because in the real world there is only one physics,hardcore physics.

    3. Magic Ayrton

      L10, I do drive real cars and have raced them too, GT is accurate enough to help me become a better driver, and that’s not even GT6.

      But again, it’s a game and just like with real cars with different setups, a good driver must adapt to the physics engine.

  9. SkilledRacer

    Those 2 cars look quite nice. I do agree with Deko though it is the birthplace of GT games so they do deserve more.

  10. Deko Wolf-GTPT

    I can’t help but feel sorry for Japanese gamers. That’s the birthplace of Gran Turismo, yet, they get all the leftovers from our American/European offers. GT Academy has reached its peak, but still, Japan does not give their local players a chance at the event.

    This saddens me.

    1. GTHEAD87

      Exactly. Giving them a limited chance to get 2 cars whixh are already part of the pre order pack. And only one of the cars is japanese.

    1. ttfn

      Obviously, you’re clueless, move along, move along…..mind tricks work easily on you so just buy and exbocs and play the crap known as forza……

    2. Rafael F

      @lose10 is a troll from youtube, he is on all videos posting things like: “GT simcade physics…” just ignore him.

    3. Johnnypenso

      You know if you guys actually did ignore the trolls, meaning don’t follow him up with a bunch of posts saying “ignore him” as opposed to not responding at all, he would go away. Trolls can’t live without attention, but you constantly give it to him so he keeps coming back.

    4. Ittybitty Stigy

      Oh, and why do you bother complaining? You clearly don’t like the physics. I have a soulution for you, stop playing the game. :lightbulb:

    5. loser10

      I bought PS2 and PS3 only for GRAN TURISMO,I like GRAN TURISMO graphics,laser scanned tracks,cars I LIKE THIS GAME BUT I WANT MORE REAL PHYSICS AND I WILL FIGHT FOR IT!

    6. Magic Ayrton

      Loser10, I agree with you to a certain extent but PD work on an evolutionary basis, gradual improvements to the game each time it is released, they have to cater for more casual gamers and they also want to keep that unique Gran Turismo feel.
      But I agree with the fact that they need to work harder on the core of the game such as physics, engine and environmental sounds and also Ai. Graphics are as good if not better than any racing game out there while keeping a realistic look.

      Guess we will have to wait and see what they bring to the table in the final release of the game.

    7. loser10

      ok.no problem I agree with that magic ayrton unique feel,but” real driving simulator”on the cover?real in a version of kazunori yamauchi!

    8. Ittybitty Stigy

      Exactly, you’ve played the GTA demo. If you’ve head from people that have played the newer builds, they say the physics are better than they were. Like others have said, wait for the game to actually release before you say it has bad physics.

    9. DYLAN777-is-not

      The physics didnt change much to the typical casual gamers but to tuners and actuall good drivers yes it really did, in a very large and good way.

    10. Umbra344

      Recent news has also mentioned that the current build of GT6 has different physics from the GT Academy ’13 download.

    11. loser10

      See you next time boys and remember GRAN TURISMO has simcade physics and we will have to fight for real physics.

    12. loser10

      adapt to yamauchi physics no thank”s I put medium or soft tires front depending on the car rear put hard tires and I do not have to adapt!

    13. Pit Crew

      How does watching your youtube videos of GT5 gameplay enforce your Opinion that the game has Simcade physics loser10?

      Quick answer it doesn’t.

    1. Blood*Specter

      What new track is in the desert and has blue curb run off? And is that a cactus I see? Willow springs? Bathurst? IDK.

    2. Falango

      I doubt it’s Bathurst. There’s no part of the course that flows that way? The only flat left hand corner that could be is either the first, last, or the one after the long downhill straight, and none of them would have a part of the track visible behind it like that image has.

  11. Blood*Specter

    All I know about either car is what I’ve seen of them on Top Gear. I still would have the 25 15th anniversary cars to drive from the GameStop pre-order. It’s all good, I’m happy for Japan players.

  12. HuskyGT

    It’s a random choice, but both cars are cool. That Focus is really nice. I wish they kept the Volvo L5 Turbo in it though.

  13. That_guy100

    @ScotteDawg

    You are an ignorant git! Who the hell are you to insult someone and call them stupid over their own religious beliefs? It’s their business whether they want to believe in it or not. Not yours. So I don’t see why you would get butthurt over BWX simply just typing “God”. It’s not like he was forcing his religion on you or anyone, and he only said the name. If anyone has showcased their stupidity here, it’s you. And then to arrogantly force your own views on him after insulting by saying “No such being exists” as if you know everything about the world, and everything that happened before it (which you don’t). There is no evidence to prove that he doesn’t.

    Stop being a close minded, intolerant a$$hole and realize that the world is full of people from different walks of life who have their own beliefs and ideals. Calling someone “stupid” because they have different views than you do is incredibly childish and ignorant, as well as completely unwanted and not tolerated in this society. If you don’t believe that a deity exists, that’s fine. If you do, that’s fine as well. Just stop attacking people when there is a difference in opinion. They aren’t hurting you in any way, so lay off.

    Good day, sir.

    1. masterrawad

      Sweet mother of everything, you’re spitting pure hate against a user… That didn’t even post a word here yet…?

    2. HarVee

      Shouldn’t this be a reply to ScotteDawg’s reply in the “Kazunori Yamauchi on His First Car Accident, Automotive Culture in America, & More” Article?

      Your comment is completely unrelated to Japan Pre-order incentives.

    3. TheFlyingScot

      Just saying but there was not really a need to go on a rant. Just ignore it because it has nothing to do with you. And on the topic of “God”, there is also nothing to prove he does exist either. But, yet again that’s just my belief.

    4. GTHEAD87

      Who says god has a gender? Who says any of this is real and not a transition to another realm. Either way scottedog, you have no rights either to post such a thing. Im not a beliver of any god but I know other intelligent beings created us. Its damn near impossible for us to evolve from chimps and still have chimps what haven’t changed running about. I wouldnt think to offend anyone by my views so I dont talk about it at all. This is a rare type of post for me.

      Now, back to the REAL reason people come on here. GT6 news

      good day.

    5. ScotteDawg

      The reason I brought it up is because BWX mentioned god in the first place! If he had NOT brought god into the conversation, I wouldn’t gone on about it!

      This is not a site to talk about god, it is a site to talk about racing games, so BWX should cop as much criticism as you are dishing out to me for bringing god up in the previous article! You, That_guy100, are more of an ignorant git than what you think I am for going on this tirade before thinking of why I said what I said!

      GRAN_TURIMAN – No comment! No lol…

    6. Pit Crew

      ScotteDawg you do realise this site has an Off Topic discussion thread, (The Rumble Strip) and as far as Gaming, we are not limited to just talking about Racing titles here. BWX using the word God in his post doesn’t warrant that much disdain from any of us.

    7. Pit Crew

      Opinions & Current Events is a site option that offers users the chance to debate about the issues which shape our life, so no gtplanet is not just a place to discuss race games. Jordan Greer is hardly a linear thinking individual.

    8. Tenacious D

      Wow… I don’t even want to know what the fuss is all about. I can see such a discussion has nothing to do with exchanging ideas or considering them thoughtfully. You’d think someone mentioned Forza or MS in a disparaging way. Not that I’ve ever done that… >.>

      But then, this is The Real Complaining Board so par for the course.

  14. GRAN_TURISMAN

    Wow too bad we aren’t getting those here in the states! Oh we’ll I have my copy already ordered and paid for! December, 6 2013 can’t come fast enough!

      @GTHEAD87:

      This are after the 1200 cars. The point I make though is that he says those (reffering to the Pre-order cars) aren’t coming to the US, all the while there is a huge list (That’s been there since E3) of 25 Pre-order cars, which includes both of these and its offered by Gamestop, a US game company.

    1. That_guy100

      Chrome cars were never released to the public outside of the special edition of GT5, so these could remain exclusive as well.

    2. Youngun

      They should never go back on exclusives unless stated as “timed” bad marketing and could lose trust on next pre-order. Always loved taking my chromes online, they were that slightly bit fastest then normal cars.
