Sometimes people mistake truth for boast, even if said truth’s uttered with utmost humility. But when there’s no going around something, whether it sounds boastful or not, it must be told.
For Sony, the racing genre “needs” GT5. Truth.
Sony’s Michael Denny told Develop that the game’s “far from looking dated, it will look state of the art,” he said.
“I think it is the game that the driving genre absolutely needs. And Gran Turismo for PlayStation will move that on again.”
The hardware giant knows it has a winner in Gran Turismo, and for them, the franchise must be kept at the highest quality.
Denny continued: “I think when you have got a game like Gran Turismo, which is THE PlayStation franchise, then you want the game to be absolutely right and to the highest quality.”
“I think that now we’ve announced the date and we know this is a Gran Turismo year, it’s not only exciting for us at PlayStation company, but for PlayStation fans and consumers. And it’s going to be bigger and better than ever. From a worldwide studio perspective, our strategy is always to concentrate on the highest quality possible.”
Adding: “We need exclusive games that differentiates our platform, Gran Turismo has always been our flagship title and I am sure it is going to be that again.”
Buy GT5 on November 2nd in the US, with Europe seeing a November 3rd release.
Video Thirst: Damage In GT5
Over at GTPlanet, ten new off-screen videos of Gran Turismo 5 taken from the Best Buy conference in the US.
The first vid shows the title’s damage modelling system at work, with the others showing cars driving around tracks, over hills and what not.
Quench them:
yes it does, lol. I can’t wait for this. Also, is anybody getting NHL 11? It looks pretty good and I just got it on gamefly and should have it soon.
Oh yeah, tell me how it is first, then I’ll make a decision.
The return of the real driving simulator!
I just won this game!!!! I went to subway today and the food I ordered came with codes to win prizes online. I entered them as soon as I got home and I won GT5 and a Charlie’s Angels movie rental.
Wait, what?!?! You’re serious man? Congratulations bro! Great job!
@Ernice
I will let you know. I played the demo and it is pretty fun. It took a little while to get use to it though. It has gotten good reviews.
@Ernesto22
I hate you. LOL. I have done the subway thing 5 times and have not won anything. Did you place the hot tamales on the board and it showed you what you won? Where did you place them?
@RedBullGT33
I’ve been playing for a few days, since my friends and family members give me their codes. I won on my forth day playing. I think you win after a certain number of tries, but here’s my setup:
X O O O O X
O O O X X O
O X X O O O
Thanks. I hope I win something.
LOL, good for you, Ernesto! I’m jealous!
@RedBullGT33: Okay cool. @Enesto22: And really cool, you couldn’t ask for a better prize. GT5 is indeed killer. The best.
id want to be after 6 years of development and rumored to cost 60 freaking million smackaroos!
i mean they will get that back in the first day of sales, easily!
but, still, 60 million bucks is a shit load of cashola!
Cashola, a new word?
no, not a new word zeeke says it in infamous.
I have actually heard that word a lot.
@Ernesto22: you bastard! lol. Seriously though, congrats, I guess I’ll be buying some footlongs for lunch now.
I gave some codes to my bro and apparently the codes are reusable. This means that there’s a pretty high chance that the codes are on the internet. However, there’s a footnote that says the I am subject to verification(I have no clue what they mean by that).
Subject to verification? I guess it means it means there’s only one winner per code.
You should be alright
