Gran Turismo 5 – Release Closing In

Posted on November 11th, 2010 in Console – 19 Comments

Even though Sony has yet to confirm an official release date, various evidence suggests that Gran Turismo 5 for the Playstation 3 will be available in stores this month, maybe even as early as less than two weeks from now.

Several websites are reporting that retailers have been informed of a planned release between November 23 and 29, differing in exact dates from source to source. Sony has yet to make an official release announcement, it seems like they´re being extra-cautious this time to avoid another delay at any cost, in case something goes wrong with the distribution process that’s underway for quite a while now.

As reported earlier, several people have already gotten their hands on retail copies as lots of video material has surfaced on Youtube. The videos reveal some interesting stuff such as the extensive tuning menus, car dealerships and more.

A hot topic of discussion have always been GT5′s sounds and while many have dismissed Polyphony Digital’s statement that the final sounds will be revealed in the retail version, it seems like the developers have kept their promise as both the premium and standard cars in Gran Turismo 5 seem to have received majorly overhauled sounds as you can check out below.

Gran Turismo 5 will be bringing 1000 cars and over 60 tracks to the Playstation 3, including new features such as damage, weather and day/night effects. GT5 will be one of the first six Playstation 3 games to be available in 3D.

    Has anyone noticed that while you can see through the players windows clearly into the car, all the other cars in the field have super heavy tint?

  • Ding Dong

    Please, like I said earlier learn how to type in understandable english! Nice try but come on, you are putting yourself in a very bad light.

  • Ding Dong

    I get the feeling that this game will be played intensively the first two weeks, then a realization will emerge, one that dates back to 2001…

  • Jezza

    Yeah the fact that it will be virtually the same as the old ones, just newer graphics, and omg 3D yay because everyone owns a 3D tv rite?………. RITE?

  • Jezza

    Ding Dong… How about you learn ENGRISH… You know not all people who use the internet have it as their 1st language. So instead of thinking some people are stupid or retarded because they dont spell properly, stop and think.. they might just be French…

  • lans

    marry me jezza so we can have kids and leave gt alone and look after nappies

  • Jezza

    Fair enough Lans, but do they let poofters adopt? either way id rather get laid then have 1000 cars (500 of wich would be a variation of skylines)

  • lans

    boo ur a man u suck stop hating on gt so much, are you jealous or something?

  • lans

    i mean what is your so called favorite game?
    forza ? iracing ? gtr? how many cars and tracks and features that gt5 has?

    Are they pitstops at night?
    seriously your hate is unjustified dood, be calm

  • Jezza

    Who cares about pitstops at night, who cares about 1000 cars when only 50 will be worth while… You know what i care about realism, great physics and being able to race againts 30+ people online. I dont mean to burst your bubble lans but gran tourismo stopped being good many years ago… around when gt3 was released if i remember correctly. Hundreds of cars is nothing, and annoying tyre sounds fuck me my ears bleed.
    Maybe if youd get out of that bubble and try some good pc sims you will understand GT has nothing.
