Re: The more likely release date for GT5.

[ Edited ]

Sad face was due to it no longer coming out at the end of March. I wasn't saying I wanted them to give false dates, I just want to play it! :smileyvery-happy:

 

I guess Feb/March is going to be a busy enough time with all of the new releases to keep me entertained until summer.

Re: The more likely release date for GT5.

As i posted in another thread, I think it's to do with Year End sales targets. Sony say they are going to reach them even without GT5 being released, so I think they are pushing the game back to a new Sales Year to add to the targets for that year.

 

It's all to do with Taxes, Profit and Losses and I think they are pushing it back to offset against losses they may be making, possibly??

 

Anyway, the game will still probably sell really well as we don't have any other game on the PS3 quite like it, its just whether with all the delays, the sales are as good as Sony hopes?

Re: The more likely release date for GT5.

Sorry to be negative, but we have waited so bloody long for this to be released, that I do not believe

anything they say anymore.

I don't think they will ever release it due to financial reasons, but if they do IT BETTER BE THE BEST GAME EVER RELEASED!!!!!!!

Re: The more likely release date for GT5.

Oh it will be. GT4 still knocks the socks off every racing game I can think of.

 

To look at the positive, if it is a summer release, at least it won't interfere with my studying so much.

 I'd love to hear your reasoning behind this claim, but it just can't make sense. Prologue has already raised the majority of GT5's development costs, the work is pretty much finished and we're just waiting for marketing to get in gear.

 

GT5 is a billion dollar franchise that SONY won't ignore.

 Sorry but I believe the term here is that you are talking out of your arse.  GT5 will be released. Polyphony will not put 5 years of hard work and millions of Yen, Dollars, Pounds  or what ever currency you like  into the game for Sony not to release due to financial constraints. Biggests load of bull since they said they found weapons of mass destruction in Iraq!!! 

 

Dont think its dangerous for you.

There is a new video on GT5P about the sls amg mercedes and it says that GT5 will be released along side the sls which is spring, go download it and tell us how you read it? That is what i make of it anyway.
