I wonder how many times they will postpone this one

Not racing out to buy a PS3 just yet. Maybe I should start saving for a PS5

Supposedly with Bathurst.

Some updates on GT6:

Gran Turismo 6 will be released worldwide on December 6, 2013, as announced by Sony during their Gamescom 2013 press conference.



Brands Hatch confirmed
Goodwood Hill Cliimb confirmed
Silverstone confirmed

Sure do...

Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu has shared their latest interview with GT series creator Kazunori Yamauchi:

With less than three months until the Gran Turismo 6 release date, Famitsu asked Kazunori for an update on how the game is progressing:


“It’s really hard to give an accurate answer to that. The basic components are already complete, so overall I’d have to say about 80 percent. The physics engine, the steering controls; those parts of the user interface are things that we fine tune-right up to the very end. Things like the game modes; I can say that those are complete.”

The game’s driving physics have also been modified since GT Academy 2013 was released as the first public GT6 demo back in July, and the new physics will be available in the latest build of the game to be shown at next week’s Tokyo Game Show.

Kazunori also briefly discussed the new mobile apps which will integrate with Gran Turismo 6, hinting that they may allow players to send and receive messages with other players using their smartphones and tablets.

As for hardware, Kazunori had positive things to say about both the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3, which will host GT6. He also used this opportunity to hint at when we could expect Gran Turismo 7 on the new console:


“The PlayStation 4′s large memory size is a unique trait,” he said, “but in terms of CPU performance, the PS3′s Cell chip, while difficult to handle, is really capable. They both have different advantages. Besides, I think the online community aspect, one of the most fun parts of GT, doesn’t have anything to do with the platform.

The PlayStation 4 game which we’ll likely call GT7 will be done in about a year or two, I think, and I think the community aspect’s going to be vital there as well.”

In summary, Kazunori stresses that there are two major areas of focus for Polyphony Digital with Gran Turismo 6, driving physics and interaction with the “real world”:


“We’re devoting ourselves to two forces in GT6. One is honing the internal mechanics of the game, the physics engine and user interface and so on. Another is pushing the title’s external energies, trying to help it break out of the shell of the video-game industry.”

I think a little bit of wee just came out

Playstation just got added to my Christmas list.

That will definantly be a good pass time until I can be bothered to get an X-box One.

Bathurst looks glorious but where are the Aussie cars Kaz!?! Still, a must buy. GT is the only reason I bought a ps3 and GT5 was poo...

forza is better trust me

Def buying this game. More than enough reason to keep my ps

So it has more tracks than Forza 5, It has more Skylines than Forza 5 has total cars... Yet it's still only competition, it should be blasting Forza out of the ball park, but it's not because it is using 15 year old content

If gt had a livery editor I would probably just buy 6 and a ps3 and wait for FM6

Yeah GT isn't quite the package that FM is. At least GT hasnt gone in a different direction to please the bean counters with bulk day one sales to gamers in general and racers alike. But it's a shame Polyphony hasn't really expanded their product with more customization and a better online side, perhaps not dissimilar to FM and with a proper performance points system with classes.

I'd more so do it so I have something to tide me over until I can afford an xbone. I want to get FM5 ASAP but I just can't justify $700 for one and forza, especially with recent developments

I can't wait  

When does this come out? Might have to find me a nice cheap PS3. Will any PS3 run it? EB has a 40gb PS3 per owned for $138.

I think it is early December for release. As for the console the 40GB should be fine... If that is all that it being used for that is. I do recall that the 12GB had to be wiped clean to fit the GTAV install.

The downside will be online play if PS Plus is required as it cost the same as Live for a year.
