They better do SOMETHING like that!!! I read that maybe it could be because of the lack of detail the standard cars have; or some on-line server problems or something... I can get by the standard car detail problems, but it's not like they haven't had Prologue to figure out te multi-player, so I'm not biting on that one.

We BETTER be able to add on Z28 when it finally comes though!!! This game better be then end all be all...

GTPlanet Post

Fans are still feeling the sting from Gran Turismo 5’s postponed November release date, but hopefully we won’t have to wait too much longer to find out the game’s new date according to this tweet by Sony Computer Entertainment Europe:

Yes, the GT5 European has also been delayed, we are sorry to say. We expect to confirm a new release date before the end of the month.

Of course, considering the “holiday season” was mentioned as a release target in their original announcement, this shouldn’t come as much of a surprise but hopefully will help calm the fears of concerned fans.

GTPlanet Post 2

Eurogamer has some interesting comments from financial and industry analysts on what the delay means for Sony and the PlayStation brand this fall during the critical Christmas sales season.

Capital Research’s Jesse Divnich: ”I don’t believe a GT5 delay impacts Sony’s current momentum. GT5 is such an anticipated title that delays are unlikely to impact consumer’s purchase intent. Whether released a week later or the last week of December, sales will be astronomical.”

Wedbush Securities’ Michael Pachter: “Without knowing the date, it’s impossible to say,” he said. “If it’s a week, no impact. If after Need for Speed, they could lose some momentum.”

M2 Research’s Billy Pidgeon: ”Another delay on Gran Turismo is disappointing, especially to the most enthusiastic fans of the franchise. Still, there have been so many delays that another one is not surprising. Obviously, there’s not much time left in the holiday season so Yamauchi and Polyphony have got to go gold within two months.

I wouldn’t revise PS3 uptake estimates on this news as it is still possible GT5 is released in Q4 2010 or Q1 2011 and is likely to spur new and upgrade console sales. Sony has set the visuals bar pretty high with Gran Turismo,” he offered, “so it is crucial that the graphics (as seen on HDTV and in stereoscopic 3D with camera-based head tracking) impress the critics and the fans. Gran Turismo 5’s timely release is perhaps even more crucial to Sony’s 3D TV division than it is to PS3. In-store demos of GT5 may be the best case Sony can make to consumers for 3D TV.”

Sounds a little like the delays are more to sell Sony products... I hope that's not totally the case, per se. I want the best product possible, but you gotta' draw the line somewhere...

Got my Maxim in the mail today and saw this for the PS3/PC.

$250

I like my Microsoft racing wheel but I don't care for when the pedals slide away from me. The item above would fix that!

*radz28* · 10-20-2010, 04:40 PM

I just got notification the new date is 12/31/10!!!

I'm hoping this was just a generic date until it's been established by Sony...

I'm reading that Sony is promoting a whole bundle, including GT5, when a customer purchases a 3D TV before X'mas, so that's a little encouraging!

Epitaph · 10-26-2010, 02:15 AM

I'm going to laugh my ass of when they push it back again.

I never believed them until I picked up my copy of GT4 and put the disc in.

Ok...scratch that. I'm going to wish I at least had a PS3 when they push back the release date.

I received an update for my pre-order from Best Buy. It seems like it's just a generic date, but we should be hearing a more complete annoucement from Sony by the end of the month...

We'll see

According to this, the new release date is 12/7/2010. MAYBE.

Who the F knows anymore.
