What about NA racers wanting to race Suzuka?
It would be nighttime at Suzuka with cold temperatures?
:D

Heh, but yeah I get what you mean, it would be a nice feature.

yeah dude, getting a bit crazy with ideas eh? :D

i like night/day cycle in burnout (which was based on my clock), but you know what happened at the end? I turned it off :).

i am not saying it wouldnt be cool, it is just that there are other priorities...

Looking back at previous GT's, I noticed that GT4, VisionGT, GTHD (the GT4 asset version, the GT5 version didn't come until TGS), and GT5P were all unveiled at E3. So, if GT5 is going to be announced this year then E3 really does seem like the safe bet.

^ That is reassuring.

Well if it is unveiled I hope its more than just a trailer. Maybe Kaz doing a presentation during the Sony keynote?

That GT5 Prologue demonstration was obscene though (in 06 or 07?), took forever, 20 minutes minimum with not that much content.

The dynamic weather system and realistic damage/collision model will provide some much needed variety.

Unless I'm wrong, if you're talking about the E3 demo, it wasn't even GT5P. He was demoing GT4 at 1080p. GT4. AND HE PLAYED LIKE AN ENTIRE RACE. And then they talked about GTHD, which, if you remember, was like upscaled GT4 + some real GT5. It was a disaster.

Motorstorm wasn't in the keynote, so it was suspected the game was late and missed a deadline.

I find it hard to get excited about GTPortable. It's going to have to be compromised in so many ways to work on the PSP.

They should debut the GT5 trailer with Moon Over the Castle for added impact

Even though I know a new MG is coming, GT5 is all I want right now.

I want the psp version to be a little more arcadey. Pick up and play a race or two, collect some cash and buy new cars/unlock tracks.. They don't need all the technical stuff in it. Just make it look gorgeous.

Gt5 on the other hand should have a huge list of features

If GT5 has all the features that it's been reported to have then it's going to be a beast of a game. Even GT for Boys (for those that remember that) is supposed to be in GT5. So, if everything is in there then Kaz really will be able to make his RPG, because we won't be needing another GT for quite awhile.

GT PSP, yea Im still on the fence on that one... but It will be interesting to see how PD goes about it.

The intro I remember the most was GT3, the leap in terms of graphics was just amazing. Deep forest with the light coming through the trees.. I was floored :O

The intro that sticks out to me is GT2 because of all the speculation about the intro being PS2 footage. Somehow GT3 ended up looking even better than GT2's intro.

Magazine confirms the presence of Gran Turismo 5 in E3

The most recent edition of french magazine Playstation 3 indicates that the long awaited "Gran Turismo 5", Polyphony Digital's racing simulator will be shown in E3 2009, between 2 and 4 June.

According to the magazine, both Polyphony Digital and Sony Computer Entertainment will put an end to the mystery and reveal the game to the world.

But the magazine doesn't reveal in which way it'll be presentated - in playable version or in video.

E3 will be between 2 and 4 June, in Los Angeles, United States, being covered by UOL.

This fucking better be true. And I better see advancement in that game. They NEED to show proper collision, or weather change or damage.

1up is basically confirming that GT Mobile will be there also

If that weren't enough, need we remind you that we've been told from sources inside Sony that GT Mobile is coming to PSP this fall and will be unveiled at E3? Count on it.

http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3174397

I'm guessing there will be some kind of interaction between the two. But i'm not sure what since it's highly doubtful that Mobile will be a mini version of GT5.

Best news ever. If they could somehow get this game out by the end of the year...

Naw, they'll save it for next year.

am i to assume that dynamic weather would work online in online races?

i mean it would be pointless in time trials, which is what >90% of GT is all about.

- 2D grass

GT5 better look more polished than that OR ELSE... hear me SONRY?

Ok. first thing I was going to say was, you're completely wrong.Those pics look very good ; textures, lighting/ art direction is all excellent.Then I started laughing when I had a closer look at them and found out they're actual photos.:lol Polyphony!

On a related note. Checkout the livery for Pescarolo Sports 908 entry for Le Mans. They're running one in addition to the 01 LMP1 car. Hopefully it'll somehow beat the factory Peugeots with their lowly Xbox 360 side stickers.
The Audi R15s are gonna romp over everyone anyways

They also sponsored the 24 Hour Nurburgring race this year so every car on the track had a GT logo

Man Tuesday cant come soon enough..
but Im trying to keep my expectations a bit low though.

Sony and PD have been so tight lipped about GT5 that what little we know is just a rumor.
For example I find it weird that within Amars message there was no mention about weather or damage, and those two features, are more important (imo) than how many tracks or how many cars are going to be available.

Just saying.

It's possible that Polyphony was able to keep a lid on other features. At least there isn't much longer until we find out all the details. With all those rumored tracks i'm crossing my fingers that Grindelwald will be one of them. I'm also looking forward to seeing Deep Forest and Trial Mountain, as i'm sure they will both be in there.

After seeing NFS shift, Polyphony should drop to 720p and max out the graphics. It looks really nice at 1080p... but also a bit bland, and could use more detail tbh.

What does look better in Shift? Just looked at the trailer 2 mins ago and the cars + interiors looks low poly compared to GT5P. Also, the lighting wasn't as natural looking and the FPS was shite.
Maybe you noticed details in the backgrounds??

Actually I guess you're right. I've watched the trailer again and GT5P actually looks better.

Uh, no.

GT5 already looks good, but it could look even better at 720p. Some of the tracks are directly off the PS2 except with improved textures. I would rather see them drop the resolution to improve the graphics than just stay at 1080p and keep the graphics just like this.

I think if they did drop res then they would be able to make the game better looking and give more things TLC. Either way it looks amazing as it is and it's been a while since we last seen it.

Huh? GT5P that came out way back in 2007 is still the most graphically impressive racer. The only thing that needs to be fixed is the tearing.
