Specifically he wants it to deal with how we should ”come to terms with death.” It’s ”already explored” in music, movies and literature. He talks about GT5 too.
”It would make me happy to see a game that really makes you think about how a person should live and how they should come to terms with death,” said Polyphony Digital’s Kazunori Yamauchi during DICE 2011.
”This theme is something that’s already explored in other forms of entertainment, whether it be music, movies or literature. It’s really a dream that I have, but obviously someone here can make it as well.” RPGs are likely best suited for this ‘dream theme’.
The racing developer also said he driven by mimesis, ”a certain reaction when you meet something incredible, find something new, and are infected with feverish desire to do something,” explained Yamauchi-san.
”What I want to do with Gran Turismo is invoke this mimesis on the audience of players.” That is at least when the games release and don’t get mega delays anyway. Do you feel that games should be taking death a little more seriously?
