This is quite agonizing for GT fans especially as the game is 90 percent done, according to Polyphony head Kazunori Yamauchi. More delay?
”We believe that launching the product this fall, before Christmas, but not yet decided,” said Armstrong speaking with Spanish website Canarias Al Dia, according to GT Planet and some Google translation.
”I do not rule that uses the MC but I doubt it. ‘GT 5′ is a great hope for Sony, a very important game for the company, which generates much income.”
”We would have wanted him out before but we think the priority we are giving it our best. I’m very confident in this game that we launch this year and help us consolidate PS3 as the console that is large.” Yes, obviously some patchy translation there.
Still it brings very little comfort to GT fans as the game was already due Q4 2009, only to be shunted into 2010. Japan expects Gran Turismo 5 in March after its delay, with Sony Europe only saying a European date will be announced ”in due course.”
Are you growing impatient for Gran Turismo 5, or does it not appeal to you?
