[mXm] BalzOnYer4Head Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 Gran Turismo 5 has been delayed. But according to Sony, not for long. There have been rumors and reports that the game narrowly missed its deadline for the November 2 release. Because of that, there is chatter that the game is being held up by Blu-ray production delays. In a tweet yesterday, GT5 designer Kazunori Yamauchi wrote the game still needed some finalizing. There are also claims that the game has been delayed due to the recent PS3 hack. It was apparently was about to go to production, but needed to be updated so it ships with the latest firmware to ensure that the game is pirate-proof. "There are numerous reasons why we need a little more time, but I'm not going to go into them," a spokesperson from Sony Computer Entertainment of Europe told Kotaku. "What matters is that the delay will be a short one and the game will live up to expectations." Ultimately, that is all that matters. While Sony was initially unwilling to comment on whether the driving simulator will be out this year or early next, these recent comments, along with Yamauchi saying he wanted the title out by the year's end, do seem to indicate that Gran Turismo 5 will finally be out sooner, rather than later. Courtesy Kotaku I will also be sharing a few more videos I found to help with the pain of this slight delay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[mXm] andy19 Posted October 21, 2010 Report Share Posted October 21, 2010 Just read this - more insight into the delay More information is slowly filtering out about GT5’s delay, and it fits in neatly with everything else we’ve learned about the game’s production in the past 24 hours. Here’s what was recently posted by Maximus – a respected moderator at the Blu-Ray.com forums with reported connections to Sony: Like I said it is manufacturing issues. I had it confirmed today. The problem arose when SCE mandated SDK 350 on all games releasing after after October, GT5 was about to go gold running on SDK 341, but it has been delayed by around a week so that they can update to SDK 350. This has caused a big headache for the manufacturing side, given how big this game is missing the gold date by even a week can cause a months worth of delay as slots are already taken up at this time of year for Blu-ray movies and such. So Sony had to find a 3 week slot big enough to make 7m+ copies of this and get them shipped out. If you want to blame anyone, I would direct it at the pirates and hackers, SCE never had any real SDK restrictions before firmware 3.41 was compromised. After getting attention from news outlets such as Eurogamer and TheSixthAxis, evidence of the post has since been removed, but it offers a very reasonable explanation about why Polyphony Digital missed their production window by only 3 days. Sure enough, the new PS3 3.50 firmware is considerably more secure than 3.41 and preventing distribution of a 3.41-compatible GT5 will ensure that it can’t be pirated (for now).

[mXm] BalzOnYer4Head Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 I had read somewhere as well that it was related to production issues with the BluRay, but that really seals the deal as to what caused the blue ray production "issues". So it has nothing to do with the game, just Sony wanting to protect its crown jewel from hackers and pirates. Lame, you could of just gave it to us in a firmware update the day before the street date. Assholes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would have been a hell of a lot easier, and created a lot less frustration if they just made everyone download a patch or something on the first day. Arseholes indeed.

[mXm] andy19 Posted November 2, 2010 Report Share Posted November 2, 2010 UPDATE!!!! With a bit of luck, we might even have the game before Christmas! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[mXm] BalzOnYer4Head Posted November 3, 2010 Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 Yesh! That is good news indeed! In the previous find yyouhad it stated they needed a three week production window to get it done. Looks like they found it. I have read in some other places that the 27th for Europe and the following Tuesday for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[mXm] andy19 Posted November 5, 2010 Report Share Posted November 5, 2010 Just checking the EB Games site, and it seems as though they think GT5 will be out December 7th (my original guess at the release date after they announced the delay). I'm REALLY hoping that EB knows something everyone else doesn't. http://www.gamestop.ca/Catalog/ProductDetails.aspx?product_id=253877 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[mXm] 404 Not Found Posted November 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 Will it be out for Xmas? Looks like Need for Speed sales will go up because of this... this could be a good thing for that game because GT5 will swallow the racing industry. Im actually looking forward to spending time with NFS as well. http://blog.games.yahoo.com/blog/139-will-we-see-gran-turismo-5-in-time-for-christmas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
