Gran Turismo 7 will have improved physics and AI, "big updates" planned for Gran Turismo 6

VVV: "Kaz discusses the advantages the PS4's extra processing power will provide for Polyphony:

“I still cannot go into detail, but developing on PS3 was hard: you don’t have enough memory to do all you want. Our goal was to always preserve the feel of Gran Turismo but with the latest installment we had to face limitations. With PS4 we have a lot of memory available: we’ll be able to exploit it easily, inserting elements that we had to force or withheld on PS3.

There will be better graphics, better physics engine, smarter AI and more online options.”

Really looking forward to DC, but I need my sim fix can't wait for GT7.

traumadisaster3545d ago

Perfect lines must stop, let's hope they revolutionize AI ! Other than improved sounds I think I will be in heaven.

UltraNova3545d ago

The car sounds definitely need a huge improvement and I really like to see them include realistic engine sounds.

ArchangelMike3545d ago

How'bout we get proper physics based damage modelling? Are we not in the future yet?

ATi_Elite3545d ago (Edited 3545d ago )

Improved physics and AI

Well about time we heard some real next gen talk from a console game maker. Next gen is far more bigger than 1080p 60fps my friends.

GT has its work cut out for them seeing how Pcars is also a racing simulator but Polyphony Studios will have to answer the challenge.

jay23545d ago

Can keep this and DC and PC.

All_Consoles3545d ago

Hopefully they ditch the standard cars and car sounds. I think it's time

telekineticmantis3545d ago

Why? Just so reviewers can't mention it? How bout this, if you rather use a smaller portion, of cars and tracks, dont use them, or get Driveclub. I'll take all that good to great content for my 60 dollars please. I dont need everyone nickel and dimeing me with DLC before I get a complete game thanks. Car sound yes, but I'll take 1000 cars over 500 cars any day.

All_Consoles3545d ago

I'll take 500 well made cars over 1000 generic ps2 cars and 200 well made cars

telekineticmantis3545d ago

All_Consoles
If that was the case that would be disrespectful, I'm talking 4-500 premium PS4 level cars, and they can round it out with up-resed PS3/PS2 cars of course. Leave it at a good 1000-1200 cars, then through in "vision GT" for the DLC.

MajorLazer3545d ago

It's 2014. There shouldn't be any standard cars. I have put thousands of hours into the GT franchise, and hundreds upon hundreds on GT5 and the standard cars was such a downer on the whole experience. There was nothing more ugly than doing the 24 Hours of Le Mans in the 'Premium' Mazda 787B only to pass by the 'Standard' cars, such as the Sauber C9, which honestly looked like cars ripped straight from the PS2 era

yewles13545d ago

"I'll take 500 well made cars over 1000 generic ps2 cars and 200 well made cars"

Considering the amount of "well made" cars GT6 has over 2 upcoming cames (50 for DC, 70 for PC), the prospect of removing standards has no bearing on many more high end models we get.

I just wish they'd take every standard car and make it a premium.

When I need a car for a class I will make sure it has a detailed interior because that is the only way I'll drive...of course I can always use the hood cam and the bumper cam I prefer the interior cam.

sinncross3545d ago

Im indifferent. Getting rid of the 'standard' cars does not equate to more premium cars being made in the game.

PD can ditch the standard cars but there is no correlation to that meaning that they will make another 100 premium cars (to the existing over 400 in GT6)

I am for a more streamlined experience (no standard cars) but I also accept that GT is a game made for car lovers (the large standard number is for them)

DarkOcelet3545d ago

Its gonna look beautiful , if driveclub is what the ps4 is capable of in the first year , i cant imagine how stunning this will look in the 2nd or 3rd year of the ps4 .

Muzikguy3545d ago

Or 4th, 5th, maybe 6th year. I doubt this is coming out anytime soon. I love the GT series, but PD can seem extremely slow at times. The article mentions about falling behind. That's because there's so much downtime between games. By that I mean actual releases in the numbered series, not prologue and stuff. I can't wait to play GT7 though! And I'm also down with no more standard cars. It's 2014, 8th gen... Premium is the new standard

Sevir3545d ago

GT6 had a much faster turn around than GT5... which was often delayed and reworked from GTHD Vision GT to GT5:Prologue to GT5.

PD really had a rough time with PS3 development. In fact... the Japanese Gaming development community suffered the most with PS3, So its good to see the learning curve be lowered.

Muzikguy3545d ago

I agree they had trouble with the PS3. The lack of memory and being split didn't help either. I hope for big things now!

Alicornium3545d ago (Edited 3545d ago )

It's about time they make the AI better. I'm guessing early 2016 release.

InTheZoneAC3545d ago (Edited 3545d ago )

I'm going to say Summer 2015 to Winter 2015, somewhere in there. That's a year-16 months from now...

The best PS5 exclusives 2024

With so many PS5 exclusives to choose from, it can be a little overwhelming to pick which one to play. This is especially true for a new PlayStation gamer who has yet to experience the wonder of PlayStation-exclusive storytelling. So, here's KnowTechie's take on the best PS5 exclusives in 2024 and beyond

PlayStation is killing it with the exclusives this year. Exclusive wise, what has xbox released this year?

VersusDMC12d ago

They won't complain about Microsoft not releasing games here but put all their effort into saying that only first party counts. Games like Rebirth and Grandblue Relink don't count. Games published by Sony like Helldivers 2, Stellar Blade and Rise of the Ronin don't count because Sony don't own the studios.

It's some narrative building so for when Hellblade 2 come out they can say, seemingly without shame, that Microsoft is actually releasing first party games this year. And claim victory.🙃

Chevalier12d ago

Weird 1st party games didn't matter when Xbox had so little, but, now they're important again? Guess Ark 3, Stalker 2 don't count any more?

KyRo12d ago (Edited 12d ago )

ARK 3 doesn't exist and it's just a timed exclusive. It's also a game that a majority of the ARK player base doesn't want as it's a massive deviation from what people like about the original game

Abnor_Mal12d ago (Edited 12d ago )

Honestly to me it doesn’t matter what they say, they are just finally getting a chance to say all the things PS fan(boy)s were saying to them for the past few years. Let them get that, they deserve a “win” for a change.

The new narrative is that suddenly first party games matter again when awhile ago they didn’t, but that was because they were struggling with the same three games with the occasional fourth or fifth. That games should be everywhere on all platforms since that’s whats happening to theirs. The consoles don’t matter just the ability to play anywhere. Whatever Xbox is doing Sony will soon follow.

They’re not moving the goalpost anymore, but rather just moving the whole damn stadium.

jwillj2k412d ago

Only a incel would care about who published what and who owns who.

If it’s not on the other consoles it’s an exclusive.

Killing what? Where are the 1st party games??
Stellar Blade and FF7 is what I’m seeing this year.. so shallow!!!!

andy8512d ago

Doesn't really matter as long as they're great games. Baffles me why people put an emphasis on 1st party. They're still games you can't play anywhere else this year

Cacabunga11d ago

Andy

PS brand is my favorite because of their stellar first party software.. currently I see absolutely nothing to go crazy for..

CS711d ago

Nonsense.

PS1 and PS2 was built on great third party exclusives like FF, MGS, GTA & Tekken.

Of course I love the games I’ve played from PS but I don’t believe we need to limit it to ‘exclusive’ to acknowledge that Xbox will be releasing some good games this year also. In that same vein, I believe that Xbox diehards shouldn’t limit their acknowledgment of good PS games to 1st party. There are plenty of good games to go around for everybody.

Tacoboto11d ago

This is a Playstation article about Playstation games and your comment is about Xbox. Can't you just celebrate what PS has without dragging this into console war BS?

ChasterMies11d ago

I don’t think Microsoft is releasing games exclusively on Xbox anymore. They have some timed exclusives that release on Xbox first.

Returnal, Astro Bot, and Ratchet made having it since day one worth it.

GT7 free updates and Spiderman 2 and others at 60fps have made this last year more than okay.

But yeah, it’s been dry lately. BG3 and third party have made great filler, but we ready for that SOCOM or Killzone announcement and some more 1st party goodness. Crossing fingers for Ghost of Tsushima 2 announcement this summer.

Didn’t know Helldivers was exclusive! Wtf is going on at Xbox that they can’t get these games, series s strikes again.

SonyStyled11d ago (Edited 11d ago )

Sony owns the Helldivers IP. The first was a PS3/Vita/PC game. It was never an Xbox game that they could ‘get’ a decade ago. I’m not sure what the upset is with Xbox here

CS711d ago

Lol, how do you ignore Rebirth one of the best games ever made?

anast11d ago

Looks like they are on par with the previous gens. Solid games all around. Interestingly enough, we can't say they released a bad game yet this gen. Unlike the Quiet Man dustup.

I actually do not mind if Marathon releases on multiple platforms . I just wish that Marathon has a dedicated single player campaign.

DaniMacYo11d ago

Helldivers 2 is exactly what gaming needed. I’m loving it.
