so that would be real !

gta28004429d ago

New Grand Turismo shoulda been a Ps4 launch title. Just my opinion.

feels like i should just drop this link here....

Gran Turismo 6 PS4 launch day release would seriously be the icing on the cake for Sony.

Though the cake alone seems good enough anyway :D

Peppino74429d ago

That would be a smart idea if they want to push consoles, but a bad idea if they just wanted GT6 software sales. More ps4 because of GT6 but less copies sold because of a smaller install base. Tough decision for SONY.

rainslacker4429d ago

I honestly don't see it happening. They had that other driving game they are releasing in the launch window, and it being a 1st party title I can't see Sony wanting to compete with themselves. We may see a prologue next year or something though. I'd prefer just a straight out release myself though.

Ilovetheps54429d ago

Peppino7, if that logic is true, Gran Turismo 3 shouldn't be the best selling game in the series. Gran Turismo 3 sold better than GT2 and GT4, both which were sold with a greatly established userbase. So, I don't think that argument is valid here.

knowyourstuff4429d ago (Edited 4429d ago )

Given how long Gran Turismo games take to come out, this could take years. The Polyphony Digital guys are perfectionists and program till their fingers fall off. They also have a tendency to add a ton of fluff and extra features no one cares about like photo mode. Knowing PD they'll likely take some art assets from the GT5 cars and pretty them up for GT6, along with perhaps some GT6 native cars that will look jaw dropping I'm sure.

FYI the reason GT3 sold so well as a launch title for the PS2 was because it was the greatest sim racing title for 4 years until GT4 came out. Plus a massive amount of GT3 copies were sold at 20 bucks, and the game was shown off at a ton of car shows, which didn't hurt sales either. If the same is done with GT6 Sony will sell a TON of consoles next gen, but it would have to be done by 2014 to be as effective as possible.

TemplarDante4429d ago

GT Planet took down the article.
100% legit: confirmed

darthv724429d ago

why risk the possibility of low sales of GT6 on the PS3 when it can be the system seller for the PS4.

I am basing my statement on the trend of GT games in a given platform generation.

GT1 outsold GT2 on the PS1
GT3 outsold GT4 on the PS2
GT5 is the only GT on the PS3

KwietStorm_BLM4429d ago

I really don't think it should be rushed just to be a launch title. We all know GT will be on PS4. Releasing it in a state where it left a lot on the table would be worse than not releasing it at all in a specific time frame.

InTheZoneAC4429d ago

not a single person on this earth who plays gran turismo calls it GRAND turismo

kingfetish174429d ago

It'll most likely be titled Gran Turismo(Insert Name Here) instead of titled with a '6'.

They did it with the next Killzone & Infamous. Wouldn't be surprised if it's done to the new GT too.

Ddouble4429d ago

It would kill Drive Club if it was a launch title.

They should let Drive CLub have it's time to shine then release GT6 after but not with massive delays like GT5.

_-EDMIX-_4429d ago

@darthv72. LOL! um....you seem to be disregarding a major factor. Its most likely that GT2, GT4 etc made more money for Sony then GT1 and GT3 JUST based on its built on engine that was already made.

So....make GT6, while making a GT6 engine, is better then making GT6 on an existing engine with a larger install base?

Most gamers seem to think like children. ie more salez, more moneyz. Please stop and think about it in terms of an actual business. 80 million PS3's and a GT6 without the cost of an engine now factored, makes sense then making a PS4 version that now has a less install base and they have to factor in the cost of the engine.

The game will be on PS3. Its an easy business move. I see no reason to make this on PS4. Its even funnier just based on how long PD makes a damn launch GT, yet you guys think there going to launch with one? LMFAO!

um...no. Every PS has had 2 GT's, I see no reason to not do this. PS4 has great launch games, there is no need for a GT on PS4 at this moment. Its time will come, GT6 will be a great GT game on PS3.

MikeMyers4429d ago (Edited 4429d ago )

As much as I would love GT6 to be a launch title I'm not sure that would be a good business move. One reason is they already announced Drive Club for the PS4 as a launch game. The other reason is the GT franchise is probably their biggest IP. The people who are going to buy a PS4 at launch are likely the ones who bought a PS3 at launch. The hardcore and most loyal customer. So they already have those sales and putting GT6 at a later date would help sell the system to those who might wait a bit.

Of course another way to look at it is Sony not being able to meet demand. If they do stack the launch with a game of this caliber it could really carry momentum for quite some time. That's probably one of the issues facing the Wii U right now, there really isn't a huge title for it right now. Maybe if they had that Zelda game available things might be different.

gta28004429d ago (Edited 4429d ago )

@IntheZone

Oh shit, I just barely realized I called it Grand instead of Gran. Too late to edit now lmao.

Dee_914429d ago

only thing confirmed here is that you people care more about sales than games.
Only reason I would prefer it be a ps4 title would be because of the limitations of the ps3.But it was already being developed for the ps3, so like I said before it wouldnt truly be a next gen racer ( like drive club) it would just be a ps3 game on the ps4.And as a result there would be a backlash from the uneducated claiming PD are bad devs using last gen engines .. or something along those lines..
Anyway the original article on gtplanet didnt say this was a PS4 title.The guy working there who took the pics and uploaded them said "taking pics for gt ps4".. So if you believe that a guy that works at a car shop taking pictures he wasnt suppose to be taking holds any merit than your in for a suprise. The reson it was taken down was because he wasnt suppose to take pictures.... not because someone said its a ps4 title.

andibandit4429d ago

@irepbtown

What cake? so far we've mostly seen 3-4 iteration of existing franchises and hardly any new exiting IP's.

SolidStoner4429d ago

below is the text taken down by everyone!!! ;) but they cant take down us! the power of people!!! :D

"The Polyphony Digital team can be seen collecting data in photographs posted yesterday on L.M. Gianetti’s Facebook page. Curiously, the gallery has been titled “SCANSIONE PER GRAN TURISMO PS4″, which translates to “Scanning for Gran Turismo PS4″."

DeadlyFire4429d ago

I expect it to release on PS3/PS4 in 2014/2015.

Gta2800 I see why you say that I want a new GT game but all these game X should be release day and X game same thing can't and would be dumb of Sony to do so..

They need all these huge name games to come steady and a few months apart so they always have the so called AAA games coming and not goings months with no games of big name ...

But then again I want uncharted day one lol

gta28004429d ago (Edited 4429d ago )

I hear ya. Makes sense to spread em all out. I only said that because Gran Turismo is a flagship title that can push consoles so it seems it would make sense to make it a launch title.

Hey, maybe Uncharted will be announced this E3 as a launch title...you never know *Fingers crossed* lol.

torchic4429d ago

if it were up to n4g folk, all 1st and 2nd party exclusives currently in development (or even those not in development but will be eventually at some point) for PS4 would be launch titles and available on Vita.

thank you for common sense BrunoM.

xtremeimport4429d ago

Love gran turismo.
But i think they need to add better auto specific to each car and a bit deeper customization options.

The customization keeps players around longer in my opinion. Plus, the whole premium and standard car should be a thing of the past since, it'll be a lot easier to upgrade the visuals of the Pre-cars from Gt5 than it was to upgrade the gt4 cars. Huge library is nice, but make them all HD and add something new!

showtimefolks4429d ago

if sony can launch GT6 at launch or soon after launch for PS4 that would be epic, and that would be a huge systems seller

i just hope this time there won't be 1000 cars, just give us 400-500 great looking/driving cars and a lot better online structure. The SIM driving aspect of GT is perfect but some of the features in Forza online community are better so i hope PD pays attention to everything and makes an excellent games

_-EDMIX-_4429d ago

I know right, and it all just took them 3 years to make the engine and game.

(do you guys really read or research what you post?)

steve30x4429d ago

I've played almost every Forza game and I still go bcack to Gran Turismo. The only Forza game I didnt play was Forza Horizon.

falcon794429d ago

Oh just give me Project CARS wiiu going off NFS U,the wiiu version will be the pc version basically but with these controls,and that game Project CARS has achieved realism end of.

TheLyonKing4430d ago

They said it was coming on ps3 no? Fake I reckon

PygmelionHunter4429d ago

And why is that? I don't think Sony would risk releasing a game that require as many resources on a console that will have nothing but a fraction of the established market share of the already available and cheaper PS3. Besides, they wouldn't advertise a game like Drive Club or whatever it's called on PS4 just to have it overshadowed by Gran Turismo.

It's just a bad business decision from wherever I see it, and let's keep it real, Sony runs a business, I know everyone would prefer to have this on the PS4, but I just don't see it happening.

_-EDMIX-_4429d ago

@PygmelionHunter- Slow down, someone is using logic, business understanding and history to prove his point.......ON N4G!?!!!

Factor in the first GT on PS systems cost more based on the engine, so why would Sony waste more money for an already packed launch?

Mind you, if it takes PD 5 years to make an engine and game, it would mean a GT is STILL 2 years off, 2015 at best. So....it wouldn't happen either way.

It makes senes to have PD's game development team make GT6, while GT's engine team make GT PS4's engine.

Mind you the 3 years it would had took is IF ONLY PS4 DEV KITS EXISTED IN 2010! Its a LONG stretch to say its going to be on PS4.

I'm pretty sure some at Sony already outed it was being worked on for PS3.

alousow4430d ago

E3 is coming soon. wait until then

JoGam4429d ago (Edited 4429d ago )

Agreed.

@ GynGa, Don't be. N4G is filled with rumors and speculations. Just wait till E3 or until Sony announce it.

MariaHelFutura4429d ago

Don't be. There is ZERO chance they release on PS3 and not PS4, I don't care what they say. No game moves systems worldwide like Gran Turismo.

deafdani4429d ago

"No game moves systems worldwide like Gran Turismo."

I guess you mean specifically on Sony consoles.

Man-E-Faces4429d ago

As long as GT6 releases a year/half or two after DriveClub it's okay by me. As much as I want the next GT entry I also don't feel it's fair to eclipse what Evolution studios is bringing with DriveClub going by their PS4 presentation they have a lot of passion/heart going into this potential franchise, they certainly deserve another chance given the circumstances that hurt them during Motorstorm Apocalypse's release and honestly the whole Motorstorm series has not got the credit it deserves, I honestly thought Sony was going to close down Evolution studios after Apocalypse's and that Vita/PSN RC game, it surprised me and made my day to see them on stage and that Sony has given them another chance. I just really want Evolution studios to have their time to shine and thrive but a GT releasing around the same time with all the hype that comes with a new GT entry will potentially overshadow Evolution's effort.

DivineAssault 4430d ago (Edited 4430d ago )

oh $hyyyt! Sony is gonna drop bombs @ this upcoming E3 & the nx.. Maybe a dual gen release? who knows but if it was taken down, im sure it had some truth to it.. Sony isnt BSN anymore.. Theyre doing what they do best which is releasing AAA exclusive software.. IMHO, PS4 will be just like PS2 was in its day, undisputed champion of home game consoles.. nx box & wii u will duke it out for casuals, kids, with sprinkles of core games, multiplats, & exclusives..

lol, tru, tru at youngsters not knowing

I would like the game to be released on both systems however improbable that is. That would be different

Well at least Nintendo doesn't lie to gamers and say it is this super hardcore mega bloody gaming console like Microsoft does.

Plus Microsoft's Next Money Pit is going to be retarded. Still going to be $60 a year to play online. No thanks.

Sony better be Champion again! When the PS3 was first released it damn near broke my heart because of how bad it was, here is hoping for an awesome release.

5 Of 8 Japanese AAA Game Stocks Just Hit All-Time Highs

Dr. Serkan Toto says: While things do not look great for many studios in the West, things are very different in Japan – and I was shocked how little people in the industry still know and understand about the third biggest gaming market in the world (which is a probably a positive for a Japan game industry consultant like myself).

Honestly, it looks about the same if we are measuring a company's success on their all time high stock price. It has nothing to do with the sentiments some in the industry have.

Objectively the two biggest problems are cost cutting and consolidation.

This lip sync thing sounds pretty awesome. But one cannot shake the feeling, this is going to be combined with AI, and….. sigh

Lightning7733d ago

AI in this use is no big deal imo and result in better animation for character models.

Mr_cheese32d ago

If implemented correctly, AI is a great addition. For me, the problem with AI starts when companies like Activision use it to pump out art work, cosmetics etc to cut corners when they make so much money already.
