syafeerul: Gran Turismo 5

Officially Official: Gran Turismo 5 on sale Nov. 24 in U.S.

Gran Turismo 5 fans, it’s time to rejoice! On the U.S. Playstation blog, the manger of the public relations team has posted a North American on sale date of Wednesday, November 24. Fingers crossed that this doesn’t get pushed back yet again! We have a feeling this date is going to stick, though, because Kazunori Yamauchi, the President of Polyphony Digital Inc. has added this statement:

“Gran Turismo 5 is an ambitious project, with challenges and complexities which have made it our version of the Apollo Space Program! When we created the original Gran Turismo back in 1997, we wanted to set a completely new precedent for the racing genre.

With the technological leap onto PlayStation 3, our objective with Gran Turismo 5 was to create another great revolution which would not only satisfy our own high expectations, but would meet or even exceed the anticipation of the fans.

Satisfying the loyal Gran Turismo followers is at the heart of all of our efforts, which is why it was such a difficult decision to delay the release of the game, and one which we did not take lightly.

I can only apologize to everyone for making you wait so long, and I hope that when you try out the wealth of driving experiences available in Gran Turismo 5, you will not be disappointed.”

He wasn’t kidding when he says GT5 offers a “wealth of driving experiences.” Even though it’s still two weeks away, we can’t decide if we want to hit the WRC courses or the street courses first. Regardless, our Thanksgiving celebrations just got rearranged. Top tip, Martin!

its a late announcement yet i still want to post this. hm.. its out there already. here in malaysia the launch date was Dec. 3rd. this was the main purpose of me buying the PS3. i guess now is the time. but still after two weeks the game launched, i have not made the purchase yet. waiting for the best price. still considering either to grab the R1 collector’s edition with the keychain fob, and the GTR or the R3 limited edition with sls amg or just get the normal edition which should cost much cheaper. still thinking. perhaps a month would be nice before i decide on anything. soon enough.. anyone wanna give me this as a gift? i’ll act surprise i promise.. 🙂
