Looks like we are going to have to wait a while longer then... bloody delays!

I wonder why it only says UK? If it's out elsewhere first I may have to import again.

Looks like an import from the U.S will becoming my way

Why so long since they got prologue out?

Surly when they got the game mechanics, controls done it only a matter of adding more tracks and cars with minor adjustments?

Or is it just a way to fleece more money out of fans

What a load of ****, the PS3 has been in development for how long now and GT is a big seller for the PS brand and its still not out, when it comes out it best be the best racer ever made and have zero bugs.

Looks like it will be 2009 before I buy a PS3.

Heh "only"

It's not exactly a 5 minute job adding cars and tracks to the level of detail that they want. Hopefully the extra development time will allow them to produce something amazing.

Though saying that I wouldn't be surprised if it appeared at christmas in Japan similar to prologue.

It's more surprising that people are surprised at a GT game being delayed

So, I'll have to wait a little while longer before getting to play a racing game that bills itself as being something that it isn't. Hey ho. Life goes on.

Had this been any other racing game franchise I might have been tiny bit more upset. But given Gran Turismo's long history of disappointing me in the realism stakes....

WHY IS THIS A SURPRISE I ALWAYS EXPECTED MARCH-APRIL 09. GT ALWAYS IS DEC IN JAPAN ONLY

This isnt a delay neither just a retailler telling what quite frankly is the truth but doing it to promote GT5P
It seems many of you wernt aware that their wasnt a chance of seeing the full game outside of Japan this year.

On the Plus side it looks like GT5P (due 28th March) for UK will be getting some updates.
Conflicting details have been released but car tunning and photomode seem like two possibilities with possibly more cars over da JAP release many of us have already played.

Forza 3 will be on the horizon by then.

Didnt know it had been announced.

I'm really not surprised by this at all. We don't even have prologue yet and we're creeping up on March.

Jimbeam3678 · 24 Feb 2008 at 11:29

I know i'm itching to get hold of a english language version

The UK is getting release of GT5P before the USA, thats something. So if you after an English translation version you wont have to import.

Regards the delay, i believe if no release date is given then i dont see how its delayed. Besides theirs enough gameplay in GT5P and the online aspect as well to out do many full release racing games. People should "quit their jibber jabber" and enjoy this fantastic release. Ive completed the JAP release and have the UK one on PRE -ORDER

I think its going to be the same for me. I was looking into getting one for Prologue then only having to wait a little bit longer for the full game. Its a shame we have to wait so long to get it now, but i suppose the longer we give them to make it the less bugs/imperfections etc we will get.

my feelings exactly. It's frustrating when a game you are looking forward to takes an age to come out but I would rather wait than play a rushed out version.

Yea its always best to wait, i still got my Xbox 360 to play. I was always a huge fan of the ps2, i never owned an original Xbox. I was a massive fan of Metal gear Solid and Gran Turismo series. So thats the only reason i want a PS3.
