Gran Turismo 6

[mini_nick]

I didn't expect any news on this so soon, but seems an event is being held at Silverstone on Wednesday to announce some sort of release on the future of Gran Turismo. Could be interesting!

My guess is that it'll be a launch title for the PS5

No chance will gt6 launch with ps4, we'll get ridge racer or something if we're lucky.

I didn't say PS4

 

[Silent_Scone]

I think it makes zero sense to make this a PS3 exclusive at this stage.

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Lol!

 

[DannyR]

Hopefully the event is to record actual car noises for the next game.

And I didn't read your post properly lol

+ f**king 1.

The last gran turismo was complete s**t, its that bad i doubt ill even buy this one until I have at least played it

 

[JJS1979]

Have heard that the silverstone event is a anniversary event of GT1 and a recording session for GT6... From an industry insider to do with SCEE.

I do hope they improve the engine sounds for the next game! Also better car physics would be nice, not holding out for a miracle though!

 

[Munson]

The last game was easily the worst driving game I've ever played. Looked pretty but utterly joyless in every single way.

This.

The steering physics and sounds were awful. I still got addicted though haha.

 

[Shifty.]

Sounds have been actual recordings on the last two games at least iirc, gotta you tube vids or summat, I'm sure I unlocked a making of type video in the game at some point or on the gttv part.

 

[Joe#]

I wonder how many time they change the release date again..

 

[Gally]

God that last one was embarrassing. 5 years in the making? Felt like I had gone back in time 5 years!

 

[Baggaley90]

GT4 was so much better than 5. I recon it will be multiplatform. PS3 and PS4. Still got a lot of work to make it worthwhile. I still play GT5 with a few mates online but most of the time it just annoys me.

 

[SharkyUK]

I recon it will be multiplatform. PS3 and PS4.

I doubt that very much, mate. The hardware setup/architecture are miles apart and it would effectively be two different games sharing the same name and content. And probably doubling the budget as well.

GT1... Awesome
GT2 ...Awesome
GT3 ...Awesome
GT4... Awesome
GT5... Meh

Will be on PS3 and will be released later this year, although it probably won't be released here till next year

I think the car sounds have been a mix of authentic and synthetic. For example, a stock R34 Skyline seems to sound pretty similar in the game as it does in real life, but the Sauber C9 sounds are way off the mark!

Is that not just GT5

 

[McGherkin]

The last game was easily the worst driving game I've ever played. Looked pretty but utterly joyless in every single way.

Try playing Test Drive Unlimited 2. Hairdressers, plastic surgery and fashion shopping in a racing game? WTF. And don't even mention the physics. Makes GT5 look good.

I may keep an eye on this, but physics wise it doesn't press my buttons, and graphics wise it's not as good as I'd like either, those textured leaves on the ground are comical.

 

[Munson]

I agree. Although TDU isn't really claiming to be a proper driving simulator. Ironically, at least TDU is actually fun to play, unlike the irritating snore-fest of GT5.

 

[Matt Cup]

Probably not the most exciting of news, but the GT6 demo/GT Academy is currently out to download. Doesn't seem to be any improvement over the last effort imo.

 

[Gavin.]

^ I thought that, played the full demo and deleted it.

 

[Matt Cup]

Me too, the races were too short and the fields too small, and that time trial was boring as hell, but then I'm not into driving over and over to knock tenths of a second off my laps.

 

[Jonnio]

I spent a couple hours on the demo, liking the new physics and graphics. If the promises they've made materialise properly then it should be a big improvement over 5.

Goodwood has been confirmed as a track too.

 

[ukaskew]

They had the Goodwood hill course running on demo pods at the FoS, only had a brief play but the handling felt far more 'agreeable' to me than previous GT games, dare I say slightly leaning towards Forza, which should mean the slower stuff is more enjoyable to drive.

Same. s**t game. Graphics were crappy and the car handling felt awful.

I used to be a massive Gran Turismo fan in the PS1 and PS2 days - but since playing racers like codemasters' F1 & Grid,the actual racing in GT really bores me - theres absolutely no action in the races - i dont get the feeling like in F1 where youre battling for a finishing position or points. GT6 could be the first one i dont buy. In fact i dont think i will be...unless somehow they make the whole racing experience a lot more tense & exciting. The main appeal of GT5 for me was the photo mode.

I hated how they got rid of little things like your all time best lap time for that track,it gave you something to aim to beat - not it just resets when you go back to the same track. Surely these details are the most important thing about racing games?

 

[Rubicon_]

I feel sorry for them competing with forza, it's just never going to happen.
