No? It’s only the non-game event of the year, Gran Turismo 5.

Yes, the GT5 European has also been delayed, we are sorry to say. We expect to confirm a new release date before the end of the month.

We can confirm that Gran Turismo 5 will not be available this November 2nd, but the game’s release will be coming this holiday season.
We sincerely apologize to GT fans for the delay, however, creator Kazunori Yamauchi and the team at Polyphony Digital want to make certain they are creating the perfect racing experience, and we are confident that this ambitious game will exceed expectations when it launches.
We’ll have more information for you in the near future.

The comments are kind of incandescent in places. This is the best one:

And here was me wondering if it was going to be a properly delayed game like Duke Nukem Forever ;)

Nah, wanna know what popped into my head when I read this?

Elite 3

I know it's not even been announced, but there is no other potentially forthcoming title in my mind :)

They're probably holding off to cash in on Christmas. I would if I was them.

I suspect that many games will be brought forward for the same reasons, even if they are not ready.

Gran Turizzzzzzz

I can't even finish the game title without nodding off. That used to be a good game back on the Playstation.

What he said. I'm sure I played a demo of this about two years ago. What the [LIFTED] are they up to? Makes no odds to me, I lost interest after the second one.

2nd one was the best. The amount of cars was mental. I still remember little things like winning the special CRX Del Sol and Toyota Chaser. I always missed being able to add the race spec/look to your cars in newer versions of the game too. For me GT2 played on a Dreamcast with Bleem and a VGA connection was gaming heaven at the time.

Gran Turismo 5 DLC to offer motorbikes?

Polyphony Digital has created Gran Turismo 5 with motorbikes in mind - and although they won't be playable in the final game, the studio is keen on the idea of introducing a two-wheeled element down the line.

The long-awaited racer, which has been delayed into later this year, contains over 800 cars - 200 of which respond to face-tracking using the PS Eye.

But the game doesn't contain any motorbikes - for now.

"The environment we have right now allows us to drive motorcycles, but we need to get Gran Turismo 5 done first," Polyphony boss Kazunori Yamauchi told the latest issue of PSM3. "Once that's out of the way, if there's a strong demand for bikes, that's something we'd consider."

Late last year, it looked as though bikes could still make the main game - but it appears that dream is now over. Roll on the DLC, we say - we just dread to think how long it might take.

Just give me the freaking game already!

Kazunori: "The [GT5] Discs Are Being Stamped As We Speak"
We just asked Kazunori Yamauchi, the father of Gran Turismo, in an interview here at SEMA, the question on everyone's minds — when will GT5 finally be released? His response: "The discs are being stamped as we speak."

The picture above is Kazunori making a disc-stamping motion with his hands as he answered our query on the ever-shifting release date. We did talk about a number of different topics other than the release — and we'll have more coming shortly — but for the moment, we thought we'd at least bring you that response.
