They could still do a fake beta like everyone else but what is the point of that

Interesting given there seems to be such a huge focus on the multiplayer component, a beta doesn't always ensure a smooth online mind you, DriveClub being a prime example. I haven't played the previous games online so don't know how they performed.

Don't ruin the moment

I prefer they release in 3 months less time than having a beta... will buy it on launch anyway.

Gran Turismo sold over 26m on PS3/P, how much did those other studios games sell??

How much did the other teams cost and how big were the budgets for their games in comparison to PD?

PD have 100 people team... and on 7 years gen selling 26M games I would say I'm pretty sure they are very well lucrative... The other studios were probably pushing less than 7M in the same time frame and I doubt it was with 25 people studio.

Besides all that, GT is a hallmark of Playstation while the other studios wasn't (and they kept the IDs in case they wanted to launch it in the future and the good talents were moved around, and some were unfortunatelly lost)

So... either this means it was never actually a beta in the first place (rather just a regular demo) or that the game will launch as a buggy mess.

Why are those the only possible options?

because every game that does not have a beta is a bugfest

And all developers are liars
