Forums - Sony Discussion - Why does Gran Turismo 5 have a prologue?

Batman...WTF? on 18 April 2009

I'm just curious. I haven't  played them, as I don't own a PS3 or any of the games on my PS2. Is there some story that I am not aware of? It's just a racing simulator, right?

thats an overstatement.

i think the reason is a combo of arrogance, and cashing in before its ready

im a maniac for modern warfare, but i wont buy a prologue of modern warfare 2 . . .

 

 

 



Last year's game of the year turned out to be Silent Hill : Shattered Memories (online GOTY was COD 6).  This year's GOTY leader to me is Heavy Rain.

Simply because Sony and PD know they can release what is essentially a large demo and sell 3 million of them.

1. Because its the best racing simulator.
2. Probaly to rack up some extre cash to cover huge development costs.

5 THINGS I'd like to see before i knock out:

a. a AAA 3D sonic title

b. a nintendo developed game that has a "M rating"

c. redesgined PS controller

d. SEGA back in the console business

e. M$ out of the OS business

The game has been in development for a long time, I'm guessing it helps pay for expenses as well as satisfying people until the real game comes out.

the prologue probably brought in 60 - 90 million for Sony. Thats why.
