If the head producer said the game is ready to release then GT5 is not far from release.

the same head producer was always saying that GT is the best sim and yet he wants to implement Rubber Bend Effect straight from arcade games like Outrun so.... not to mention GT Portable situation.

Errr... what? Would you please explain, I don't quite understand this.

in episode 32 of ISR
they mentioned that during interview with Yamauchi he mentioned that they will add Rubber Bend Effect to the game: if you will be driving first and there will be 2 second difference(at least in GT5) between you and second place, your car will automatically slow down and 2nd players car will drive faster - kinda ridiculous in a racing sim. Yamauchi also said that ferraris won't have damage system which kinda confirmed damage in GT5, but it's still kinda weird if some cars would have damage and some would not.

IIRC the rubber band effect was removed on one of the Prologue updates quite a while ago.  Anyhow, if this is left as an option in the final GT5 it's all fine isn't it?  That won't make it less of a sim, in the same way the rewind option on FM3 will not make it less of a sim provided we are given the option to block it.  Hope you understand this better now.
