Wat. GTHD has been available as a free download on the PlayStation Store since the ps3's launch. It was basically GT4 with a new GUI and higher poly cars. At E307 they announced GT5: Prologue (and by extension GT5), which launched only five months later in December in Japan. They didn't really start heavy development on GT5 until late 2006, after they finished up Tourist Trophy for ps2, and during the development of TT, GTHD, and GT5 they were simultaneously developing GT PSP, which only dropped a few months ago. They haven't been that bad. They've actually had quite a lot on their plate, while seemingly managing to release not one but two games with ~1000 cars each within a year of each other (assuming GT5 makes it out this year, which is basically a given at this point). |
well, it was my understanding that GTHD was the original GT5 and that it had a sampler released in Japan. According to Wiki "This game was intended to be a sneak preview, in the likes of Gran Turismo Concept, preceding the release of a full version title but the Gran Turismo HD project was canceled and replaced by Gran Turismo 5 Prologue."
Either way, 4 E3's

It's not like I'm hurting for games, it was just that I got a PS3, saw the demo disc (included) thought to myself that I like a good racer every now and then, and waited, and waited. The problem, is too many other good games are getting announced and being released quickly, and I don't have time for all of them, and GT5 has already been replaced. Who knows, maybe my mind will change by the time it gets released. I'm sure it will be a great game.
