No. It was working in ideas for GT5... most of them implemented and tested in GT5:P or the Demo for new professional driving physics... ideas used/tested in others games.

They not begin to working/developing GT5 six year ago... just three-four years ago.

And GT5:P and the Demo were part of the development for GT5 itself.

I thought this was known by everyone.

So Turn 10 was working in Forza 4 since 2007/2008... ohhh no since Forza 1 and GT5 since Gran Turismo original .

No ethomaz. Even though the Forza 4 engine is based on the Forza 1 engine, it's not as if Forza 1 was a product of the Forza 4 development. If it were, all the cars, tracks, and features in Forza 1 would have been retained.

GT5 was in development 6 years ago (5 years before release), when PD announced they were developing GT5, and that they would completly rebuild the engine for GT5, throwing away all the data collected between GT1-4 (all cars were re-analyzed). GT5P was a product developed while making GT5, in order to satisfy the fan during the long wait to GT5. Every track and car from GT5P was retained, and well yea.

Even the definition of prologue affirms that it's the introduction to GT5. IMO it was a mass audience test of GT5's engine.

GT4P was released only a month before GT4, do you really think GT4 was entirely developed in 1 month? You're using this same logic for GT5.
