Um hello. They claimed that with GT5. And it got delayed by 3 years buddy. 

They have to build an entire new engine. It took Polyphony 2 years just to build the enine for PS3 GT. Its damage control nothing more to the community not to buy Forza 5. 

The only way for Polyphony to do it on a new system 2 years after GT6 is use the same engine and gimp on cars. So 2 years GT7 uses GT6 engine with PS2 models, PS3 models and say 50 PS4 models?

I would bet my entire lifetime earnings GT7 will not come before 2017.

I'll take that bet. It's common knowledge Sony had Polyphony Digital working on 3 or so extra projects during GT5 development which increased the development time for the game. On top of which GT6 has the benefit of being the second on the Ps3. GT7 has probablly been being worked on by a part of the team since GT5 release with most of the team now shifiting focus on GT7. I wouldn't be surprised if we saw a GT7:P next year (or March 2015)... and hey, why not? GT5:P probably funded the entire GT5 project and some of GT6. And then GT7 full game being released no later than March 2016.


Wait a second. 

People complain here and every forum about not releasing a product till its ready. Driveclub, Watchdogs etc. 

Gran Turismo 5 and 6 have less than half of the content as a Ps3 modeled game. The rest is a Ps2 HD game. Is that acceptable? Is that wat you expect of GT7? From the finish of GT4 to the release of GT6 is 8 years and 8 months. Thats nearly 4 years and 6 months for eac GT5 and GT6 development time. And thats for more than half of the content as last generation models in HD and Tracks. 

Now Polyphony have to build a new engine, redo all the PS2 modeled stuff to at least PS3 level or risk GT getting 1's and 2's from reviewers and thats without even deciding what cars and tracks to make into PS4 models. 

 

Turn 10 played with 1 mill poly model cars in Autovista Forza 4. These were to see how cars would look and feel in next gen. Its taken Turn 10 with more employees than Polyhony 3 years to build the Xbox One assests for Forza 5. They chose not to include 360 assests to cheapen the look of the game. Just to say they have more content. 3 years to develop 200 Xbox One grade cars and 14 Xbox One grade tracks. The entire engine is a brand new Xbox One engine. 

So GT7 next year or 2015 ? Only if they have PS2 models, PS3 models and 50 - 100 PS4 models and maybe 5-6 PS4 modeled tracks. 

Actually Polyphony could bring out GT7 Prologue Xmas 2015 and GT7 out in 2017 Xmas. Tat would make GT7 Prologue 50 Premium cars and 5 tracks. Then GT7 release 2017 with 200 PS4 premium cars etc.

Polyphonys problem is they  are now in PS4 generation with there last game still containing PS2 assests. 2 gens behind. It is gonna bite them in the arse this gen.
