did they say anything about a release date in europe ?

Europe and Japan's offical website just says November 2010. So it looks like its up to Sony to decide when in November.

as predicted GT5 = dissapointment and enchanced GT4 port. they've been making this game for almost 7 years now and still just ported 80% of the cars and most of the tracks from GT4? lol. only 200 cars have interiors? no demage(scratches on paint is no demage), and if E3 showing is new physics engine presentation then they should go back to drawing board after what i saw on gamespots sony booth tour. and lulz at 2.5 year for making a single track - iRacing.com is using superior technology to scan tracks and make cars and they still with so small team make them in few months and those tracks are made exactly like real life ones to the point of insanity like having bumps on tracks in the exact same spot like in real life track.

i will gladly go back to Race Pro the one and only racing simulator on consoles while anticipating GTR3 console release.

Lol someone sounds bitter

no, someone expected something good after all this years of waiting and someone expected that it would trully be a step up from past arcadesim GT games. i was planning to get ps3 so my racing setup would be complete(i even got Fanatec Turbo S wheel for 430euros cause it supports pc and both hd consoles). GT Academy demo i tested wasn't great but i hoped they would improve and what i saw and read is dissapointing. guess i will have money for new Buttkicker Gamer 2. 

No interior view for standard cars = no cockpit view? If so, FAIL.

Serious_frusting, after Forza 3 dissapointment(great arcade game for a pad not so great for a wheel) i hoped i would get my car game/simulator fix with GT5 cause i was getting tired of Forza 2(which is still the best car game/simulator ever released). i have 1200$ racing rig(if we add pc, 360, monitor and sound system then about 3000$) just for sims since that's pretty much all i play(except few action and Koei games). 

guess i will wait for Test Drive Unlimited 2 and i that 360 offroad game i saw on gametrailers if it will be good.

Personally I'd want like 500 full modeled cars intead of 800 bland ones and 200 good models, but anything else seems alright. I don't understand the hating of some, it's still more than any other racing game offered.

um eurogamer is touting it to be one of if not the best racing experience they have had.. and you are spinning it around towarsd negativity, while that article barely mentions anything negative.. if anything negative at all..

Another definitive feature : Head Tracking using the PS-Eye
