Forums - Sony Discussion - Gran Turismo 6 on PS3, confirmed by an Italian dealer

Why? Because PS4 will have Drive club or whatever its called. Its basically the same thing.


No.

 

Urgh, I still don't want to believe. But I suppose this is a nice way to eat up the PS4 launch costs.

i dont get sony if they are really announcing this for the ps3. i mean wtf? you know sony there is something called the PS4 and its coming out later this year


Polyphony Digital hasn't had PS4 dev kits long enough to make a big game like this. We'll be lucky to get a port. I'd prefer they keep it as a PS3 exclusive though, make people wait for GT on PS4.

Ok either it means Sony is still deluded and we can count for another plethora of fuck ups a'la PS3 launch style or they are really desperate for money ASAP and GT6 will be on PS3 for the quick and easy buck.

PS. I really feel sad for the guys at Evolution Studios if this is true

and PS#2. The cover looks totally awesome!!!

What's so fucked up about supporting the PS3? You want Sony to abandon the PS3 like that other company did for their console?

There will be millions of more PS3s sold over the next few years. The kind of people who will buy a $250 PS3 won't even consider a $500 PS4. So i this case, I say Gran Turismo 6 release PS3 is the best thing Sony can do. Besides, these PS3 owners will end up upgrading to PS4 in the future to play the GT 7.

Yeah, true. This way they don't have to make very many PS4s.



How does this retailer listing confirm anything? I think the first listings hold more weight but whatever.

Anyway this is a smart move for Sony. PS3 will have one of its best years yet and absolutely SLAUGHTER all the other systems. Then when PS4 has a slow launch Sony can say "PS4 is only one system in the playstation family and it has preformed to expectations. It allowed PlayStation as a whole to take up 60% of this years home console sales leaving only 40% to be shared by the competition."

Guys... PD will never do a GT game for PS3 in less than two or three years... face it.

No, I don't want Sony to cut the PS3 support.

What I want is a wise long-term strategy from SCE and in my opinion releasing the pretty much unarguably biggest system seller that SCE has, on a old platform when the next gen will just be out of the gate is as far from "the best thing Sony can do" as it can get in that mather.

To take it further, we all know how much time it takes Polyphony to develop a game. We may not see GT7 on PS4 until 2015-2016, it looks like the PS3/GT5 debacle again and there is also PS Vita which would also benefit from a Gran Turismo title. But SCE and PD decides to put GT6 on the least viable platform.

Next thing is - I don't really think that a GT6 on PS3 would be a revolution. Of course they can polish the graphics, better envinronments, more or all premium cars - nothing groundbreaking will be found there, while on PS4 we could count for a quantum leap. Only good reason like I said is quick and safe profit from the game.



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

Well, I'm not complaining as long as they give me GT on PS4 before 2016...



That's a mistake by Sony is its true cause it will just hurt Driveclub's sales.
