Vaporware... I've come to accept that it's not coming.

 

Yeah ... I would agree if it would be 3rd party , but seeing that its a 1st party game Im still holding my final judgement :)

I know this article that says that Gran Turismo 5's development impacted Gran Turismo 4 mobile's development, and that it is unlikely to see Gran Turismo 4 in 2008.

Well, if Sony decides to launch a PSP 2 somewhere in the next 2 years I wouldn't be surprised if the game will be moved towards the next gen portable to have a killer app at launch.

No good racers?

I suggest Wipeout Pure or the newer Wipeout Pulse, and Burnout - I own both and they are very fun - There is also Midnight Club and Need for Speed games if you like those kind, but I honestly don't know how good they actually are.

 

Never been a fan of Wipeout myself, and although I do have a lot of fun with Burnout, I should have said there are no good racing sims on the PSP...or even somewhat realistic racers (ie licensed cars/racing series).

 

Let me just say... if you are looking for racing game on handheld, PSP is the only way to go.

For now, the iPhone will give it a run for its money I think. Here are some cool videos of the possibilities.

This last one is just to show you that there is real support from this, from real game companies.

None of those videos are games worth playing (some are just tech demos). It's just showing what could be done. The App store has not been released yet, so no official games from big name game developers has yet been released.

Sega and EA are on board to make games, so I think there will be some good racers in the future for it (along with hundreds of other games).

It might even be my platform of choice for Spore. That seems like the kind of game I would want to play on the couch while watching TV.

You are joking right ? Compared to Burnout Dominator they all look outdated graphically :P And we all know that GT4 Mobile will kick ass graphically if it will be released :D
