Forums - Sony - GT5 japan release, news.

Good news ,even if it is only the Prologue game its the next big game for the PS3 in Japan (if we dont count the likes of Record of Agarest War and Bladestorm wich are a lot more low profile ) and should help the machine there ,probably even more than Hot Shots Golf 5 .

Is the car scene still as big any more? What with all the police crack downs on modified cars and street racing in Japan? It's not like it was back when the older games were released.

No doubt this games gonna be huge. People no longer can do it on the streets so they now do it on their PS3 when available!

Million seller in Japan incoming (Prologue even).



Street racing is plenty alive, just less idiot ricers in mommies civic.

Tuning world in japan is as big as ever, Japan car makers cancled their agreement to limit cars to 280hp. Theres been a revival in sports cars/muscle cars in the last few years.
