I mean why is it that every mf racing game in the market has Porsches in and THE best racing franchise hasnt. Why?

Who is responsible for that? Polyphony, Sony or is it Porsche?

Kazunori said there were issues with the licencing...Why arent they working to sort them out since there is no exclusivity matter at all.

This is a big fail and I dont know who to blame.

Still GT5 will be huge but I can only imagine what it could be with all those turbos and gt3s and gt2s and...

Big shame...

EA games owns the Porsche license (expires later this year), Microsoft had to ask EA games to license Porsche to appear in Forza 3, no idea why EA let Turn10 have them for Forza but not for Gran Turismo 5, must be a lot more to it.

And remember, Porsche haven't been in the last two Gran Turismo games either, maybe EA games just don't want them to appear in Gran Turismo games or maybe they are charging a lot of money to sub license them out or maybe Sony are waiting for EA's license to expire later in the year to buy it themselves? all possible....

If I remember correctly, EA has had the Porsche license since Need for Speed: Porsche Unleashed. That game came out like 10 years ago.

Odd. Future. Wolf. Gang. Kill. Em. All. OFWGKTA Don't give a fuck!

Fuck Steve Harvey. FREE EARL!

Final Fantasy Versus XIII will be the GREATEST game EVER made!!!

I'd take a bullet for Square-Enix!

As long as it still has the RUF modified Porsches, I'm really not bothered in the slightest.
