if they push it back again im not buying it . i dont care HOW great it is .

I reached that point a while ago. It's in my buy used when it's cheap category. It probably wouldn't have happened if I didn't buy DiRT 2.

I'm the opposite. I've been hoping they'd push it back for a long time in the hopes they'll fix the archaic damage physics. I'm not usually big on racers, and I'm not really a car enthusiast, but the head tracking and other announced features for GT5 have me interested regardless. Because of this I'd rather wait for it to be the best racer in every way rather than just in car numbers and graphics. It's not like I'm hurting for anything to play. Hell between the website, my other job, and nursing school I'm already well-past strained for time. I'm giving up sleep completely soon. >_>

Amen.

I'm the same. I'm not a huge racing game fan and I'm a bad driver, but I still wish to experience the most fantastic racing game of all time. And GT5 will be just that.

Or did you all expect it in 2008

Yamauchi did.

 

In the same year as the Prologue was never going to happen. Not when it was selling so well. The game was 2009 at the earliest. And that was before they decided to commit to damage and all the other features fans were screaming for.

GT5 in 2008 was not the same game as GT5 in 2010.

It's hard to go against what the creator of the game said, but somehow you managed to.

 

LOL!

Yeah, like the guy on the first page (lestat?).

How can anyone deny that GT5 got delayed?

So Alan Wake also wasn't delayed because hey, Remedy never gave a release date. lol

I'm still here. 

So a delay is now considered whenever any time a developer or executive promisses a release date and then it isn't met? How many games pass through that process until they get an official release date.

Officially there was only one delay for GT5 on JP, nothing else.

There could have been many delays in development, if you look at my reply to NJ5 I acknowledge that, but official ones, it is only one, just like I said on my first post.

Hi. ^^

Who cares if delays were official or not? Fans and gamers don't.

If a game is officially announced or revealed it usually automatically means there's a rough target for release date, or else the dev wouldn't show the game to the public.

This is a fucking joke. I can't stress how long I've been waiting for this damn game.

After all the wait, I want PD to add even more tracks to make up for the time that i has been delayed.

Not all fans and gamers get their hopes up without official confirmation. I learned a long time ago not to get carried away without any official confirmation for the games that I want, mainly because Europe always got the short end of the stick when it came to videogames.

Once again, how many developers do that? Blizzard showed Starcraft 2 how long ago? Diablo 3 how long ago? How many times have Valve promised to work on Half-Life episode 3? How many previews and different builds of FFXIII were shown before the final game got showcased and officialy announced? 

This is not a GT5 isolated case.

Of course it's not an isolated case. I never said that. Actually I say most games get delayed to some extent, and usually the bigger and complex they are, the more delayed they get.

Blizzard, id and Remedy are famous for their 'when it's done' strategy to damage control the disappointment of delays. There's a few extreme cases of delays, and GT5 certainly belongs to them.

I agree that GT5 got too many development delays. To what extent are they going to be good or bad to the game, we have yet to see.

I think that PD need to rethink their strategy and adopt a similar one to the one you said about Blizzard, ID and Remedy, mainly because to avoid getting their fans with too much hope.

Exactly. Or, like Bethesda. They're outspokenly very careful to not show stuff until they have a lot to show from their games, and each time (with Morrowind, Oblivion and Fallout 3) they've managed to keep the wait to no more than 1,5 years from reveal to release.

But I must emphasize that I strongly believe it's all for the good in the case of GT5 (the delays).

I'm still so excited how they added those excellent physics. Is that for all 1000 cars btw, or just for 170 selected ones?
