SCEE: Gran Turismo 5 Christmas release talk is “rumour and speculation”
SCEE has told CVG that talk of a Christmas release for Gran Turismo 5 is just that: “rumour and speculation”.
It comes as GT Planet tagged the game would for a release in time for the holidays, although the site claimed a date from Amazon US, December 29, is wrong.
“We haven’t announced a release date for GT5 yet,” said a rep from Sony, adding that it “can’t comment on the US.”
Keep an eye on Cologne in two weeks. It’s more then likely the date will be announced there.

If they don’t release it for Christmas they’re doomed and they know it.
GT5/Slim/price-cut = WIN.

I’d say those three announcements, plus a lot more “bits and bobs” from GC, would mean a very good Christmas for Sony.

Only a matter of 3 weeks now. Well, less really.
Wait… Weeks aren’t 6 days long… I mean a matter of virtually two weeks.

But I hope GT5 is out this year, I just can’t imagine ONE studio putting two games out. That’s an insane thought to me.

Oh yeah, you bought a laptop, so I have to assume it is you going.
By the way, on the subject of Gran Turismo, did anyone think the ending of Top Gear was odd, but awesome last night?
And did anyone notice to blatant use of the inFamous soundtrack in it? They used to use the Splinter Cell Chaos Theory one too. xD

They used a track that is LBP, too. A few episodes ago.

Yeah, what year…2010?
GT5 is Sony’s ace in the hole. I wouldn’t be surprised if they saved it till Xmas of 2010…(I said i wouldn’t be surprised….i also think it’d be ridiculous).
