Gaming: Gran Turismo 5 No Closer To Western Release Date

WHILE THE LATEST instalment in the Gran Turismo franchise remains on track for a March 2010 launch in Japan, Sony and Polyphony Digital are no closer to confirming dates for the English-language version.

Speaking with gaming site Destructoid, Sony Computer Entertainment America's Chris Hinojosa-Miranda said the company is hoping for a Summer 2010 (US) launch - around June or July at the earliest.

In early September, online retail giant Amazon posted a product page for Gran Turismo 5, listing a December 29 release date.

In the time since, Amazon has changed the date to March 31 - a date that would also seem inaccurate, given Hinojosa-Miranda's comments.

Toyota and GT5 publisher Polyphony Digital announced in October that the FT-86 concept would feature among the game's cars.

    its ok though, forza still won't compare. i wasn't impressed with forza 3 at all, it's just an extension to 2 pretty much.

    Only a mindless fanboy wouldn't be impressed by Forza 3. With GT5 7 or 8 month out they may just be able to crank out another Forza.
