Kazunori Yamauchi talks GT5 Prologue, GT for PSP

Gran Turismo 5 Prologue - Image 1GamePro recently sat down with Kazunori Yamauchi, the lead producer behind the Gran Turismo series, to talk about what's in store for the popular racing franchise.

Among the many new features in the coming iterations of the Gran Turismo series is GT TV where players can view real-life motoring shows. When asked, Yamauchi revealed that the speed at which videos will become available depends on the type of content.

"If it's race footage, people would want to see it immediately or as soon as possible due to the nature of a race," said Yamauchi. "Whereas a documentary-style program, there is less of an urgency. It could be a month after airing, or shorter or longer."

It also looks like limited Sixaxis support similar to the one in Gran Turismo HD Concept will be included in Gran Turismo 5: Prologue. Players will remember that putting down the Sixaxis controller in GT HD Concept caused a menu to appear. Yamauchi said that these elements will hopefully be implemented in Prologue, but not any kind of Sixaxis steering.

While Gran Turismo 5: Prologue will be available in both Blu-ray and PSN versions in Europe, it looks like the U.S. will be getting only the Blu-ray version of the game. A Gran Turismo title for the Sony PlayStation Portable also looks like a possibility. According to Yamauchi, it would probably come after Gran Turismo 5. "We are working on it, and we will get around to it eventually," he said.

there are holes in everything!



gt5p good news to me!

definitely a must play until the full gt5 game is released.

forza pgr4? i think you are in the wrong section of qj. this is not the xbox 360 section. this is the PLAYSTATION PORTABLE / PS3 section. and the topic above is about GT5P on PS3 and better GT on PSP.



anyways lucky that GT5P will be released also to other territories besides Japan. you gaijin people should be thankful.
