TGS 2008: Gran Turismo PSP still coming, says Yoshida |
Ó
From TGS we finally get an update, no matter how small, on the Gran Turismo game for the PSP.Wait, there's a Gran Turismo game for the PSP? Yes, for those who forgot or don't have a clue since we hardly get any updates on it. It was announced way back in 2004, but its release has been pushed back several times.
The last we heard of the game was back in E3, when Polyphony Digital's CEO confirmed that it was still in development, but that we won't see it until after Gran Turismo 5 is released.
So where's the game now? Rest assured, Gran Turismo PSP is still in development, according to Shuhei Yoshida, head of Sony Worldwide studios. He was a bit skimpy on the details though. When asked where Gran Turismo Mobile got to, he answered:
Good question! It's in Polyphony Digital, they're working on it. They have been working on Gran Turismo 5 Prologue and Gran Turismo 5 for PS3, so they've had to focus on finishing up Gran Turismo on the PS3 side. That's been making the PSP development a little bit slow.
Seeing as Polyphony once hinted that there's a chance we won't see GT5 until 2010, we probably shouldn't expect a lot of news to come out for Gran Turismo PSP's development anytime soon. Except maybe more "I cannot comment" lines.

"Seeing as Polyphony once hinted that there's a chance we won't see GTA5 until 2010...wait..."
GTA5 sweet! What about Gran Turismo? :)
Whoops! Freudian slip? Hehe, corrected, thanks ^^
Here's an apropriate quote from Crysis:
"That's a load of bull and you know it!"
-Psycho questioning mission objectives
I mean come on, they've said that like 3 times now and still not even screenshots of it (the first ones was GT4 on PS2, there's no way GT Mobile looked that good ~2 years ago...)
I stopped believing them long ago. They said it would be out shortly after launch and I got a PSP with that game in mind, and guess what it never came out and I think it was all just to sell units and nothing more.
Yea I don't believe them.
This was 1/2 of the reason I bought a PSP to start with as well. Ho hum.
This was 3/4 the reason I got a PSP and the reason why I'm so disappointing in non-hacked PSPs. I-it made me bitter inside, the betrayal...
Why bother? You can already play GT2 via pops atm anyway and by time they release this, the PSP2 will be on the scene - or even more likely - this release won't be even half as decent as something like burnout.
Snore. Next.
