Currently yes, though it sounds like many cars are just being updated from GT4 so I am sure that might be a factor. Original frames and renderings were not designed around the idea of damage so they are having to update them, if they do.

NIICE, finally. and a slim already?!1 oh well, the more the merrier

Just a couple months back one of Polyphony/Sony's reps released a riddle that hinted at the US release for March 2010. I'm going to keep banking on that and if it comes in December(which would kill in the Christmas rush) I'll just be that much happier.

And to the poster who said the PS3 is not a system that's worth it, please tell me how well your XBOX plays Bluray discs...At least you can watch King Kong in HD to your hearts' content. :-P

PS3 slim is $299.99 for Bluray, free online, web browsing, wifi, 120 gb, Dualshock 3 li ion battery, blutooth, and smaller product. Why would anyone buy a 360 at the same price of a PS3? Halo? Gears? Forza? Fable? Viva Pinata? lol

Those games aren't enough to close people. 360 is sitting at 30 million units shipped with a 54% failure rate and a year jump start, while PS3 is at 24 million considering price with a good number of exclusives. With the price drop at even for both consoles, 360's failure rates, and PS3's upcoming exclusives which outnumber 360, Microsoft shot themselves in the foot. Anyway your right though a christmas release would be brilliant. I just started a console war thread lmaoooo, I couldn't help the amazement of some people's opinions.

What exclusives does PS3 even have? Final Fantasy? on Xbox! Tekken 6 on XBOX. Metal Gear solid? Xbox getting an original Metal Gear game!

Every important exclusive from the PS2 days is on xbox now minus GT. Xbox has there own version and its done quite well! Xbox did not need Forza to survive at all are serious.

Last numbers to come from Xbox 360 units shipped was from March 09 at 30 million. Last update about PS3 numbers shipped worldwide was from this Month at 24 million. THAT IS A 5 MONTH GAP. The HD format war hurt microsoft. The failure rate really didnt 54% with 100% return rate the service is so fast you get your another console back in 2 weeks.

That’s consistent with Yamauchi’s previous comments, when he mentioned that only “race cars” could be damaged in the game. Unfortunately, he also confirmed that Porsche have chosen not to join the Gran Turismo series, signing an “exclusive arrangement” with other parties. That’s strange, though, because we already know that Porsche’s cars will be in both the upcoming Forza 3 and Need for Speed: Shift - games made by two different publishers. It looks like the mystery surrounding Porsche and their involvement (or lack thereof) with the GT series will continue to puzzle us fans for quite some time. Perhaps, one day, we will learn the full story…

No porsche?

That estimate was Xbox last's submit of shipped consoles, I wonder why they refused to submit the same month as Sony did? 54% failure my friend plays a part, shipping new consoles and replacing parts costs a lot when half your systems you sell get sent back

Of course most exclusives that Sony had are on Xbox, because Xbox can't make any exclusives so all they do is buy into multi-platform games. It is such a pathetic system you get charged to play online those multi-platform games your xbox is holding on to. MGS, FF12, Tekken 6 you can have them all, the sales rates will show they sell better on PS3. PS3 really doesn’t have any exclusives your right on that. Here’s why they don’t just to name a few.

Im talking blockbusters not MLB The Show. Viva Counters Little big planet

Halo counters every shooter there if that doesnt satisfy Gears does. Im talking the exclusives that make people want to buy the system. The blockbusters are multi-platform now. Madden will probably sell more on Xbox its the sports console.

As for online and playing many will tell you that they would rather play for a more stable online experience over laggy. Just check Tekken Zaibatsu Many people bought the PS3 initially for Tekken I am a tekken fan but I have no reason to go over to PS3 as I can get it for my Xbox. If you look around that forum you will see that many say they will get it for both systems or just xbox for the more stable online play.

Free doesnt always equal better. These kinda of debats pop up all the time when talking about the Z versus cayman. GT-R versus 911 is the price worth it to me it is.

most PS3 owners have PS2 and if not then it's a $100.00 for a PS2, probably much cheaper used. It would be nice to have backwards compatibility, but your getting Bluray for $299.99. They had to have cut something to support the low productions cost.
