Gran Turismo 5 fans!! Break the Silence

300ShooTTer

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 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.

If 360 is the sports console then why does PS3 have a blockbuster MLB franchise?

"Halo counters every shooter there if that doesnt satisfy Gears does." Typical typical typical fanboy, Do not start Halo and Gears debates with every one of those blockbuster titles, yes every one of them. Enjoy having a milk of Halo and repetitive gears. Viva pinata over little big planet, you do release what you said right? Little big planet is game of the year. Along with MGS4 which xbox does NOT get. Why do 360 fanboys go back to retaliation instead of agreeing maybe there would be no console war, but most 360 owners I know all have the same opinion at everything. Until the numbers and facts come out, they still don't agree. Laggy online? what lag? There's more lag on Halo then their is on most games i've played. I have Wi-fi two PS3's online and Dlink Gamerlounge and I still rarely get lag. LOL Viva counters Little big planet lmfaoooooo

It's been proven time and time again that multi-platform games play better on the 360.

My PS3 lags WAY more than my 360. LIVE is by far a better service than the PSN. It's true when they say you get what you pay for.

I lol'd at Viva Pinata being better than LBP... LBP is AWESOME, and one of the reasons I bought a PS3. Can't wait for Mod Nation Racers.

I also lol'd at the list of exclusives you put up. Most of those games sucked. Just because they're exclusives doesn't mean they're good (you know, like Halo... even though it's way better than that crap Resistance).

You gotta think, there's a reason why former exclusives moved on to the 360...

because as of right now the Slim does not play old ps1 and ps2 games.
Which you know is important.
I love the GT series, sigh i dunno if i will get this now

t-ray

Every ps3 plays ps1 games.

Devil Z

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.

SManZ

Easy. It doesn't play BluRay and I give not a damn. PS3 fanboys always point out that their VIDEO GAME system plays HD movies as if that is the saving grace for this platform. If I want to play BluRay movies I'll buy a BluRay player. If I want to play games, I won't be looking for a PS3. If the PS3 happens to be the cheapest/best BluRay player if/when I get into the market for one I'll buy it...as a BluRay player.

Not to toot my own horn, but I found this on page two.

Here's a link as to why all this has been a load of BS, look at the comments and the topic. People are frustrated with the lack of common sense on how to market a game let alone hold a fan base. March 2010 is not really far, but with all the hype and now 6 more months to go it's just plain stupid. Plain plain old stupid
