The latest issue of Famitsu has an interview with Kazunori Yamauchi for the new Gran Turismo on PS3.
+ They\'ll release 2 versions for the new Gran Turismo (they use the same "Gran Turismo HD" name of the E3 demo for the product names) for the PS3 soon. Both support online multiplayer.
+ The proper GT5 is going to hit in 2008. GT HD is meant to grow the rich network service before GT5. The online modes are based on the 4 modes in GT4:Online beta (Quick Race/Tuned Race/Private Race/Time Attack) and several other modes are added. The online will be launched worldwide at the same time.
+ Gran Turismo HD: Premium is essentially a GT5 prologue that uses the full graphics power of the PS3. (Pictures show a 3D spectator crowd, very detailed car models with interiors.) The weather changes while racing. It comes with 2 courses (both original and new, city and nature) and 30 cars including new ones. You can buy additional 30 cars and 2 courses (real circuits) later online. This version (or both GT HD, not sure) is a pure driving simulator and almost a tool. You don\'t get cars in in-game events, you just do whatever you want with games and courses or buy new ones via online.
+ Gran Turismo HD: Classic is what adopts the GT:HD playable demo at E3 and meant to showcase the online aspect. A race is done with about 20 cars. Apparently this version starts with no cars or courses. You download a car for 50 - 100 yen (0.43 - 0.85$) and a course for 200 - 500 yen (1.71 - 4.26$). Over 750 cars and 50 cars are available for purchase. Users can define race events freely and can hold online race events by themselves.
+ Not all cars and courses are available on the release date, they are added monthly. Some models may be a limited release for 1000 units. New playing modes and tuning parts may be available via download. It\'s still undecided if they allow trade among users in fear of real money trade.
You have to buy the cars and courses...

That is incredibly fucking stupid.
Over 750 cars and 50 cars are available for purchase.
Wow. Over 750 cars and 50 cars? Amazing.
Also, that is incredibly fucking stupid.

What, just because there are so many?
Is Gran Turismo actually fun? I know it\'s pretty, but is it ever really enjoyable?
I remember playing it with a PT Cruiser and realizing how badly I was going to lose, so I opened the racecar and beat the hell out of the game and gave up. GT3. Probably lasted about a week for me and I still don\'t feel a desire to try again, even if it is in high definition. ... Though, that would be neat to show off, heh.

I dont like the idea of purchasing tracks and cars to be able to play. I dont like tha fact that they are offering 2 versions either
But I think they are trying to promote their online service with it which would be used for GT5 because otherwise not many might have cared to join since they would have been able to play it without using it.
Anyways, I dont like the idea. Atleast we will get GT5 proloque

started with madden on 360. Theyre making u purchase alternate uniforms..very gay.
i hope this trend of buying stuff online doesnt continue..i pay 60 bucks for a full game..thats 10 more than usual let alone even MORE extra shit.
-
Yeah I see now that they charge you for the cars. That is retarded. I no longer am interested in showing off the graphics, heh. What a waste.

I think I\'m going to avoid any games in future that are going to nickle and dime me for upgrades or features that should be included. That said, the prologue seems to be the full game (cars and tracks included), and being a huge fan of the GT series, I\'ll prolly pick that up, and boycott the \'extras\'.

imagine how fast your HD will fill up if every game did this to that extend... heh...

So do you have to buy the cars in Gran Turismo 5?
Or just Gran Turismo HD: Classic?
The information there isn\'t exactly laid out comprehensively. Very confusing.

i think it states the classic version....i\'ll just get the version that doesn\'t have the downloadable feature...
