Title: GT3 Delayed Again
Post by: inteq on March 29, 2001, 07:16:29 PM
GT3 has been delayed again until Winter in Japan, with it probably not coming out in the US until next year.  Go to http://www.dailyradar.com/news/game_news_7482.html to read the whole story.

Maybe they are adding online play?  I thought they would have released it around the time of the Xbox launch to try and take away from it.

This just stupid now. The last time it was delayed, I got pissed, but then I read something Soulgrind said about waiting for them to get it right.

That made sense to me so I swallowed my pride and said "ok,  take a few more months, I can deal"

But c\'mon dammit. If this is true it is ridiculous.

This is becoming quite ludicrous.
Its getting delayed as much as an N64 game.
Hopefully thats a conservative date and it gets released before that.

I also remember MSR for DC which got delayed over and over and it didn\'t turn out that great.  At least LeMans 24 Hours is still on schedule for this summer.

This is positively insane! How can they possibly delay the game till winter? That\'s like 7-8 months! What in the world could they add to the game in that amount of time? Think about it it\'s like a whole extra development cycle!

Damn! This is really depressing. They allready said the game barely fit on the DVD so why try to put anything extra in it.

I am major pissed  :rpissed: and Sony better give me a damn good explanation for the delay. I want to hear that their adding at least 5 more tracks, or realtime weather in all the tracks (instead of just the one Rainy stage R5), I want new cars!

Yet I still don\'t feel any of this will justify the enormous delay. If this is just a tactic to compete with the X-Box launch then I really feel they are screwing us over.

Considering that GT3 is essentially finished, I\'m not going to believe DR until they provide a high level source for this bit of news. A delay to add content doesn\'t make sense, GT3 doesn\'t need anything more to sell well. The time is better spent working on online GT4 and Polyphony Digital\'s other non-racing side project.

thats my feeling as well

Interesting enough, no other site has posted this news yet. I would figure Gamespot, IGN and others would have updates on this

We can always hope. Its nice to keep a positve outlook on things.

The rumors of the dealy had been circulating for a while, but this supposed delay to Winter is insane. Most sites had reported anything from 2 weeks to one month, I don\'t think anyone expected this, if it is true.

Update: Japan\'s NTT Publishing as well as Korean Ruliweb have stated a delay from April 15th to April 28th. I tend to trust sources that don\'t require translating.  

For now, the burden of proof lies on DR.

EDIT: zzz from GA forum posted a link to the Ruliweb news piece

Take that DR! (by now you can tell I don\'t respect DR, hehe)
