GT 5 Gets YouTube Video Upload Function
Asia Game Show confirms a few new tracks, too.Published 26/12/2009 at 9:11 by nofi
Sony Aiming At “October” For GT5 [27]
GT5 Release Date Announced Soon [41]
Gran Turismo Gets More Footage [41]
In a last ditch attempt to squeeze just a little more out of 2009, the Japanese Asia Game Show 2009 has played host to a sneeky peek at Gran Turismo 5, according to GT Planet. Despite the underwhelming demo released last week, Gran Turismo 5 still has the potential to be absolutely massive, and hopes are still high that Polyphony Digital know exactly what they’re doing with the series.
The video above shows footage from two city courses, Rome and Madrid, and new video of the WRC and NASCAR events. The presentation also re-iterated a few interesting bulletpoints: over 950 cars, over 20 locations (with 60 variations), the ability to export GT TV footage to the PSP, new physics, overturnable cars, moveable track objects (cones, I’d assume) and the ability to upload replay footage to YouTube.
March 2010 is also mentioned, although it’s only a ‘planned for’ date so I guess even the Asian release could slip.
Thanks, MUKARKAR.

Nofi, shouldn’t you be spending the morning of Boxing Day with your family?

The time trial track released isn’t a demo. Its specifically something for the GT Academy. Hence all the assists being off (and damage). So I wouldn’t be too disappointed.

And it is a time trial on a pretty crappy track – how exciting could it get?

I really like that track. It has a nice mixture of corners with everything from fast sweeping bends to tight hairpins. Personal preference I suppose.

Ditto. The scenery was a bit bland, but it’d be quite interesting to try and race on, and had a nice layout.

Yes, it IS a demo, it says so when you boot it up.

Technically it’s a demo but a very limited and restrictive one at that. Tell you what, matey, I wouldn’t want to base my purchase on the demo we’ve just seen. God knows it leaves me colder than a penguin’s privates. It felt like a tech-demo not a “here’s a slice of the game to whet your appetite with”. Know what I mean?

I really like youtube connectivity for a game like this. If you manage to get a flawless lap or a brilliant race, you can upload it. Would make a time trial competition more interesting as you could see the replays of other people you were racing against instead of just the top 250 in the world.

yes, a very boring way to show off a demo

Well it this Demo was for the GT academy, a Gran Tursimo demo would allow you to race not a time trial or simply a premium demo called Gran Tursimo 5 Prologue
