Motoring website ‘Jalopnik’ has managed to grab a few words with Kazunori Yamauchi, the father of Gran Turismo, and it seems he has a few words to say about GT5 that may make fans sigh in relief:
“The discs are being stamped as we speak.”
If this is true then it means any issues that were holding the game back will have been resolved. Either that or the discs are blank and the game will be getting a 25GB patch further down the line. Come on Sony, give us a release date.

Internetz are on fire with this news tonight!! However, my site advisor keeps flagging the Jalopnik website up as a risk.
Will only be convinced if we here a release date very soon!

He’s pressing each disk individually himself to make sure they are ‘perfect’.

Oh good GOD how horrible would a 20GB patch be? it took me an hour to download a 72MB patch the other day :(
cam the man
Never mind the time it takes to download I’ve only got 11Gb of free space on my HDD.

I’m in doubt that it will be released before xmas, or if it is, there will be MASSIVE shortages.

I actually think I’m the only person in the world that isn’t bothered about gt. Granted it’s going to be beautiful, and will probably blow the racer world apart, but it’s just not of interest to me. Different strokes for different folks.

I’m not bothered about GT either. Don’t even think it’ll blow the racer world apart.

27th november, I think, it only takes three weeks from factory to shelves, if f1 2010 is anything to go buy, and GT5 already had the cases made, its just the discs were faulty, so i think thats quite realistic. definitely this year.
Matty
doubt it will release on a saturday

I think I was interested in GT5 for a brief period of a couple of weeks around when that demo was out, since then I’ve not given a toss really, all I think is that if this game isn’t as good as they’re making it out to be they’re gonna have a lot of pissed-off fans.
