So, apparently there was some delay to Gran Turismo 5 and the internet exploded and people cried and tears flowed and pre-orders were cancelled.
Whatever, I’ll just leave this here…
If anyone fancies translating, there’s new info here (via NeoGAF).
Soon, soon…

Now that is just pornography!

huh?!

Quite simple really. Add all of these numbers together to get the year in which GT5 actually goes on sale :)
bunimomike
That is the worst FacePalm post I’ve ever seen!
BIGAL-1992
It’s a message in binary,Hexadecimal and Decimal, NOT a facepalm.
bunimomike
I know! I was teasing. ;-)
BIGAL-1992
Ah, right. I was in a hurry to a lecture, so I wasn’t concentrating on the joke.
sideshow
Well done on discovering binary and hex, but I CBA translating it. What’s it say?
BIGAL-1992
Translation below. Anyway, gotta go!
bunimomike
Ignoring the piss taking here, but that tire screech was lovely! Yay! God bless them getting their Christmas bonus early and sinking it into ‘BBC Tire Screech Sounds Volume 2’. The delay was justified.
N12K
But with these delays Tyre Screech volume 3 could be out by then. *Fears the implications*
BIGAL-1992
Translation: Dear kaz, please shut up and release GT5, as I’m bored of this (BEEP)!

carson321
what language is that??!
BIGAL-1992
Computer.
carson321
I thought the first part might have been binary, but it doesn’t translate properly? surely dear kaz comes out as
0110010001100101011000010111001000100000011010110110000101111010
BIGAL-1992
I spaced it out to make it clearer to people.
sideshow
Oh. Agreed :)
Jas-n
Computer language master, if you are one, then you’d call it by it’s proper name.
BIGAL-1992
Final part was ASCII.

Can you do assembler?
BIGAL-1992
You mean Assembly?
3shirts
No Assembly is what noobs call it
BIGAL-1992
Assembly is what PROGRAMMERS call it!
JamboGT
Yeah its Assembly language for the Assembler so BIGAL wins this scintillating round!
Watchful
This programmer calls it assembler code, though that code would by written in a particular assembly language.
3shirts
So translating it would make you an assembler wouldn’t it.
JamboGT
I guess different programmers have different names then!
bunimomike
We used to have assembly in primary school.
JamboGT
Avengers assemble too.

Ass-embly is Assembly, by the way BIGAL-1992 can you translate the binary, please? :D

I stopped waiting for this game in about 2009, so will be a nice surprise when it’s finally sitting in my PS3/4 (still pre-ordered it like a numpty)
JamboGT
Looks amazing as always. Man I hope I don’t fail final year because of this…
Foxhound_Solid
WOW – It looks sooo fooking good!
Come on GT5!
ALL GOOD THINGS COME TO THOSE WHO WAIT.
carson321
why would you convey shouting in that last sentence?!
Foxhound_Solid
It just felt like the right thing to do at the time….
Jas-n
Random bit of an old trailer at the end.
Also explains why it’s been delayed, the current Stig’s been fired, so the in-game one needs re-modeling for the (possibly) new Stig, or re-colour him to whatever colour the new Stig will be.
Jas-n
Who is newsbot?
3shirts
A futuristic news robot sent back in time to change the future. He will give you news without remorse and will not stop until he is destroyed
bunimomike
There’s every chance he’ll want Jas-n’s clothes, boots and motorcycle.
Shakugan
and he’s gonna terminate you.
