I don't think these shots possess too much bull about them, aside from the blur of course. The car models look like I'd expect...it's not like they've trotted out screenshots in the equivalent form of the Ferrari 458 video, which had very misleading footage in it (even though it wasn't technically meant to represent GT5).
But even so, I wish PD didn't feel the need to add motion blur or a shit ton of AA to some pictures or videos...I think that Eurogamer article about bullshots a while back was spot on when it came to PD and GT5...PD don't need to enhance any media footage, it looks great as it is.

Well they have shown more than 2 ferarris for GT5, so I would not worry abotu that type of stuff.
PSP GT is pretty much a blend of GT3 and 4 which were indeed mid 90's Japan oriented. But then again, every GT game has, and I would not be surprised if GT5 is too for the majority of the cars.
They could be photo mode shots though couldn't they. Not strictly bullshots to us lot.offshore said:
Well, it's not the full list. There's more than two Ferraris for example. It could also explain the supposed limit on the number of cars you can transfer from the PSP to PS3. I've read some people saying it's basically GT4 portable so this doesn't necessarily mean anything for GT5 either... but we'll see I guess.

Pretty much. These screens serve two purposes, they show off GT5 while also showing off GT5's new photomode. Now they'll probably release ingame shots along the way just as they did with Prologue, but the majority of screens are going to come from the photomode.
SolidSnakex said:
Yep. They said photomode outputs 8mp shots, the supersampled ones, which could very well be what we are seeing here. As to in game direct feed shots or off screens, those would come from the various demos so far, I don't think we have officially seen any yet.

But those cars were contemporary when GT1 was released. I know we're looking at the GT
SP line-up and not GT5 but as we know these cars are unlockable in GT5, we know that is the bulk of the car roster. Why no BMW M5? Why no E30 M3? I could play this game all day but you get what I'm getting at? I don't expect the same 'feel' from the car roster that I got with GT1, times have changed.The fact there are easily 1000 notable cars between 1950 and 2000 that won't be in the game makes it harder to look at all those 94-99 Japanese cars.
Oh well, it'll still melt my face with its awesomeness when it arrives, I'm probably just bitter because my GT
SP download code still isn't here SolidSnakex

Yeah, the photomode gives a AA boost and is obviously displaying a higher resolution as well as a few other effects. But as far as I know the models for everything are exactly the same as you see while you're playing. In GT4 they did create two different models and they were open about that. When you were playing and during replays you'd have one model but if you selected the photomode with the special locations (and during the car selection) you'd get a higher poly model. They don't need to do that anymore since the cars now have such a high level of detail in every area.

December 2009. I still believe.
At a Japanese game show, they announced the Japanese release date. No need to announce the European date, especially if it's 3 months earlier.
PSP ! Letting people believe GT5 isn't coming for another 6 months for a while, will greatly benefit Gran Turismo PSP sales.
Also, this quote from Meristation:

Yeah, it makes more sense to make people choose between Heavy Rain, God of War III, Final Fantasy XIII and Gran Turismo 5.
Instead of putting it in December, when nothing else comes out.

Yes even after that. Kaz has already said that they're using the time to finish up the "experience" of the game.
Heavy Rain, God of War III, Final Fantasy XIII and Gran Turismo 5...plus MAG, The Last Guardian and the PS Motion Controller....Sony are going all out in 2010, no doubt about it.
Although I think a lot of people will just import the JP version of FFXIII...even if they won't have a fucking clue what's going on.

We know you will be able to bring cars between GT5 and GTPSP, but we don't really know how many cars will be available in both. It's still possible that it will be a smaller number than we would assume, freeing up a lot more space in the roster for more varied cars. Somebody could confirm/deny this, I'm sure, but I would guess that GTPSP is probably using a lot of assets from GT4 whether they be further edited or not etc and thus it's going to have a more classic GT roster. But since basically every bit of car modelling had to be redone for 5, perhaps we can hope for a bit more variety in cars, considering how GT5 seems to have a conscious effort to cater to car enthusiasts from each part of the world with NASCAR, WRC etc. I guess at the same time, the amount of detail each model requires now would make putting in 250 types of Skyline pretty tempting, but I guess we'll have to wait and see.
I don't know how optimistic to be about what I'm saying, but the point is, we don't really know yet. Kaz may yet deliver us from Evo. (Although I totally love Evo's, so whatever Kaz, it's cool)
And yeah, I like that the screens are what appears to be photomode, because it does make me really excited about the possibilities of the new photo mode. I'll probably spend quite some time there! Also makes me wonder about what sort of tech is involved in the rendering, especially lighting etc etc, so I really enjoy seeing these screens.
Damodar said:
Best one-liner in this or any other topic.
I certainly hope the roster changes. I'm not too worried because GT is GT but it would be nice to see Vauxhall Vivas racing against Escort Mexicos. I'm dreading photo mode, I can see me losing entire evenings just to get one shot perfect. Total time-sink.
Now, where the hell is my GT
SP code Sony?

The gameblog guy said they were still tweaking it, a few more weeks, but not much longer.
Why would he say that if they have at least 4 more months until the game has to be gold ?

It makes no sense that they only have a small amount of development time left. Otherwise the Japanese date wouldn't be March. Yes, FFXIII is coming out in December, but FF games are extremely front loaded. By January it will have pretty much run its course as far as sales go. So they could release it then or even February because the PS3 really doesn't have anything in those months for Japan. But they aren't, they're releasing it in March.
Goldrusher said:
He could be talking about tweaking damage specifically over the next few weeks, and after that, they'll move on to tweaking on other things until they go gold by early Feb.
At least the positive thing is that Kaz is still talking about tweaking, as opposed to "working on"...if it's true that they were at the polishing stage at E3, you have to wonder how polished the final code is going to be if it's still 6 months out.

I'm hesitant to believe any GT rumor involving Porsche. There's something very weird going on with that company when it comes to GT.

Advantages of a closed system (programming 'down to the metal'), the help of a fast graphics friendly CPU (for its time), and some of the very best artists in the field. It ain't supernatural.
NFS: Porsche Unleashed came out in March 2000...assuming that EA signed their exclusive contract with Porsche for 10 years, that would mean that the contract would run out in March 2010...exactly when GT5 is coming out. Something like that is feasible.
It feels like there's a tangle between Porsche, EA, PD and T10, maybe along the lines of T10 paying EA to get Porsche, but EA won't licence Porsche out to PD, maybe because of an agreement with T10 that they won't, so PD then move into NASCAR to piss off EA, and then all of a sudden EA announce they're not doing any more NASCAR games... but who knows.
There's just no logical reason I can see why Porsche wouldn't want to be in GT5.

A nice tangled web of conspiracy but I think it's too perfect. If that were the case they wouldn't delay the whole game, they'd just release the Porsche stuff as DLC further along the line, and it would suit both parties as everybody would rush out to buy it and the added marketing push (a la the Ferrari 458 stuff) would be great PR for Porsche.offshore said:

i thought the consenus was that in gt4 the difference in photo mode was that they had proper (3d) rim models in the photo tours (but not in replay photo sessions), and that was about it mesh-wise. where/when did PD say about the completely different models?SolidSnakex said:

They were the higher end models, the GT4 in game models were downgraded models of those. When Polyphony was talking about releasing GTHD they mentioned that they were going to use those higher end models for it.

EA must be looking for a ridiculous amount of money then. Polyphony now has Ferrari, Bugatti and Lamborghini on board as well as WRC and NASCAR licenses (and potentially more of those). So they aren't shy about throwing money around anymore (if they ever were).

It's probably not about money and more that the would rather deal directly with Porsche than a 3rd party license holder.
I don't think any of the other cars/manufacturers are under a similar deal.

gt4 does LOD while in (re)play mode, naturally, so on the average those models are downgraded, but the highest LOD models in (re)play were identical to the photo shoots - all the difference was in the wheels. the proof is in the pudding - try to find differences in the body models from the photo tour and from replay - there are none, and replay mode never loads extra data when switching to photo-shooting (it's instantaneous), thus the 2d wheels in replay (play models), versus 3d wheels in photo tour (dedicated stage and wheel assets).SolidSnakex said:
