Is there a chance they will only announce a PS3 version for now, to not steal DriveClub's thunder?

I'm still holding out hope that this will be PS3, Vita and PS4.

 

[Loris146]

That's what I'm expecting. With GT Academy 2014 as a "demo" coming out around summer.

Yep. I think this make sense : Sony will push PS4 hardware and there will be a good audience.

 

[Majine]

I kinda want to see something on the Vita, but it's probably all on PS3.

 

[velociraptor]

GT6 FOR PS4 LET'S DO THIS.

(Wishful thinking )

they could announce a PS4 date for spring/early 2014 which wouldn't impact drive club too much

 

[1-D_FTW]

GT6 PS4 in 2014 would make sense.

Probably. Although I'd vastly prefer an up-port of GT6 in 2013 and delay Drive Club into 2014. Such different games. It's a shame they're seen as competition and GT6 will likely suffer as a result.

 

[levitan]

Am I dreaming? Time to polish my G27 and DFGT.

 

[Psycho_Mantis]

They ain't having this event to unveil a Vita game lol.

I'm guessing PS4.

 

[darkwing]

Damn straight. Remember the GT5 trailer with London Elektricity's - Just One Second (Apex Remix)?

It's one of the best god damn trailers out there. That music. Those visuals.

Perfection

wow that video got 3M views, so good

 

[velociraptor]

If they release this on the PS3 I will be flabbergasted. As a business decision, it is downright terrible. Sales have been declining over the past few months and who in their right mind is really going to want to invest in a 7 year old machine when the new and improved PS4 is just around the corner.

 

[RagingAvatar]

I'd really like to see a GT6 Prologue feat. Academy with Cross Buy for PS3/Vita.
Obviously, then PS4 gets GT6.

Spoiler

I'm prepared to be disappointed.

 

[levitan]

PS3/PS4 cross-gen GT6. And GT Vita! And TT2! That's the future for you.

 

[sleeping_dragon]

The best game of this generation by a mile. Can't wait to play GT6

 

[Sid]

OUTTA NOWHERE!

"Today we announce that we will not develop any more Gran Turismo games, thanks for coming to Silverstone"

Yeah,enjoy the drinks and go home and play GT5 after downloading the latest 10 GB update....

It's sales will be hampered by releasing on PS4 only, Sony can only sell 10mil at most in it's first year, and maybe up to 50% of those will buy GT6 if it's exclusive to the platform, that's a best case scenario and it's less that the series has proven capable of selling on a platform with a large installed base. But at the same time I think it'll damaging to the PS4 to release it on PS3 only, and a huge opportunity lost. Cross-platform is therefore the only way to go!

GT6 will NOT sell 10m particularly as the PS3 is nearing the end of it's lifecycle. I think anything above 8 million is optimistic.

He means 10M PS4 consoles.

 

[SolidSnakex]

There's little point in speculating that it isn't going to at the very least be a PS3 game. There's no way that Denny slipped up on the platform that it's on.

 

[ThisWreckage]

People keep on mentioning cross platform but no one has addressed my points earlier in the thread. I would love to see it happen, but how likely is it for them to have a cross platform game when the Cell architecture is so drastically different from what the PS4 has and it took them years to make GT5 even though that game was for one console.

 

[Sid]

Releasing GT6 as a PS3 exclusive this fall will decrease the chances of PS4 hitting the Euro land this year....

 

[Aguirre]

engine sounds of the future

we'll never get past glorified hair dryers

The same way it's possible for Assassin's Creed, Thief, Watch Dogs, Wolfenstein and several other games to be cross platform.

 

[Visualante2]

I wonder if the Evolution Studios people are invited

Probably because people are tired of hearing about how 'PD are so slow' and 'PD are so inefficient' when nothing could be further from the truth. For the size of the studio they are ridiculously productive and GT5 was not in full development from the release of GT4 onwards so you can't use that time period as a measure of how long GT5 took.

Not decrease, obliterate!

Sony Santa Monica commented on that

With high definition remasters of the series already a proven success on PS3, the potential in a deluxe 1080p60 rendition of the God of War series on PS4 is compelling. Kratos' first two outings scaled up remarkably well to 720p and it's easy to see how well the rich detail in current-gen God of War titles would translate at 1080p to the next generation. But would such a port be easy, bearing in mind how closely Sony Santa Monica tailored its code for the PS3's unique architecture?

"It could be done. The PS4 hardware is such a big leap forward in terms of graphics power compared to the PS3 that we probably wouldn't need to go that far. Most if not all of the SPU techniques we developed and used on PS3 were there to reduce the RSX workload. With the PS4 GPU we probably wouldn't need those techniques."

[FordGTGuy]

It's not a Viper I can tell you that and it's not a Corvette.

 

[malyce]

Not this again... You do realize the ps3 has yet to hit $199 and there will be a much larger user base at GT6's launch compared to GT5's right?

I see. It's definitely possible then.

 

[nofi]

I wonder if the Evolution Studios people are invited

Heh.

 

[tranciful]

Don't think it's the vette. Also don't think it's the viper. That ferrari posted above doesn't have a rise at the tail, so I doubt that's it either.

 

[dubc35]

hachi roku

 

[Hanmik]

Looks like a Ferrari F150.

no way..

 

[Takuya]

Like I've said before, could easily be an in-engine render with in-engine cloth physics, so the measurements may be slightly off.

 

[BloodMoney]

The announcement flyer should have look like this...

they need to give us audiophiles a glimmer of hope (that sounds will be vastly improved).

 

[tranciful]

Close, but that nose seems to be pointed lower under the cover

 

[velociraptor]

Whatever platform GT6 is on, I just have one hope.

It is as fun as GT3 and GT4.

I didn't find GT5 'that' fun, although it was a good game. I put countless of hours in it, but reading this excellent article by http://www.gtplanet.net/celebrating-15-years-of-gran-turismo/, it has hit back all the memories I had with the previous game. GT1, GT2, GT3, GT4. They were all spectacular games.

 

[SmokyDave]

It's some crazy Jaguar F-Type 'R' or something under the cloth. Something that hasn't been officially unveiled yet. That's my theory anyway.

I wonder if it's worth me crashing this event dressed as a crying Vita?

 

[dubc35]

Close, but that nose seems to be pointed lower under the cover

possible BRZ then? Nose it a little different.

edit, actually that BRZ nose doesn't look stock...

 

[Hanmik]

it fits..

we have found Cinderella.. (maybe)

 

[Raist]

It's not a Viper I can tell you that and it's not a Corvette.

Still a much better guess than the F150

 

[BloodMoney]

If its a BRZ, this is definitely a GT Academy announcement. While the BRZ/FRS are great cars, they arn't exotic enough to be on the cover of GT6.

BRZ confirmed for GT Academy 2013?

 

[FordGTGuy]

no way..

I said looks like, BTW that picture is not what the side of a La Ferrari looks like notice the differences from my pictures above.

 

[blade85]

Is this open to everyone? I only live like an hours drive away from Silverstone lol.

 

[Graphics Horse]

I still think the downloadable GT Academy 2013 will effectively be a GT6 demo. We'll find out soon enough.

 

[Saiyar]

no way..

Thats not the F150.

 

[velociraptor]

it fits..

Doesn't look like it. The rear spoiler is quite pronounced. The bonnet is has a greater and longer curve, and the front bumper is not as sharp.
