Support NeoGAF

I feel Amar's winds

 

[chubigans]

They added some new trees, textures, and implemented real-time lighting. The actual track model looks considerably lower quality compared to something like Bathurst though.

Ah, I thought it looked better than that but I can't really remember. But yeah, some of those tracks were really quite poor visually.

 

[chrominance]

What if by "Sports" they mean Motorsports? Similar to what Project CARS is going for with its motorsports-focused career mode?

EDIT: Beaten by

If it's real that's my thought.

Limited to on track and off road rally, real world circuits only, and real world motorsports cars only, so they can provide a full damage mode without manufacturers hamstringing them. Some WRC, some DTM and LeMans supercars and done. Maybe half a dozen tracks, 30-50 cars and a $30-40 price tag to whet people's appetite until a full mega game next year and beta test all the online capabilities. All in 1080/60.

If they announce this for this fall they will sell millions of it.

 

[blastprocessor]

Sorry but how does this Amar guy know?

 

[shandy706]

Didn't they say there will not be a prologue this gen?

Well, all you have to do is not call it prologue....heh.

 

[chrominance]

Sorry but how does this Amar guy know?

He's a GTPlanet poster (not sure if he's an admin?) who's released tons of info on previous GT games.

 

[eso76]

Amar212 [...] first teased the “Gran Turismo Sport” name in a post on NeoGAF last month.

Which is exactly where this retailer got the idea from ?

 

[0.1.1.2.3.5.8.13.21.34.55]

Sorry but how does this Amar guy know?

He dropped huge bombs about GT5 prior to release via a cryptic set of clues know as 'the winds'

 

[Psycho_Mantis]

I would add Cape Ring to the tracks that need a complete redo.


I would say every new track they have made since shipping GT5 has looked great. DLC for GT5 and the new tracks for GT6 all look top notch.

wut....Cape ring looks fine

 

[Metfanant]

if thats going to be the actual title...consider me concerned. one thing Polyphony Digital does NOT need is a widened focus, and thats what the title implies to me...

GT7 absolutely MUST be a solid, polished, feature complete entry in the series after GT5/6...if they want to go crazy for GT8 after forming a solid base with 7...so be it...

but I'm officially concerned...

 

[Coulomb_Barrier]

Yes, he said himself (Yamauchi).

Doesn't the title, if it's even real, indicate a tighter focus?

 

[Doctor_Thomas]

I think there's parts of it that look great, but it's a little bland in others. When it comes to "fantasy" tracks, they shouldn't be afraid to, I dunno, stick a hot dog vendor or a monkey or a flock of John Woo doves at the side of the road.

 

[Yiazmat]

Or maybe Amar is the retailer.

 

[SnowFlakeCake]

Sorry but how does this Amar guy know?

Dudes a legend, dropped lots of info about GT5 and GT5 on GTPlanet until most people there lost their minds and all the sane people left. He's like a crazy buttocks but for GT.

I hope GT Sports is mainline, adding in bikes because we sure the fuck ain't getting a TT2 anytime soon.

 

[eso76]

Didn't they say there will not be a prologue this gen?

Because there is a "Sports" instead ?

 

[Metfanant]

nope, i envision Kaz doing something like trying to include any, and all motorsports he can...and completely losing the focus of what people want, or not being able to do any particular things great...

 

[benzy]

If they added bikes and Isle of Man, first thing I'm doing is recreating this.

 

[Neuromancer]

Seems legit, whatever it is I'm hoping for a Fall 2015 release. You can never have too many racing games.

 

[paskowitz]

In Project Morpheus.

Edit: Sigh, Benzy beat me to it, and included a gif.

That's one way to look at it. There's also a certain class of cars referred to as sports cars, which is how I interpreted the title, seeing as the game is probably a stop gap towards GT7.

 

[Respawn]

So what *is* GT Sport? A spin-off?

High performance cars only I assume.

 

[paskowitz]

I suddenly want one of these so much more...

 

[Respawn]

Sorry but how does this Amar guy know?

Known him for years [not personally] and when it comes to gt there is no need to question legitimacy. Just accept it. He's earned his medals.

 

[byropoint]

That Gran Turismo preorder was up on their site for at least a month now, I check their store on a regular basis (I'm from Croatia) and never thought of it as anything big, everyone knows a new GT is coming so I thought it was just a preoder placeholder.

 

[Xpliskin]

Damn you lmao

 

[Psycho_Mantis]

GT sport.....only 600pp or greater cars allowed xD

 

[30yearsofhurt]

Amar has been on the money since before GT5. I don't know about here but he's given good oil over at GTPlanet.

 

[bud]

i really, really want gt7 to be good.

 

[RiverBed]

I feel the 'sports' part isn't part of the name but the category of the game. Seeing it is a placeholder game cover, a mistake may have been made when categorizing the assumed product.
Also, about an E3 announcement; wouldn't they want to wait to give DC all the space with its DLCs especially since GT won't be out till another year and a half?

If nothing else, Sony/Official Sony importer are milking this free PR by removing it.

 

[MaDKaT]

Been a while but wasn't there something about PD photographing isle of Mann?

 

[Ganzlinger]

That would be awesome

 

[Caipirinha]

Will my dream of a Paris-Dakar Rally mode in a GT game possibly come to fruition in this hypothesised motorsport version? Or am I fukked?

 

[Metfanant]

That's one way to look at it. There's also a certain class of cars referred to as sports cars, which is how I interpreted the title, seeing as the game is probably a stop gap towards GT7.

GT is already very "sports car" focused...it needs to be more "race car" focused...

 

[Ninja Scooter]

What if it's a special version of Gran Turismo 7 where the entire soundtrack is replaced by Huey Lewis and the News' album "SPORTS"?

 

[Makikou]

Hype Train full power ahead!

 

[Mascot]

Sounds like a Horizon-type spin off to me.

Hey, that's a much better name: Gran Turismo Spin Off

 

[driver116]

Fake or no, I like that name. Gran Turismo Sport that is.

 

[Benclank01]

I would say that this is not "Gran Turismo 7". I would say this is a title exclusively to the Project Morpheus and being like the "Prologue" version of Gran Turismo 7. Because I think Polyphony wanted to test the VR features and the new additions that will come to Gran Turismo 7.
But hey, that's my prediction.

 

[HooYaH]

Gran Turismo Sport.

Game is about Cars vs Bikes vs Boats vs James May.

 

[saladine1]

C'mon fellas, its obvious.

PD are doing a Car Football spinoff, hence the "sport" in the title.

Don't be daft. It's bowling.

*Dreams of Isle of Man TT*

Edit: Sigh, Benzy beat me to it, and included a gif.

I live on the Isle of Man and i'm sure last year it was on the news that Sony were on the island taking pictures etc... of the course for the next Gran Turismo game.

That is it I am off NeoGAF until E3 is done.....also HELL YEAH!

Too late.

You mean too, too late.

Too late.

Forza did it four years earlier
