You gotta think about it l the Japanese way. So much damn hype, not enough being delivered. There’s a reason why they are doing so much demo stuff with reworked physics: they are definitely gauging public reaction and criticisms. If the head of Polyphony doesn’t pull this off, Polyphony will fail, Gran Turismo will be tarnished, Sony and it’s reputation and history will be tarnished, sales of the PS3 will fall and this affect global economies and shareholders, and investors, and all of these people will be let down. Also the family that for generations birthed proud and dedicated “insert last name”, would be let down and the family name would be disgraced. That is not my thinking, but the Japanese way of thinking. In other words, GT5 better be perfect unless The head of Polyphone fancies a life time of shame and jumping in front of trains.
I’ve also heard that with Final Fantasy shipping in March, they want to spread out their “humps” of revenue.
As much as I’m super pissed about this, I’ll wait. I’ve played everything else and I’m still more satisfied driving the same car, on the same track, in GT5P (or the time trial).
Shitty though
