GT5p will keep me going till MotorStorm 2, then that will keep me going to GT5, then that will keep me going to MotorStorm 3, then that will keep me going to GT6p, then that.... well you get the point.

Loads of games out soon, prologue is fine for now.

1.3 - Burnout will keep me going...
once the island is available and the in-game custom soundtracks come I can hold off until GT5. I know Prologue is a deep game but 40 bucks is kinda steep for a half game. I know you GT guys are more than happy with prologue but I think I'll wait to purchase GT5.

I've never been a fan of sims.
I understand why people like sim games but My Sc430 doesn't drive anyting like It does in raching games( i know i take it to the track)
I fear that GT5 wont be out till summer 09. The developers of /GT are almost never on time.

I hope it's a little less then a year then a little more though. Still ... I can't wait to see what another year of polish and content additions will do to what we've already seen.

1.6 - i'm really thinking of getting this game now
i wanted to wait until GT5 but since that will be my first GT game ever, i think maybe i'll get this to test out and get me ready for the full thing.

plus i think i'd rather be disappointed and pay $40 than being disappointed and pay $60 when the full game comes out.

i think i'll just download so i can have everything right on the system.

Well, ... , won't get boring I believe. I have 35 games in my gf queue. And that just includes titles released until 06/08. (well, and I own 22 others now). So, say, I give each about 2 weeks to play, that would keep me busy for more then a year - darn, and it doesn't even include the must haves (they are on my shopping list anyhow). Time, Time!

hopefully this will stop the retards from saying "OMFG WE HAVE TO PAY FOR A DEMO THEN TURN RIGHT AROUND AND PAY FOR THE REAL THING??!!?111?"

Its not "right around the corner". Theres' ample playtime between the release of both games, and plenty to do in GT5P so that it doesn't feel like a 'demo' as they put it.

GT5P now, GT5 later.

Think of GT5P as somewhat of a... "Prologue" to GT5.

GT5 might be the only GT on the PS3...Atleast till the end of its life

I think GT6 will be a launch game for the PS4 in 6-7 years. I could be wrong

Depends if they want to milk out some more money by doing what they did with GT4.
Anyway, I hope they get it right this time. Previous games were waaay too unbalanced IMO.

That just means the 2009 lineup will be as powerful if not more powerful than the 2008 lineup for the PS3!

I can hear it already..... omgo why buy the demo when the game is just around the corner.

1) 1 year wait is still 1 year wait
2) gt5 prologue is has enough contend to make it 75 percent of a typical racer.

12 - Oh well
Looks like 6 tracks and 71 veichles,no weather or damge will just have to be enough for PS3 only owners this year.I guess you should be grateful after last year.

Then again when you've been munching on dog food for most of last year i guess a bit of sausage must taste amazing.

"PLEASE SIR CAN I HAVE SOME MORE?" lol

On the plus side at least theres some thing else to now wait for ;)

Note to self: phew! almost got suckered into jumping the gun on buying a ps3. Wait till its got at least one full 90+ game before you even think about getting one. Use some of the money saved to get ssbb for your wii 95% metacritic wholesome long lasting goodness.

18 - Well, guess I'll be waiting until then.
I just find the idea of paying $40 bucks for a less than half baked GT5 hard to stomach. It will have a fraction of the cars, maybe 3% of the content, and quite possibly inferior in the visuals and physics department.

I can't wait for this full version though. Never bought a wheel for a game before, but for this I'm considering it.

you say this

quite possibly inferior in the visuals and physics department.

have you ever played a GT game? Thats what there known for! Unless what you mean by physics is the physics of a bent bumper

i hear 1080p and 60FPS

sounds like a looker and if you played the demo you would know it is

18.2 - I've played every singl Gran Turismo game released...
and I have both the GTHD and Japanese PSN Prologue demos.

When I say that, it's more of a compliment to PD, because if GT5 is a year away, then I EXPECT the graphics, physics, and content of the full version game to be better than this preliminary release we have now.

To suggest that the final game would be anything less or similar to Prologue somewhat baffles me.

19 - some of you are not fully understanding what prologue "IS"
but before i explain it,i'm just letting you know.....

"i'm getting it april 17."I downloaded GTHD.I downloaded the GT5 demo from the japanese store.i love it.and the music just "FITS" perfectly.

but those that are waiting for the full game will be disappointed.

GT5P "IS" GT5.all you're going to be waiting for is all the content on one 50 to 100gig disc that "WILL HAVE ALREADY BEEN" released from now until they believe they are done in installments.and even then,they will still release more content.

some of you don't remember,but alot of gamers complained about sony releasing GTHD in parts.and "you the gamer" deciding what you wanted to buy.but they canned the project(GTHD).but not the idea.there will be packs released later with more cars,more tracks,etc.for a price.sony hasn't changed what they originally were going to do anyway.GT5 will be spread over this whole year.the "P" is just part 1.subsection A-E.

"so you might as well buy it now."

because it will be the same content you will see throughout the year with a "FEW" surprises leading up to that "ONE" disc.and it lets sony test it's online servers in the process.

get GT5P now,the best "driving simulator out there."

19.1 - Everything you just said is PURE speculation.
Nobody related to Sony in any fashion has EVER said anything similar to what you just did. Where did you get the idea that PD would just release add-on content for Prologue as they went along?

Maybe I'm reading that wrong, but a big clue to why you're probably wrong is that the true resolution for Prologue isn't quite 1080p. It's not 16:9 anyway, I can't remember the exact resolution.

20.2 - nah
the most unrealistic racing game is something like Burnout or PGR

when PGR is used in show rooms to test drive a car then you can talk about GT being unrealistic

o hope your kidding beause of your not then you are uninformed about the history of the GT franchise

i guess ppl hated Halo for hype but whatever fits the truth around your reality

21.2 - So a pair of fanboys come in here to stroke themselves...
Most of your cronies either got wise, left, or both...so what are you two doing?

Once again reminding us that you folks wear your insecurity on your sleeve, you condemn these games that you allegedly have ZERO interest in, as if you're trying to convince yourselves(I assure you that you're not convincing anyone else).

Don't you all know by now that the stupidity you spew falls on deaf ears? By now, well over two yeas into this gen, you surely must, yet you haven't moved on to your next trivial hobby. Why bother?

Go peddle your petty little crusades to people who care(i.e. your extremist associates), because nobody here does. Don't try to pull the "I don't care what people think" card either, because you wouldn't be here on a public form arguing the point.
