Gran Turismo 6 is heading to the PS3 this fall.

First off, why in the hell did Sony not make this a launch title for the PS4???? I would have bought one for this game. As it stands, I don't plan on getting a PS4 for a year or two after launch. Gonna wait until the first price drop.

First price drop is what, after 2-3 years?

I'll probably get PS4 when it comes out, but not sure what to think about GT6. As you mentioned, it should be a PS4 launch.

I did read that PS4 is gonna launch a new sim/race game series (?) with the PS4. That could be kinda cool.

Install base, and they've been working on it for years.

At least I'll get to play GT6 since I don't plan on getting a PS4, haha

I just hope they figured the menu system out. :-|

I hope they fix a great many things. I'm still unlikely to buy one, GT is the only Sony system-seller for me and it's coming out for PS3 haha

and you have yet to even race me on GT5 :thumbdown:

I haven't played GT5 in a year, or more. There's probably a 37 hour download for it now, is there?
What's your PSN name? YushiSpeed? Bvar? I don't know who's who other than the obvious mca :P

Ya it's been about that long for me too.

I'm setting up a new account.

Drive Club should be out at launch.

I'm really not into racing games but this does look pretty cool.

Pretty sure GT6 is coming out on the PS3 for two reasons...
First, they have probably been working on it for PS3 for years. Probably hard to re-tool to for different hardware at this point.
Second, it'll still sell really well on the PS3. Those people who don't want to drop $450 (or whatever) on a new console may pick up a PS3....which will likely get a decent price cut when PS4 comes out. I'm pretty sure we'll see games coming out for the pS3 a year or two after the launch of 4. They'll want to make money off of both systems.

Pretty much what I said earlier.

At some point there will be the same games releasing on both systems as well.

Finally got around to playing Resident Evil 6. 2 days of that and it's for sale, holy hell way to kill a favourite Capcom!

I'm really looking forward to "The Last of Us". Some pre-views on IGN. Looks amazing!

It really does. Hopefully it lives up to the hype.
