    OK Aussies. I'm tired of hearing these stories. Time to do something about it. What you ask? I don't care, I'm American.

    It's a bad idea on Sony's part to let anything about GT out before the release of the game.

    GT sells based on it's reputation and the long development time has set expectations way too high for it to be as big of a critical success as it probably should be. Kind of like if you were told you would get to meet God but St Peter turned up instead. Sure it would be life changing but you would always have that little bit of disappointment in your mouth.

    If Forza has even one improvement on this demo (something lame like the break light has more bloom) then we will see comparison video's leading up the launch.

    This crap is worse than the Square/Enix "Countdown to a countdown". Don't give me a taste of the physics, a peek at the graphics or a smidgen of the tracks- build a game, test it and release it! What on Earth can possibly taking so long? The only possible explanations are either

    a) They've gone back and made massive upgrades after seeing what the competition now has to offer

    b) Yamauchi's ego is oblivious to the fact that the fanbase isn't going to wait forever while he fiddle-farts around with minutia. GT4 was released in January of 2005, Yamauchi-san. Time to wrap up that sequel!

    Just wait- right as GT5 is almost ready for release, it'll be suddenly delayed and moved to the soon-to-be-released PS4.

    Plunkett, I can explain this easily.

    If Prologue was the concept model, this is the test model before mass production. The car is almost nearly done, far past the concept phase, and almost ready to be let loose. Now they're just running laps, doing the last bit of safety checks, some preliminary hype, and getting the marketing guys ready based on initial public impressions.

    It's a beta.

    Now all they have to do is get the bloody system to run properly.

    Didn't they have problems with PC edition of Fallout 3 DLC? How the hell do they think they're going to manage this? With their hopes and dreams?
