Okay so I was on Flipboard on the train to work this morning and I saw an article that a Sony rep let slip that GT6 was heading to PS3 with no plans for PS4.
I believe it was a Forbes Article. http://www.forbes.com/sites/johngaudiosi/2013/02/24/sony-exec-confirms-gran-turismo-6-coming-to-playstation-3/
There are other articles supporting this. Would this explain why it was Drive Club and not GT that were at the recent PS4 announcement? Your thoughts?
GT6 for PS3?
Is GT6 copy righted? Can I look it up online?
Wait, GT6 is already close to completion or at least already being worked on? What happens when GT6 is delayed a bunch like GT5 was, or I think it was?
This sounds like the Rockstar approach to GTA V. They Could just re-release it on PS4, but whatever. ~ That'll be like 2023, at the end of the PS4 lifecycle.
Makes sense if you think about it. The jump to a new generation took them so long, so I can see them wanting to make use the of the engine and assets for at least one more game. It only took 3 years from GT3 (2001) to GT4 (2004), which were both on the PS2, so I would expect a similar time frame for GT5 (2010) to GT6 if it does wind up being a PS3 game. It looks like they may have also learned their lesson about announcing the game a century before it will actually come out.
GT5 is currently the best selling racing game this generation. Second to none. Only makes sense to boost those sales.
Yea, taking a cue from Forza. It's a lot easier to innovate GT5 on PS3, than start over on PS4..
