Sup GT fans, 
 
With all the dedication PD is putting on the bi-monthly patches for GT5, and the promise that standard cars will be turned into premium cars, should PD focus on making GT5 the perfected driving sim over the next coming year(s)? 
 
Or should they push out Gran Turismo 6 with the foundation they have with with GT5?  They could make GT6 the proper swan-song for the PS3 and it would sell at least the same number as GT5.  Too be honest, I kinda want PD to focus on pushing out new cars and content for GT5 as the foundation is already solid.  All they'd need to do is keep pushing out updates and I'd gladly pay for car packs or even expansion discs that contain more crap.  Sure it would break tradition of two GT games per generation but maybe GTPSP can substitute?   
 
With the Standard to Premium coming out, it gives GT5 well over 1,000 proper cars in high detail...what else could they give us?  Every year they could come out with a pack that has all the years cars and some surprises (a new X1 model).  They could add more tracks and the new yearly F1 cars.  What else would people want? 
 
New events?  Well we got those every month from the seasonal stuff and maybe the updates can add proper ones down the road? 
 
So what say you?  Should PD focus on keeping GT5 the top selling and most popular racing game this generation?  Or just work on Gran Turismo 6 and cash out with another 8-10 million sales while giving the PS3 a proper goodbye?  

Perfect GT5 instead. I think they'll piss of a hell of a lot of GT5 purchasers if GT6 is "the game your game could be like". I could really care less about GT6 and it following tradition; I'd rather have them redesign it on a new system. I don't think they would push that many copies even if it pisses off only 1/5 of the GT5 purchasers
 
Looking at GT3-GT4 on the PS2, GT3 was a port of the old PS1 engine at the early point in the PS2's lifetime (note the sudden and rapid endless acceleration once any car hits 270mph, present in both GT2 and GT3), whereas GT4 drove, felt and looked like a new game and lacked those exploits. Not to mention that it came in the latter portion of the PS2's "real" lifespan. 
 
If we assume standard logic, GT5 came far too late in the PS3's lifespan for them to realistically develop another game, and following that logic, a new engine. They'd be far better served making a game for the PS4.

I want new tracks, or old tracks from GT4 in HD, like the high speed oval and a fucking drag strip 
I also wouldn't mind if they could get basically

The menus and general design of that game is really messed up and a lot of it isn't something you can just change with a patch.. I'd say they should just focus on GT6 because if they keep updating 5 it will take forever.

Wonder whether they would be able to make a GT6 by PS4, cause goodness me, they took their time for GT5. 
 
I still don't understand how Sony could let it happen that it took so long for their major race franchise to make it onto their new console. It was a major cause of the slow start off of the PS3, IMO.

I hope they keep updating and 'perfecting' 5.

Perfect 5. 
 
Use that knowledge to make 6 amazing.

Might as well put 6 on the PS4. It's not like you can really make the game look or feel any better on current generation hardware. You could make the challenges more fun, but that's a design choice, not a hardware limitation.

" @GiantBeddo: It paid off though.  In only six weeks GT5 became the top selling racing game this generation and the top selling PS3 exclusive.  Combined sales of GT5P and GT5 are well over 10,000,000 units.  PD made some serious bank this generation. "

" @xyzygy: Are you drunk?  First six weeks GT5 is out pacing GT4, and it's still selling strong in Europe.  F1 is starting up and PD paid for a lot of GT5 ads, so it'll keep selling.  GT5 thus far is outselling GT4 over the same time period.   What other racing game has sold over 6 million in just six weeks?  Gran Turismo 3, and that's all.   PD even said GT5 is pure profit.  GT5P sales were more than enough for costs for GT5.  PD sold a demo that racked up well over 5 million units over 3 years.  GT5 sold over 6 million in just the first six weeks.

CA$H MONEY "

PD needs to take their time to pack in tons of content into GT6.  I really doubt they would be able to make it fit into this generation's life cycle, and would rather them make it all it could be than to release another GT5.  At this point in time, there needs to be two teams working on GT (current and new.)  GT5 has been in my playstation since launch and I am honestly getting bored of it; there just isn't much to do now.
 
I remember being legitimately let down and disappointed when the car and track lists came out.  PD needs to INCLUDE MORE TRACKS, not devote 40% of their resources on modeling a million nissans, and have more events.  There is absolutely no excuse to leave out so many awesome tracks from previous games.
 
GT6 just needs a longer, more involved career mode, and I really do not think they can make this happen with any amount of quality on the PS3.

Make GT6 a launch title for the next console.
