James weren’t we promised the final GT5 release date by the end of this month???
Well it’s the 30th in my time and still nothing on GT5 Release Date…
How much of a longer wait now? Will it be next week?

it’s not the delay it self.. but the way you’re managing all that
http://twitter.com/PlayStationEU/statuses/27250357927
alrea dy unrespected deadline for more times now, I think it’s just unprofessional to hide and ignore the frustration of your community
it’s just to come out and say something more than “soon” “expect” “believe” .. we already lost a lot of trust in this situation, and all this confusion only distract to the great project that GT5 still IS.

The lack of communication regarding GT5 really isn’t cool. I understand the SCEE blog guys can only pass on the information they get, when they get it, but SOMEONE at SCEE must know what’s happening with GT5. Frankly, the way Sony has been handling all things GT5 related is bordering on unforgivable, and has most definitely been unprofessional.

If you set out to anger your community by not even coming out with a new gt5 release date, you sure have done a good job. Very disappointing.

Posted on 30 October, 2010 at 3:11 pm by Thirsty-Duck
Wow, This community is full of drama queens. Gentlemen, We’re all excited for GT5, but whoring about it all over the place won’t get you anywhere. Do everyone a favour and get some patience.

Posted on 30 October, 2010 at 4:06 pm by NRX1000
Thirsty-Duck, people are allowed to voice their opinion and vent their anger here, it is a public blog after all. Regarding GT5, the “drama queens” as you so eloquently put it, have a lot of patience but that patience is now running out. A five year game development period and endless [DELETED] from Sony regarding the game and release dates tends to have that affect on people.
12
Posted on 30 October, 2010 at 4:18 pm by NRX1000
Take this with a pinch of salt guys, but I’ve just been told the new GT5 release date is December 20th. I’m not sure if that’s a JP/UK/US date.

Does this include the DLC or is that still pending?

@12 And who divulged this information onto you “just now”? Since there’s been no official word, I’ll call your bluff. You did say take it with a pinch of salt though.

Still no word on GT5, sorry but what the [DELETED] is wrong with Sony’s marketing department?!
Is there a reason for this silence?

Hi James, will there be a blog post about Castle Crashers coming out on 03/11/10? Thats the date on the Behemoth blog. http://devblog.thebehemoth.com/?p=3279 Thanks

Posted on 31 October, 2010 at 7:40 pm by Project2insanity
Please, people, quit whining about GT5. I’ve been waiting as long as anyone else for it but there was no ‘promise’ for an update this month, the statement reads ‘expect’. You have two options available: Sony give you a date today which will likely end in another delay, or they wait until it’s definite.
Fair enough it is frustrating but remember this lack of new information is to avoid you being frustrated further than you are currently through a random lie of a date. If there’s no new information, they won’t pretend there is.

Posted on 31 October, 2010 at 10:25 pm by wbrinkman
GT5 was supposed to be launching not too far behind prologue, which got released in 2007, and it looks like it could tip over into 2011 now. Surely you can understand patience is running low.

Posted on 31 October, 2010 at 10:41 pm by meuhFR
.I’m pretty [Removed] by this silence about a release date.
November’s coming and nothing about this vapor game.
With so many money spent in communication you can give a date or at least explain the delay.
One more proof of disrespect for the players and my next console will be a microsoft.

Well you have done it Sony, made me do the unthinkable i have just brought an XBOX 360 so i can play FORZA 3 least that way i can drift online with my mate Cheers never thought i would own a XBOX
45
Posted on 1 November, 2010 at 7:48 am by Skookie30
O_o i never thought just 1 game & ppl gets really angry & even get a crapbox-360 because the game been delayed, I‘m giveing SCEE stick sometimes for lack of games on our EU-store.
LBP-2 is also delayed while i too was Not please but i will wait & play other games like RDR-DLC like last night.
46
Posted on 1 November, 2010 at 8:31 am by HazelAM
just remember how long it took them to announce the original eu release date after the us and japan date was announced at e3, why is anybody surprised nobody at sony is telling us anything, when they do finally announce any new release dates you can be sure they won’t be talking about the eu release date.
we’ll be left waiting once again.
and they said the delay at their end was only like three days? that’s why less than a week before the original date they still don’t have a new date, are they going to announce a new release date less than two weeks before the date?
i doubt it.
there’s one more thing i want to say.
2011.

Posted on 1 November, 2010 at 9:53 am by killzonexx
GT5 is delayed only for the reason that the game was made for the previous firmware, since sony updated it for jailbreak gt developers delayed it becuase sony gonna add more patches against jailbreak
and they want that sony patches jailbreak as much as possible becuase gt5 costs a lots of millions, and they are scared the game will be downloaded to much so they lose money.,

Posted on 1 November, 2010 at 10:00 am by Dahlsim
Enough is enough.
A lot of people bought a PS3 just for GT5, now just show some respect and give us a release date and/or a demo, i think that’s the least you can do.
50
Posted on 1 November, 2010 at 10:05 am by killzonexx
@ Dahlsim sorry to reply on this
but why on earth you buy a ps3 for gt5?
why dont you first wait before the game is out and then buy it?
