Gran Turismo 6 announced!

GT6 was announced at a 15 year celebration of Gran Turismo at Silverstone today. The game is due for release around Christmas. There has been released a small trailer, and some screen shots as a part of this. We rally fans will be happy to see that the Audi Sport Quattro S1 at last has been included in the game! :)

Doesn't look promising to be honest. Looks like more standard cars and poor car sounds, with no serious indication of livery editors, improved AI or improved visible vehicle damage. If there was a significant upgrade to the AI and livery editors, there would be nothing to gain from not mentioning it during the launch.

I think it'll just be a stop gap between gt5 and the next gen game. A bit like GT4 Prologue.

Either way I'm looking forward to GT6 :) My favorite racing sim :D

GT5 was the biggest disappointment I have ever had. I doubt this will be much better. Forza Motorsport is the better series.

I rather enjoyed GT5 if I'm completely honest :)

Forza is ok but not my favourite.

GT6 previews are not promising to be honest. Still the same poor AI and sounds, no word on any livery editor at all. A great shame as it was once unquestionably my favourite racing game series, bar none.

My thoughts too. Found GT5 to be completely uninspiring with floaty handling and a general lack of decent content. Too often the GT series now seems to focus on the number of cars that are in the game rather than concentrating on quality. THe real nail in the coffin was when I tried using the handbrake on one of the rally stages and discovered that it results in you not being able to accelerate for ages. Far from being a 'Real Driving Simulator' it actually suffers from an unreasonable amount of CPU intervention.

But GT does have every single version of Nissan Skyline/GT-R, Subaru Impreza and Mitsubishi Evo you could ever imagine.

Not only the dodgy handbrake, but seems to suffer from turbo lag; which is ironic as WRCars have anti-lag to avoid this..... :dozey:
