GT5 Creator opens up
Grand Turismo 5 is on its way and Yamauchi, the creator of GT speaks up of what goodies are to come:
Talking about the two vaporware titles, Yamauchi confirmed they’re both still on the radar. He said, “Gran Turismo for Boys will most likely become a service within Gran Turismo 5, and for the PSP I don’t think we’ll be able to make this year.”
When asked what’s next for the Gran Turismo following GT5 Prologue’s European launch, Yamauchi said that, “first off, GT5 prologue is only at the halfway point to its completion. So in the next update there will be many more features added to the game. From that point to Gran Turismo 5, there’s just going to be a lot more quantity in terms of cars and of the tracks as well.”
GameSpot asked if the development of GT5 Prologue meant a longer wait for the eventual Gran Turismo 5, and Yamauchi answered, “This is true, but creating games on the PS3 is so much more difficult than we imagined at first and it took us three years to get here, and I hope our fans understand that we’re trying our best and will be moving forward [on GT5] from here on.”
Yamauchi also stated that his team at Polyphony Digital is and will be completely engrossed in Gran Turismo for the foreseeable future. He said, “We want to do other things, and I have some ideas but we don’t have any resources and time to do anything else right now, we’re focusing on getting Gran Turismo evolved and moving forward and also [Gran Turismo] for the PSP as well.”
