GT5 Delayed


Recommended Posts

Its not abt the genre dude.... There are many gamers who prefer spending 60$ on a COD game over GT5 lol....GT5 is hardcore racing simulator and COD is a n00b friendly shooter that anyone can play and enjoy.. that's why, i think, GT5 can't outsell COD in sales....lol

 

 

Gears 3 delay reason is not Kz3... Gears is far bigger franchise than Killzone and also Kz3 is releasing in Feb not April lol....Where GT5 was releasing on Nov 2 and BO on 9th Nov...

 

Epic wanted to release M.P beta that's why they delayed it..they have given a valid reason for delay unlike PD .. :)

Sony released UC1 in the same month as MW, R2 and LBP in the same month as WaW, UC2 about 10 days before MW2 and R&C in the same fking week. I don't think they care about CoD mania.

It is about the genre man COD maybe noob friendly shooter but it is a shooter and not racing game whereas NFS HP is the main reason i see because as you said NFS is alos another Noob friendly Arcade racing game and i yea it might not overcome COD sales but that is only the because the number of people interested in Simulator Racing is almost 40-50% of those who are in Shooters.

Thats exactly why its not likely to affect GT5 sales much. The targeted audience is difference.

 

And GT5 can outsell BO. Keep in mind that WoW sold around 12 mil on all three platforms, which means less than 5 mil on the ps3 and thus less than GT5p (which was more or less an extended demo). So there is no reason the full game shouldn't be able to outdo a treyarch made CoD.

Oh come on

 

FFS Stop telling GT5 is delayed because of NFS hot Pursuit ...NFS HP release date was announced in E3 n also GT5's..Same with COD BO

So The delay is not because of NFS or COD ...

 

 

:lol: Zodak tries very hard to show that he is not a fan boy..But its a pity he cant hide it :P

Nov 2nd was little early for holiday season to kick in. I was wondering why they would release on nov 2nd and not on 15-23rd for that matter. Nov 3rd week is like peak shopping period here in US. If you launch a game during this week chances are that even some non gamers will also pick up the game, such is the euphoria during thanksgiving in US. People go out and buy SOMETHING/ANYTHING just for the heck of it.

Why not NFS? because at E3 they (PD or Sony) may not have though this will come up with something amazing as the previous ones dint stand up to its standard but now it (NFS) is coming up with something awesome so yea.. :scratchchin:

U seriously believe GT 5 got scared of Hot Pursuit..

Does'nt it sound very funny...

 

Its Gran Turismo ...GT sells twice of wat any NFS sells on PS...Chk GT4 n GT3 sales figures...

The whole different target audience than CoD thing doesnt really pan out. Its like saying people who like FPS and people who like racing games are two distinct groups with little or no crossover when its probably quite the opposite. Its not like people who buy GT wont buy CoD or vice versa.

 

As far as the delay is concerned TBH I cant think of any reason except wanting to avoid the CoD juggernaut. If the delay was game development related it wouldnt have been for 2-3 weeks, not this late in the development cycle.

 

I am not doubting it wont sell. It will. A LOT. But going up against CoD would have cannibalized significant initial sales. There are a lot of people who would have bought one game and waited out the other one (esp people who arent hardcore fans but would have been buyers anyway). Sony thought that game might have been CoD. Makes sense to me.

 

Also LOL @ people thinking its avoiding NFS. NFS is minor league.

NFS is not a minor league man you have no idea how big fanbase it have..it is just they screwed up last few games but this one seems to be a comeback for me..

 

@SA

 

Yea i know it sounds funny but what matters is NFS is a Fun played Arcade game where as GT is one biig Simulator!
