Amazon lists Gran Turismo 5's release date as Dec 29

Link - Don't know if that date will hold but sounds like they are planning on getting it just in the year 2009.

At this point, I had just assumed it was going to come out for the PS4.

I was reading that if a store knows what month but doesn't know the actual date they use the last day... but i think december is 30 days not 29?

December is 31 days. That and the 29th is a Tuesday...which is typically the release day for new games.

Unfortunately, it's still the last Tuesday of the year, so it's most likely a placeholder.

I'll believe it when I see the game in stores.

I can't imagine they'd have the game miss Christmas by 4 days. Maybe more like Holiday 2010, especially since they didn't show anything new at E3 this year (right?).

Yeah, that date makes no sense. May as well just release it in January or February.

I won't get excited until I'm pushing the disc into my PS3.

Did Sony ever explain why it's taking so long? Can we assume GT6 will come out faster?

might as well call it 'gran turismo forever'...

Kaz (lead designer at Polyphony Digital) said they wanted to have full GT done by E3 but Sony was pushing them to finish GT Mobile for PSP so they could release GT mobile on the same day as the PSP go.

My dream is to have porsche in the game. If not in the game at first then atleast put in later as DLC.
