At this year's Tokyo Games Show it was announced that Gran Turismo HD would rise to full product status rather than lingering in tech-demo hell. So, hot on the heels of this revelation, we tracked down Polyphony Digital president Kazunori Yamauchi at his headquarters to find out more from the horse's mouth...

"Looking back to the first Gran Turismo in 1997, it included 100 hours of condensed gameplay, and you needed to play it to the full extent to get all the items in the game. With GT HD, we thought it was maybe time to take a different approach, with casual gaming accessibility. Players can connect and play for maybe 10 to 30 minutes per day. That's one of the reasons why we chose not to call it Gran Turismo 5."
