GT Mobile pushed aside for GT5?

via Computer and Video Games


Suspicions of Sony having canned GT Mobile for PSP have arisen once again after months of silence on the title, and its recent removal from certain retailers' online pre-order lists.

When speaking to a Sony UK correspondent today, we were told: "Polyphony is currently focusing all its resources on developing GT5 for PS3."

While this does not confirm that GT Mobile has been scrapped, it certainly insinuates that GT Mobile has been put on the backburner while the obviously crucial PS3 game takes the lead.

This was, after all, exactly what series creator Kazunori Yamauchi, said just last month - that while he's very much working on Gran Turismo Mobile, it won't be out till after Gran Turismo 5 releases.

GT Mobile's future has been balancing on a tightrope for some time now. Originally planned for release in 2005, its release was thenput back "indefinitely" in September 2006.

We reckon the PSP game will be revived sometime next year. But only if the PS3 games ships as intended later this year.

Its got to be too good to be true its a sony game, the only reason i bought a psp in all honesty. BOO sony.

the homebrew scene's heart is kinda still beating so it's not a horrible loss having a psp without gt mobile...
but really, did anyone expect this one to come out? come on, it's polyphony digital, POLYPHONY DIGITAL.
i'm still surprised GT4 came out...
