Animated Pit Crews for Gran Turismo 5

September 23rd, 2009 by Jordan

Gran Turismo 5 wasn’t mentioned during Sony’s keynote address at the Tokyo Game Show, but news is already starting to trickle out of the GT5 booth at the show. Our first peek comes from this guy who appears to have uploaded a clip from his cell phone. The quality is about as bad as it gets, but you can clearly see that quite a few cars are playable, including the Ferrari 458 Italia. The most exciting thing we can confirm right now, however, is the fully animated pit crews which can be seen working on a car as it enters the pits. I’ve grabbed the best shot I could find and posted it above, but you can watch for the scene yourself in the video around 8:00.

Stay tuned for Sony’s next press conference coming up in the next few hours!

    If you watch the whole video you can see the new replay angle inside the cockpit, Jordan!

    There is speculation that the Ferrari has damage in that video!

  4. Martin Says:

    Yup that angle is great!

    Also it is damage, you can see its crumbled, tho maybe its more noticeable for me cause im using a 52″ LCD as a comp screen lol

  7. d3br34k5 Says:

    A point has been brought up elsewhere regarding the crumpling of carbon fibre and how that doesn’t happen.

    I think it’s damage as well though. :D

  8. Pingwhen Says:

    no its noticeable, saddly im going to bed so i can wake up to amazing news. if i dont see a date on gtplanet i have lost all faith in gt5 :( please please announce it all.

  9. Pingwhen Says:

    d3br34k5 the doors are not carbon fiber. or atleast i doubt they are. most of the car is not carbor fiber.

    The 458 is all aluminum body

    The cool thing with gt5 is that it will aim to recreate race days so to hear that animated pit crews… in my eyes, that was a given. If GT5 doesn’t get a release date then i am very close to losing hope in this franchise. I will concentrate my efforts elsewhere in life.
