Gaming business news site MCV is claiming to have received word from a “source close to Sony” that Gran Turismo 5’s implementation of 3D technology and support for the new PlayStation Move controller are the reasons for the game’s extended development time. While 3D support has already been confirmed, until now PS Move rumors had been fueled by nothing more than some extremely vague statements by Kazunori Yamauchi early last month to gaming magazine PSM3:
“We’re always attuned to new technologies. If there are display devices or peripherals that seem interesting, I’m sure we’ll work to support them.”
I didn’t give those comments much weight when they came around the first time, but if MCV’s source is correct, there may indeed be something in the works. With just 22 days now until E3 kickoff, hopefully we won’t have to wait much longer to find out exactly what that is… Thanks to DonZonda for the tip!
See more articles on 3D and Kazunori Yamauchi.
“GT Move”? I prefer jock-off Wii
Know what. If sony delays gt5 any more for this crap, i’ll just cut my losses and get forza and be done with it!
Way to go Sony! Great marketing scheme there!
It will keep the wife happy while I play GT5…eeer sorry I thought I was a toy for the ladies!!
Obligatory (well, not reallyobligatory, I just feel like doing it. Too much coffee.) spam Monty Python reference has follows:
“and now for something completely different……..”
And the award for most irony in a PS3 Move rumor thread goes to….
Dustyr, for a wonderful rendition of the classic oratory: “Complaints We’ve Allready Heard about Other People’s Complaining.”
Congrats!
Thanks muchly! I know you guys all say that those without wheels are missing out.. I’ll have to Frankenstein something together when (WHEN!!!) GT5 comes out.
@ Adrian
I have a G25, and have had about 6 other wheels in the past- I used to use them for mainly PC so I got a solid PC desk and hooked the wheel right to that. The desk was right in front of a wall so the pedals could be braced to be very solid with some pieces of wood or a couple bricks set up against the wall and the pedals set against that. The pedals didn’t move. Now I have moved. I have my 52″ TV on a dresser that stands about 30″ tall.. In front of that I have a small table with my G25 mounted. The table is 30″ wide, 28″ tall, and 18″ deep. The table was shorter, but I made it taller with some bricks under the feet. The table is about 20″ away from the dresser the TV is on. I have the shifter also mounted to the table and the pedals underneath. I have some peices of wood in front of the pedals that equal about 16″ so the pedals, with the wood and carpet grabbers- are solid and they do not move. **Important**—> I have a 28 pound weight sitting on the center of this small table right in front of the G25, this makes the whole settup extremely solid. The table doesn’t move when the forcefeedback jerks against the table.. Without that weight it would be unstable.. I use a comfortable kitchen chair with armrests for stability- a computer or office chair with wheels would work, but you’d have to use something to keep it from swivelling and rolling. This table/chair setup was basically free (already had the stuff), and it works perfectly- probably better than some cheap racing seats. If you didn’t have a table lying around with those dimensions, you could easily make one for next to nothing.. If you race in a livingroom or something it wouldn’t be hard to put the table away in a different room and set it up quickly for racing. If you don’t want to or can’t spend the cash on a dedicated racing seat- make one from stuff around your house. You’ll get the same affect without spending the $$.
Sept 24 2010 will be the release date. If you don’t want move don’t buy it. If you want to cry still about gt5 not being in your hands then you go make you own real driving sim and when it’s not out in 5 years then we can all bitch about you on a fourm.
All I am saying is say something new or don’t say anything at all because no one cares if you are unhappy that there is nothing going on in your life so gt5 has to fill the large void that NORMAL PEOPLE do not have.
Time for new newz!
Adrain go and get a playseat and a logitech wheel , I just got the playseat from eBay cost me £300 but well worth it cos I’m a big race fan iv only got a small room to , even my miss’s loves playin on them now , bonus for me cos she didn’t want me to get 1 , bring on e3 and gt5 release date , untill then I’m playin dirt2 then formula 1 2010 when it comes out with it’s dynamic weather bring it on
We don’t need this move crap , I want to hear about the rally stages , not much has bin said about this and nothing has bin sin ov it spart from a rally car on a normal race track , bring on e3 show me some offroad
@Rasmus
I’m hesitant to get a wheel because my place doesn’t have that much room. Can you describe a little of your set up? My idea is that each time I want to play gt5, I’ll have to go get the wheel, set it up, move furniture, etc. I’d love to get a vision racer, but at $1000 I’m happy to sit with a controller for now. What do you do?
Okay, a little off-topic here, but when we’re talking about wheels:
I couldn’t agree more. A steering wheel is NECESSARY for really feeling the game. Basically, everyone who’s a fan of GT should get a steering wheel for GT5.
And the Driving Force GT isn’t all that. You should instead pay that little extra and then go for the Logitech G25 or G27 (much the same, except the G27 is newer and a bit better, so you should be able to get the G25 a bit cheaper). I’ve owned a Logitech G25 for 1½ years and it’s been a pleasure driving with it, though I mostly use it to race PC sims like iRacing, rFactor and GTR2.
^^ @ ElieTheBear
I would like to get a wheel; but at this rate, i’m scared the Driving Force GT will be obsolete by the time GT5 launched! ;-)
@ Urielxx
I also played GT 1 2 3 and 4 with a controller… I just got the driving force gt steering wheel… and GT5 Prologue… and I am ashamed for having played GT series without a wheel… Now it is like I am playing GT 23… so for everybody that play GT with a controller go get a wheel it is day and night gameplay ….priceless!!
I Don’t care about this stupid “MOVE” thing nor 3D
seriously its dumb how this Kaz dude has been teasing us
just realease the game i have my PS3 waiting there just for GT5 i dont even need a steering wheel all i have is my controller i been playing GT series with a controller since GT1 so come on release it we all look like morons waiting for GT5 to come out i reserved it payed 5 bucks and still they dont know when its going to be released…
whats that? wii 2 controller?
And another statement from an “insider”…..useless imo.
Not that i critisize insiders but after so many years of waiting they (Polyphony, Sony) should just bring out some real facts and trustfull information to their fans.
The problem isn’t waiting, it is the very bad way of spreading information about GT5 over the last years like “we can release it anytime…”, “it arrives sooner then you thought..” or “GT5 will come shortly after GTpsp”. Also the “facts” which turned out to be a mistranslation. It is almost ridiculous and it is a shame! What else should people think than “Seems like another Duke Nukem Forever”. It is almost impossible to trust any information about GT5 until you hold it in your hands. I know GT5 is going to be awesome i know Polyphony is doing a superb job but imo they destroy a lot whith these “half-baked” facts/information and i dont know why they let all this happen.
looking forward to E3…greetz
Would be a potentially good way to interact with a track editor function.
Don’t understand why the game needs to be delayed this long if all it’s about now is the 3D technology and the playstation move controller. Why not release the game now and then release a patch to support the playstation move as a free patch?
I know head tracking is cool but are people really planning on strapping this thing to their head?? I mean.. plus for 3D TVs you have to wear a pair of 3D glasses.. is this Sony’s grand plan to make us all look like a bunch of complete morons?? XD
totally useless….
I just cant wait E3 and see it 4 my self!
Hope GT5 comes after E3 and before TGS…
and yes those who say move for gt5 is pointless is right..
but the feature with head tracking is awsome! turn your head! eyes can still look at the TV :)
they will work it in their somewhere. Think about it.
they are holding GT5 bakc for a few bits and to make sure it doesn’t flog the ,arket held with FF and bfbc2 etc… They want it to sell PS3’s, and so if you need a PS3, the game and the move thing for parts tehn they get more money.
The PS department of Sony’s budget probs looks like this
Money earners for jan-junFF, GoW, BFBC2
money earners for jul-dec – GT5
I just hope it’s not one of those rumors that sometimes get spread to test market interest. I was kidding earlier, but if enough people keep saying they want to use it for one function or another, there may very well be yet another delay has sony and PD try to implement such ideas to boost Move sales, regardless of how usefull or or faulty such ideas might be in reality.
What if…. the Move will be used in some accordance with the tuning aspect of the cars in your garage?
For example, you enter said garage after purchasing a coilover setup and turbo kit for your Skyline and tweak the settings of the adjustable parts with the Move.
Adjusting height, spring rate, boost, working with the engines, tires, body damage (fixing body panels, replacing parts), adding custom parts, removing interior pieces and so forth.
Giving you a hands-on approach to how you customize your car, and if they make it look good, it could be more exciting than the current tuning options.
I’m sure i am just dreaming, but i believe that would be an excellent way of adapting a new technology that could have more possibilties than a Wiimote.
All the same, I wouldn’t mind if this rumor turned out to be just that: a rumor.
O boy this is whatnot was cancelled for.. Ughh
Somewhere up there /\ there was mention of it being used for painting or washing your car.
I do believe if Gt5 is delayed to allow me to wash my f***ing car I shall be boycotting it from the off (ala nose, face, cutting, spite style).
Even head tracking it pretty much pointless, it might enhance the experience, but it won’t be crippled without it.
As a Project Manager I’d have put the kybosh on most of this shiat a long time ago, it’s not critical to the release, and in fact would boost ongoing support to have it introduced as no-cost downloads. Bad project, bad marketing. Move on Polophony and get it out.
Actually, the only sense this project makes in terms of overrun is that they ran into a heap of issues during testing and are using small peripheral enhancements to delay whilst a core issue is resolved – that would make sense in terms of the uber-delay that this has experienced. That or it’s government sponsored…
One person mentioned something worthwhile, Photo Mode. There might be some use for the Move in that, although the controller works just fine…
Another way it could be used is as steering and gas/brake at the same time since (as someone has stated) Move uses 3d tracking. Yes it would be retarded for hardcore gamers like us but you never know.
I am however praying to the giant video game nerd in the sky that Move wont be used in the end.
headtracking is the only thing that resembles anything that makes any sense.. Otherwise support for this thing is completely stupid and a waste of TIME- something we’ve been using too much of already waiting for GT5. RELEASE GT5!! Forget these stupid gimmicks!
Hi to everyone. There is no point to this device, it will not add anything to the game. for example, the handbrake idea, if you are using a wheel how practical is it going to be attempting to use the move device? not very in my opinion.
Anyways, that is my opinion.
Peace out!
It must be so that people can simulate using a cell phone while driving, as opposed to actually using your cell phone while playing…
Here is two videos of the newest demo. Enjoy

This ‘delay’ for MOVE and 3D seems like an excuse more than anything but I wouldn’t rule out Sony’s hand at implementing these 2 things while waiting for the cheaper PS3s (where they are actually profitable) to be available on mass. E3 is around the corner, we’ll find out info then. 3D for me can be cool but I’m not going out to buy a 3D TV right away. MOVE in this game I still am clueless on how they’ll implement it, and why. I’ll be getting MOVE regardless for it’s own things, just hope it doesn’t feel tacked on to GT5.
WHAT A SURPRISE… *Laughs hysterically at inside joke.*
People are so pessimistic here :P. But I read some ones comment earlier up here (sorry i cant remember who it was, its lost in the wall of comments that this page is) and they mentioned it as a camera tracking thing, now that’d be an awesome feature, using it as a moveable camera, use the pad on the controller to move around the track, and twist and move in and out to zoom and pan. Would be extremely smooth and lovely. Just a shame that’ll probably never happen, and we’re most likely to be stuck with the same old, “the camera goes here, and nowhere else.. and we’ll end up with a million of the same replays but with different speeds/lines ofc). Also sticking a move to my head to have head tracking is not something I would stoop down to, just to look sideways…
Windshield wipers? Cigarette lighters? Radio knobs?
I can see the Move used for that.
Hahahaha, some of these comments are the best ones EVER on GTPlanet :D
Seriously though, if it can be used to wash your car, like with a sponge, do you then have to put soap on the blue thing? :P and do I have to buy the soap myself or will it be included in a small bottle? Please Sony, tell me, tell me!
@ BerlinoBear: Please don’t get offended by this, but when I read your “I have something else my wife can play with while I play GT5…..”, I was very certain the next thing would be “My dick”, haha. Sorry, couldn’t resist. Still, congratulations. ;)
@ Erik: “I’d rather be the guy who sweeps the pavement outside the motor stadium.” – hilarious, my friend, hilarious! :D
@The Masfer
man, i laugh hard at your comment…. rsrsrs i´the image came on my mind.
We´ll be able to change tyres and do some engine workarounds… Yeah. rsrsrs…
SO THAT MEANS that all recent demos are the part of final product. (graphics, physics, features,etc).
What a surprise.
The only reason this could be good is if it improves the head tracking but then everyone would look like a complete idiot
I highly doubt Move implementation is delaying the game. It sure demands some dev time, but not that much.
My opinion is that Move is not implemented for wheel users. It’s implemented to improve gameplay for DS3 players.
Maybe with some elegant way to access menus, to look at your cars in your garage, toy with photomode or whatever. Nothing substantial but nice touches.
@Erik
its probably going to be to do with head tracking its not as compact as some of the things on the market but for a racing sim its a must have item dont knock it till you’ve tried it
Okay, first of all I don’t think that the Move will be a part of Gran Turismo at all. Maybe you can race with it if you want to, like using the x-button for gas and the arrows for turning (but why if you have the ds3-controller?) but I honestly don’t think that Gran Turismo will have any special feature for the Move.
And here is why:
1. Handbrake. That would require you to hold this piece of crap in the air and race only with one hand on the wheel, and then you’re supposed to wave a bit with the… crap… to use the handbrake. It will not only look stupid as hell, it will also feel very very wrong. And whenever you need an extra hand on the steering wheel (you might want to shift gear at least once during a race?) you’ll have to drop the move and see it fall to the floor and roll behind the sofa and whoops no more handbrake for you. So no, it will not happen. (And if it does I shall strike down upon Move with great vengeance and obliterate it from the surface of the Earth)
2. Decorating the cars (with paint etc). That would look like a disaster. Seriously, unless you like the concept of grafiti on cars, there is no way you can do anything that looks not too bad with the Move controller. Try this to see what I mean: Open paint or photoshop and try to draw a straight line using the pen tool and the mouse. See? Now, the Move control is probably not even close to as sensitive as the average mouse is (the strenght of the Move is that it works in three dimensions, where the mouse only works in two) so painting cars using the Move might possibly be the worst idea ever in the history of mankind. Alright, except for some really stupid ideas, but I bet it’s at least on the top 100 chart.
3. Washing the cars. No. Well, the rest of the game is gonna be so much more exciting in comparison to a handwash feature, but there is no other point than that.
4. Your friends can be pit stop mechanics. Yay. Fun for them, they get to watch you race for ten minutes while they’re holding an awkward stick in their hand waiting for you to pull in for a stop so they can wave the stick a couple of times in the air and then watch you go again. I’d rather be the guy who sweeps the pavement outside the motor stadium.
5. Head tracking. Tell me again what the point is here? If you look to the left for instance, even if the game follows you and turns the point of view, the TV will still remain in the same spot so what you will see is the wall by the side of the TV, and that feature ladies and gentlemen already exists today…
6. Gear shifter. That’s all the downsides of the handbrake feature (above) plus that it will be a mess to find the right gear scince what you will be doing is essentially to try and find a spot in the middle of the air where the fifth gear is. Good luck.
So, Move in GT5 would be pointless. And I think that both PD and Sony knows that already so this article is probably just a rumour.
@Berlino Bear
Haha, well congrats anyhow!
Like it or not, it must be of some importance to SONY, because even the development of this little thingy costs several Million bucks !
@ Steady_Dave_2JZ hahah yeah… Im begining to think Kaz might be the Dad.
This sounds MAD to me now – “We can release it at any time” OMG! 2008, 2009, 2010, 11, 12, 13
“We can release it at any time”
@Belino Bear
Is your baby due to be delivered sometime between August 2010 and December 2011?
@ Smudgyboy. I have something else my wife can play with while I play GT5….. A baby. I wait all this time for GT5 and it turns out its going to be delivered about the same time as my first little one.
I hope they like Cars and Games.
NA you have all missed the point!
It’s something for the wife to play with while you spend hours on GT5
..I take it vibrates!
Oh, one thing I forgot. I always wanted to set up races in GT where I can choose which cars participate, how many, how long the race should be and so on. A real custom race and I don’t mean the arcade mode in GT. I want to race with a tuned muscle car f.ex. against exotics or whatever comes to my mind. That should not be hard to implement yet we can’t do it. But yeah Sony Move is important…
I don’t care about the Playstation Move functionality, just release the game already!
I wanna rock the Nurburgring Nordschleife in my 430 Scuderia, or M3 E30!
Too bad that I won’t be able to get the taste of Porsche’s wonderful flat sixes in GT5, that sucks.
Well, Sony has to keep up with Nintendo and Microsoft is also developing another input system. So from a business view it is obvious that they persuaded PD to integrate it as GT is a system seller. But as always, I fear some features the fans want will not be in GT because of 3D and Move. Instead of implementing simple things that will add atmosphere and a greater feeling of realism like skidmarks, reverse lights, impressing car and tire sounds, more options to customize a car (cmon, in GT4 you could not even paint your car afterwards) visually and integrating such things as tire wear that will lead to bursting tires like in GTR 2, LFS etc., oil temperature and engine failure from heat or from a crash, they integrate more or less useless features. The list of things that should be in the game is long and already discussed thousands of times, but still PD won’t listen and even if, they are still limited by Sony to some degree.
One thing I don’t understand is that Kaz is a perfectionist but small things that are important are not in the game like in GT4 the lack of doing donuts. Far from perfection for a real driving simulator, but I still love GT4 :)
Nevertheless, people are upset and so on, but in the end we will all buy this damn game and I’m sure it will have flaws that are known since GT4 or earlier. That is why PD or Sony won’t change their strategy a bit as long as people will buy the game no matter what features are missing. Forza in this regard is the same, they charge a lot of money for their DLC, but they won’t fix flaws.
Just a sensible thought.. maybe, like the Wii rmote, you can use it as a basic steering wheel if you don’t want to purchase a 200 dollar one….. like most of us..
By the way, who will win?
2D trees vs 3D world vs. Pointed Stick
Right, maybe Sony and the PD team really should eat more fresh fruit…
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RKTSwAVaoU
OK, 3D is something I WANT for GT5 and I WILL use it. But I really, really, really believe that this Move stick makes ZERO sense for a driving simulator like GT5.
Seriously, if it has to be an option to race with this laggy piece of sex-toy, I will not applause here or anywhere else. This is not the “innovation” I was asking for. It will improve nothing!
The only option I can imagine this stick might make sense is for head tracking, but then head tracking should work withouth a stick on my head (EyeToy Demos showed that it works). Anyway, for pure pleasure, please Sony, show us that docking station for our forheads. UNICORN FTW!!!
Well, it only does EVERYTHING.
Not that we want it…
We won’t know till E3 but my guess is as some of yours…livery design and possible handbrake implementation.
Ah F**k this sh*t!! If they are going to work on a playstation move function, the gamerelease will be delayed more and more… They should better make an end of the production of GT5 and go work on GT6 or something… This takes way too long!!!
Oh crud, it just struck me that if too many people mention how cool it would be to wash the cars, the next thing we’ll hear from PD is that GT is delayed yet another year to add close-up 3D support for hand buffing and toothbrush detailing via Move. That and that he’d like to have added “Bug and Tar remover support” but couldn’t due to liscense issues. (manufacturer not wishing to see their cans dented in game….) lol
If this “anal probe” is seriously the reason behind the game’s prolonged delay, then I give up on GT5…
jk :P
Heck, if people want to wash cars, I’ve got a few in my driveway that I will let people wash till they turn blue in the face. And just to make sure it’s a good deal for all, i’ll only charge 25% of what sony wants for the move, plus wait, there’s more: you can pump my gas for me has well….;P
It’s also been confirmed as rumour and speculation, so why cry about it? To be fair, I have no idea how they could integrate Move apart from as a pointing and navigating aid, but with a pad in hand that seems pointles. Maybe it’s used as a virtual hose pipe when you want to wash your car?!
Pit Stop boxing using Move in GT5,and 2D public fight!
GT5 NEED supports day/night cycle and dynamic weather system!!!!Move??Mehhh….F..ck.GT5 copy Mario Kart?Toad WRC driver?Wario Nascar driver?
Drivers gestures maybe? :-)

Maby move to use for the menu or painting , carwash , cockpitvieuw butons ….
its must be..or maybe ..^^
Seems to me that Sony are so scared of this 3D and Move technology failing that they are demanding they get put in this game in the hope to shift units. The problem is most people who are GT5 fans aren’t that interested and what happens after it’s released, what other good games can be played in 3D with Move?
Painting & washing your car with it would be sweet addition. But more important is: will there be refuelling? Also I want to use that dang HORN on my DFGT.
Oh neat, a little blue flashlight for Nurburgring night races.
Wonder if it leaves skidmarks when I throw it in the trash.
I wonder if it has damage. Does the move count has a premium controller or not?
Ohhhh,Mabey the blue ball works has a reverse light. That would be nice. Or mabey a turn signal…..
I just hope the blue ball has dynamic weather and day night cycles.
Lord help us. Just get the dang software out allready. Sheesh.
Have your wand in your hand, and have a virtual “barclays bank” shooting your virtual load over your motors in your garage.
YAY!!! Delayed the game to impliment two things most people don’t care about and both of which require you to buy more crap!
maybe hold the stick downwards and use it as a gear shift for the manual gearbox? hmmmmmm
Perhaps Yamauchi misunderstood when he heard we’d like them to ‘Get a move on!’…
Have to echo the sentiment that all this is unnecessary and insignificant ‘accessorizing’.
It might be useful for navigation, use other buttons, i wonder if the driver can jerk off or just show a finger to other drivers lol
well,Move support is gimmicky any way you look at it.would be funny though if they let you use the glowing sphere as a shift light haha.
A 3D Wii version of GT5? No thanks… Just give me 1080p, 2D, and a steering wheel…
this is the solution for casual gamers lol.
Head tracking with the PS move and a Basball cap with a PS move clip and a 50″ tv to look left and right on …. i dunno what u guys think but it sounds kinda cool to me.
a niche market
but still cool
more pointless news!
Now if you could use it during pit work. That may add a new twist.
I think this is POINTLESS! Like you guys said, why would this be in the game, a driving simulator? The only reason I can think of- marketing.
Well, if you don’t get dynamic day and night cycles and/or weather, look no further for your culprits, “features” like 3d and Move. :/
I know, maybe somebody else uses the move stick as a lollipop man when you pit, to signal when you’re ready to go, haha.
But gt5 will be a huge game with many variations gtmode worldtour wrc, gt, nascars , f1 ……
If it´s for head tracking, 3d move will be usefull. Imagine being abble to look at every inch of the car´s windshield from the driver´s position. That would make the interior view even more realistic. In that case i´m for it.
Gt5 will be release december or Q1 2011
@icant55 Says:
LOL, What he said
Sounds like the normal “GT Release Logic ™” in effect to me. If this ‘move’ controller in any way provides a more realistic interface than my GT wheel then I’ll “eat my shorts”. What will be the next delay people? Maybe something like a “facebook-plugin” or something just as pointless that will push back GT5 till 2011…
“We can release it at any time”
It will be a bad E3 for Gt5 nothing new , they will show move and 3d nuburgring gp and tokyo
PS Move could be used in a track editor!
So it might be included.
If the suggested price of the Move is anything to go by, I dont think i’ll be picking one up, unless you can buy it separate from the PSeye as I already have one….
My thoughts are that it might be used for some mini games, like some have suggested, pitstops…could have an online challenge for who can change a car with 1/4/5 studs fastest, refuel the car etc?
Alternatively, I was thinking maybe a little like pedals, where you angle each stick to be the gas/brakes (maybe clutch by holding L2 or something) while using either side movements or the d-pad to steer?
Just throwing out some creative ideas…I’m just looking forward to E3, I hope they have some more recognised car championships like the FIA GT series’ and the Aussie V8 Supercars….above all of that I hope they have some real Australian tracks to race :)
3d tv is good buy over 4 years beter tech and cheaper without glases , the first samsung UE40C8700 is not good and expensive, 3d tv is not good for your eyes and brain
Quote from article “We’re always attuned to new technologies.”
It’s a Wii controller that has been out since 2006. How is it new?
I feel really cheated being used as a pawn for SONY’s new merchandise when all I want is my Gran Turismo!
the one thing i thought of of as a drifter was maybe we can set the motion sensetivity
for use as a handbrake…. i would buy it then.
Damn it. Release a patch for that sh!t later. For the 3 people in the world that think it’s cool.
WTF!?
I’m not paying upwards of 100 bucks for stupid Wii rip off controller. Why spend that for this destined to fail add-on when I could put the money to a sweet racing wheel?? Release the flippin’ game Sony! Good gosh… bundle your stupid move controller with another Wii Fit game. Release… the… dang… game….
Next thing PD will wait to come to existence before launching this game is Logitech G2x wheel, which will have force feedback pedals. After all, GT5 has to be perfect (even if it never comes out) and will exceed expectations about the number of useless features in the game
Can’t they release a DLC for PS Move support, sell it at 5$ and then send a free Mario Kart game to all the people (who will be no more than 53) who buy it?
How can any company waste resources on utterly useless applications, knowing that this pisses of its customers….I am starting to think Homer Simpson is in charge of Sony
Seems pointless to me, I’ll stick with my G25 and keep hoping to see an actual GAME come out in 2010.
Sony if you want more of my money for gt5 just come out with dlc with more cool cars and great tracks ! thats all you have to do …… i dont see many people buying it for GT5.. we rather get the “real driving experience with the wheel…
could be a nice alternative for people who don`t want a wheel
Its used to flip the other drivers off! as you pass them LMAO! and you will be able to do it in 3D lmao!
This one is for the people who want to be the flag wavers on online racers….
You guys are missing the point here….
I couldn’t agree more that Move for Gran Turismo is pointless, much like 3d is. I simply can’t see myself using either and would much rather have the game today than wait for things to be added that mean nothing to me.
That said… Most everyone on this board including myself, don’t make up the majority. Sony is smart, if they can get a title like Gran Turismo to support this functionality then it helps drive sales for both Move and 3d displays. It’s all about the dollar and how they can get more of it.
I’m waiting months on end just so the game will be compatible with a &@$%# stick?!
“Let’s make the most accurate driving sim possible!”
“Good idea! Now let’s take few steps backwards!”
Omfgbbqsauce!
/rant over
I think it’s to introduce a new style multiplayer where you brings your friends over and they stand around for 20-30 minutes at a time, and then when you pit, they have to handle to pit-stop. It’ll be great too because your friends will be hacked and they’ll totally jack your pit-stop costing you the race, so you can then drive through the pits at mach 1 and hit your pit crew, at which point the MOVE controller will grab them and throw them to the ground.
and when it’s all said and done, you can wash your car with it.
I believe head tracking is a feature that was both hinted (if not confirmed?) and would make sense with Move.
Well, maybe not sticking something to your forehead, but the 3D tracking technology will be introduced with Move to the PS3.
And THAT would be an incredible feature for me.
You can use it to make obscenities at other drivers.
The PS-Move isn’t going to be used for racing, it’s most likely going to be used for Pit-stops and some menu functions.
Smells like MARIO KART WII !!!!!
You guys are missing the point here….
I couldn’t agree more that Move for Gran Turismo is pointless, much like 3d is. I simply can’t see myself using either and would much rather have the game today than wait for things to be added that mean nothing to me.
That said… Most everyone on this board including myself, don’t make up the majority. Sony is smart, if they can get a title like Gran Turismo to support this functionality then it helps drive sales for both Move and 3d displays. It’s all about the dollar and how they can get more of it.
I’m sure that Move will be used simply as a “wheel” much like the stick for the Wii is used…again nothing that you or I would use it for, but will target a lot of other non die-hard fans.
well at least things are heating up for e3
It would be cool to use this controller to move the camera in photomode.
It could be used for several functions already mentioned, spray-painting, pit-stop/garage tools or even carwash, etc.
Can hardly see it being used for driving though, think using Move will be optional perhaps only making certain movements required ( like painting if indeed included ) more fluent or detailed compared to the DS3.
Sorry for spamming, but this is so freaking stupid. Another area of use could be that the Move is a huge middlefinger which you can extend to your competitors if they drive bad during a race. Or you can put that glowing ball on the roof and pretend to be a cop and pull all your competitors over for speeding. Or you can place the Move on the road and run it over repeatedly with the heaviest car in the game.
Maybe it’s possible to be the band who plays the menu music in the game? And the Move can be used for other players to hold the cameras in replay mode. Or to stuff a banana in the exhaust pipe of their competitors before the start of a race.
@ erik
that sounds like fun
Honestly, playstation move won’t add anything of quality to the game. It would surprise me a lot if it will be featured in any way. I mean, it’s about as likely as if PD would make the guitar hero controller work with GT5. (Well, maybe if they add a feature so you can be a spectator of a race, and chill out in the nice camping area around Nurburgring with a guitar, or maybe some badminton…)
this is getting obsurd, 3D, ps move…how many times are they gonna delay for things we dont need, and in some cases, even want, id rather be playing right now with no 3D or PS move, since i will be playing that way when it does release anyway…end nerdrage
Its for keyless entry into the sls! ;-)
are we gonna be able to chat while driving ??
@d3br34k5
if you have to open the door for the mail man with that thing!!!
remember that vid of ‘shudder’ nutal, and she was holding her hands up in mid air to drive a car, (that can only last 5 mins befor your arms fall off), or when she pulled into the pits and the dad changed the tire in a small mini game of sorts.
its not beyond sony to take an idea. make it beter
It is highly likely that headtracking is going to be marketed as Move technology and likely the only reason that PD would delay GT5 for Move. It might be used for a lot of other little things but the headtracking is going to sell it.
i guess all sony are doing is maximising sales to the fullest. but to be fair who can blame them. with global hardware and software sales down.
mainly its adults who buy ps3. move is geared towards kids/teenagers. all sony are doing is spreading the ps3 and games across all ages/genders and audiences.
to be fair most people would be happy with gt4 hd, with weather, more race tracks and good online.
but gt has always aspired to be the ultimate driving game… and i dont think sony are prepared to let forza take its crown….and forza 4 will likely be announced soon/ end of year on 4 discs. so expect a killer game from polyphony digital, which will take some beating in terms of content etc. with some insane extras.
were already getting 1000 cars, rally, nascar, f1, gt etc. 100-ish tracks – top gear track, online community. night racing. gt mode. head tracking… which to me im assuming means you can put your face on your driver, as itll have to recogise facial features….id seen it mentioned ps eye can track facial features. ( all those features alone would be great)
not confirmed or what its implementation is. move support, 3d support,weather effects, track editor, livery editor, number plate editor, vehicle customisation, full track list, damage, dlc, custom audio,
regardless gt5 will be a monstrously huge game. with or without all features, and the more time they have. the more time they have to add further content.
regardless of release. im sold. with or without move/3d.
I would play now instead of playing in 6 months with 3d and move … i dont give a jive
Nah thats not going to work out!
If the game features a track editor, then the Move would be a great tool.
maybe its for Painting your cars. cant think of any real advantage it might have other than that… i wont wear a glowing ball on my forehead. Thats for sure!^^
and 3d looks bad and costs a lot of performance
…yeah just imagine waering a glowing hat thingy + 3d glasses – thats gonna look awfull and drive worse than the lame a$$ 2d version :D
Perhaps it coule be used to simulate a beer can, in which you could post your drunk time laps around the Nurburgring!
I don’t understand delaying the game if all it’s due too the playstation move controller and supporting the 3D technology. Sony already is releasing a firmware update in june to all playstation 3’s during the E3 show so why not just release a patch for the move controller support once the game is out.
the MOVE implementation to the game is likely to be limited to painting, customizing(if their is a livery), and navigating the menu in the game. but i see no use for it in actual racing. although if it is anything like the Dualshock 3 it might be good.
No thanks, I’ve already got a wheel. How do you drive a car with a stick in your hand? Silly.
The game coming out is more important than move :P. But I do love the amount of stuff Sony are bringing in July, lets hope this is another addition to the gadget-fest this summer will be.
Why? Because it’s a selling point. Sony is doing everything they can to make sure the Move sells and doesn’t become a flop.
GT5 1080p dynamich day night weather and headtreaking 1080p is muts inportant then 3d and move
I wonder how effective it would be if they made a mount for it and used a wii-like plastic wheel. Hopefully it won’t be as gimmicky as Mario Kart Wii, eh.
I would love to flick through the menu’s and stuff like that , but because I already got the G25 wouldn’t use it for racing :D
I’d rather use it as a Flight sim Joystick ;)
the PlayStation Move will be making an early move by July……this is from ps3 blog
Maby move to use for the menu or painting , carwash , cockpitvieuw butons ….
How would a driving simulator benefit from such technology ?
I imagine a cheap plastic accessory wheel where you mount the wand vertically 90° to the wheel’s radios since the PS cam is able to sense rotation of the ball..
still i prefer my beloved G27 :P
and BTW there was a semi-official list of games that support the Move, and yah GT5 was in there!
GT5 combination with 3d move and headtreaking and Moving Chair the best gt5 experience to have i hope gt5 stays 1080p 2d and 1080p 3d
Yeah you have to tape it around your head. That’s why he’s holding it in his hands.
eh, i was hoping for better news. But its news to me nonetheless
Do I have to tape that thing to my head?
Why???
Who wants to/is going to play a racing simulation game with a freaking stick?!?
Totally useless in my opinion…. shame it’s been delayed for this.
Very interesting. I did think that this was a possibility. Not sure how well it will work though. I already got my G27 so I guess it won’t really make a difference for me =p. Will be interesting to see what E3 brings. Can’t wait!
