“We Love Cars” Japanese GT5 Marketing Campaign Launches w/TV Commercial

Gran Turismo 5 September 20th, 2010 by Jordan

The official hype machine for Gran Turismo 5 is getting fired up, as PlayStation Japan launches their “We Love Cars” marketing campaign on Polyphony Digital’s home turf. Check out the new TV commercial above, or head on over to the somewhat confusing (for us non-Japanese speakers, at least) new “We Love Cars” website.

Of course, here at GTPlanet, we do, indeed, love cars, but what toy car first got you interested in everything automotive? Join the discussion in XEPEGTP’s thread in our forums!

    the video is well done
    it have good phics and just excellent realism

    now i realy see the price of the GT5
    it is realy cheap

    when the gt4 came out it was some good 60 euros
    than some 2 years later it was at 29euros and i bought it
    I got tired after a long period(some good 3years of joy)
    it was the lastest game i play on ps2.
    im going to be sad after selling my ps2 and games
    just because im not going to play anymore gt4
    i got some good times with it :(

    i dont know why but when i saw that i remember of rfactor
    with alot of cars
    and it give me an idea
    why dont create a gran turismo online for PC, like the EA did to NFS and HALO
    but, with graphics like the gt4 but a litle better on the shape of the textures and shadows and alot more cars than rfactor

    i certanly would buy it
    and i think that alot of people with good PC that are fans of GT Series and dont have ps3(and some dont have ps2) would like to have one for pc and to play online

    this is my request to yamauchi

    thank you for listen me :)

      Whilst GT it may not be on the PC, Eutechnyx appear to be working on a GT/NFS?TDU style of driving title – Auto Club Revolution. No idea how good/bad it will be, but it appears it will be free.

      You can find more here….. http://vote.autoclubrevolution.com/hooray

    Just got an e-mail off my mate studying in Japan that he has been able to get hold of the public demo. He’s going to be sending over the Blu-ray from which I will be able to install it at home.

    I reckon the most important thing in that advert is when it says the November 3rd release date!

    Plus it is one weird advert for a game! haha
