An audio snippet of SCEE Senior Vice President Michael Denny suggesting Gran Turismo 6 will be released this year on the PlayStation 3 has been published by Silicon Republic, the website which conducted the confusing and controversial interview with him last week.

For those who missed out on the $10 “Black Friday” deals on Gran Turismo 5 XL Edition last fall, it seems online retailer NewEgg is giving you another chance to pick up the game (and its bonus content) at a nice discount.

Comments made by Sony’s Computer Entertianment Europe’s Senior Vice President Michael Denny have been gathering quite a bit of attention over the last 24 hours, and for good reason.

In an interview with Japanese gaming site 4gamer, Shuhei Yoshida, President of Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide Studios, answered a question about how Polyphony Digital and the Gran Turismo series fits in with the company’s future plans.

The PlayStation 4 was officially unveiled at Sony’s “PlayStation Meeting 2013” on Wednesday evening, and will be released at the end of this year (“Holiday 2013”).

All eyes will be on Sony’s “PlayStation Meeting 2013” on Wednesday, where they are widely expected to announce their next-generation console (GTPlanet will have links for the live-stream of the event available before it kicks off at 6:00pm Eastern Time [23:00 GMT]).

A new, free update for Gran Turismo 5, version 2.11, is now available to download.

Just hours after this week’s two unusual maintenance periods concluded, Polyphony Digital announced yet another round of scheduled downtime for Gran Turismo 5’s online services next week.

Polyphony Digital announced two 3-hour scheduled maintenance periods for Gran Turismo 5’s online services yesterday, both of which will take place next week.

A new update is now available for Gran Turismo 5, version 2.10. Weighing in at 55MB, it contains the all-new 2014 Corvette Stingray, just announced with a dramatic new video trailer at the 2013 North American International Auto Show.

Much like the 2014 Corvette Stingray’s trailer introduced Willow Springs Raceway, so too has the new Acura NSX Concept trailer made some exciting revelations for Gran Turismo fans.
