A GT5 demo

[UN_OC]

There is a yet to be named demo for PS3 as the final event for E3 2010.... Just interesting in whether you think this could be GT5 yay or nay?



As far as I'm aware demos come for a big game (like GT) come out a few months before the game and with July, August, September and October pretty much to go and GT5 being bigger than the Gulf Oil spill - is it likely we will be getting a taste of a track or two and a hand full of cars as a demo soon?

 

[Bekimche]

I highly doubt it and I don't think GT5 is the biggest game there (it is to us).

 

[RoadRunner99]

I think many people here would spend 5 $/€ on the PSN to play a Demo with one car / one track / time trail...
Well at least I' would do that
Time may be good for that, so it's really my hope/dream

 

[prisonermonkeys]

I believe Polyphony have said that there will be no demo before the game's release.

 

[Neal]

If there is I'd put money on it being exclusive to PSN Plus subscribers, check out the PSN Plus trailer and see which game is shown when they announce exclusive demos and betas!

 

[MrRoadRace]

The TT was the demo.

 

[Owen.C93]

There wasn't really a no option, but opted for the last one.

 

[RoadRunner99]

The TT was the demo.

I have to disagree. TT was specially designed for GT Academy selection/competition.
Of course it was also a demo.

I never heard of this. Where did you hear this?

I would rather see them put the effort into the game instead of a demo. We already have GT5 Prologue and the TT demo. Lets just get the dang game finished. This much time is just rediculous. What has it been 5-6 years on GT5?

true... could have.. but I didn't think anyone here would be not want one...

Sony said it is the most anticipated game of the decade (more like the second half for me) so no

 

[prisonermonkeys]

A couple of the early reports mentioned it. Most overlooked it.

 

[cobraagent90]

PS+ is coming and will be giving out betas so i think Sony could earn a lot of money if they release the GT5 CES demo only to subscribers(18$ for 3 months or 50$ for the whole year i think)

Here's hoping for a demo. But I won't be disappointed if there isn't any.

I want one, but there wont be one.

 

[Zimmerd]

Of course everyone wants one,
but I don't actually need one.
I have november in mind and can wait for the full package until then.

Think you may be right but really hope you're wrong on a GT5 demo perhaps only being accessible to PSN Plus subscribers.
Maybe a smart move to persuade people to upgrade to Plus but I really hope those who aren't can also play a Demo-version of this widely anticipated game ( which may be smart looking purely from a GT5 point of view ).

I hope I'm wrong too! Maybe an online multiplayer beta/demo will be released early to PSN+ subscribers to gently test the servers and then be publicly released to the masses. It would be a fairly cynical move to get people signed up to PSN+ but I'm sure it would be successful.

The worry I have about PSN+ is that it would only be linked to one PSN ID which could cause problems if you want to use it for your GTP_PSN ID for GT5 but your main account is on a different PSN ID!

 

[DustDriver]

I would be happy if they gave us the E3 demo.

 

[J-PaP]

The E3 demo is almost as big as GT5P. I'll just wait for the actual game. No point having tasters of a game we already have had 3 samples of on ps3.

Whatever it was id be nice if they would have let us keep it or gave it back to us.

Things is it wouldnt take that much effort. There have been multiple demos of the game already made. They just haven't been released to the public. Its as easy as uploading one of them to PSN and making it available. It would take nearly no effort.


Here's to hoping to getting a Demo.

 

[Dazzla]

I'm guessing we will see some sort of a demo to hype up the game further.
