Why are you so perturbed about this anyway? !
I'm not perturbed, just kinda confused at the very limited options in the poll. I mean, there's many racing games available on both the PS3, PS4 and Xbox for console users, more for them who also have PC so I was voicing my opinion.
One thing people haven't abandoned is coming back to the GT boards to proclaim they've abandoned it. Definitely no shortage of that, for sure.
As has been mentioned, there's more to GTP than just the one game franchise and even though myself and others have 'abandoned' GT as you so broadly claim, I still have an interest in news and views on it so when I read the title of this thread/poll, my interest was piqued. Just because a game no longer holds my interest as it used to doesn't mean you can't hold an opinion on it. FYI, I do occasionally fire up GT6 if there's a seasonal event I'm interested in competing in, so reading the news section and GT boards is essential in this respect.
Since playing ProjectCARS on the PS4 I've been spoiled by the superior physics, sounds, graphics and gameplay (practice, qualifying, grid starts etc) in offline mode.
If GT released new game modes (highly unlikely this late in its life), then maybe it would get me excited again, but seeing as I've completed my career over a year or so ago, there really isn't much to keep me enthused. Even Track Path Editor was a short lived moment of interest for me, made some tracks, downloaded others, but ultimately it was the uninspiring gameplay that turned me back off.
