No?

Pretty much every report and comment I’ve seen online about these accounts has been spun as terrible news. As if GT7 generated just £2m profit for the entire financial year.

People don’t seem to realise PD are an independent business within Sony Studios and revenue generated from GT7 is taken by the publisher.

Am I missing something here?

These accounts are for the running of the studio, not the performance of GT7. The title remains a consistent top 20 seller and will be generating tens of millions in profit. Those profits will be registered by Sony who are the publisher.

No, I was the one missing something, my apologies.

Upon reflection it mostly just means that Sony are funding the studio accurately.

Been interacting with Will, who did the 2023 GTWS Showdown Manufactures Cup…I’m not sure it’s going to be good if he’s saying this. I initially said “This has to be something significant if it’s being unveiled at GTWS, Circuit Gilles Villeneuve surely in this update…DARE I dream and say some proper modern race cars at last?” Then he replied with the first reply…be your own judge.

No shocker that Whitelegge himself is already being a maungy doomposter on the internet. Next up you'll be telling me it's June 27th.

I’m guessing it’ll just be Kaz introducing the typical update trailer in person! 🤣

With a dance? 🤠
I hope that even he knows that with a stage like that 5 cars and 2 menus and one event will be lame.

We can hope for 4 menus!

Tickets?

How do you have tickets worth worth 1.8M credits and 1M credits though? If you do, just redeem the tickets and the credits are yours until you spend them.

Because my credits are maxed at 100M. Credits won through gameplay wont go above 100M.
So I hold the tickets won through out the month and wait for the new update.
When the new update comes, I buy all the new cars, parts and engine swaps available, and then pay for all of it with the tickets I was holding.
But the tickets expire after 1 month.

I have the information, I know what is coming - that is why it is extra funny to see you (hi!) doing this..... yet again!

I think fans of Gran Turismo are going to be very happy with the update.

It's a racing game, not a banking simulator.
 
It's best to go into this without any specific expectations, and just see what happens.
As difficult as that may be with a 9 day wait until the news, and speculation left and right.

No expectations means less chance of potentially being disappointed, and a higher chance of appreciating what we do get.

At least am not lying about “information” and then walking around like am some dataminer though, put your money where your mouth is and tell the people what’s coming then.

I liked how he got so angry about being called out he went back to edit in an insult just to make sure we know how angry he is.

There there. It’s ok, just telling how I feel as an asset to the community after all.

Like Will told you what was coming? You seemed to trust him - or is it just because it was something negative for you to moan about and that's what you like to spend your time doing on Twitter?
I'm not asking you to believe me I just think you're a bit pathetic.

When revealing the contents for the ”July” update, I would love it if they revealed each car like receiving a prize car from Gran Turismo 4 with the background music and a massive “Congratulations” banner!

I imagine many boos from the crowd when that Genesis racer thing shows up.

Okay. I guess either spend the credits on something else now or just let them expire. If you're sat on 100M credits it's not as if you're short of credits and will miss the expired ones.
