From Sony Japan website...

It looks lame. I don't like the typeface for "prologue"

 

[Jay]

hmmm...just a tad plain

Don't judge a book by it's cover already

I can't see how that could happen here.

lets refrase that .... Dont judge a GAME by its cover

*cough*Photochop*cough*

I'll vote with risingson.

the majority of the image has a slight blur on the edges of the text, except the "prologue". The font type does not match anything that has come out of PD. And a standard font with no fading or 3D quality?

In fact, I'll take risingson a step further and say Bad Photochop done by a 13 year old yearning to be noticed.

Can't be.. Prologue isn't misspelled

In fact, it's a true cover that has been published by Sony in pictures that are showing the racing bundle that will consist of new white PlayStation 2 and GT4Prologue .

Can't see the problem here.

Some 13 year olds are tricksy...they'll reference the dictionary every now and then.

*GOLLUM*

Well, that's direct from the site...I'd say it's a bad photochop by Sony, then.

 

[Touring Mars]

I think it looks lame as well, but it's genuine

However, it is most likely a mock-up for the sake of the webpage

Interestingly, it also hints at a release date of December 4th 2003....

...those lucky Japanese!

 

[risingson77]

Yeah, that's what I'd say...but you'd think that a PROFESSIONAL graphic artist could turn out something a little better than that. :\

The cover doesn't really matter, besides it's for the Japanese audience only. As long as it has the words Gran and Turismo on the box it'll sell.

 

[risingson77]

The cover is an important marketing tool. Not that it matters to the hardcore GT fan, but I'd like to see a cover that looks a little less like butt.

 

[Dave A]

I bet the Japanese public like that cover though.

 

[risingson77]

...because the whole of the Japanese public thinks exactly alike.

I don't like it. Nothing can be said that will change my mind.

Who cares really, it's just a box that contains a kick ass game inside. Anyone who spends hours staring at the game box instead of playing the game deserves to be shot. If you really don't like it, the cover can be removed and you can put in something better, like p0rn .

 

[risingson77]

Oh, don't get me wrong...it won't stop me from buying or enjoying GT4.

 

[Solid Lifters]

Isn't this the same cover we saw about two weeks ago? I don't see the difference.

I quite like it, its nice and plain which is good seeing as its basically a glorified demo of GT4. Its like a little peak into the full version so it looks great to me.

I also has a similar design to the special edtion "Prologue" memory cards and the Silver PS2 box set so I'd say its official.
