[lbsf1]

At least, if you're going to do the comedy racism thing, do it in half decent English.

This whole thing seems weird, I'm also wondering why anyone cares, or is there hope that he'll upload it to the interwebs?

 

[Spagetti69]

Ok sinbad.

So, didn't Jordan say he would clear things up around now?

It is 10-12 hours since he said that!

Nobody's really sure what's happening. Either way, Jordan is doing the same thing Sony has done to us these last few years.

He can at least explain the reason he took it down...

A little over a hour ago.

Unfortunately, I don't yet have any new information or updates regarding "the disc" yet.

lol

What a joke this crap is all turning out to be!

I have to say that you have some nerve making a comment like that.

Jordan doesn't have to explain a single thing to you or anyone else, but I'm sure when he has something to post he will when he's good and ready. I am sick and tired of some people here believing that they have some sort of God given right to demand answers or anything else that takes their fancy. You don't.

Asane, if you don't like it, then don't post here. Simple.

Not cool...

 

[FxsX24]

hopefully i wont get any flack for posting this, but some of the lettering seems crooked on the "disc"
found this on another forum
the PD logo is strait, the blueray logo is not
the dobly and gt5 logo are also crooked
the fine print slants down, the blueray and dobly slant up

also
ULES-00569 is. Dungeon Siege: throne of Agony

would sony use the number over again with the BCES?

 

[Aarron_M]

Here you go.

Jordan's latest on the News page, at the bottom of the comments for the disc.

"Hey everyone, sorry I’ve had to remove this image for now – I’m also going to be temporarily closing comments on this post. Stay tuned for more updates on this mysterious disc soon."

He sure doesn't have to but when you're in the people business it helps to be pleasing.

He did say he would update the news shortly with more information so people are expecting something to pop up there soon. I find Asane's joke to be quite fitting to the situation, really. In a forum where people complain so much about being left in the dark, this situation feels quite ironic.

The crooked letters add depth

ME!!!

I'm sure that's just he angle. If this is a Photoshop job, he wouldn't have just accidentally turned the logos the wrong way.

yes but they could have been slightly slanted when he lifted them, and didnt notice it, untill someone drew lines across it

[KilzoneStrife]

Some logos are crooked on some games

 

[shirakawaa]

That's the cheap cameraphone lens distortion.

 

[Cobalt600]

If you ask me its looks genuine guys and I have a BA degree in Animation, Digital manipulation and various other SFX related subjects. The reason the letters look non aligned (crooked) is that the focal length on most cameras give a slight distortion.

I need to laugh Akira beat me to it but I agree.

This.

Ignoring the fact there's less crime here than the UK too.

 

[Luminis]

Dunno, it kinda looks legit. It'd be strange to post a fake on a board that's related to music instead of posting it on GTPlanet, that alone makes me thing it's not likely to be false information.

However, it really doesn't matter all that much. It's not going to get me the game any faster.
I'd like to get a few bits of info on the tuning available in the game, though. And the car list, maybe.

 

[Spagetti69]

It was a bad joke sorry Anes. I'll edit it out.

Thats a good point 👍

If you truly went to all that trouble to fake it the last place you would post it up would be a totally unrelated site which isn't anything to do with the game. You would want the full exposure and post it here. But maybe he's been super smart and done this on purpose so we would find it!

I thought it was funny....That's like calling all Texans cattle barons and oil tycoons

oh wait.....

+1 but by now there should be the promised screens...

Sony may have contacted him maybe and payed him to not to show screens or killed him

That's what they have the Sony Killstick for!

 

[No46_TheDoctor]

I'd just like to know why there was the need to remove the disc picture from the news page, when it's still there in all it's glory on SONY's official forums ?

SONY don't seem to be bothered about it being on their forums, so why is GTPlanet so worried about it being on their's ?

If I didn't know better I'd say it was a ploy to generate traffic, but I know better
