Hey guys, I'm kind of hoping this thread can be a little different from the others. And not get locked, here's hoping for serious discussion instead of your typical hype and general, Don't get hyped commentators, I'll admit, I was one of the hyped people of the last maintenance period, So I'm done getting my hopes up.

Lets talk about what the reality could be. This is all speculation and observation on my part, and not a theory I have seen anywhere. So that's why I am making this, any one is welcome to add commentary.
In the past, talking about Gt5. We had many updates for the game to be essentially completed, while fixing some bugs.
Some time frame, 24, November, 2010. The game launchs w/ update V1.01.
The game updates periodically twice every month, or every other month
After v1.13 released, we peaked and reached v2.0, we have already surpassed v1.13
Along with these updates, many were accompanied by server
maintenance of varying lengths. 2-4 hours mostly.
But what sparked an interest in me, was after 2.0, even though we made it to all the way to 2.16, the updates were given more sparingly.
We made it up to 2.16 before they cancelled online services
Just six months after Gran Turismo 6s release.
With Gran Turismo having so many fewer updates than GT5, but having a size advantage. Put us around the same time frame as GT5. PDI seems to have a pattern, I hope I'm not crazy and some others can see it as well.
Some of the last few updates are what I am truly interested in. Many being small in size, fixing minor bugs but always accompanied by server maintenance, Some notable ones weighing in at 4 hours.
To the point, so as I said, this is all speculation, but could we be seeing the beginning of the End of GT6? Could these extended maintenance period be coming on the heels of a possible announcement for GT7, and maybe even prepping the servers for after GT7 comes out.
Maybe this could go as far to say, since we all know PDI is relativly cheap when it comes to some matters, and nothing different is happening with servers on GT6, besides getting worse. Is PDI prepping PS3 servers, to be transferred to the PS4, rather than build from the ground up?
And since someone may see this and think of this...
FIND OUT NEXT TIME ON DRAGON BALL Z!
Anyway, share your thoughts, I haven't seen this. It's something to think about none the less.
