Just as Mercedes-Benz told us, their new SLS AMG is on hand to represent GT5 at the Tokyo Game Show. 1UP.com offers this sneak peek at the show floor, and it looks like our favorite racing game is taking center stage at Sony’s massive booth. It’s hard to see much else behind the big display, but it’s a safe bet there’s a few PS3’s loaded up with a fresh new demo of the game hiding back there.
I’d also like to remind you about the updated press conference time – as it turns out, the 10:30 AM (Tokyo time) is when Sony Computer Entertainment’s CEO Kaz Hirai gives his keynote address, and GT5 news from that is unlikely. Sony’s full press conference won’t begin until a few hours later (1:30 PM Tokyo time), when there is a much better chance of Kazunori Yamauchi taking the stage. I’ve updated my original post accordingly, so please take a second look at it to calculate the new time of the presentation in your local area.

nice
I don’t even have a PS3 yet. I always tell my friends “when GT5 comes out”. Looks like it’s almost time to pay the piper.
Can’t wait I played the life out of gt4 and now this, bring it on PD.
im goin to sleep, waking up, then going back to sleep
think im gonna have a early night and be up for 5.30, this is just too good to miss…….but i got a sneeky feeling bout something, not gonna say what but im gonna keep my fingers crossed
Noooooo 12:30 am i have to get up early tommrow :(
But i’ll wait till the afternoon to hear the exciting news!
dam!!im usually still up at 2.30am, was looking forward to the live blogs, but i wont be getting up at 5.30am!! oh well,
Finally, TGS is here! I can’t wait to see some new gameplay. Hopefully they will provide more cars and tracks in the demo.
wow wa wee wa! its here its really here, this forums going to explode within the next 24hours :D
My money’s on Dec. 1st for release. It’s a Tuesday (the release day for boxed games), it allows plenty of shopping days before Christmas, follows the frenzy of USA Thanksgiving buying season and allows plenty of time to get the marketing hype in place and everybody all wound up to put a PS3 Slim and GT5 under the Christmas tree.
So December 1st it is! Watch and see.
1up should have filmed the GT5 booth.
So I have heard alot of places say gt5 is coming out dec.29???
Is this true or false??
(even though I know it hasn’t been officially announced yet)
Finally GT5 is almost here. i think we should celebrate its fifth coming by a Millenium type count down lol.
Hey, Jordan… guess what you forgot to change the Wednesday to Thursday for the NY time. The 24th is a Thursday…
I have diet coke and popcorn. Bring it on, PD.
sounds good to me. :)
I cant wait to see the updates tommorow, feels like christmas.
I love you, Jordan. :)
This is even better than before, now I can stand up normally and be ready for news to hear. Thx Jordan =D
Thx Jordan, nice!
Thanks, Schmo – it’s fixed. :)
@ Jordan, Your time for New York is right, but the date is wrong. Should be the 24th.
Dont want to confuse the minions.
@ Jordan
Sorry, I did not mean to sound as if I found your information to be incorrect.
It is just that this is the first I have heard of the change; I merely wanted to know where the info came from.
Thanks however :)
This means I can go to sleep for a while lol
Yes, Alex, I will be covering both events – just in case. ;)
Hey Jordan, I have a little question: Will you do a live-blog on Harai’s speech too?
That place looks like nerd heaven!
The first website I’m gonna log onto when I get home from work is GTPlanet at 3:30 so I expect you to have all necessary information front and center for me and only me, Jordan.
You see at booth? Yell yes!
All will become clear in a couple hours time. No more cryptic messages and second-hand guesses. Just cold hard facts.

Europe my friend xD
Everyone has the 10:30 time.
Where did the 1:30 pm time come from then?
Cruiz, as I explained in the post, the new time is for Sony’s Press Conference. You don’t have to take my word for it, though – here’s a post on G4TV which also clears things up.
So the Sony Conference is 3 hours after the keynote?? Hmm so it means, 12:30am here in the Eastern time. Bring it on!!
It is so beautiful!
