Gran Turismo 5 Delay Blamed on Production Issues, Yamauchi Issues Apology


It seems production issues are to blame for the Gran Turismo 5 delay, according to GTPlanet. Yamauchi issues an apology, as seen below.

Quote:
"Apologies for the delay. It’s because time and labor were spent ironing the kinks out of a complex system. I’m really sorry. Everyone, it’s inexcusable… Wait a little longer."
Platform: PS3

I bet it has something to do with making sure u have the latest firmware to play the game. so it won't be pirated

not trying to start a console war or anything so please kids dont flame me, but for PS3 owners, does this further delay make you really anticipate the game more or just tick you off more that it seems to be the "duke nukem fornever" of the race car games?

I know i would be really upset if forza kept delaying the game for whatever reason.

Ha, I love the "...wait a little longer" ending to that quote.

Kind of a jab to fans...basically saying "It'll be out eventually, suck it up and deal with it"

I know it won't happen, but I would love if there were some poetic justice such that when the game does come out, it unexpectedly bombs (based on what this game is expected to do sales-wise), or that there's a deafening cry from fans saying "We waited all this time for THIS?!"

IMHO, it would behoove Yamauchi to get over himself and realize that the genre is catching up to him.
