Rumors were flying around the intarweb yesterday about Gran Turismo 5 for the PS3 featuring well over 1000 cars in it’s arsenal. Today Sony shot those rumors down with some heavy artillery.
Three Speech, the semi-official Sony blog, contacted the company directly to find out what’s the deal.
“Despite news articles claiming that ‘SCEI/Polyphony Digital’ have made an official announcement with regards to GT5 featuring 1000 vehicles, we can confirm that this is pure speculation. It would appear that the list is a mixture of vehicles that were included in previous GT titles, coupled with somebody’s own fantasy garage.
Further details about GT5 will be announced in due course, but for the moment at least, we can confirm that the current car list/speculation, does not come from SCE.”
As further evidence, the website that posted the list has announced it’s fake and wasn’t sent to them by Sony or Polyphany Digital.
Oh well, I guess we have to go back to speculating what kind of cool cars will make the cut in the next PS3 racing simulation.
You forgot to add that 300 of those cars will be variations of Honda Civics.
As long as those Civic’s have 2 good rims and 2 stock wheels and lots of stickers, they’ll be plenty fast
