Gran Turismo 5 Could Start its Engines with 3D
3D is ‘the next big thing’ in terms of home entertainment. The technology was the main draw during this year’s Consumer Electronic Show, with Sony proving to be the biggest supporter of 3D.
Not only did Sony showcase 3D enabled HDTVs and other consumer electronics, but they also showed off a few 3D capable PS3s equipped with 3D versions of some of Sony’s top PS3 games. One of these games was Gran Turismo 5, and according to a new report, consumers will be able to play GT5 in 3D at home sooner than you’d think…
According to MotorTrend editor Peter Lyon, Polyphony Digital confirmed:
“(A) 3D version” of GT5 will be available as soon as 3D TVs become available on the market.”
Sony is planning on bringing 3D HDTVs to the market as early as this summer. GT5 was slated for a March release, but development issues put the brakes on those plans. With a summer release date looking likely, Gran Turismo 5 could very well launch as a 3D capable game.

I thought they said that the delay was only for JP?
Yeah but I think it was supposed to come out in Japan before NA/EU…
If this is why its being delayed, then thats dumb, because basically no one will take advantage of it at first
And what other new technology will they use to push back the release. Not all PS3s will have 3D TV’s, I know I can’t afford one for another 5 years. So will I have to wait until I can afford a 3D TV to play the game? And will the online races be done in 3D or will that push back release like maybe motorcycles or the crash damage is not the way we like it.. It seems that perfectionism could kill Polyphony Digital in the video game market, they have Nissan to fall back on with development of the in-dash display system for the Nissan GT-R.

no, you wont have to wait until 3D TV’s come out to play GT5. the article is saying they will bring out a separate version of GT5 for those who want it in 3D and have a 3D tv.
They’ll probably be working on 4-D TV’s before that damned game ever comes out.
Its does not matter so much the delay of the game, as long as it is worth the wait. Games like this are what make the PS3 what it’s supposed to be. Games like Uncharted 2, GOD3, Final Fantasy 13. I just hope they don’t hold back on anything.
Although the 3D effect is certainly higher quality than in the past it really is still the same thing. You wear a pair of glasses and a blurry screen suddenly becomes clear.
Improvements? Picture is sharper and the glasses are more durable.
The reason it’ll fail? You have to wear a pair of glasses which are bulky and don’t mix well at all for people who already wear glasses. Until the television does all the work, it’ll never do all that well.
