Gran Turismo 5 Creator Will be Frustrated Once Racer is Completed

04/23/2010 Written by Zak Islam

Despite a release date still pending, Gran Turismo 5 has certainly come a long way. The popular franchise’s creator has been known for his attention to detail in past Gran Turismo titles. However, the head of Polyphony Digital believes he won’t be completely satisfied once the PlayStation 3 exclusive is completed.

Speaking to unofficial PlayStation magazine publication, PSM3, Kazunori Yamauchi stated that he will be left “angry” once development for Gran Turismo 5 finishes.

I’d probably be relieved [to finish development] in terms of having fulfilled my responsibilities, but I may be angry at the same time.

As it has been with all of the releases so far, I’m never fully satisfied with what I create.

It comesĀ as no surprise that he won’t be completely satisfied with what he creates, due to the legendary developer stating on several occasions that after a game’s completion, he always feels there’s room for improvement.

    wow…respect. I can’t wait for this game to hit. There is always room for improvement, but I’m glad he takes this seriously and doesn’t waste his time releasing crap games, or the same game year after year.

    Morning everyone :)

  2. Morning Graey! Gran Turismo 5 is going to be incredible. End. Of. Story.

    Nothing wrong with being a perfectionist. I would take that over crappy games any day.

    hello …

    great, someone that cares about us gamers, yet if we try to keep correcting, will never end.

    sure hope Mister, that after release, you do develop some patches & updates for the game to be more that good.

    1 thing i wish i never see: the 2D ugly sprites for the crowd!

    cheers!

  5. Yea, it’s great that we PlayStation 3 gamers are going to get another great exclusive game and all, but man, this guy borders on the obsessive. He’s going to work himself to death if he’s not careful.

    gotta respect his attitude……but enough already!
    when will this game be available!
    when it does emerge it had better be quality from top to bottom …inside out …… in every single aspect……other wise i fear all the doubters will be sharpening their teeth!

    this obviously explains the looong development time. im glad that he is the way that he is. ive had plenty racers to keep me busy in the meantime. burnout, grid, nfs shift… all great racers in my opinion. so if i was left very impressed with those games, i can only imagine how blown away ill be with gt5. especially since the last gameplay ive had with it was the demo back in ’07 and i was thoroughly impressed with such an old build.
