Autoweek’s Interview with Kazunori Yamauchi
This week, the creator of the Gran Turismo franchise was at the SEMA show, which he does every year. He talks about why it has taken a long time to develop, and the development costs of Gran Turismo 5. As well as how many cars he envisions for the game to have, and how many tracks we’ll see.
In GT5, they’re aiming for at least 1,000 cars in the game, while you race it out on 70 different tracks. All the cars will be on disc, no need to download them to the Hard Drive he says. As far as DLC, they may do it, but no plans as of yet. Also the game costed $60 million to create.
