Gran Turismo Producer Kazanori Yamauchi has said that Polyphony Digital is looking to implement car damage into the series “very, very soon.”
Speaking in a recent interview, Yamauchi commented, “We really, really want to put damage onto our vehicles.”
“We’ve had a lot of discussions with the manufacturers and although at the beginning they hated the idea of deformation, now they’re slowly coming around to it. We’ve still got a few to convince, but we will. Expect deformation in the very near future: very, very soon.”
Although he did not state whether or not deformation would appear in the full version of Gran Turismo 5, due out in 2009, he did reveal that the inclusion of downloadable content would continue to play a key role in expanding the series on the PlayStation 3.
“Obviously, we wanted to do a next-gen Gran Turismo,” added Yamauchi.
“When the PS3 appeared, we realised that we needed a lot of time to develop properly on this hardware, so we gave ourselves four years to come up with a complete programme. As a result, you’re not going to get Gran Turismo all in one go, but gradually, adding online elements and features as we go. The good thing is that it’ll have a long, long lifespan.”
Stay tuned.

i,m sure i read this yesterday on this forum
yah u did psu is a little slow sometimes. some people dont read the forums though so at least they put it on here
Now we can all say that gt is a real simulation driving game and not just a realistic bumber car game, how can the other driving games compete with this supremacy? just hope they work on the AI to make the races more interresting and challenging
Cant wait for prologue tomorrow morning
this is good news, although it does strike me as odd that so much fuss is made over this damage thing. maybe thats why burnout has no real cars.
You know with all the added features so far to this game. I don't care if they waited to GT6 to put it in. My biggest problem with the series was always 6 cars on the track at the same time, and in 2 player mode only 2 which was boring. Oh yeah and the fact that the other cars don't see you and ram into you.
They have to put weather effects too.
can't wait
I personally don't want car damage. I don't want my STI looking ugly!
psn id: gingo... i really dont think GT absolutely needs car damage but if car companies are willing to have it then it is a good addition and expansion to the series
how is it that other racing games have some of the same cars as gts, and they show it being damaged??? i just thought it was odd. but anyways it doesnt tske away how good the gt series is. ive owned every one since the 1st. and is by far my fav
Sweet. I welcome it! To all those not wanting damage, a simple "turn damage off" option would work eh?
good news
