Damn you Sony and Polyphony Digital! I have been waiting for Gran Turismo 5 since the PS3 first came out. I was hoping to see it by this March (which would have been a convenient coincidence since my birthday is in March) but NO. According to Ars Technica, they announced yet another delay. This is starting to smell like Duke Nukem Forever, but without the topless ladies.

I certainly understand the desire for perfection but at some point, it seems like you should stop adding features, release the game so, you know, people can buy it and provide you with income to continue working on the next iteration, which I would, of course, buy. The only exception to this rule is that I would really love to see a racing game that has IndyCars in it as well as other open wheel cars. I know GT5 has NASCAR stuff, but if they spent this much time on the damn game, there had better be some kick-ass open wheel action.

Apart from that, I need something to satisfy my ricer craving while still offering a realistic racing experience. DiRT 2 comes close, but it's mostly geared towards Rally like endeavors and you can't upgrade your car like you could in previous GT games.

It makes me sad, but at least I have Ratch & Clank and supposedly DDR is coming out for the PS3. God help us all if Britney Spears is on it again. *shivers*
