Gran Turismo 6 in development?

Gran Turismo 6 has emerged on the Linkedin CV of a Sony employee.

The page, belonging to Brian Dunn, Associate Product Marketing Manager at Sony Computer Entertainment America LLC, has since been taken down, but remains active thanks to the wonders of Google cache.

Gran Turismo 6 is listed under "managing the following titles and franchises..as product manager, handling strategic planning, day-to-day marketing activities, and lifecycle management".

While it may be a typo, the CV lists Gran Turismo 6 as being in the process of "managing", while Gran Turismo 5 was "managed", suggesting that he may very well be overlooking product planning for the game.

Didn't play 5.

Probably will play this one though.

Forza can die in a fire.

Forza > GT.

If you asked me before GT5 came out, I would've said the other way around. Loved GT since GT1, but 5 killed it for me.

Much like Tekken 6.

A complete version of GT5 then?

Forza > GT.

If you had asked me years back when GT3 was out i'd have told you nothing comes close. Now though? They need to inovate and get with the times the series is getting extremely tiresome in its current form. Sony need to call in a developer willing to work side by side with Polyphony to bring some fresh maybe more western ideas and concepts to the table. The GT franchise still sells extremely well and has a great history, be a shame to see it derail.

So they'll release a prologue, then wait another few years to release the game which won't look much different?

GT6 probaly be better than Forza because it's a Sony Playstation exclusive.

But Forza is a microsoft exclusive. Doesn't your logic suggest they'd be the same?

I just hope they don't announce it early and everyone has to wait a millennia until it releases and ends up being average. Well, to everyone's judgement.

While I am a ps3 owner not a 360 owner I think newest forza beat newest gt easily. It was just more fun. apart from the hugging of drivers I never liked that it was like watching some one else play but u couldn't talk to them about how fun it looks

In all honesty i don't think we'll have to wait as long for GT6. I reckon it's gonna be more of a GT5.5.
Same engine with upgrades, removal of all the standard cars and replaced with premium models, new cars and tracks, better menu system and hopefully better collision noises and effects.

Can't speak for the others, but I'm hardly a 360 fanboy. I adored GT up until the latest. Forza has surpassed it greatly and each new edition improves on the previous, whereas GT is just getting tiresome.

So says the PS3 fanboy :P

Seriously though the word fanboy is getting so old these days. Apart from @Gammaray13 who cares?
People have opinions not always in your favour, can't you except them rather than call fanboy everytime? jeez -_-

I've had a PS since the release of PS1. Have loved playing it for years. But Gran Turismo 5 killed the franchise for me.

Gran Turismo 5 is shit. Get over it. Forza trumps it.

& tbh? I actually bought a 360 JUST because it came in a bundle with Forza. Every console NEEDS at least one top notch racing simulator, and the PS3 does not have it. Sure, it's got games like DIRT, but they are a complete different style to GT, and what it should've been.

lol Forza is an arcade racer with plastic graphics, GT5 is a simulator which is exactly what it claims to be.
NFS Shift is Forza's equivelant

Your right dicky, it is an opinion but anyone that thinks forza is sim is really badly mistaken...
I have raced go karts an drifted in small time events in SA an although lets be honest GT5 aint spot on it is the closest thing to real life... Forza is a good arcade racing game
