Sony debuts Gran Turismo 5 trailer
Gran Turismo 5 finally made an appearance at Sony's E3 briefing in the form of a short trailer showing off the game. Polyphony Digital's latest racer will bring rally racing to the series, and while the visuals looked terrific, we didn't get to see any actual gameplay, so there's no major indications whether it'll be more like Gran Turismo 4 or more like Gran Turismo 5 Prologue.But either way, we bet it'll be Gran Turismo. No date set for release, obviously -- we'll bring you a nice-looking version of the trailer when we can.

Wired News racks up its annual list of the top 10 vaporware products -- items that have been promised but haven't shipped -- with almost half of them being long-delayed games. Stalker: Shadow of Chernobyl, Gran Turismo 4 Mobile, and Spore earn spots nine, seven, and four, while Duke Nukem Forever clocks in at number one. Again. Duke's nearly 10-year development time have earned it six mentions in the nine-year history of the list, including this year.We've lost track of DNF and are holding our interest until its launch, but we did want Spore. Which games have you missed this year?

The copy written for the game still haunts PSP fans to this day:""Gran Turismo Anywhere" -- Gran Turismo 4 Mobile, coming from the Gran Turismo series, is the PSP version of the real driving simulator. Its product quality is not at all inferior to its PS2 counterpart, and is compatible to competition over wireless LAN, a unique feature to the PSP."
Gran Turismo 4: Mobile Edition delayed indefinitely
There may no other racing franchise to see more delays than Gran Turismo. And now it's portable edition Gran Turismo 4: Mobile Edition is getting in on the action or lack thereof.Famitsu confirmed the news with the franchise developers Polyphony Digital that the racing sim has been delayed indefinitely.While this definitely sucks, should we really be surprised? Gran Turismo 4 was delayed for more than a year and a half, so I guess it's only fitting that we do the same with the PSP version.(Via Total Video Games)
