Sony: Gran Turismo 5 "still about a year away"

Gran Turismo fans still have around 12 months to wait for a full sequel to appear on PS3, according to Sony Computer Entertainment of America.

"...GT5 is still about a year away. You should just decide now to buy it, enjoy it, go online and race against anyone and everyone, rank number one worldwide, get the girl (or guy) and become the most popular kid in town. The end," Chris Hinojosa-Miranda, associate producer atSCEA, says.

The last we heard on a release date for GT5 came from the mouth of the game's director Kazunori Yamauchi who said it could be pushed back as far as late 2008. Seems he needed to add a few months to that guesstimate.

Still, at least GT5 Prologue is out tomorrow in the UK and less than a month away in the States.
