Gran Turismo 4 Goes Gold
ViperG writes "Gran Turismo series producer and Polyphony Digital president Kazunori Yamauchi announced the completion of Gran Turismo 4's development at a special party dedicated to the game yesterday. During the party, Yamauchi took to the podium to make a number of comments on the game, and also mention a few things about the future of the racing series.
"Going gold" means the gold candidate, or the final version of the game/software is ready for release.
It is what is after alpha, bets and release candidates. Gold is the version the public sees.
GT4 has not been released yet. There was a few demos you could get from Toyota and other places, but the full version was still under development.
Now as far as super duper, re-releases of games as in releasing a Quake 2 Ultra Gold Edition or something like, I completely agree. As in finding a way to remarket the same game and make another $50.

1: Rape!
2: Rape who?
1: What's your name?
Yeah, it sucks.

I'm a bit confused..I thought the game was delayed yet again in order to put the online mode *back in.*
Let me guess...Sony forced them to release something in time for x-moose. Something tells me that with the release of an online version, which is what just about everyone interested in this game was waiting for, the sales for a non-online version will be limited to x-moose gifts from the same kind of parents who gave their kid the Twid Pod Cloud Car instead of a TIE Fighter or Snowspeeder Star Wars toy.
