Online reports indicate that Sony has confirmed the existence of a track editor in Gran Turismo 5...
Remember that incredibly weird GTPlanet forum post from earlier this year, which sounded more like a Nostradamus prophecy than a game reveal? Some commentators took that to mean that a track editor will ship with Polyphony Digital's Gran Turismo 5, and now the developer has apparently confirmed this rumour.
Since the initial ramblings, videos from Helsinki's DigiExpo have also been linked with the GT5 track editor rumour, although our inability to speak Finnish is a crippling barrier here. Nonetheless, this apparent confirmation that emerged over the weekend is a lot clearer:
"Yes it will have a track editor. You will be able to rebuild a track from scratch or edit the tracks that are already put in Gran Turismo 5," a representative for Polyphony Digital revealed, according to E4G.
We found this all very suspicious, particularly as the article refers to a representative for Polyphony Digital rather than Sony, but we fired out an e-mail to Sony UK anyway for comment on the rumour and received this:
"We haven't confirmed this and aren't offering any other comment at this time."
Sony aren't exactly denying the feature's existence and, if our previous experience is anything to go by, then Sony are usually hiding something when they fail to flatly deny its existence. The company's response to our inquiry about the PS3 Slim when the first raft of pictures emerged in May of this year would be exhibit A in this particular argument.

I agree the long term playability of this game is very bad. Thats where we come in with ongoing leaderboards, championships and leagues.
There is a A&Q about our site here on TVG. Sorry I cant put in a link look for gt5-online 'dot' com

RUF is not associated with Porche, the cars may resemble Porches but there not made by Porche, and as GT5 has the biggest majority of its cars that anyone actually wants in standard form rather than premium (so far in 2 months there is no update to change any standard cars to premium nore has the game had anything done to fix the shadow problem, no car packs no track packs no additional features it really is quite poor from a high profile game not to get essential updates) the game is hoplesly dull and boring, long term GT5 fails thats why its not AAA.

wtf is going on, is everyone loosing the plot, car duplicating and racing are 2 different things and no amount of car duplication will make any cars go faster or slower, now if somone managed to mix say a bettle with the x2010 and some how maerge the 2 cars together so the bettle handled and went as fast as the x2010 but had the bhp stats of the bettle now that is cheating and having an unfair advantage but for car duplication to get the 1000 owned cars trophie it will take over 2.5 years as you can only gift 1 car a day, so again car duplication doensnt give anyone an edge online lmfoa.
