Polyphony Digital boss Kanzunori Yamauchi has promised to connect the global community in Gran Turismo 5.
He was speaking in an interview with GT Channel (dug up by videogaming247), highlighting the advancements the PS3 had allowed his team to make.
"This Gran Turismo was going to be the first game produced for the PlayStation 3 hardware, so we definitely had to take the specs of the game to a whole new level," said Yamauchi.
"For example, we've increased the number of cars that can run in a single race. We've also worked hard to make the driving simulation more real; for instance, we've tried to give the player more control when drifting the car. Another element is the AI, the cars that you race against. It's become much more intelligent.
"Also, this game will have online capabilities. Even up till now, I think Gran Turismo has created a unique global community, but the users weren't really connected to each other. Now the community will really become global. This will be a big change," he added.
Which all sounds lovely, if it turns out to be anything more than 16-player online featured in Gran Turismo 5 Prologue - out here in late March.
Yamauchi went on to describe the Gran Turismo series as a game with elements "that will resemble an encyclopedia of cars".
Its always been about simulating cars and having real life models available to play which, apparently, was a concept that took a while to catch on.
"At first the whole concept of Gran Turismo couldn't be understood by the games publisher," continued Yamauchi. "Back then, there wasn't anything called driving simulators."
He went on to boast about the contents of his personal garage. He has a beefed-up Nissan 350Z, a Honda S2000, a Mercedes SL55, a Porsche GT3, and two Ford GTs. Snap!

Following incredible success for music gaming fuelled by breakout hits such as Guitar Hero and Rock Band, Nana-On Sha president Masaya Matsuura has told GamesIndustry.biz the next step for continued evolution of the genre is to include user-generated content.
EA and Activision have relied on their publisher muscle to secure licensed titles for Rock Band and Guitar Hero, respectively, but Matsuura believes that if they can monetise user-generated content they'll open up further business models as well as broadening user appeal.
"The current success of music-based gaming in the West is based upon licensed music," said Matsuura in an exclusive interview published today.
"The [companies] already have music resources. So they can use a lawyer to get the license and they can make the product of the game.
"In the future I think maybe they should open the format of the audio to the public so that everybody can make their own tracks for Rock Band or Guitar Heroes – publishing in some way using the internet, exchanging their own game code, including songs, with each other," he said.
"If they can sell that kind of data, some people will be on the money."
Matsuura also see opportunities for record companies hoping to take advantage of the popularity of music games, allowing users to sample free tracks in a game in return for advertising a bigger musical portfolio.
"If one record label has a catalogue of 30 titles this month, and if you want to play one song without paying the money, the record company allows you to play that one track but during the playback you have to watch advertisements for other titles, for example," he offered.
The full interview with Matsuura can be read here.

Online retailer Play has popped up a surprisingly good PS3 bundle deal.
For GBP 299.99 you can get yourself a 40GB PS3 with a copy of Uncharted: Drake's Fortune and Ninja Gaiden: Sigma.
Delivery is free and the package should save you a few quid. Bundles elsewhere seem to ask for 30 quid extra on a two-game bundle, despite some good single-game offers at 299.
Uncharted: Drake's Fortune was probably the best game on PS3 last year, scoring a worthy 9/10 on Eurogamer.
Ninja Gaiden: Sigma is a polished port of the Xbox game and, despite being rather antiquated, is the best in the series so far and not to be sniffed at.
So, seen any good bundles lately?

Guys,
I found this article By Justin Pinter about Wardevil:
"PSU: New Wardevil Screenshots and details
Posted on February 14th, 2008 at 00:21 EDT
Only a week after our first Wardevil Update, the Digi-Guys have released new images showing off the further changes to Wardevil Project, as well as providing us with some new information.
According to the Digi-Guys, these shots are just a taste of what is to come. Keep in mind that they are currently working on not only a game, but a Blu-ray CGI film as well that coincides with Wardevil's storyline.
For a quick overview about Wardevil and its storyline, check out our preview here, or our last week's update here.
Here are the latest details about Wardevil:
- They are not finished with the game yet, still adding improvements both gameplay wise and graphically.
- They are making good use of the SPU's and streaming off of the Blu-ray disc
- Their goal is to get the Blu-ray film & game to look as identical as possible... so there is no transition between game/cinematic
- They will not be at GDC this year, however expect to see new updates to their website around the same time. "
They have some cool images posted there as well.
Here's t he link to the article/news:

Many people are making plans to be with the ones they love on February 14th, but Sony's spreading a little digital love in the form of two highly anticipated demos. The PSN and PSP stores will receive a demo for MLB 08: The Show, SCEA's critically acclaimed baseball series. Players will be able to experience three innings between the Red Sox and the Rockies at Fenway Park during the day within the demo.
The PSP store will also receive a demo for Patapon, the funky rhythm game that pits diminutive creatures against strange beasts. The Patapon demo will feature seven levels of exploration, collection and dancing, which should provide more than an hour's worth of gameplay. These two demos will be downloadable with the other content within the PSN update, which will be posted tomorrow.

The word sweeping the net this morning is of a supposed confirmed UK release date for Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, set for March 28 by a "Sony release schedule", according to reports.
Not having received the schedule ourselves, we contacted Sony UK, who told CVG: "We still haven't confirmed anything yet".
A march release has been on the cards since last month, as we reported, and Sony's official site doesn't shine ay more light on the matter.
Admittedly, these March 28 reports can't be far off the mark. Although Sony is still unwilling to pin down an exact date, it has told CVG: "We're currently aiming for a late March release, but an exact date and price have yet to be confirmed."
Plus, major online UK retailer, Play, has had GT5P penned it for that exact date for some time, so it's looking likely.
But "late March" is the current official word. We'll report with the official date the second Sony utters one.

If you own a diet PS3 (the 40GB version incapable of playing PS2 games) - your backwards-compatibility shortfalls could be remedied with downloadable PS2 games on PSN in future.
That was the hint dropped by Sony's PSN director Eric Lempel, who said the technology exists to make PS2 downloads possible.
"We haven't talked about that yet, but there are possibilities through technology and software emulation to make that possible," he told EGM magazine (via Kotaku).
Most PS2 games are below the 4GB mark so it's perfectly feasible.
PAL 60GB PS3s use software emulation to play PS2 games. If this feature was removed - presumably to cut production costs (which puzzled us to start with) - why would reinstating the software via downloads be any better?
This insinuates that the 40GB hardware is still capable of playing PS2 games. So surely Sony could just make the emulation software available as a cheap purchase (like a standalone patch), to allow 40GB owners the choice of paying to BC-up their console and play PS2 discs?

Dark Alex has released another update to his excellent Custom Firmware for the PSP:
Instructions.
- Copy UPDATE folder to /PSP/GAME and run the program.
If you are in 3.90 M33, that's all needed.
If you are in previous version, you need to download 390.PBP and put it in same folder or let
the program to download it for you.
Changes:
- Improvements in plugins loading code:
* Fixed some problems with problematic cards due to filesystem not mounted.
* Now plugins should read the faster.
* Problem fixed with lines with spaces at the end.
- Added the rest of regions to the recovery option fakeregion.
- (PSP SLIM): Added patches in nand ipl to allow Booster multiiplloader and TimeMachine iplloader to boot from nand.
Note: only 3.90 M33-2 and higher can be booted from nand in slim with those ipl loaders,
not official Sony firmwares or previous versions of M33.
Changes in updater:
- The 3.90 eboot downloading code is now more stable, no more freezes after selecting AP
- Memory stick write in the 3.90 downloading code is delayed the maximum possible for faster operation
(the system prefers big chunks of data written at once).

Title will feature multiplayer elements for both Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3
Following earlier reports based on comments made by Microsoft's Don Mattrick that Grand Theft Auto IV would feature "multiplayer support" that was "unique to 360", developer Rockstar Games has confirmed that both Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 editions of the game will feature multiplayer content.
"It's always something we've been open about, both versions will support online multiplayer capabilities," a Rockstar spokesperson told GamesIndustry.biz, although exact details on those capabilities have not been announced as yet.
Precisely what Mattrick meant by his comments is now unclear, although one possibility is that he may have instead been referring to the Xbox Live experience as "unique", rather than alluding to specific exclusivity of the title.
Grand Theft Auto IV is scheduled for release on both platforms on April 29.

Reaches milestone quicker than the PS2
Sony has confirmed to GamesIndustry.biz that the PlayStation 3 has sold over one million units in the UK.
The console was released in the UK on March 23 last year, meaning it has reached the milestone quicker than the PlayStation 2, which took 50 weeks to sell one million units.
Sony announced back in June 2007 that sales had hit the one million mark across the whole of Europe in just nine and a half weeks.
With sales of the most expensive home console reaching important milestones for Sony, publishers are becoming more confident in the format.
Last week, Electronic Arts stated that it expects the PS3 to outsell the Xbox 360 this year, clocking up between 5 and 6 million units in Europe and up to another 5.5 million units in North America.
Nintendo's Wii reached the one million mark in the UK within 38 weeks on sale, making it the fastest-selling home console in the region.
Microsoft's Xbox 360 sold one million units within 60 weeks.

Simmer down -- it's not like you haven't seen advancements in blue laser technology before, and even though the current format war may still be raging when either's successor rolls into town, Kaai and Soraa are already looking to the future. Reportedly, Khosla Ventures has invested in both of the aforementioned firms, and while company representatives aren't disclosing much at the moment, we do know that the duo is exploring ways to "exploit gallium nitride, which is also the basis for existing blue LEDs and blue lasers." Apparently, they'd like to concoct suitable replacements for conventional LEDs in the lighting market and make a showing in the optical data storage arena, too. But seriously, with 200GB Blu-ray discs, who needs to worry about the next best thing?

When PlayStation Network director Eric Lempell was asked by the mag if the now BC-less console kills any chance of offering PS2 games via the PlayStation Store, as it does for original PlayStation games, Lempel said "We haven't talked about that yet, but there are possibilities through technology and software emulation to make that possibles."
Lempell chose not to talk about "specific plans at this point" but that doesn't mean we can't hope. And pray. And start online petitions.

A release from a few weeks ago that i missed
heres the details from jas0nuk:
This is a 3.xx+ kernel app to display Tachyon, Baryon and Pommel version numbers of your PSP's motherboard.
It also displays the PSP model (TA-079, TA-081, etc.) based on this data.
Just copy the PSPident folder to your GAME/GAME3XX folder and run it. If you want, it will also run in the 1.50 kernel.
NOTE: If your PSP is detected as a TA-085 v2, it is the newest Slim revision which cannot write to the battery serial and therefore cannot be used to create a Pandora battery!
Information about the numbers printed:
Kernel version - internal version of the current kernel you are running the app on (could be either 1.50 or 3.xx if you're using OE/M33)
Tachyon - this seems to be the version of the chip which contains the CPU, ME and GPU.
Baryon - this is the version number of your PSP's Syscon (system control) chip
Pommel - the PSP's GPIO/watchdog which handles system events and shuts down in the event of a crash
Kirk - the PSP's main decryption/verification chip
Spock - secondary decryption chip, only used to decrypt data from the UMD discs
Note: these are internal SCE names for these devices, not names I made up xD
0.1a -> 0.1b
- Added KIRK version
- Added SPOCK version
(KIRK and SPOCK only known versions are 0010 and 0050 respectively, if you have another version, PM me)
0.1 -> 0.1a
- Added detection for "TA-079 v3" (Tachyon: 0x00200000, Baryon: 0x00040600) - I'm almost sure this is 79 rather than 81, as the tachyon which indicates a major revision has not changed. Though, who can say for sure?
~jas0nuk
Note: If it is unable to work out the motherboard model then your PSP has an unseen tachyon/baryon number. I'd appreciate if you could post the details here in that case.
