Sony UK boss: GT5 will "take your breath away"

With the launch of Polyphony Digital’s hotly anticipated Gran Turismo 5 imminent, Sony Computer Entertainment UK boss Ray Maguire wants to make one thing abundantly clear – prepare to have your breath taken away when you first clap eyes on the game.

Chatting with the folks at Eurogamer, Maguire acknowledged that the gaming landscape has changed substantially over the last couple of years, though firmly believes punters are still interested in the venerable racing franchise.

"I was thinking, well, the world has moved on a little bit, social gaming has emerged, people are accepting smaller, bite-sized bits of gaming at very low value," he said, during a chinwag with Eurogamer.

"Then I saw it, I saw the detail of it, and it does take your breath away. You go, 'Oh my God, now I understand it.'"

Keeping the hype train chugging along the tracks, the executive went on to highlight how significant the brand proved during the days of the PlayStation 2, and heaped praise on series creator Kazunori Yamauchi’s continued passion and drive for the series.

"Clearly one of the games which was very important for PS2 was Gran Turismo," he added. "It took the machine to the limits, and it continued to do that all the way through to the last iteration.”

"What's interesting is that there's been nothing until now on GT. That's because the hardware that we have now allows for so much more freedom. The passion and the drive for excellence that Kazunori has is taking him all the way through to try and push the technology we have now."
