That was actually announced for Netflix way back. God of War is an Amazon TV show, I think Twisted Metal TV is actually already in production (or at least some of the cast and staff had been announced), and Gran Turismo is getting both a movie and I think a TV show too.

Whatā€¦ what the fuck could it mean for there to be a ā€œGran Turismo movieā€. Itā€™s just racing cars. Itā€™s a synonym for ā€œrace car movieā€. Unless the plot is about a driver who races sixty times on the same track to upgrade from a hatchback to a 90ā€™s Japanese street car?

I hope the Gran Turismo movie is about all those e-commerce thumbnail people from the tooltip popups in GT7.

weā€™re definitely going to have to get a UT2004 game or two in (though I presume itā€™ll still be possible after, just without the server browser?)

The Gran Turismo thing is iirc based on a true story of someone who learned to drive race cars by playing video games or sth

There was even a ladder-system (coop between Nissan and Yamauchi) that prepped drivers to become professional racecar drivers; Kastumasa Chiyo, Jann Mardenborough, Harry Tincknell, and a spanish Driver whose name I forgot are the three that are probably best known outside SuperGT/Super Formula, though there were more (that didnā€™t make waves across the ponds).

That endeavour included the wonderful oddball Skyline GTR LMP1 machine that, due to technical difficulties and insane timeline, coupled with budgetary issues, tackled the Le Mans 24h as a front-wheel drive only machine and spent a lot of time in the garage due to the need to replace front brake discs multiple times, before the last surviving car faded away in the morning hours iirc.
Tbh, you could just release that as a movie and you would have a good story to tell, not sure why they need to come up with these contrived things :smirk:

for the record:
Alive Hoon sounds like my kind of guilty trash watch, bring it over asap pleaaaase :servbotsalute:
