"According to the Famitsu inteview with Kazunori Yamauchi,
Gran Turismo HD will have two SKUs on the PS3. One of these games will ship with no cars, all of them will be purchased via microtransactions.The other,
Gran Turismo HD: Premium, will ship with two courses and 30 cars, with an additional 30 cars and an additional two courses online at a later date. The Premium game is being considered a prologue to the PS3's eventual Gran Turismo 5."
Hunh?... Ok, so here's how it works.
Gran Turismo HD: Classic will be focused on online, and players will start with no cars or courses available to them. Instead, they will need to purchase all of their cars and courses to race on. The pricing reported in Famitsu indicated that cars would cost between 50-100 yen ($0.43-$0.85) and courses would be between 200-500 yen ($1.71-$4.26). How many cars and courses are there? About 750 cars and 50 tracks available for purchase in
Gran Turismo: HD Classic. So the full game will be worst case scenario (do you even need to include 'worst case scenario' after a game's estimated price surpasses its own console launch price? Wtf!) $750 + $225 = $975.
If you wish to depress yourself further, read the rest over on
