Gran Turismo 5 Demo is Nigh!

Beating out the debut of prologue by nearly two months, Gran Turismo 5 demo should be hitting PS Stores everywhere on the 20th of this month.

"With the Tokyo Motor Show only a week away, Sony is already prepping for a huge unveiling on October 24th. There are rumors around what Sony could possibly be revealing, but for now the more important news at hand is the fact that GT5 Prologue will be a downloadable demo as of October 20th. That's right, a free download."

"Chances are that this is the same demo shown at Tokyo Game Show (TGS). Most of you who didn't attent TGS will be able to see calendar and other functions in the new Prologue. If that's the case and the Prologue demo is the same one shown at the video game show last month, this upcoming download should feature Alfa Romeos, Nissans, Ferarris and other vehicles, a total of 16, as well as three tracks, Suzuka, Fuji and Daytona."

The difference between the demo and prologue is probably the fact that the demo will have less cars, less tracks and most likely will have online play nixed. (Here's to hoping for split-screen or LAN play) But still, free is better than none.

Update: Kikizo is reporting that the demo would hit japanese stores on the 26th, which makes more sense given that their updates are on Friday. (as opposed to our updates on Thursday)
