One of the main reasons I was keen to get a PSP was the news that GT4 was going to be ported over to the Sony portable device. I guess ported is the wrong word, as by all accounts its going to be a tweaked version of GT4 specifically for the PSP, and is going to be called GT4-Mobile.

First touted for a Christmas 2005 release, the game was put back to April due to delays in converting the game to run well on the PSP. Well, April is drawing near, and news on GT4 being ready for release is quiet. Too quiet.

A quick trawl of the usual PSP hangouts and news forums results in little or no concrete evidence that the PSP version of GT4 exists, nevermind a game exisiting and ready for release in April. A few sites have shifted away from an April date and moved towards a Spring date, opening up the possibility of the GT4-mobile version being delayed until late May.

If anyone has any news on the PSP GT4 release, I’d love to hear from you. I’d prefer concrete facts backed up with sound evidence, but then I’m a rumour junky so anything will suffice, so long as its GT4 and PSP related.

In some ways I’m glad there isn’t a huge amount of hype around GT4, it means the developers can concentrate on creating a PSP game that is worthy of the GT4 badge, lets just hope its comes sooner rather than later, and lives up to the vision I have in my head of how it should play.
