The release date for Gran Turismo 5 hops around so much we're going to call the game The Flea from now on. From a couple of dates late this year to early next year in Japan to possibly, maybe, potentially a Summer release for the U.S. It's not that we can't keep up anymore -- we might just be tired of trying. That summer date for our shores isn't even set: the folks at Sony are "eying" that window.

How you say "enough" in French: Citroen releases sixth GT teaser 1 year ago on Autoblog

In a move more "Um, yeah..." than "Oh yeah!", Citroen has released the sixth teaser image of the car that will, one of these days, be revealed entirely to the world, all at once, front and back. We aren't even sure if this qualifies as a tease, since getting a glimpse at a front end we've ...

Hanging back: GT by Citroen rear comes up for air 1 year ago on Autoblog

It's time for your next dose of the GT by Citroen concept. To the commenter who wrote that the front of the car looks like a catfish -- well, in a victory for symmetry, the back of the car looks like a catfish, too, and a couple of other gilled sea creatures. No matter its fishy similarities, ...

More intensity: 4th Citroen GT teaser image 1 year ago on Autoblog

VIDEO: Audi R8 puts angels in danger in Midnight Club: LA 1 year ago on Autoblog

Midnight Club: LA is on its way, and the developers at Rockstar Games just released a new video of an Audi R8 doing its thing through the concrete jungle. The name of the game: arcade.

Coming to a console near you: Midnight Club: Los Angeles 1 year ago on Autoblog
