di: MohrOrmai si avvicina il lancio di GT5 Prologue e pare che il Nord America potrà scaldare le gomme in vista del prossimo 17 Aprile. Il prezzo, come già abbiamo avuto modo di dire qualche giorno fa, sarà di 39.99 dollari statunitensi e sarà disponibile sia sul PSN che in versione Blu-ray. La notizia più interessante, notata scorrendo le righe del comunicato stampa di SCEA, è che vi saranno probabilmente 60 auto invece delle 37 della versione giapponese. Saranno disponibili da subito o via PSN a pagamento? Per ora non è dato saperlo. Di seguito il comunicato ufficiale con in grassetto la frase più significativa.
