Sony heeft vandaag bekend gemaakt dat de games van de Gran Turismo franchise meer dan 50 miljoen keer over de toonbank gegaan zijn. Tien jaar geleden kwam de allereerste Gran Turismo game uit, nu zitten we op ruim zeven Gran Turismo titels. Kazunori Yamauchi, het brein achter Gran Turismo, is zijn fans natuurlijk erg dankbaar:

"Initially, Gran Turismo was an alternative racing game, kind of an outsider in the genre. And we made it thinking that it would be okay as long as it reached out to the select few who would agree with us. So this figure - 50 million units - is simply astounding.
“I would really like to thank all the fans who have supported the Gran Turismo series over the years, for all their passion and love of the game. We'd like to continue making every effort to create cutting edge, high quality games, so that we don't disappoint anyone's expectations."
