PlayStation 3 owners are suiting up for the release of Gran Turismo 5 Prologue later this month, but there's a long wait ahead of them before the full game arrives.

In response to a comment on PlayStation.Blog, Sony associate producer Chris Hinojosa-Miranda confirmed that Gran Turismo 5 will not be released before 2009.

"To further clarify," Hinojosa-Miranda said, "GT5 is still about a year away."

That far-off release date is not slowing Sony down though. Gran Turismo 5 Prologue is due in stores today, 26 March, and there will be a downloadable version available from the PlayStation Store on 27 March.
