Kevin Butler made Gran Tursimo 5 awesome

Kaz Yamuchi? Ha! Kevin Butler’s the real man behind Gran Turismo 5. A hysterical (especially the end) new commercial featuring the “VP of Add More Awesome” proves it.

Let’s just say that if it weren’t for Butler, there would only be 500 cars, no car damage, no Nascar, and no online community in Gran Tursimo 5. Luckily, Polyphony Digital listened to the man’s genius.

Check out the clip below. The game’s out exclusively for PlayStation 3 on November 24.

  1. Heh, I also like the fact that his name is behind EVERY car as he walks along at the start, damn… True thing is though that SHOULD be his job title, he pretty much makes everything a touch more awesome. :P

    Love it, love it. His laugh at the end is really well done.

    The man’s a genius. Just gotta wait a few more days for release. X)

    By the way there’s a typo in the title, Turismo is missing an ” i “.
