Microsoft’s Phil Spencer has taken a swipe at Sony regarding Gran Turismo 5.

In an interview with GamaSutra , Spencer had a dig at Polyphony and Sony when asked if Microsoft’s strategy was to use the first party organisation to make AAA exclusives.

"Absolutely. And to ship them! That's an important part of our strategy,” he said.

“ Look at Forza shipping next month: the definitive racing sim this generation. You could say it's the only racing sim that's shipping this generation.”

Ooof. Gran Turismo 5 is due out in Japan in March next year, but no US or European dates have been confirmed.

In the meantime, check out the first official screens and stay tuned for our Forza review.
