    Servers are closed, so you can't play so many DLCs. Gameplay and graphics are amazing—one of the best graphics for the PS4, but I can't play the full game in 2023.

    If it wasn’t for the delisting and server shutdown, it would be a contender for one of the best racing games on PlayStation 4. Atmosphere was beautiful, car list was great, the handling was amazing, and overall, if you want a Gran Turismo on PlayStation 4 before Sport, then this is the game for you. I give it a 9 out of 10 without the DLCs.

    First I need to say: never play SONY Gran Turismo 7 in "Ray Tracing enabled" mode, because the quality is terrible, it seems to be playing on a SONY PS3, the image resolution at the time of rendering seems to be reduced to 720p and it seems to be just stretched to 1080p/2160p.

    And even in Performance mode, which will present the best graphics quality and resolution (it appears to be    First I need to say: never play SONY Gran Turismo 7 in "Ray Tracing enabled" mode, because the quality is terrible, it seems to be playing on a SONY PS3, the image resolution at the time of rendering seems to be reduced to 720p and it seems to be just stretched to 1080p/2160p.

    And even in Performance mode, which will present the best graphics quality and resolution (it appears to be rendered at 1080p) still the graphics quality of the SONY Gran Turismo 7 game is absolutely disappointing, considering the 9.2 TFLOPs of graphics capacity promised by SONY for the SONY PS5.

    Just to give you an idea, the Take-Two GTA5 (SONY PS4 Pro version) looks better graphically than the SONY GT7 on the SONY PS5 console.

    In fact, running SONY Drive Club game (SONY PS4 version as it was never remastered even for SONY PS4 Pro), through Backward Compatibility mode on SONY PS5, SONY Drive Club still looks better graphically than GT7 on SONY PS5.

    When I say GRAPHICALLY, I'm referring to how real (close to reality) the image looks, I'm not referring to frames per second or resolution.

    Honestly, my disappointment is such that I would rather pay this price for the SONY Drive Club game remastered for SONY PS5 than this SONY Gran Turismo 7 game that disappointed me horribly in terms of Graphics Quality.

    SONY, forget about Ray Tracing, we want Quality Graphics!

    When it comes to gameplay, I still prefer SONY Drive Club. The only things I like about Gran Turismo 7 are the Museum, the Car Mall, and the fact that it's the same Car Simulator that follows the pattern of the Gran Turismo series, in addition to keeping the same Tracks from the series, as I did.

    But Graphically, the picture is so disappointing that I feel that I was assaulted by the high price charged by SONY for this SONY GT 7 game with these graphics that when playing on SONY PS5, it looks like they are actually being run by SONY PS4 Pro when it is running. in "Performance mode", and appears to run on a SONY PS3 when running in "Ray Tracing mode enabled".

    But the worst thing about a game, which is marketed in physical media, is the internet connection required to play, especially Career and/or Single Player mode.
    In fact, I really liked being able to play with split screen, me and 03 friends competing, with the screen divided into 04, using the same Console.

    That's why it's not worth buying the SONY PS5 or the SONY PS4... oh, how much regret.... The best is GT 6 on SONY PS3, there's no way... Besides, I have a 3D Projector with Active 3D glasses, and I have many Blu-ray Disc 3D movies, but only SONY PlayStation 3 supports 3D.

    SONY PS5 and SONY PS4/PS4 Pro will have an advantage over SONY PS3 only in the fact that it supports SONY PS VR, but the graphics quality on SONY PS5 should be much better than SONY PS4/PS4 Pro on VR.

    Anyway, the best game for SONY PS4/PS4 Pro & SONY PS5 is without a doubt the game: SONY Drive Club.
    The last best SONY Gran Turismo was GT6 for Career mode, and GT Sport for graphics.

    But between GT Sport and Drive Club, I prefer Drive Club, especially since Drive Club's graphics are better even than GT7's graphics (which are already better than GT Sport's graphics).
    That is, Drive Club is better than all games in the Gran Turismo series, including Gran Turismo 7, Drive Club is better, especially in graphics quality.

    GT7 is better than GT Sport in graphics quality, but in gameplay, GT7 is the worst game in the history of the Gran Turismo series.
    GT Sport is better than GT6 in graphics quality, but in gameplay, GT Sport is the second worst game in the history of the Gran Turismo series.

    GT6 is the best game in the history of the Gran Turismo series.
    On SONY PS3, there is no better racing game than GT6.
    On SONY PS4/PS4 PRO, PS5 there is no better racing game than SONY Drive Club, although it has not been remastered even for the PS4 Pro, so there will never be a remastered version for the PS5.

    The studio that produced SONY Drive Club was shut down by SONY for making the game stupidly better (in graphic quality) and better looking than any other racing game, humiliating the Gran Turismo series games in such a way that SONY shut it down. the Studio that produced Drive Club, in addition, SONY forbade the remastering of the Drive Club game for SONY PS4 Pro and SONY PS5, as the game was so graphically beautiful that it would make people repulse spending money and play Gran Turismo games.

    Gran Turismo Sport was released to try to make people forget about Drive Club, but the failure of "advance in graphics quality" between GT Sport and GT7 is so massive that it's impossible not to compare it to Drive Club and note that both, GT Sport and GT7, are inferior to the Drive Club, graphically.

    I recommend your last GT game to be GT6, only available for SONY PS3. If you have a SONY PS4/PS4 Pro/PS5, I strongly recommend, just play Drive Club & Drive Club VR. Stop wasting time with Gran Turismo Sport and Gran Turismo 7!    … Expand

    It's an interesting game, all kinds of races that can exist in a car ride are available in this game, in addition to the ability to select stages selectively and choose the time and weather conditions, this game also has Tour, basically available from the very beginning. but the other modes must be purchased separately, the online competitions of this game were also attractive (currently,It's an interesting game, all kinds of races that can exist in a car ride are available in this game, in addition to the ability to select stages selectively and choose the time and weather conditions, this game also has Tour, basically available from the very beginning. but the other modes must be purchased separately, the online competitions of this game were also attractive (currently, this game is no longer serviced for the online part) two types of challenge competitions in which players must break the challenge designer's record and competitions There was online multiplayer, but I am most interested in the main menu songs of this game, the main menu songs have a really relaxing feeling and convey the feeling that you want to go outside after listening to these songs.

    Shutdown servers mean buying 1/4 of a game. Wish I could've seen what was here. No compelling reason to play. Very limited vehicle selection, no customization, small number of tracks. I only gave a 1 because it didn't pull a GT7 with microtransactions

    It's simply one of the most dissapointing Racing games i've ever played. Graphics are okay and i like the concept behind the game, but steering and drive control are simply horrible designed. That the servers are down and 90 percent of it's features are not longer avaiable is also a bad joke. Thanks god, this game never gets an sequel.

    This is the best looking car racing game I have played. Cars and weather is done beautifully here. If you are into driving simulators you probably won't like this one because Driveclub is more an arcade game. It is a shame that you cannot customise and buy cars. You can only change car paint. That's a shame but despite that this game is seriously fun to play.

    The game is average at best. Physics are pretty good and it's overall balanced. The biggest issue lies with the games identity. It doesn't really have one.

It can be really frustrating with some cars on some race tracks that are nearly impossible to master, the AI that is incredibly hard to beat, but it has a ton of content and can be really challenging.

    Driveclub is a must-have for any PS4 racing fan. It’s ideal for anyone who enjoys a good arcade racer. It’s challenging, but teaches you how to overcome every single one. Because of this, Driveclub is far more rewarding than its peers. This coupled with fantastic graphical fidelity, impressive sound design, and adrenaline-inducing sense of speed makes Driveclub one of the best racing games available on current-gen systems.

    When you're on the track Driveclub is stunning to behold, but it's held back by a lack of event types. [Christmas 2014, p.74]

    The sense of speed offered by Driveclub reminded me of the brilliant first GRID and I was having a lot of fun until I realized that cars are indestructible. Whether you stroke a wooden fence or smash into another vehicle at 300 km/h your car drives exactly the same afterwards. [Dec 2014, p.66]
