    They really know how to take the fun out of racing. After playing it for several hours, the campaign is bare bones and mediocre, the licenses are incredibly strict with some being impossible. The driving HUD and options are unintuitive and poorly designed. There are better racing games out there than this one, don’t play it. This is also excluding that this is for some reason always onlineThey really know how to take the fun out of racing.

    It feels like a mobile game: auto-drive, auto-brake, auto-steer, auto everything; requires a constant internet connection, even for singleplayer; infested with all sorts of microtransactions you can imagine, and even with some more on top of it. The game manages to both look dated, and still lag like hell. And those loading times are just ridiculous.

    Been a huge fan since GT2 but this game really doesn't do it for me.

    The low payouts, the forced cafe campaign, not being able to sell cars and buy the cars i really want.
    The always online, the unpredictable physics, lack of AI and proper races.
    You're only doing time trials and grinding to get the cars you want, the fun GT4 and GT2 used to bring me are completely sucked out of the game.

    Sony Nerfea los circuitos donde se conseguían créditos; con la actualización 1.07
    El juego No bebe tener Online obligatorio y se hace patente con la actualización 1.07
    GT 7 va muy bien en la PS4 y se ve muy bien y va muy fluido.
    Los gráficos mejoran bastante. increíble PS4 si que tiene potencia para correrlo tan bien y tan suave

    Why are you selling the 2015 game at full price? The graphics are at the level of 2015. No improvements. Departures during the race! Online is dead on the release of the game.. Sony you killed the game. This is a masochist simulator. Why did you enter transactions for $ 30 per car model??? With such transactions, the game should be free to play and free. There is no support. I hung upWhy are you selling the 2015 game at full price? The graphics are at the level of 2015. No improvements. Departures during the race!

    How to call it? Grind Turismo? Greed Turismo?
    Polyphony digital hit their series with a shovel on the face then buried it alive.
    GT7 is a pure example of disgusting greediness. I play GT series since the first installment on PSX, I stopped after the 4th. I was hopping for GT to come back to it's original spirit. It did it in some ways, especially after a worthless GT Sport. Otherwise

    Otherwise the game itself could be good... If you could play offline, earn fair money and without microtransactions...
    What is the point of not being able to play solo mode when there isn't Internet connection or the servers are down? What a joke.

    So the patch 1.07 and 1.08 cut the earning by half? Seriously? And Kazunori Yamauchi said "I want to make GT7 a game in which you can enjoy a variety of cars lots of different ways, and if possible would like to try to avoid a situation where a player must mechanically keep replaying certain events over and over again." So why you cut earnings by half?

    The engine swapping system is outrageous: you need to get engines with their stupid roulette?
    The cars are nice looking on PS4 but the tracks are really bland and feel empty.
    I have to say it: Gran Turismo is dead, Forza is way better since many years now. I'm glad I can play it on Steam.

    Greed Turismo makes me want to puke.

    Nice game really but making the game so that it’s always online and changing the credits lower and saying it’s not about the micro transactions BS I tell you . I enjoy the game but damn this way it becomes a grind even more then it all was

    No game that has a single player connection requirement deserves any better.

    Other than beautiful graphics, the predatory nature of forcing micro transactions to get the best cars is a huge turn off. The tracks to make money were nerfed making it even harder/impossible to grind for the best cars. This is a $60 game and that makes it even more ridiculous.

    I am going to keep this review short.i have chosen to give this a score of 1 due to a couple of reasons. Firstly, this game has gone in the direction of online only. Just recently we had an incident where the game was offline for over 24 hours, leaving players unable to play any single player cafe races, missions, license tasks, drive their hard earned cars, earn credits, tune their carsI am going to keep this review short.i have chosen to give this a score of 1 due to a couple of reasons. Firstly, this game has gone in the direction of online only. Just recently we had an incident where the game was offline for over 24 hours, leaving players unable to play any single player cafe races, missions, license tasks, drive their hard earned cars, earn credits, tune their cars and play online multiplayer. I could list more, such as car maintenance, and purchasing them using credits among others. Whilst multiplayer features going offline are understandable, singeplayer features being unavailable is a a mahore worry and for a game costing as much as it does, is unacceptable. Secondly, the credits system has been changed from previous entries in this series, to payout less per race. Combined with cars costing at time 8 to 10x what they would compared with previous titles makes it a grindy mess which is evidently due to the presence of microtransactions. Finally, the singplayer content is lacking when compared to GT2, 3, 4, 5, 6 at launch. Expand

    Played though story. Gameplay is good, but everything else sucks. I hope to get to have fund and not grind for no reason. This could have been a f2p game, then it would be ok

    I thought I bought a racing game. Instead I bought a platform for mtx. Greed toke over at PD and Sony. Had all the versions in the past, but this is my last one, both the game and console.

    Where to begin? I would have given it a zero, but racing is racing. Until greed steps in and then it’s all for one and one for themselves. Polyphony just keeps getting worse. They’ve not changed since gt sport nor has the game play changed. Blah, I believe this is my last time with this franchise.

    Sony going the way of EA and Rockstar. Always online DRM, micro transactions, RNG rewards and earnings nerfs to push you toward spending real money. RIP Gran Turismo. I’ll be skipping GT8.

    Utter **** I picked it up at half price and still feel ripped off. A great sim with loads of cars locked behind an egregious paywall. Some cars I want I know I'll never see.

    **** you Sony. **** you polyphony digital.

    Gran Turismo is dead.

    Micro transactions.
    They lowered some races prizes of races players grind.
    Always online for single player.
    To get some cars you have to grind and their reason is that they are expensive and difficult to get in real life so you can’t get them in the game unless you buy micro transactions.

    Collect hundreds of cars costing up to $40. Each patch will make it harder for you to earn in-game currency. (VIPs have everything unlocked from the start) Polyphony 2022

    I was dumb enough pay for the more expensive version. As others have mentioned, single player campaign requires an internet connection. Take right now for instance. THEY screwed up their own game with their own update 1.07 and now they have shutdown the game for an "extended period" during primetime and have the nerve to ask for our patience!

    No multiplayer unless you go through their bot campaign like a pig on a wheel.
    No offline mode unless you are online.
    No online multiplayer unless you finish their "Cafe". ?? Menu transition is slow AF. Remove the long intro/startup time. Servers were down the whole day which turned the game into a glorified demo. Cars are expensive. Tracks and events are locked unless you finish

    GT7 doesn’t feel like a truly new game – more like an upgraded version of Sports. But it’s par for the course for the series: each generation, Polyphony Digital makes a solid foundation and then builds upon it. [Issue#260, p.38]

    Gran Turismo 7 strikes the perfect balance between accessibility and realism in a way that caters to casual players and veterans. It's a gorgeous racing game with a surprisingly addictive gameplay loop thanks to the new Café and Menu Books systems. While some modes are certainly not as strong as others, Gran Turismo 7 checks almost all the boxes of what a driving simulator should be.

    A return to form for Gran Turismo. After too many years, Polyphony Digital crafted an almost perfect iteration of Gran Turismo, where past and present blend together for an epic journey through the car culture.
