    Awful game, you can't play without an internet connection, and the pay outs for races were bad when the game launched, and Sony updated the game to make them WORSE to push you into microtransactions. I've never felt more insulted by a company when I payed full price for a game. I've played free mobile games that treated me with more respect. Do not buy.

    As a faithful and old player of the GT games since GT2, I canno't accept the greedy and utterly counterproductive move made by Polyphony and Sony with the 1.07 update.

Indeed, they have largely reduced the credits earned per race and it becomes ridiculously long and time-consuming, needless to say also ultra boring to earn new credits to buy new cars. Other modes than the solo mode are not rewarding at all, and the utmost shame is that a lot of cars are very expensive, some of them costing the equivalent of +30h of farming in terrible conditions. There are +400 cars in the game, and what we want as players is to be able to earn new cars at a regular pace to enjoy them, and not to have to wait 5 years before buying thisbeloved and long-desired 12m Jaguar.

    Polyphony created at the last minute before the release of the game extremely unaffordable MTs in prevision of such moves, and as of now you may spend 120e of real money just to buy ONE car if you cannot farm. This is absolutely unacceptable because we do not want to pay 1000 euros a full game, but not to be deceived by a game maker that already sells its game 80e. The endless maintenance today also proves that the compulsory online servers to play the solo was a bad idea and destroys the gaming experience for which we had very high expectations, considering the prestige of the games, and their past mistakes.

    It seems that Kazunogain and his teams don't learn ! The game is failing on some parts but stays a pretty good game who deserve a grade between 7 and 9, it is too bad to waste such an experience with bad decisions and treacherous MTs.

    If the policy regarding the reduction of credits flips back, I will reconsider my grade and will eventually regrade the game by a 7+.

    We'll be a lot to do that, so please hear us ! It's a massive and collective complaint (just check Reddit, Twitter, GTPlanet).

    I hope we'll be heard. Sincerely from France,

    Casino racing game. They just nerfed most in-game currency earnings in order to push microtransactions. They did this in patch 1.07 precisely 2 weeks after release which is Sony’s threshold for refunding a game.

    This is a warning. Don’t buy this game! They cut the credit reward to push miroctransaction. Extremely high price for a single car, alleged by the developer as being “real”. You should not pay $60 for a pay-to-play game! Sony should be punished by their greedy move.

    The game is great overall, but it lacks variety in races and the rewards and progression are crazy low and slow. For each track you have just a couple of races that you can finish with the same 3-4 cars. Great game but it fails to deliver.

    This game is pretentious, contrived, and boring. Polyphony had a shot at making the best ever Gran Turismo - lord knows they had the time - and yet they have come out with this. Insufficient cars, insufficient classic tracks, dull linear gameplay, annoying menus, and a focus on 'car culture' and 'history' that no-one asked for. Don't waste your money.

    FR : UNE HONTE !!
    un jeu que l'on paye 70€ qui requiert une connexion pour pouvoir jouer, et une incitation a utiliser la carte de credit apres leur derniere mise à jour.
    par exemple, j'ai vu une voiture valant 18,5 millions d'euros, à 20€ les 2 millions, faites le calcul, ca fait une voiture a plus de 180€, et si l'on veut gagner cet argent dans le jeu, etant donné qu'ils ont diminué les récompenses, c'est quasiment inaccessible....
    De plus ils ont communiqué sur le fait que l'on pourrait revendre ne voitures (pratique pour se faire des credits si on a une voiture en doublon) eh bien, communication mensongère, il est impossible de revendre ses voitures...
    j'etais ravi d'acheter ce jeu plein de promesses, je suis mintenant dégouté et j'ai la sensation d'etre pris pour un pigeon

    EN: A SHAME!!
    a game that you pay 70€ which requires a connection to be able to play, and an incentive to use the credit card after their last update.
    for example, I saw a car worth 18.5 million euros, at 20€ for 2 million, do the math, that makes a car worth more than 180€, and if you want to earn this money in the game, given that they have reduced the rewards, it is almost unreachable....
    In addition they communicated on the fact that we could resell cars (practical to get credits if you have a duplicate car) well, misleading communication, it is impossible to resell your cars...
    I was delighted to buy this game full of promise, I am now disgusted and I have the feeling of being taken for dummy

    Tweaking rewards doubles the amount of time players need to play. And this is a single-player game that has already been purchased. This change is to force players to spend more money to purchase in-game currency.

    This still plays like a ps1 game with poor physics. The game view has the car look too small and far. The characters look like ps1 polygon models. Poor designs poor gameplay. Car is more like it keeps going straight and camera turns itself along racetrack. Even an old racing game Real Racing 3 is better than gt7.

    I've been fan of GT, and of racing games, ever since the first GT came out on Playstation 1. So, I am ranking this game from the perspective of a racing veteran.

    I've been fan of GT, and of racing games, ever since the first GT came out on Playstation 1. So, I am ranking this game from the perspective of a racing veteran.
    The single player career in GT7 is excellent. Masses to do, masses to unlock. All the career missions, side missions, license tests and general racing will keep you busy for ages. Only negative side is, the career can only be played online, because the game only saves online. Meaning all career activities are unavailable offline.
    Handling of the cars feels pretty realistic, and there are driving assist for those who find it a bit too realistic.
    Visuals are mixed lot. Some circuits look brill on PS4Pro, others look like they were ported from Playstation 3..
    Framerate stays high at all times.
    Sounds are basic, engine sounds lack depth and tire screeching is constant and annoying. Luckily sound levels can be adjusted.
    Tuning parts selection is diverse, and tuning options, while not Project Cars 2 level, are still varied enough and all the important settings are there.
    Selection of cars is not that big, and many classics are missing. I assume lot of DLC cars will become available later, for a price. Similarly circuits, once you unlock them all, are not that many compared to competing game brands.
    Car painting and vinyls are bit cumbersome compared to Forzas. And you have to buy all special paints (metal paints, flakes etc) separately. And not in sets. No, you have to buy each special tone separately, so if you want to buy all metal paints, you have to unlock and buy them separately, pot by pot. Very awkward and silly.
    One more complain is AI drivers. They drive on tracks, and do not even pretend to compete against each other. Poorest AI in any modern racer for sure.
    To cap; I love the extensive single player career mode. Its the best I have seen in modern traditional racing games (Forza Horizons, while excellent, are more arcade racers, so do not count here). And the handling and tuning is very good too. And that is why I give the game 8/10, despite those faults I numbered. I've long wanted a traditional racer with proper career in single player, and now I got one.

    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.

Logged a lot of hours on GT3 A Spec with the official steering wheel. As I moved onto the PS3, I got a proper driving l seat along with the PC Logitech G25 Wheel, gear stick and pedal set. On PS4 this combo stopped working as they try pushing users to newer models. That said with the Drive Hub adapter it emulates newer wheels and works just like it did on PS3.

    I got GT Sport late in the day due to poor reviews. I got like a year later and eBay, with all the updates thought it was great. I got GT 7 on launch after discounts cost me about £52 not £70. I got the PS4 and paid the £10 upgrade so I can play on both consoles.

    GT7 is a great game and a big step up from GT Sport. A much more complete game. As I'm using a wheel I can't really comment on how well it plays with the dual sense. But with a proper wheel, especially a seat it's amazing.

    I response to all the crazy feedback in the "news cycle the past week" and users scores of 0. What a massive over reaction.

    I never spend real money on micro transactions, I'm cheap and it's kinda cheating anyway. I've amassed ~35 cars so far. Think I'm on menu book 18 or so. I'm enjoying "the grind" learning the game etc, building up to the faster more expensive cars.

    So I admit I wasn't affected by the servers being offline for 30 hours. I'd not played for a good few days due to work. But this down time is not on the same league as Cyberpunk being a buggy mess. Or Halo missing half of the normal features.

    On patch 1.07/1.08... maybe they were encouraging those that can't wait to spend real money... Maybe they were trying to balance the game? Maybe I'm not the target audience that was affected by the changes.

    Some people are upset that they paid £70 for a full game and therefore expect access to all the content day 1.
    In my view you get the rare cars for putting the effort in. Who really needs to drive every single car. Looking at my gt7 stats page on the web: Since launch I've logged in 7 days but only had time for 4 proper sessions of just under 2 hours each. I've earned 461,00p credits, driven 439km. I have kids so don't have much time to play / watch them play.

    I recently unlocked split screen multiplayer that you mentioned, but I'm playing through the cafe books. I also have access to online, but I'm too cheap to pay for PSN, so only special free weekends for me. I've nearly finished collector level 9. I own 6% of the cars.

    I'm on level 22 and completed 34% of the campaign. I've never bought a car and have 1,500,000 credits. I only by cars or tuning if I don't meet entry requirements or can't beat a race. It seems like you earn credits more easily in GT7. For me I'll be playing this game on and off for years.

    Some of the graphics continue to surprise me. I played a night to day race the other day, really like how the headlights reflect all over your car interior. When driving I really don't miss the proper ray tracing. The approximated equivalents look pretty damn convincing. I'd much rather have the 60fps, with the cinematic 30fps and ray tracing during menus and replays.

    I know mandatory online could be a problem for some. GT Sport for PS4 had the same thing. Luckily for me I have fast broadband so no online issues. If you were online I guess you can play music rally. I understand the requirement to avoid hacking, fake race times etc which would be a bigger concern.

    The benefit of online to me is that all my progress is in the cloud and I can switch between consoles and just carry on. I think PSN has a similar feature (Cloud Save), but I don't subscribe to that (no online racing for me)
    But the unique thing here is I can switch between PS4 and PS5 and back to PS4 no problem. Handy as my driving seat and rig is generally hooked up to my old PS4, with the PS5 downstairs for the kids.

Polyphony Digital and Sony have dropped the ball on this one. Unless y’all make it offline completely with online capabilities. It’s no use of keeping the game available for purchase especially when Gran Turismo I grew up playing wasn’t like this. Expand

    A fun and great title ruined by sheer company greed. A software update radically cuts credits for in-game successes and coerces players to purchase credits for real money. In a full-price game. Had I only suspected this before purchasing. Deeply disappointed. Especially annoyed by the producers response to the uproar.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Worst in the series. Graphics have barely changed since GT Sport, very little new cars and tracks after 5 years. Few road cars from the last 5 years are present and the Gr.3 category is outdated. Menu design is not intuitive. Unacceptable AI for a 2022 racing game and a poor career mode called GT Café with no actual racing as you chase the rabbit and encounter rubber-banding AI. Online is a complete disaster, Sport Mode hasn't been improved from GT Sport and lobbies are backwards and mostly deserted by now. The grind is the worst of all GT games with low race payouts to encourage microtransaction purchases. FOMO everywhere. Split screen is broken. Not possible to sell cars unlike every other main GT game. Many QOL features from GT Sport missing from GT7. The soundtrack is poor and reusing mostly Daiki Kasho tracks. To top it all off, PD are out of touch with what the community wants. Either something changes with the management of PD or GT8 will not be any better. Expand

By far the most impressive and well optimized next gen

    By far the most impressive and well optimized next gen ps4 release I've played. It hits way above the performance I believed was possible on a base ps4 and lacks no ps5 gameplay. Wow. I have little to no issues or bugs other than not being able to modify assists in splitscreen which Polyphony has ALREADY agreed to fix.
    Amazing and I will play this for years to come! People need some patience haha. Amazing

    The AI is a disaster, you always start last in a race and the first one is 30 seconds ahead of the others, the ia never goes off road or overtakes, it's really playing against a train.
    The gameplay is nice but too rigid. There are cars that don't turn at all. I can assure you that when I turn the wheel of a car at 90° it turns around in 1 second.
    The single player mode is useless, except

    The two player mode with two big black stripes is a shame.
    The third person view is horrible, you can't move it back much, it's almost stuck to the trunk.
    The impression of speed when you drive at 250 km/h is ridiculous.

    That's to say nothing about the absolute scum practices at work at polyphony los angeles in their debut version of GT. 2 weeks out they completely change race payouts to HALF to push people to either grind race after race after race after race for any cars at all, or buy credits. With real money. After one has already paid over 60 dollars for this piece of trash.

    That's to say nothing that if the servers go down for any reason you are out of the entire single player experience as well. That's to say nothing about this so called car collector game with 1/3 the cars of the last gran turismo entry.

    Any one of these could be an overwhelming reason why you wouldn't want to buy this, but when you slap it all together this is actual insult to anyone who's played literally ANY GT title before this one. This is garbage, if you can't refund this, call your credit company and issue a chargeback.

The decision to lean so heavily on manipulative and greedy MTX practices is just disgusting. No, I should not have to be reminded to "fill up" on credits through the PS Store. I should be able to sell my cars, and I should not have to see races see a decline in credit rewards through patches. It's a shame that one of my favorite franchises of all time has been brought to its knees by this silly always-online requirement and poor business decisions. Gran Turismo 2 is one of my favorite games of all time, it helped inspire my love of cars at a young age. That game is still playable today, will GT7 be playable in 20 years? Probably not.

    Underneath it all, yes, the game itself is good. The driving physics are awesome!!!
    I'm just concerned that Sony is going to throw away their legacy when these titles inevitably go offline, GT7 will likely, at some stage, be unplayable forever. PlayStation, this is the WRONG DIRECTION for your company and brand, it is shameful!

    I feel like the industry has just absolutely abandoned what I love about games in favor of catering to whales for an extra buck. Fallout 76, (my last time posting to Metacritic) was a complete joke and unfortunately, GT7 is right alongside it in its current state. Both of my favorite franchises now have a huge stain on their legacy and history. It's just a sad time to be a gamer.

    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.
