    GT Sport is my first experience with Gran Turismo and it was enjoyable in the campaign mode, until I reached the professional league. My main problem with this game is the AI.

    One thing is making a race challenging, a completely different one is to give them 50+ SECOND LEAD over 10 laps ! ... Are the devs serious? Is that any fun or competitive? NO! Its scripted ! No matter what car I take or how hard I try, the last racer always remains first... Even when chasing him for over 2 laps and a 3+ second difference... If I'm going to chase the AI, can I at least be in the Top 10 for fck sake ?!
    Another con, lots of cars in game are ridiculously overpriced, like the GT40 for an example, even the Miura !
    The good things however are the handling, the cars, tracks and love the daily car rewards.

The online racing is good and after many updates I think the penalty system is very good. I just wish there was a way to report bad users but the bad users do suffer from penalties and a bad sportsmanship rating which helps kick them out of your class eventually. No voice chat in the race lobbies is a bad omission also which makes no sense with this generation. The graphics are amazing, racing physics are great. this feels like a Gran Turismo game if you like the series you will enjoy this game. After years of update this is well polished with so many tracks and cars. If you buy now which is always under $20 you getting a steal for your money. The career mode now exist in GT League but is still a bit shallow and was an afterthought. If it had a better career mode it would be a 10. Looking forward to Gran Turismo 7. Expand

    The developers tried to move on with this game in a new direction which succeeded only in a few parts. Basically it was a multiplayer game with a few bonus missions for singleplayer. Not for everyone.

    The excellent car physics and the GT spirit are there, but otherwise, Sport reeks of an unessential spinoff. A little too streamlined and a bit uninspired.

    A good racing simulator and nothing beyond that. It looks good. I tried to race with my friends, but then i saw how much it can be boring. I know it is a simulator but this game is ONLY for simulation lovers. Do not buy this game if you like arcade racing games, because you will get bored very fast.

    Another chapter by Polyphony Digital. Four years after the sixth title in the “canonical” series of Gran Turismo, the Sport title ranks as a difficult spin-off to interpret.

    The graphics are a nice glance, but certainly not the best on PlayStation 4. There are still some limits on the landscapes, but nothing scandalous.
    The gameplay, however, has the same problems that could be identified in Gran Turismo 6: AI that is anything but current, indeed not very "scalable" and decidedly not very competitive for the most trained player. The damage is still absent, and frankly, it could be added.
    The plot is absent, but being a sports game there is nothing to complain about. The cups are sufficient, yet the cars are fewer than GT6 and the circuits are few. Too few for a game that would like to be so close to the motorsport enthusiast.
    It is never easy to talk about sports video games, much less about cars. The vote would be barely sufficient in absolute terms. You certainly could have asked for more. It lacks innovation and the courage to dare something.

Good engine, good tech demo with little meat on the bones. Also some cute concepts like mileage exchange that went no where. Once GT7 comes out Sport will be long forgotten. Expand

The FIA championship (aka the crown jewel) is still geared for the elite, but the vast majority of participants can expect to simply fill the grids. If you’re not into eSports then you can just bypass this mode. And if you’re looking for tracks, this game has you covered witha selection of the most banal cookie cutter race tracks from around the world.

    Still haven’t bothered with photomode or the livery editor, which are a hefty potion of the game. I’d rather drive than create tacky paint jobs and take pictures of them.

    The offline campaign is not a campaign but simply individual racing series. Some fun can be had, but there’s nothing to work toward other than grinding for credits. Incidentally you’ll need to farm lots of credits for many of the obscenely priced cars. And if you already worked to obtain them in GT6 it’s all a waste of time unless it’s for bragging rights or (you guessed it) to take pictures or paint them.

    Arcade mode is where I finds myself gravitating, creating my own races from the ample settings and options. It takes someone with a thick skin and the patience of a saint to deal with the online racing.

    The sounds are vastly improved from past games, and the graphics are always the best in the business, but I need more than just a pretty face to remain engaged.

    I'm gonna start off with the bad and finish with the good.
    The things that I really didn't like with this game is the huge lack of car customisation. I don't mean need for speed type of course. You can change the way the car handles and suspension. But why cant you change individual car parts? All you got is power up or down. No way to change things like breaks, turbo, etc... It's so

But why cant you change individual car parts? All you got is power up or down. No way to change things like breaks, turbo, etc... It's so basic. I understand it thou as they mainly want you to race in standard cars and adjust the power to make the car qualify for the race. I just think it would be more fun if you could fine tune your car. Maybe have both and adjusting the power installs parts for you if you're someone who doesn't understand that sort of stuff.
    No camera control. This is so weird why this game doesn't have no camera control. You got look behind but you cant look around the car to see what damage has been done or to have a look at the lovely trees as you drive past.
    Lack of driving lessons (driving missions) I'm not sure if this is me having bad memory but I am sure GT4 has loads more then 48 which is how many GT sport has.
    Lack of cars. Why did GT4 have over 500 cars from its release date and GT sport has 324 after several updates? Its like these days we get less content to play around with than what we had over a decade ago.
    Why cant you choose a racetrack and car offline outside a campaign mode? Every racing game is the world has this option except this. It cant be hard to add a custom race option.
    Millage points are dumb and I struggle to see the point in them.
    Better damage and crashing. When you hit a wall at 200mph you bounce off it like bumpers cars and then have a couple scratches. It would be more fun if the bumper of something came off and the front crumpled up. (I won't take points off my review for this though as I understand this is a driving simulator and not crash testing simulator)
    To summarise these points. Improved car customisation so when you increase the power of the car you can stop it from handling and breaking like complete crap. Whats the point in giving players the option to make a R34 Skiline go over 200mph if at every corner you have to break a mile before it so you don't slide into the crash barrier and flip 5 times. So you never actually get to use the extra power. I know this isn't a street racing game but still would at least be nice to be able to change the break discs.
    Lacking overall content compared to previous games in the series.

    This game does have some good points though. Racing feels overall solid which is expected as GT has always done a good job at this. The graphics are great although I must say Forza does look slightly better but I think GT7 has a good chance at taking this back judging from what we have seen.
    This game doesn't have the largest choice of cars but it does have a wide range of years to choose from. Some cars being classics, some more modern. I just wish there was allot more.
    A great choice in race tracks granted not many.
    And that's about it.

    I hope gran turismo 7 isn't as basic as this game. Game companies these days do the bare minimum, they see sales start dropping and then they think the series is dying. Its not that at all. They need to pack more content in their games and add new huge ideas to keep people interested. If you remove content people like from a game than the people who bought the game specially for those things aren't gonna buy the new titles. Thats more then obvious so I cant get my head round why so many companies are doing this? Like solo arcade mode and driving licenses. 2 things this game use to have but now it doesn't and there is nothing that replaces it either.

The campaign is bland, and consists of doing the same tracks over and over until you finally reach the next track. You can only do this so many times until it starts gnawing at your brain. There's online racing, which isn't anything special either. You race with other people for championships and that's it. There's no other modes. The car selection? I'm not even going into that. Expand

The good thing which is the only thing I really loved about this game are the costum liveries, which can be created or downloaded. When I think about this game for a little longer I know that I don't feel like playing a Gran Turismo game, as I played every single GT title so far. The Driving licence is changed in something more easier, it is not challenging as before, and also it is not required to complete it to advance in the Career Mode as it was on previous titles. All in all you don't feel like this being a Gran Turismo game after all, but at least they didn't threw a bunch of almost identical cars like they did in GT6 ( 5 almost identical Mazda Roadster just with different statistics, what a waste of time and storage) Expand

    The game does well to feel authentic, in terms of sounds and track gameplay, you do feel like you're putting the pedal to the metal, especially in first person mode - The detail, natural feel in terms of movement, gravity and weight is spot on.

    The replays are just sick, you do find yourself endlessly racing the Nurburgring just to watch the replay, to see how you carve the corners, the glowing discs and sparks etc.

    The overall UI is slick, polished (one of the best looking for a racing game) but is slow, for a UI that resembles a cars infotainment system or computer, you can't quickly get around screens quickly.

    Being able to create liveries and the vast array of alloys, paint colours and cars is great, there's always a new car to customise, however. This whole customisations of cars only pays off when you want to share liveries or take pics of them via Scapes. In game, there doesn't feel like there's enough exposure of your vehicle to warrant the detail, it's all very scripted... predictable.

    You can like before, mess with the cars engine etc but this seems to be pointless unless you're racing with friends in a private game, as when you play online, your specs are all matched.

    The main downfall with this game is that it's very predictable and there's nothing innovative or unexpected, no new modes that keep you interested in times when you're not winning races or finished the challenges or arcade.

    To really move this game on, they need to move out of the tried and tested linear worlds and explore the realm of open world or true custom racing.

    Also, the penalty system is broken in the game, you find yourself getting penalised because other more cunning drivers are able to exploit the penalty system against you.

    Gran Turismo Sport has improved massively since October 2017, there are now an average amount of cars and tracks, There are less bugs, less disconnections, and polished for an overall better experience to be had compared to at launch. If you plan to get this, here are a few things to note:
    1. This game's free DLC updates are essentially done. Each update only brings 1 car, if we're lucky.

    1. This game's free DLC updates are essentially done. Each update only brings 1 car, if we're lucky.
    2. This game is a "Live Service" type game. This means that almost all of what GT Sport has to offer is available online ONLY. When offline, you cant access your save (God forbid you win a long race, and suddenly your internet OR the game goes down for maintenance) and you can only access arcade mode, with a few selected cars for you to choose. Very lackluster for a game that was known to be the king of driving simulation!
    3. This game's community is nothing but toxic, begging, self promoting, skill shaming tw*ts. For an online game, especially on here, this is not a good thing. If you do not use a wheel, or even a $5,000+ pointless setup, expect people to hound at you on public lobbies (this game's equivalent to a casual, unranked game), and kick you for the slightest mistake.

    Rating: 5/10
    TL;DR: This game has massively improved as of December 2020, but the toxic community and live service crap continues to move along. I could rate this higher, maybe a 6 or a 7. However, as we get closer to the anticipated release of Gran Turismo 7 for the PS5, the future of this game's play-ability gets more and more dire with every new announcement and update that comes out. Will this game go away for good after the release of GT7? Will it get an offline update, and reach its true potential? We don't know, and it doesn't look good from here.

    But penalty system its just polyphony. They changed penalty system to a total disaster.
    You receiving penalties for BEING HIT! Only really serious hits are counted, but still hitted car gets penalty for hitting, for loosing the track, and need to start over. For putting other car to the fence you get MAYBE a 3s penalty and some MR points deducted, but that's nothing compare to the car on the fence which will loose about 10s :)
    That game is a serious scam.

    I've finally gotten around to playing what is one of only two simulation racing franchises on the PS4. And it's not bad.

    I'm not big into racing games, preferring to race my own C6 Corvette in real life (rarely). Also, I'm not much into multiplayer, so only played the single player portions of this game.

    My overall score basically comes down to having no games to compare this to, having not played a racing game since the 90's. In the game's current updated state, I found it to be slightly above average for what I was expecting, hence the "6".

    The game is set up like a mobile game, where you can spend real money to more quickly unlock the cars and upgrades you want. After playing the game a good 80 hours, I found no need to spend money and it didn't distract much from the experience, so I was pleased.

    The car selection is a little disappointing. It's heavily Japanese-based, which makes sense given it's a Japanese game. But I was a little surprised at the lack of famous classic European and American cars. My own C6 isn't there along with the C5, which were unstoppable monsters during their periods in racing. There's also an obvious lack of Porsche and Ferrari models. Though this isn't a huge deal since the cars all felt very similar. It basically came down to: the newer the car, the better it handled (primarily traction). For the most part, the older cars just seemed like they were on junk tires with junk suspensions.

    Car upgrades are passable, but a bit disappointing. You spend "mileage points" to unlock several levels of power or weight upgrades. Mileage points are gained pretty easily just by racing in the game. You can then dial the power or weight up or down within the range that you unlocked. So no "real" power train upgrades, such as buying actual parts for your engine. There's no real tire upgrades. You just have a list to choose from that are available for each race. Suspension upgrades don't exist, but like your tires, you can modify suspension/ride height settings at any time before a race. So it isn't bad, but is aimed at folks who just want to race with an even playing field rather than those who want to experiment with various parts.

    As for content, there's a bunch. Pages and pages of racing leagues where you can just jump in to races with set restrictions A driving school, where there's another huge page of "missions" to complete that are meant to improve your driving skills. Then there's the large number of mission challenges where you're asked to do a large variety of tasks, such as complete sections of tracks within set time frames, pass a certain number of cars without hitting him, and hitting top speeds within certain limits. And then there's the circuit experience, where it gives you turn-by-turn experience in the game's large number of tracks.

    Completing any of the above net you a gold/silver/bronze trophy with appropriate money to match, making it easy to buy all but the most expensive cars. And if you can't afford certain multi-million dollar cars, then it's no big deal because the game gives you a random free car every day if you race at least 25 miles. After 1-2 months with 80 hours of play, I got everything I wanted and could have easily sold the cars I didn't want to get other desirable cars.

    The actual racing is surprisingly accurate. An experienced racer (or reckless driver) will be able to point out the small differences, but they're acceptable to me. I played through the entire game with a controller, and while I felt I wasn't nearly as accurate as I could have been, It didn't prevent me from getting gold in all of the challenges.

    Braking is the most difficult thing to master in the game. At first, auto-breaking is turned on, and it seems almost necessary, not being experienced with the cars or tracks. But after going through enough of the training missions and challenges, you realize that the auto-braking is overly-aggressive and the only way to get gold in some missions is to turn it off. Afterwards, you'll end up relying on the brake indicator and the double-cones set up around the tracks (which are interestingly at near-optimal breaking points). Overall, the game did a great job at weaning me off of auto-breaking.

    So even though it's focused more towards fair online racing, I had plenty of fun with its single-player modes and don't regret the purchase.
