    they only care about you spending money on micro transactions and not how much you enjoy your time in the game. absolutely unacceptable anti consumer practices at play here.

So, I called PlayStation and requested for a refund. They told me they couldn’t because the game was downloaded to my console after purchased and suggested for me to reach out to the game’s developers instead. Couldn’t reach out to them so instead, I reached out to my credit card company for a refund which was executed. I’m disappointed!… Expand

    Disgusting predatory microtransactions that aren't "micro." Online DRM. I wanted the same feeling as GT3. Good music, lots of cars, not blinking from racing for hours. I couldn't play the game for days and you are trying to force me to pay more in addition to the price I've already paid for the **** game.

    The 2 player split screen mode is just ridiculous, you can't even changes the assists for both players and if you like to race with any your garage cars, you have to go on your garage and set each one of them as a favorite. Gran Turismo Sport was soooooo much better on this....

    Gran Turismo 7 gets a 1, and not a 0, because if we are honest the actual driving in the game is amazing.

    However, let's all agree to call a spade a spade. The microtransaction structure of GT7 is nothing less than predatory. About as anti-consumer as this industry has ever seen, and I know EA exists, so I am not saying that lightly. Sony is all about being "for the players" and one of their tent-pole, marquee IPs charges MORE THAN THE ORIGINAL PURCHASE PRICE OF THEIR AAA GAME for a single in-game item (any of the Legends cars)? With some in-game items costing hundreds of real world dollars in microtransactions to acquire??? The EXACT SAME in-game items that, in the previous iteration of this series, cost no more than (I think) $5????? A stunningly, jaw-droppingly short sighted cash grab with their eyes only on short term profits, not the long term health of the franchise and it's very dedicated player base. PD talks about users needing to take a long-term view of this game, but where the hell is the same behavior from PD? How could anyone there honestly expect consumers to swallow this level of raw, naked greed and not openly revolt, review bombing this game into the shadow realm? All I can do is shake my head in amazement.

    Then PD comes along after getting their initial glowing reviews and nerfs payouts of a vast majority of races, which can ONLY be ascribed to a desire to push users even more towards microtransactions. There is absolutely no other logical reason that can be given for this change - credit acquisition was already waaayyy too slow relative to the "realistic" car and parts pricing in this game, prior to 1.07.

    All the microtransaction shenanigan's aside, there are (for me) two other glaring errors here:
    1) always online for a mostly single player game (no.....just, no.....didn't Sony famously rip Xbox for always online?), and 2) I assume "forgetting" to include, you know, an actual single player campaign/career mode like in all previous main-line entries in the franchise. You know, with increasingly difficult series and championships you work your way through as you build out and upgrade your car collection. The core of the franchise, if you will.

    No lie - I thought the "cafe" mode was just the introduction portion of the game, and once I got through it I would find the actual career mode I remembered so fondly from past entries.

    I mean, what in the actual f&*%? How did this get screwed up so badly, so quickly? How did no one at PD or Sony stop and say "You know, maybe we shouldn't charge $200 worth of microtransactions for the exact same car that we charge $5 in GT Sport" or "You know, maybe there should be something structured for the single player folks to do AFTER completing the rather limited and linear cafe menus", or even "You know, we roasted the crap out of Micro$oft for making Xbox always online, so maybe it is a little too hypocritical for us to make this single player game always online, too".

    Players have had enough of paying full price for a game that is clearly designed to force you to pay for micro transactions.
    Either release it free and be up front about pay to win or just release a full game (with optional packs you dont need to buy to win).
    Look at the failure or more recent EA titles and the success of Games like Elden Ring.

How it possible that AI cars from rank 3 to 14 are pretty slow and not to mention that they've been programmed to blocking our way, but for the 1st and 2nd are fast as hell and impossible to overtake?

Why in the tuning shop can't I view my cars stats so I an make judgements on equipment I want to buy, but instead you have to back out of the store, to go to your garage, look at your stats, then exit the garage, then go back into the store to buy the item, to then have to exit the store, enter a race for time trial, to test and tune. You see how much time is spent just clicking clicking clinking in and out of menus, instead of doing everything directly from with in the shop? You should also be able to be in a race, and from the tuning menu, be able to buy directly from there, so you don't have to back all the way out to go to the store. Why can't you view the weather prior to entering the race? Instead of entering the race just to find out, oh I have to back out and buy tires bc its raining. There is a ton of this clicking around menus which gets tiresome/time consuming. The campaign was way too easy to the point where I thought I was in a tutorial the entire time, then all of a sudden it was over and all I did for every race was just buy racing breaks and racing soft tires. I basically just accidentally ran through it not even realizing that I was actually playing the campaign not a tutorial and this is a dude who hasn't played GT since gt1 and 2. I'm tired of typing now but the nail in the coffin for me, for a $70 game, is the fact that the game becomes unplayable if you cannot connect to the servers. You can't even get into your garage. I don't even play multiplayer, and you lock me out of my $70 stand alone racing game. I'm not going to beat the dead horse about the in game economy since thats very obvious.

    Real life prices....yeah, sure! 100.000 credits die nitrous, 350 credits for an oil change, 50 credits to wash a car! If you pretend to use real time prices change the tuning prices to real life too! It's all about the micro transactions! Why is he not being honest?

    Sony should be sued for fraud, what they’ve done is awful and a big middle finger to their fans. Definitely ruined trust in a company that I thought I could trust. Will be certainly waiting for the next God of War now, who knows what they’ll do with that after it launches. Cannot trust Sony ever again!

    I purchased GT7 and then four days later they cut in-game income by more than 50%. As it was no longer the game I originally purchased I requested a refund, but Sony told me to jump in a lake. Unfortunately, leaving a review is now the only recompense I am able to take.

    At launch this game suffered from awful music, terrible menu system and the worst campaign ever.
    Forcing you to spend in game currency on cars you don't want to progress the campaign.
    The whole café is abysmal and now with the in game money reductions and server issues this game can not be recommended.

    this was supposed to be the game that I was going to go all in and enjoy for years to come. Instead its turned into a painful grind and micro-transactions undoing all the wonderful technical aspects of the game. There are plenty of other good games out there, and Forza is finally going to be an option for me. RIP GT

Unlike real life, we can’t sell cars to get money back. Second, the AI suck. Even the hardest AI difficulty is bad, and they push you out of the way. The career mode that was hyped so much is full of chase the leader races, this is simply outdated in today’s world. I don’t want to start 30 seconds behind 1st place and pass everyone like they’re standing still. And the career mode is small. I finished it in a week. There are less events than GT Sport. The always online requirement worsens the experience further. For over a day, we could not access the game at all due to trashy update by PD. The physics aren’t good either, the cars have a laughable amount of oversteer while not being a simulator at all. If you want a true sim, get ACC or something. The rally physics are absolutely TERRIBLE. It’s like a mobile game the way it handles. There is not much more new content than GT Sport. This game was marketed really well and tricked myself and thousands of others into spending 70 dollars for it. Never again I am buying a GT game. Kaz doesn’t care. PD don’t care. All they want is more money. Don’t let yourself get tricked into buying this game.… Expand

In turn, I've spend countless hours over those 25 years playing what I feel are the best racing games ever made.
    For what it's worth, I feel that Gran Turismo 7 does live up to the expectations that have been set by it's predecessors. The graphics are exceptional, and the simulation of each car's appearance, sound, and performance, along with the customization and tuning abilities, are unmatched. Although many others (understandably) detest the linear and forced nature of the "Cafe" progression system, I don't mind it. It's a massive departure from past games, but I don't think change is necessarily a bad thing. Now for the rest of it. You all know exactly what I'm going to say.

    WTF.

    You greedy, soulless bastards. How dare you charge $60 - $80 for a game, and then basically force microtransactions on top of it? Yeah, I know, I know. You're not forcing micrtransactions. Except, you definitely are. How else is anyone going to buy any of the cars that are available for X number of days, without buying additional credits? I can't grind on these tracks all day every day to earn the millions of credits that I need to buy the cars that should always be available to buy at an attainable price, because, you know, that's why I bought the game. And do you know why I can't spend all day grinding for credits? Because I have a job. That I need to go to every day to support my family, and maybe once in a while, drop some of my hard earned money on a game. And when I do, I'll be damned if I want to pay for it, only to find out that the only parts of it worth playing are going to cost me even more real, green, not fake credits, actual, money. Legal tender. Screw you guys.

    And when I thought that maybe you were about to make it right, when you shut the entire game down for 2 days, presumably to fix the countless bugs, and hopefully put the right tires on the cars since you didn't give us the ability to do it ourselves in many races, what did you do? You filthy snakes. You lowered the payouts for the highest paying races to make it even more difficult to access the most desirable cars in the game? What the hell is wrong with you?

    But wait, there's more. Kazunori Yamaguchi, what on Earth are you thinking? Because on top of all that, (presumably in an attempt to delineate the boundless idiocy of those insufferable peasants who dared to question your blatant chicanery), you actually had the balls to post that ridiculous letter, an absolute masterclass in "How To Be Both Woefully Disaffected And Astonishingly Tone Deaf". The convoluted explanation doesn't even make a bit of sense. Keeping the cars at real world prices? OK, whatever, but for that logic to hold up, it stands to reason that the payouts for winning races would also align with real world numbers. And by any measure, it's not even close. And that was true before you lowered the winnings for the top races. How stupid do you think your customer base is? Did you think that no one would notice? That Seriously, did no one even suggest that maybe it wasn't such a great idea to share that apathetic response before you published it? Who's in charge of Public Relations over there, freakin Scrooge McDuck?

    Jesus Christ, you might as well just post a picture of your middle finger instead. Or maybe a selfie of you just grabbing your balls. That's what I would have done. Now that I think about it, that definitely would have been the way to go. As soon as I saw that, I would have just been like, "Damn. Respect."

    Yeah, so that's all I've got. I never would have paid a single penny for this game, had I known that I would have to pay again to access the best parts of the game. It's some dishonest and underhanded stuff that you all did. But here's the thing - you only get to do it once, because I'll never buy another game from you bunch of weasels again in my life.

    So I started the Game had lots of Fun everything was perfect, until I had the same Car twice and wanted to sell it like in GT6 so I could buy something better, well you know the rest you can't sell it, but you could buy credits with micro transactions, 2 million for merely 20$ what a joke.
    But even though all of this was implemented it still was a fun Game, Gran Turismo was always grindy if you wanted the best cars you had to work your way through, but then with Update 1.07/1.08 the Payouts were nerfed so you had to grind double as much...

    Now the game isn't fun anymore.
    It is a free to play game combined with the Lottery Ticket invite letter FOMO which I already had (playing 9 hours straight, just so I could buy those damn Aston Martins, because time was running out and I didn't want to miss them.
    The other option was to pay 40$ for the two exclusive for invite Cars.
    This in my opinion is a game breaker mechanic solely focused on taking advantage of you psychologically and this I can't nor will I support.
    The worst part about this is, it takes advantage of kids, because they will ask their parents to buy them this crap, in my opinion a game with FOMO mechanics like this should be illegal.

    Game launched on 4th of march midnight, 1.08 came out just over 2 weeks and 12 hours later, so it was not refundable after the payout nerfs. Sony killed this game just after a refund gap.

    this is not accidental, this is planned, and i don't think i'll own a GT game or PlayStation again

    Gran Turismo 7 has a lot of good and plenty of great. The use of DualSense and the particularly well-tuned loading is exemplary, and there's a huge amount of work behind the game, with a lot of detail that's almost hard to believe at times. [Issue#318]

    Gran Turismo 7 brings to the tracks every single thing fans always wanted: the GT Mode everyone loves, plenty of customization options, car loads, classic scenarios and one of the best DualSense and 3D Audio experiences the PS5 has to offer. This is the best Gran Turismo experience we have ever seen in a long time.

    Gran Turismo 7 is a love letter to motorsport history and an impeccable technical showcase. The franchise's traditional formula gets good improvements, but it's still extremely true to its roots. One of the best racing series ever shines spectacularly on the PS5.
