    Game is straight up incredible from the clean visuals to the racing.
    Physics have been revamped and the sensation you get from the cars on tarmac is extremely satisfying.
    The dynamic weather and tod adds a lot to the emmersion.

    I started 40 years ago in 1982 on Sinclair ZX Spectrum with Chequered Flag. My last 25 years went around GT. So far this is the best race sim I ever played on. I do not care about online problems and micro-transactions. Thanks a lot Kaz!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. So...as you can see from the other reviews microtransactions and always online are ever so present in this game and it obviously brings about some very unfavorable feelings. The actual game though like playing it is pretty spectacular. Great tuning options and courses and layouts are sweet. Weather is so nuce too. But PD and Sony really are going to regret what theyve done with this game...a lot of longtime fans are giving up on it. Deservingly so. Servers are currently down for who knows what...but hey KoFXV just shadow dropped DLC...so more time for that now. :) Also gtplanet forums have some dope memes about the mess this is. And...a ton of ppl arguing on the internet too...so...yea... Expand

It's been review bombed by Reddit users following maintenance on the server. Unfortunately an issue came up when the game was being updated which resulted in 2 hour maintenance turning into about 36 hours. Not ideal, but the alternative was the possibility of save data being corrupted if the more serious issue was not resolved, and I know what people would have complained about more.

    The other complaint is 'microtransactions'. Please be careful in trusting what you read in the negative reviews. I've seen comparisons to an FTP mobile game. This is nonsense. There is the option to add credits via microtransactions, but they there is absolutely no requirement to put in your real money to progress.

    There is a significant amount of entitlement from users review bombing the game, people want the rarest most expensive cars in their garage within days of buying the game. If you do too, then this might not be the game for you. You have to put in time to buy the best cars. As it should be in my opinion.

    People who remember playing early Gran Turismo's will know. You used to have to grind an oval track over and over again to tune your cap car, only to buy another crap car and start the grind all over again. In comparison, on GT7, I've got 750,000 credits in the bank, been gifted 40+ cars in my garage I haven't even used yet, and you get gifted cars to use in the next stage of each campaign so you don't even have to buy a new car when you move car class. I haven't had to buy a new car yet to progress. Not a single one. So if you see people saying "I've played all games in the series and this is predatory etc etc"... Ignore it, they're lying.

    Now onto the game. It's great, the racing is great, the feeling of the cars is great, the game looks absolutely brilliant. The only racing game where I can happily sit and watch the replays of every race I do. It has great tuning options and some nice modding options. Livery creation and sharing is fantastic, and the showcase photo mode is really nice to experiment with.

    If you like racing games and have played and enjoyed previous GT games then it'd worth getting. If you like racing games but want every car unlocked within the first fortnight of owning the game with minimal effort, it's probably not for you.

    My own complaint would be the length of the campaign currently. You can smash through it, and then just carry on with races that aren't part of the campaign or create your own races. If you like racing, like I do, that's fine, it's extremely enjoyable to play. If you need a campaign path for the game to stay relevant to you then again, this may not be for you. For now. I say for now, because they will be adding more content in the future. Maybe give it a year and revisit the game then to see what new content has been added to the game. Summary, ignore the ridiculously low user scores, they do not paint any sort of realistic picture about the game. If you just like racing and don't mind working towards earning new cars, then you'll love this game.

    If you want everything from the start and only want to race a few races to be able to afford the most expensive car in the game, then this won't be for you.

    Honesty, we haven't had a gran turismo game since the 6th instalment in like 2013, and although this game had its very buggy moments that lasted more than a day. I'm sure we can skip past that and just accept what we have and how great it is, with new cars, community favourite tracks and more. This game is worth the grind with its challenges and missions.

    Évidemment ce n'est pas un jeu qui va s'adresser à tous le monde loin de la, il est vraiment dans la simulation pur et dure, encore bien plus que les forza motorsport à titre de comparaison.

    Enfin bref, une merveille véritablement du genre et malgré le review bombing des rageux qui, je l'espère, va être supprimé par le site metacritic, ne change absolument rien au fait que le jeu est une merveille du genre et un incontournable.

The incredible weather and day/night simulation along with region specific weather and star constellations adds a level of immersion and fine detail. I love the rotating used car lot and the selection of cars that include some of the all time greatest cars ever made. DRM? This game is designed to be online because the intent is too not segregate SP and MP and create a social platform with seamlessly moves between modes, while also replicating car culture meet ups and clubs. Yes it does mean SP content isn’t 100% available offline and they need to do a better job of changing that so more gamers can appreciate the game as always online is realistic for many. MTX? If your goal is collect every car then the MTX in this game make it almost impossible not to spend real money, BUT collecting was designed to be only a small aspect of the game. Racing m, learning tracks and finding the right balance between car and upgrades/mods, is what Gran Turismo 7, and every GT game, has always been about. Expand

    Seems many 'reviews' are actually nothing but whining about about how people feel about MTX and online connection. Both of which are actually non issues for me.

    If you enjoy circuit-based racing games and looking at beautifully modelled cars it really is a joy. The graphics are not quite where I'd like them to be, it pays not to look too closely or you will see the occasional pop-in and some odd, almost stuttering, reflections on the cars. But when you're engrossed in a race, trying desperately to get that 3rd place to progress, you won't notice.

    I've not been playing for long, only got 30 cars or so. Two I won on the 'lottery', so although you often 'win' the lowest credit amount it does give you some nice rewards. I've yet to not be able to progress because I ran out of credits. You don't need every car and so far found you don't need to spend much on upgrades to be winning races.

    I'm sure it'll get harder and the credits will need to be spent wisely later on, but I really don't see a need to spend anything on MTX later. As for the always online? Well I am always online anyway, so I don't mind.

    Is it a 10/10 game? No, maybe 8.5/10?. Why did I rate it 10/10? To try and counter the ridiculous review bombing going on.

    If you enjoyed GT games in the past you will love this.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Honestly I don't see the fuss over the new patches. I bought the game only a few days back and it's great fun. The whole credits issue- it's slightly annoying but that really can't spoil the entire game. This game is speculated to last the next 6-7 years, essentially until the next mainstream PlayStation is to release so there should be lots of content for players to get through, and right now, that is the case. The game is slightly limited when you first start off, but once you're on your way it only gets more fun. This is from someone who got into Gran Turismo only at the launch of GTS, so maybe I'm not entirely correct, but still this is a game worth playing. It's still in infancy too, so there’s still lots yet to see. Expand

    I get that people feel slighted by the credit changes and I will admit that the outage was probably the not the best time to introduce that, but it doesn’t detract significantly from my enjoyment of the game. It’s still the same beautiful racing masterpiece that it was before the update. Sure, it will take a few more races/credits to purchase the more expensive cars, but that could also prevent us from growing bored of the game sooner by obtaining them more easily. Prior to the update, I was pretty impressed with how quickly I was earning credits with minimal effort anyway.

    People worked incredibly hard to make this game as good as it is, and it’s impossible to deliver something that is flawless and pleases everyone. Leadership may not have had the best judgement in this situation, but it doesn’t completely negate the majority of what makes this game great. Prior to the release of this game, I only owned a PS3 that I barely used 2-3 times a year to play GT6. GT7 was the reason I purchased a PS5, and it has reignited my passion for the series and gaming in general.

    Looking forward to many more years of fun with GT7.

The level of detail, the handling of the cars, the sheer love of cars and their history. Gran Turismo 7 has it all and deserves to by up there as one of the greatest racers of all time.

The graphics are the best in any game right now, adding weather effects and 24 hour lighting to all of the tracks just makes to world seem more alive. The tracks have always been the best designed for techincal racing IHMO and the online racing portion is by far the best in the industry. It's like an automotive theme park for real world cars in the most amazing tracks, and soon, hopefully, for the Vision Gran Turismo cars again. The level of attention to detail and perfection is really breathtaking.

    The game itself could be very good, but microtransactions from hell are ruining it. Cars can cost up to 200$ - this is no joke. Grinding these credits has been made more time consuming with the latest patch, which is just a joke.

    Edit: They reacted and made it more easy to earn money, they will implement selling cars, too. Im fine with that.

    While the core gameplay was excellent right out of the gate, Polyphony have now responded to overwhelming user feedback which has led to them tweaking the reward payout per race to a much more reasonable level.

    Updated review following patch 1.11:
    While the core gameplay was excellent right out of the gate, Polyphony have now responded to overwhelming user feedback which has led to them tweaking the reward payout per race to a much more reasonable level.
    Making credits to purchase cars up to the 1mil mark no longer feels like a grind, but instead like a rewarding goal to work towards with not too much gameplay time spent.

    Score is set to 8 for me as I think the multiplayer component could do with more work, a general matchmaking besides the 3 weekly races would add more variety, also the ability to populate multiplayer open lobbies with AI would be a welcome addition.

    Original review - Score 0 before patch 1.11:
    Great gameplay and a fantastic driving model is locked behind a predatory microtransaction based economy, what was a suspicion was verified in patch 1.07 when most race rewards were cut significantly.
    Café missions provide around 2-4 hours of good gameplay, however once these are completed you find yourself with little in the way of single player races, licences and circuit experiences provide some additional gameplay but at a significant difficulty hike which to casual users may prove frustrating.
    Online mode is still limited to 3 daily (weekly) races with the occasional championship and open lobbies, I think much of the community would have appreciated a general matchmaking race system and/or the ability to populate open lobbies with AI to create meaningful online races with a full grid.

    In conclusion (If Gran Turismo was your chosen flavour of racing), for offline play try GT6, for online play try GT Sport, IMO GT7 current does a worse job at both the aforementioned titles.

    GT7 is a refreshing return to the series' roots, with the classic formula being melded with the engine advances between 5,6 & Sport to create the best console sim experience ever.

    Gran Turismo 7 isn't a departure, but rather a newer, shinier GT game. Its physics model is accurate, and while the racing can be formulaic it's always a giggle. The attempt at humanity is a bit cringe,the lack of up-to-date cars seems like an open goal missed

    Sorry if this seems more of a rant, but I'm really fed up with the lies of people who don't like to sweat it.
    Oh and I never found brands like Forza motorsport to be easier on the grind.
    Oh, and remember that today every game let's you spend way too much real money on it with microtransactions, the difference is, Gran Turismo 7 does NOT need you to, if you want and are determined enough you can get everything in the game by simply playing the game.
    Who played Gran Turismo from the beginning should remember how much we raced again and again in the same race.
