    I’ve clocked in an in game time of 160+ hours since launch according to my profile stats.

    To be honest, the game was just barely acceptable for the first two weeks before update 1.07. I didn’t felt it was that bad at that time. The grind to get new car was already long enough at that time but I was convincing myself that it was perfectly normal since most GT games are like that. After

    After update 1.07/1.08, I felt the pain and longer grind time that I didn’t feel like continuing the game even though I’m already at 97% trophy and one more last trophy to platinum the game. The game has gone from acceptable to a **** hell hole thanks to SONY and PD for being greedy. If they continue on with this after update 1.09. They’ll continue to lose the numbers of players and the game will die off pretty soon.

    I voted 1 because the game is otherwise good.
    But indeed DRM/always online and the payouts just puts casual players off.

    Riddled with an outrageous micro transaction scheme and gives you very little new content considering the gap between gt sport and this title. The physics are good but overall if the company doesn't change it up quickly they will lose a lot of players

I’ve returned to my PS4 for Gran Turismo 7 and I’m so disappointed. The value of Gamepass has made spending £60 on a game almost unbelievably extravagant and only my love for previous games (not Sport) convinced me it was worthwhile. Firstly I still love the detail, the information and various car related things you can do to spend your time. I even like the way it still feels very similar to all the old GT games despite the talk of new super realistic tyres modelling etc. Being online only is an absolute disaster. I regularly finish a race only for it to say I’m offline (no issues with my Xbox on exactly the same network) and ignore any progress, what I’d really like is the return of the epic several hour long GT races but you could never do that with this system, it’s far too unreliable. So online only has to go for single player (I should have learnt after sport) The second thing is the sheer greed, I spent a lot of time with Forza Horizon 5 and while it does give things away far too easily that is much better than the (micro?) transactions Sony expect you to buy. There is so far very little value for money, it offers not much more than Sport for much more money then tries to pry more out of you to buy cars that were in the game at least a decade ago for much less. I think if Forza Motorsport is good that’ll be me done with Playstation, the reasons for buying a PS5 are pretty much 0 for me at the moment. They need to sort this quick but they don’t seem to realise it. Expand

    This push for micro transactions made the previous decision for gt7 to work on ps4 a complete farce. PD came out to say it was they realized the ps5 shortage and believed racing was for EVERYONE to experience. Lol, you mean realizing that you would lose all that money! Why in the gaming community do we settle for less and less of a quality product while paying more and more. The justification is “well that’s what updates are for”… no updates are for small tweaks and issues that happen over time, not to reformat the entire game because it’s a disaster from launch! FYI, one over looked aspect is the physics are piss poor as well, different than sport but not any closer to reality… just different. The fact people think these physics are good blows my mind. What’s up snap over steer in almost every car. I’ve driven plenty of cars on track at speed, Ferrari 488gtb at NCM pushing 140mph on the straights and on standard tires factory tires on 500hp c3&c6 corvettes. Yet, you jump in an 180 hp tug boats on this game will randomly blow the rear out for zero reason at all. I get this game is to pay tribute to how gt was from the start… but the only thing they did get right and operating correctly with no issues is the transaction option to buy the game and add funds to buy credits.

    Also, what a bunch of hot air the creator of pd blows. All the wack excuses and reasoning for their decisions. Dude the gig is up we get it you just want our money.

    The most disgusting GT work ever made! SONY maintains the server for 30 hours without even the most basic apology statement, nor does it give any player compensation. The low income after the update makes people angry, and behind the pretentious racing culture is actually the real face of making players pay to recharge CR! Years of GT reputation ruined!

    El juego gráficamente no es muy avanzado como gt sport . Lo peor de todo después de ser muy fanático de la saga es que tenga conexión permanente. Conexión permanente no Gracias!!!!

    What started off as a sweet experience slowly turned sour. I've been playing Gran Turismo since they released GT2. GT4 was my favourite. Let's get into GT7 a little. You get crap rewards for winning races. You are forced on a linear path to unlock the game and Ll of its races. The licenses are a joke. You don't

    This review should have an update on the nerfing of race prices to boost their microtransactions or face massive grinding. Along the way, the removal of the car sells feature even though the PS Store description says you can sell.

    I got my PS5 solely for this game back in Sept 2020, it sat here collecting dust for 18 months thanks to the game's delayed release, now I finally have the game after paying the ridiculous premium tax, it is a massive disappointment and letdown. I DO NOT recommend this to anyone.

    I've played all the Gran Turismo's and honestly there is 1 major thing that make me angry about, the main story being shortened every time, also the intro is so bad and way to long honestly compare to the others they reflected more on the real car used now not the old scrap of the past, if i wanted to play historical cars i would not have buy this game, not all car enthusiast care aboutI've played all the Gran Turismo's and honestly there is 1 major thing that make me angry about, the main story being shortened every time, also the intro is so bad and way to long honestly compare to the others they reflected more on the real car used now not the old scrap of the past, if i wanted to play historical cars i would not have buy this game, not all car enthusiast care about very old stuff and conllectionning all of them... its not a pokémon game to catch them all with rarety come on... Also the fact that they bring real costs of actual car is annoying because the game lack so much contents right now that bringing this on the table make me quit right away also to mention that we cant even resell duplicated or car we dont want anymore for extra money and that another part of something that doesnt match the so called "real" they try to bring in. and to finish with the bad part... the rally never been made good in the series with there dynamics and physics and if they couldnt make it right they should just have stop it instead.

    Dont get me wrong not everything is bad about the game, graphics are nice and well managed, sounds effects so far are great too, tuning and customizing always been a big plus in this tho i would have been more happy to finally see a real car enthusiastic game to finally bring the customization of the blowoff valve and me our car turbo sound like we really want too while they did bring the anti lag in it, i like that they give more car as a reward of winning some races, the videos explaination in the license to help make it right if ppl struggle.the multiplayers,

    But, will all that said can i really suggest to pay full price for an incompleted game? No, there is so many things lacking in the game actually and so many things that should be reviewed with patchs or free dlc to fix those before hand. And honestly i kind of get it for the micro-transaction but before thinking about that the game should really be fixed where its lacks and once everything is done properly then go for it.

    Meanwhile im leaving the game and not gonna buy the next ones coming for sure if this one is not properly fixed.

    Despite all the bugs, all the microtransactions that Polyphony is trying to impose, all the grinding you have to do, etc. I can forgive all that.
    The only thing i cannot forgive is not being able to reset my game progress. It's unthinkable not being able to start a new game. The game progress is mine. I should be able to do what i want with it. Who was the "briliant" mind that thought of

    Update: The game gets an extra point for addressing concerns relating to the broken economy. The biggest issue is still the ALWAYS ONLINE REQUIREMENT FOR SINGLE PLAYER. If they remove this then the game is a 9 out of 10. If they get rid of the stupid roulette spins then I would change to a 10 out of 10.

    I wanted to wait for Polyphony/Sony's response before I wrote this review. I am so bitterly disappointed and this is the first review I've ever written so that should speak volumes in itself.
    The single player portion of this game requiring an online connection is simply wrong and is unacceptable. I cannot believe that it is literally impossible to start your game over and/or create a new save file. The official recommendation from Sony is to create a whole new Playstation ID every time I just want to start fresh. The save file is forever tied to the account, backed up to the cloud and made impossible to ever remove. Am I purchasing this game or just renting it? The update recently released made no mention whatsoever about changing the online requirements so you've officially lost a loyal fan of this series.
    You and your live service BS can get f%^&^d and I am returning the game today. Btw, get rid of those awful random roulette spins, this is not a mobile game however much you want to make it feel like one.

    The new ALFA ROMEO GIULIA Quadrifoglio? There are the same cars (Alfas) since GT3 and a handfull of new cars. Way to less to be a competitive game. Some more additional issues: After exiting GT Auto menu to change wheels and would like to buy the widebody you exit to the main menu again. Annoying. Cannot change the car in the GT Auto menu. You finished changing wheels of car a) then you need to go to your garage and choose the other car and go back to GT Auto to change wheels for car b). Annoying.

    Great: Graphics and driving mechanics/road feel, photo mode, Livery & Collection sharing

    Set Aside(Ignored in this review): Lack of any modern damage physics. You can still wall ride and side swipe walls at 100mph without any penalties. The horrible Music

    Bad: The core guts of the game... The classic GT games were so innovative and available for exploring or grinding. You could think of almost any car you wanted, throw parts on it and find suitable races for it. You used to be able to hot swap parts and/or sell your previous parts as you progressed up the mod tiers. Hell, you used to be able to sell the damn cars! Or vice versa, something you would have never wanted to drive, you'd purchase and upgrade and experiment with because each car you unlocked had a unique race(s) associated with it or its class.
    -Car List: The car list from GT2 was 10x better than this version. There are so many obvious exclusions
    -Rewards: First off, the roulette rewards are a complete scam. Race rewards are pretty bad considering the overall economy of the game. Thanks for the Million credits, but its still a joke.
    -Race List: There are under 40 single player missions and almost 10 of those are "go equip this part", "go tune this", "install wide body", etc. There are a bunch of cars/classes that have no single player missions at all. Each track should have a variety of class, DT, PP or manufacture restriction.

    I know some people just want MP or Sport mode, but the single player content is an absolute joke. This was supposed to be the epitome of racing sim games. The best GT ever? It feels so empty. Like an alpha release. I feel like I barely scratched the surface and then the credits roll as if this is some masterpiece. It should be priced at $40. Let alone the DRM or online locked restrictions. I was so hyped for this game and barely find myself even thinking about it anymore. what a waste of a franchise

This is a wimpy attempt to please everyone, missing the classic gameplay qulities completely. The trailers presented nostalgia-dripping visuals that turned out to be a shiny veneer to cover up the dull and uninspired grind that is supposet to be GT mode.

    I'd rather collect all 20 versions of the Mazda MX-5 in GT4 than playing this video game version of the absurd real-life classic car market where cars are mere investment goods. This has nothing to do with the appreciation for car culture.
    Gran Turismo used to be a role play game with deep economic mechanics that made you think twice before spending your in-game credits. It felt so close to home because it featured things like your neighbors Mazda 323 or the Lupo Cup, a small racing series that really existed.
    Nothing of that love is to be found in GT7. Disappointing.

    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.
