    I hoped it would the successor to Gran Turismo 4 which was the last game in the series I purchased before losing faith in the series and switching to the Forza franchise that has thoroughly trounced Gran Turismo for many years despite the last two FM games being rather disappointing themselves.

    I purchased the game at an incredible price of £90 including some bonuses, I also bought a Logitech G29 wheel to play it.

    Reviews came in and all appeared well, the game looked excellent. Unfortunately the reviewers did not do their jobs thoroughly. The game is an utter façade of falsehood and playing past the 'café' campaign reveals absolutely nothing underneath; very few racing series, incredibly low reward pay outs for everything, daily gambling that 99% of the time results in credits barely worth the press of the controller button, the majority of cars unavailable to purchase locked behind a used car dealership that seems to almost never change stock, a system that requires you to get lucky and win an INVITATION to buy a car for a limited period of time or an exclusive second hand dealer with absolutely shocking prices for cars making them unaffordable for all but the most hardcore or willing to purchase.... credits for cash.

    Yes that's it folks. A £90 game that then pushes you to purchase currency to buy cars. I am disgusted by this game, Polyphony digital should be ashamed of themselves. I do not buy a GAME to simulate my inability to afford the most expensive cars around, I buy a game to drive them. If that is what you desire, this is not the game for you and frankly as it is the game should be free to play as that is how it is monetised.    … Expand

    They want you to use MTX in a full price game - Cars are much more expensive than in previous games.

    - WARNING BUY AT YOUR OWN RISK

    They want you to use MTX in a full price game
    - Cars are much more expensive than in previous games. Some updates made cars that were already expensive more expensive.
    - Payouts seem lower than before and when there is one that pays out well Polyphony cuts the pay out by about half
    - Many other pay outs were lowered as well, two were raised but that does not cover the amount that was lowered so a net loss for users
    - The "roulette" cards are rigged. In my experience you get the lowest prize about 90% of the time. Outside of the cars or other credit prizes they are generally worthless. Especially the "prize" that then allows you to spend 2 million credits on a car that you are now allowed to buy. Seems like predatory MTX practices to me.

    They are not honest
    - Claimed you can sell cars, you cannot
    - In an "apology" post they want you to see the long term vision, translating that from corporate speak means "we will not change anything and just ride out the wave of anger and continue our predatory MTX practices"
    - Can't stress this enough as of 9/29/2022 you still cannot SELL cars

    Single player is online only
    - You cannot play the single player offline races without an internet connect AND their servers need to be up and running
    - Early one their servers were down for roughly 30 hours severely limiting what you could play (it was not worth playing)
    - It took them about 20 hours to even post any type of statement about what the problem was or when a resolution might be in place
    - The interface to get from one area or race to another is not great. A lot of button presses and even more to exit a race.

    Multiplayer
    - Rammers are all over. You might have some clean races but do not expect to
    - You can get rammed, get a penalty for that and the rammer gets nothing
    - You might barely tap another car and get a penalty
    - Really frustrating. Almost at the same level of racing Monza on the F1 game in an open lobby.

    Conclusion
    - Play another racing game, this one is not worth your time    … Expand

    The game is a scam and sony crossed a line. They changed the amount of credits you earn for races to make sure it takes hours upon hours to buy a single car. They cheated costumers by giving reviewers a version of the game with no micro transactions and better earning races, then flipped the switch when it came time to monetise. This game doesn’t deserve your money.

    Micro-transactions. You get very little cash from races. Unless you pay extra, look forward to an insane amount of gridning to buy even a single mid-priced car. They also market the goal of the game being to get all cars. Without micro-transactions it's not even remotely feasible to do this.

    Many missions and licenses are extremeply poorly balanced. Some has a time diff of 0.5-1.0 seconds between gold and silver. This requires nano-second precision and is just stupid since none of the events/races requires this kind of precision.

    The AI is cheating. They rocket propell and drive faster during the last lap. Even though you manage to easily overtake them in the first few laps, they magically catch up with you again in the end. Every single race is also a rolling start with you in the last position, and it's built so that you're only meant to take the lead on the last lap.

    The roloutte rewards are a plague. Through the whole campaign I got one single car. The other times I got the worst possible reward EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. It's basically a spit in the face.

How exactly does that promote rarity if someone can open their wallet and get the rare item instantly?

    On top of that the game is clearly designed with F2P mechanics in mind. Daily Roulettes are terrible and hardly ever reward a decent prize. Used car shop fills slowly with cars you need to buy before they disappear for an unknown amount of time. The legend shop just now refilled with a car that costs 18,500,000 credits!! It'll take over 30 hours of grinding the same race over and over to buy it! Or pay $180ish to get it instantly :)

    Limited time invitations, that you only seem to get via daily roulettes, to buy cars with 1,000,000-5,000,000 credits further incentives the player to purchase credits with real world dollars. Otherwise you'll miss out on buying the car and you won't know when you'll get another invitation.

    On top of the economy problems, there's just a general lack of content for the game. 39 menu books took a laughably short amount of time to get through and missing endurance races, grid starts, tracks, event modes, and more really really shows.

    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.
