    Did not expect a Sony game to be full of microtransactions like GT7! You barely get any in game currency.

    Extremely predatory micro transactions and an always online requirement that stops you from playing even the single player mode when you (or the game's servers for that matter) are offline.

    But how bad are these business practices really? First off, the credit pay out in the game is often rather low and the cars are extremely expensive - up to 12 million credits. Grinding for that
    Extremely predatory micro transactions and an always online requirement that stops you from playing even the single player mode when you (or the game's servers for that matter) are offline.

    But how bad are these business practices really? First off, the credit pay out in the game is often rather low and the cars are extremely expensive - up to 12 million credits. Grinding for that amount of credits in game will take many hours of the same boring events on repeat. The recent patch (1.07) only made grinding money in the game harder by lowering pay outs even more. Sony wants you to spend real money on credits. But even here the prices are absurd. A 12 million credit car translates to roughly 120 Dollars - and that's for a SINGLE car. To make matters worse, the game has many FOMO systems that try to push you to spend money quickly. Several of the cars in the game can only be obtained for a limited time, either because the shop's stock rotates or because you got an "invitation" to buy a car that has an expiry date. So you often have only a day to buy that 5 million credits car you want, leaving you with three equally unattractive options:
    1) Spend the entire rest of the day slaving away and trying to grind the money for 9 hours straight only to perhaps not make it in time after all
    2) spend 50 real Dollars to buy the car instantly
    3) wait weeks or months until the car goes on sale again

    This is by far the most predatory microtransaction system I've ever seen in a non-mobile game and Sony should be ashamed.

Not a single reviewer had 99% of the single player portion of the game blocked if no active internet connection was provided and there was no free to play monetization present during the review period.

    A mostly single player game, from a series that has been mostly single player focused since its inception, cannot and should not ever have an always online requirement, especially it is implemented with the sole purpose of forcing ludicrous monetization on players who have paid full price for the game. There is no way to play off the disc with the console off-line to earn credits properly as the game locks you out of content unless you are online and up to date to its latest patch. Absolutely unacceptable. I returned my disc for a refund and I am hoping there might be an attorney out there who loves GT and decides to do a class action lawsuit for the dishonest, shady and anti consumer garbage Polyphony and Sony have pulled with this game so they’ll have to rethink continuing with this garbage and going down this path with other games going forward.

    Leaving aside all of the micro-transactions/ripping off/always online tactics, what really disappointed me about this game is that after 25 years, it's still more or less the same: no car damage or punishment for driving poorly; no realistic driving physics; no customization of your car exactly the way you want to; if you want to customize anything, be prepared to spend a lot of in gameLeaving aside all of the micro-transactions/ripping off/always online tactics, what really disappointed me about this game is that after 25 years, it's still more or less the same: no car damage or punishment for driving poorly; no realistic driving physics; no customization of your car exactly the way you want to; if you want to customize anything, be prepared to spend a lot of in game and real money; still the same old, boring, dumb, safe and cautious AI that races in a straight line and never seriously challenges you. Same old race tracks (remember in GT4 where you raced down the streets of NYC and Paris?); can't customize your own tracks and races; can't select, change, customize the music like you used to be able to as you have to use Spotify if you want to import your own music; lots of lame, useless gimmicks that don't add any value like the JRPG style dialog boxes. One can go on with how disappointing it is that Polyphony Digital/Sony hasn't really changed or grown with the times other than follow EA's lead as far as nickel and diming gamers and long time fans for money and offering nothing in return. A lot of the cool and interesting things that were introduced in 4-Sport have been removed.
    Go for Assetto Corsa or Forza Horizon instead if you want a real and much better racing, innovative, simulator experience that doesn't try to rip you off and give you mediocrity in return. The Gran Turismo franchise is done.

With good but not perfect graphics ( I think they should have devekop a PS5 Exclusive GT instead of still support PS4), awesome sound, good control (for driving wheels and gamepad!) and alot of stuff to do! BUT...
    There are a few NO-GO's that are part of the game:
    - Physical Copy/Game on Disk is not playable after installation without patches (Useless Copy)
    - OnlineDRM all the time, for all Parts of the game! = SinglePlayer isn't really playable offline.
    - More than 30hours of GT Online Server downtime, short after release (because of a broken patch) ment a complete dead game, no SinglePlayer/Offline gaming ability.
    - Sh..t load of Microtransactions in a Full-Price Title!
    - Game was patched after Release with huge negative changes around Campaign Actions, and Race Events with increased car costs and deacreased Winning Race money to push Microtransactions even more in the focus!

    Many of these things are usually strategic company descisions and not developers faults, so I don't wanna blame everyone about this. I also agree with many comments here. This Game now, with all the relevant and negative changes to the game for Players, feels like (and should be) a free2play title. Instead they wan't to steal your money twice, out of your pocket! Really... SHAME ON YOU!

    Conclusion (for the moment):
    Don't support this! Share your thoughts! Open your month and fight against these kinds of methods or it might become the new/next definition of "Standard" for upcoming Gaming Releases.

    Gamers need to boycott this kind of thing (refund, don't trade in) and be vocal; it's the only way to stop the games industry imploding into its own greed. Cost of living is rising globally and Sony thinks these kinds of practices and costs are ok? That's a new level of tone-deaf.
    If Sony refuses to refund digital sales, then class-action lawsuit; the product was altered after sale/reviews without user consent or choice, in a manner that fundamentally impacts enjoyment of an entertainment product. If that's not some kind of implicit contract violation I don't know what is.

The developers are too lazy to give us more offline content.

    When it comes to graphics, I am not some nerd that takes out my telescope and magnifying glass to analyze the graphics. In my opinion, the graphics look only slightly better than Sebastien Loeb Rally Evo. That 2016 rally game was accused by many to have trash graphics. So by that logic, the graphics in this game are trash too... no? Either way, the graphics are outdated and does not look like a next-gen AAA game worth $70. It is embarrassing that a $60 open world racer like Forza Horizon 5 has better graphics than a circuit racer for $70. The driving physics are horrible. Every car feels like it has a refrigerator on top of the car. The cars handle even worse than it does in real life. This is a video game for goodness sake. If anything, cars should handle better in a game. If you want a game with driving physics closer to real-life, take a look at Project Cars 2 or Assetto Corsa. The developers were too cheap and lazy to make the cars handle realistically, so they just made them heavy to give players the illusion that the driving is realistic.

    Most of the content in this game is online. So once the developers decide to switch off the servers, this game will basically become a demo. Imagine paying $70 for a demo. This outrageous greed makes EA look like saints in comparison. At least I can play their campaigns offline for basically any of their games that have a singleplayer campaign. I don't recommend this game at all.

    - need to be always online even for single player campaign mode. You basically will never actually "own" this game. Their servers were down for over 30 hours last week. Imagine not being able to play a game you bought
    - recent patch reduced CR rewards for some events - linear boring, even bizarre "cafe" missions - roulette spins most of the time land on the lowest

    - recent patch reduced CR rewards for some events
    - linear boring, even bizarre "cafe" missions
    - roulette spins most of the time land on the lowest reward
    - cars have strange physics at times especially when hitting gutters/corners
    - they removed ability to sell cars. You can win duplicates and can't sell
    - too much grinding, devs don't value your time.
    - the game does well to hinder your ability to actually race through boring missions and stories about racers. I don't need to know that Pedro moved to Japan when he was 5 and he thinks the flowers are pretty around the track
    - raytracing only available in cutscenes and replays

    I loved GT1 and GT2 and this was meant to be my return to this series. I even preordered the 25th Anniversary as soon as preorders opened.

    I am truly disappointed and cannot recommend this game, at least in the current form.

    - Very short and linear GT Mode, with very few interesting races and championships.
    - Stingy credit payouts.
    - Expensive cars.
    - Sport Mode has seen no upgrade from GT Sport.
    - Invasive MTX

    This game proves that sports video games are at the bottom of the barrel in the gaming industry. This is a casino spinner disguised as a game.

    I waited a couple of years for this, you have the chance to fix the disaster that was GT sport and .But one more i'm very disappointment of this game every section of this game is a disaster

    You need to be always online to play single player it´s no reason for this I can only surmise as pushing for live-service BS in the future. The car parts are also grindy. The credits that you earn

    You need to be always online to play single player it´s no reason for this I can only surmise as pushing for live-service BS in the future. The car parts are also grindy. The credits that you earn are meager. Each time that you win, there is literally an option for you to top up credit by purchasing them with real money using the PS store. This is an absolute shame and I truly pity Polyphony Digital. This decision was clearly made by Sony themselves and has nothing to do with the devs.

    it does'nt deserve the 80 dollars ( 75000 chilean pesos) not mentioned the expensive prices for DLC cars it's a theft. i don´t know what i'm thinkin when i bought this piece of garbage. Yamauchi you have to retired for the development of videogame and Jim Ryan Please GET OUT OF SONY RIGHT NOW.

    The game's quite good, but gets a 0 by default for its frustrating always online requirement that blatantly serves no purpose other than DRM for the microtransactions. I'll be keeping a very close eye on GT Sport, and if they shut down those servers without patching that game to function offline, I'll be immediately selling my copy of GT7 while it still has some value other than as a coaster.

    I had put about 25-30 hours into GT7 from launch until the recent update where they destroyed payouts, making it totally unrealistic to keep buying any worth while cars without paying for in gain credits. On an already full prices games. For example A custom 24 hour race in GT7 will payout around 250,000 Cr.
    The same in GT sport bagged you around 7,000,000.

    As a former Gran Turismo fan I'm highly disappointed. The progression is significantly slower than in any Gran Turismo before and the AI is abysmal. There are 420 cars which can cost up to 20,000,000 credits. If you win a 30 minute race it will reward you only 10,000 credits! Buying just a decent car for like 200,000 credits takes multiple hours grind, legendary cars even more than 100As a former Gran Turismo fan I'm highly disappointed.

Buying just a decent car for like 200,000 credits takes multiple hours grind, legendary cars even more than 100 hours - or up to $200. I guess that's the main reason for the ultra slow progression : Microtransactions. In GT:Sport you could buy a premium car for 3,000,000 credit after a few hours of grind or $5. The same car in GT7 will require dozens of hours of grind or a whopping $30.

    That's just insane for a $70 game with a focus on singleplayer. I can't recommend such greediness in any way.

    I would give it a 8 if it weren't for the greedy casino tactics making it basically essential to use real money to get the best cars or grind for 24 hours per car. It's a shame because there is an ok game in there if they made an actual career mode and rewarded skill but instead we get this rubbish.

    GT7 = 80 € spent on PSN. When you buy the game, it tells you 420 cars available to collect. I want to know how many hours Mister Yamauchi played to collect the 420 cars without spending extra money?

    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.
