    As much as I love Gran Turismo series and this game, I am really pissed about the need to be connected to internet and those absurd decreases of money payouts. I wanted to play the game, but my internet connection isn't great and basically I cannot do anything in it. I will be returning the game because it's unplayable to me :(

    Unbelievable, you pay €80 and then they force you to do micro transactions because you can’t earn enough to buy all the cars!!!

The car values have not changed, but rewards are sometimes less than 25% of previous, why? Kaz claims, in his apology for downtime, that he wants everyone to enjoy the cars, how when it would take 10-15 hrs of serious grinding to get enough credits for one of the 20m unicorn cars, that is not enjoyable gameplay. I am more than willing to 'work' for the cars I want, but when you only have 1-2 hours per day for gaming time I ain't spending it on this. It will no doubt be another 5 years before the next GT, but unfortuntaley I won't be waiting in anticipation next time. Expand

    Welcome to the Gran Capitalismo 7!

    Main features:
    - new simulator of poverty
    - insane short career
    - lack of cars
    - lack of events
    - low rewards and bad economy
    - crazy microtransactions
    - online only
    - f2p structure

    The game uses a balance system so if you are not going to pay through microtransactions you will suffer. If you don't pay with real money, you will grind longer.

    "5,000 Credits" at all level of award tickets are unforgivable, making cars so expensive and hard to earn credits, really WON'T help people to like cars, and player.
    This is not a EA or Activision game OK ??
    "Single Player" mode should be able to play OFF LINE, really, player are not thief or cheater.
    And reduce some race award are also unforgivable.

    After all the critic reviews had been released they patched the game to increase the reliance on microtransactions. Shame on Sony and Polyphony for such predatory behaviour. I hope they notice this backlash and restore the franchise to what it once was.

    The game is a simple drive simulation.

    GOOD- Graphic detail; huge garage; basically a GT!
    BAD- No qualification (you start in end of race),
    all the patches are to increase micro-transactions (lowering prize and augmet price of car).

    after the patch I would not buy the game anymore.

    Pros- Visuals look good. Physics & handling are simcade but nice, and feel good on a controller. Fast load times. Day/night cycle and weather(although there are limitations such as can't change weather on all tracks & can only speed up day/night cycle to 10x speed) .

    Cons- Always-on-connection for single player campaign. Economy deliberately ruined to force you to buy MTX. Nothing much

    Cons- Always-on-connection for single player campaign. Economy deliberately ruined to force you to buy MTX. Nothing much to do after the introductory café "campaign". Game feels half finished. No endurance races or anything that needs advanced licences to compete in. Ui is fiddly and cumbersome. Dirt physics are terrible. Can't sell cars as they want you to buy MTX. No decent payouts for longer races. Pit stops are separate cutscene system. Every race involves starting at the back of the pack and overtaking the ai. Terrible lack of customisation in camera positions (can only move it by a few centimetres in any direction, so no way to fill the screen with the dash from inside the cockpit).

    Seems like they released a half finished game with the idea to either release the rest later for free, or based on their current MTX model, more likely to release it as paid content. The game is a full retail game with the economy of a free-to-play MTX grindfest.

    Couldn't recommended in it's current state.
    Without most of these issues it would get a 7/10 from me, but the very fact that it has an Always-on-connection requirement for the single player portion of the game gets it an instant zero.

    Paying up front ($154.00 AUD) for a game that heavily relies on Micro-Transactions is just wrong. I wish I had known before buying it, and I wouldn't have brought it. At the price of these transactions, there is NOTHING MICRO about it...there are some serious money requirements.

    Now it doesn't sit well with me that the Boss says things will improve...improvements (key game making) on

    Now it doesn't sit well with me that the Boss says things will improve...improvements (key game making) on this level should have been in the game already.

    What's the bet soon we will see a season pass for $49.95 as a pay-gate for future content.

    I will not be participating in the rout by PD/Sony.

    Roulette tickets are a joke. The chance to win something decent is terrible.

    The outage...OK fair enough, but the communication to the community was appalling.

    The fact that Collector Level means what? Nothing....you are supposed to earn credits (or buy them with a credit card) and buy cars and this raises your collector level...it takes so much to raise this and you get zip, nil, nada for it....so why both with it...was it just to fill a gap on the screen?

    The need to be ONLINE or you can't play is predatory.

    No true endurance races...where's the ones of 30-50 laps races...boring with current selections!

    The advertising states you can sell cars...you cant! - But there is an achievement that wants you to buy the same car 10 times....guess what, if you do this you are left with 9 cars you cant use...and can't sell...LOL, what a joke!!

    RIP Gran Turismo franchise...the party is well and truly over.

    Let me know when someone starts a "Class Action" against Sony and Polyphony Digital. 'Fraudulent Misrepresentation' and 'Breach of a Constructive Trust' come to mind.

    How much of a "cut" does Sony take for each of these cash grab purchases??

    Never have I ever had a GT game shove microtransactions so hard at my face. You got the lowest reward for a roulette ticket? That sucks, why don't you top up with microtransactions?

You got the lowest reward for a roulette ticket? That sucks, why don't you top up with microtransactions? The community finds a decent way to earn credits? They nerfed the payouts for a good bunch of races. Not to mention certain cars, some of which cost more than 10,000,000 credits, require invitations to buy them, or are only avaliable for a limited time, which is basically weaponized FOMO. Players either have to grind races with crap payouts or fork over real-life money to buy in-game credits before the cars disappear for god-knows-how-long. The McLaren F1 in particular went from costing 1,000,000 credits in previous titles to 18,500,000 credits, which is nothing short of outrageous.

    In short, corporate greed and microtransactions have singlehandedly ruined a video game with frankly stunning graphics and gameplay, and have tarnished the legacy of Gran Turismo. Do NOT buy this game until Polyphony Digital decides to get their crap together.

    And to make matters worse, PD added a mclaren F1 in the legendary shop… for 18.5 mil… requiring about 30-40hrs of grinding to get. Feels like a slap in the face.

Os menus e interface do jogo são simples no nível de jogos mobile, e este é jogo de corrida de 70 dólares o mais caro até então, a IA do jogo é estilo locomotiva, os carros andam em trilhos eles nunca são agressivos o que torna a maioria das corridas sem muito desafio. No jogo também não há danos estéticos no veículo apenas alguns arranhões e amassados leves, coisas em que seus concorrentes já existem desde a geração passada

    Em resumo, não compre Gran Turismo 7 agora não pague um preço cheio em um jogo que te empurra micro transação, e ainda é 100% online.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is no longer the same game that mainstream reviewers were scoring last week. The new update is more of an Unashamed cash grab. Game has lots of issues. multiplayer is effectively broken. You have to close a room session to change tracks ffs? single player can be completed in two days tops. earning cars is now harder as two weeks after the release of the game they decided to massively reduce race payouts (one being 32k down to 12k). This while adding an 18.5 million credit car beating out the previous 12 million highest value in game. The game, despite being a AAA title is run like a pay to play game. after taking a large chunk of money to buy it, it now wants microtransactions at the fore front.2 million credits costs £16 with 100k costing 2. Effectively they have created a 2 tier system. But man, have they screwed us. reducing payouts and increasing cars prices over fixing the actual game problems. No, this is a bad GT game. People will forget over time. Many new owners wont know any of this happened. But those that do, and incidentally were unable to play for THIRTY hours while polyphony carried out the changes, we will never forget. Expand

I’m don’t enjoy online multiplayer and after about 30hrs of single player there’s not really a reason to keep playing this game. Without any reasonable way to make money collecting and experiencing different cars is just to daunting of a task, which is a shame because that was always a highlight of the series. Unless something is done to right this sinking ship this should be the end of the series and this game hopefully forgotten from history because of the enormous double black eyes on this otherwise excellent series that inspired so many others, you used to not be able to talk racing games without gran turismo it will soon be talking about racing games and avoid what gram turismo became.

    O jogo é sensacional, a física de corrida no game é espetacular. Dá de sentir a diferença de cada carro, todos com sua peculiaridades, mas essa atualização de forçar a compra com dinheiro real decepciona bastante, além de reduzir o ganho de moedas in game. Falta de respeito!

    Everything about the way GT7 plays is fantastic. The cars all feel different, the weather can drastically impact the way a track plays. The cars are detailed and tuning them can turn a mundane car into a gem.

Obtaining credits to do anything that you want to do is a chore. I paid $70 for a racing game, I got a $70 bill to do chores. But, I can give Sony lots of extra money if I don't want to do chores. I would rather the game was garbage all around. Don't be fooled by the critic reviews, many of them reviewed the game before the cash shop went live, and nearly all of them before the payouts were nerfed. I do hope reviewers go back and correct their reviews to update the actual game. It is a flagrant cash grab in its current form. I have played actual gacha games that were less predatory. Expand

And it always has to be online, even to play single player mode (which is totally lame) so you can’t even play when their servers fail for over 30 hours. Polyphony and Sony should just merge with EA that way we all know to expect garbage games like this.

There are too many cars ripped right out of GT Sport. You would think this game was made in the mid 2010’s with the cars available. The “upgrades” are priced absolutely ridiculous, just putting soft racing tires on a car can cost multiple races worth of winnings. Hours worth of gameplay if you even want to decently upgrade ONE car. Which leads me to the obvious issue, it is unacceptable how many credits you receive for each race. I’m not playing this game 10 hours a day, I’m not grinding the same race 20 times in a row before they nerf the rewards again. I’m a casual player that wants to jump in for a bit when I have time. Which means I can’t afford any cars I want, I can’t upgrade anything, I can’t even paint my f*****g cars without being broke all the time. But this is exactly where they want us to be, so we buy their outrageously priced credits with real money. I’m not even going to get into not being able to play the game I just paid $70 for because everything is only online and they took it down. Sony should be ashamed at the state of this game, and appalled that the creator is doubling down on his BS instead of accepting fault and making adjustments.

    Micro transactions need to go away along with all of the not so subtle hints in the game that try to convince players to spend real money on credits. The content is completely locked down for any casual user. There's nothing to do but repetitive grinding. And now with the latest updates PD is trying to punish players for trying to access the content the only way we know how. Instead of making it easier to enjoy a variety of cars and tracks like they claim they want for us, PD made it harder and sucked all the enjoyment out of the game.

    Stop monitoring my in game activities and give me the game I paid a premium for that works offline. Give me the single player experience you advertised so I can get good first and then transition to online races.

    Public statements of positive intent are meaningless... Action in the form of game updates that make the game playable are the only thing that will get me to reconsider PD as a company I want to support.

    Right now the game is not worth my time and it's going on the back shelf since I can't return it. I highly recommend people skip this game and if you already purchased it please voice your opinions!

Some of us don't have that privilege to sit in-front of a screen for hours at a time to simply grind, which is forcing frustrated players to either quit the game entirely or pay up for the micro transactions, which I will never do.

    So disappointed in polyphony, always been a fan of the GT series.
    I have played a fair few hours of GT7 now and it is VERY obvious there is a theme running through the game, engineered senorios to tempt you to spend real money, microtransactions, even reducing price money in a recent patch, shocking. We have a choice not to pay real money but the principle with a £70 game.

The worst part is that they are borderline forcing people into the pay to win system with rigged rewards and laughable payouts when compared to the price of the cars in game. As an example, I have had 15 spins, 14 of them were the lowest possible monetary reward, 1 of them was even worse as an upgrade part for a car I don’t even own. This game was the only reason I owned a PS5, and will soon be the reason I only own an Xbox. When a companies only way of getting people to buy their system is with exclusives and they do this with their exclusives it says a ton about the company. Xbox is no saint here either, but every game I have owned on both systems has been better on Xbox by miles. GT7 just lost Sony a customer. This game makes games like Elden Ring that much more special. There is a game that has sold 12 Mil + copies without pay to win, selling me extra skins or any of that other crap, and it’s a fun game that I enjoy playing. Proof you don’t need to assault your customers wallets to be successful.

    Back then you bought a GT title you got it. You weren't even given the option of Microtransactions.

    These days £70 isn't enough. They want more.

    You can see the Microtransactions influencing game design of GT7. Lower payouts. Crappy roulette spins. Insane car prices. PP limits which require tuning if you want to even try to win. Tuning requires credits. You can no longer sell cars. Cars aren't rewarded at the end of a championship or cup. That paired with tiny payouts is a clear push to buy MTXs.

    GT games back then weren't trying to reach into your pockets again after you bought the game.

    It's not the grind. It's the principle. People don't like feeling manipulated and conned. They made these Microtransactions more aggressive AFTER the sales and good reviews came in.

    There were bugs and issues (force feedback on the wheel is still broken), and their priority was not fixing that, but nerfing credits.

    A shame as the core gameplay is good, but other areas have been compromised.

    10 years since the last numbered GT. Sony first party studio. And this is their code of conduct? This is what they come up with? I expect this of EA, not PD. People expected better. And i don't blame them.

Also let us qualify, it’s how real races work. The new update was blatantly planned to be released after the media reviews were completed. The way that the micro transactions are built into the DNA fabric of this game is ridiculous for a AAA PlayStation exclusive. I’ll say that again a PlayStation exclusive franchise costing £70 and it’s using micro transactions to literally progress the game. It’s basically a car collection game at this point. The used cars are timed, you cannot Sell unwanted vehicles. It’s all aimed to get you to spend extra money. I want to escape into video games not be reminded of how much money I don’t have or be fleeced from it. Whats maybe worse is it’s being described as “a real world reflective economy.” To try and hide how the game is built around micro transactions. The worst thing isn’t even the fact that I cannot get a refund. I literally bought the PS5 console for this game as i’m a huge GT fan. It’s awful to admit but I wish I hadn’t. Don’t buy the game in its current state. Wait until Sony and PD make some seriously big changes.

    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.

    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.
