    Microtransactions specifically designed #4theplayers. Microtransactions, which were deactivated during press review, to avoid bad reviews. Well played Sony!

The release was excellent only to shoot yourself in the foot through purposely LOWERING the payouts from races! Disgusting! For those on the fence to buy this game, don't.

    Requiring online connection:
    -Forces updates
    -Forces micro transactions
    -Forces ability to change credits earned -Forces increased cost of vehicles
    -Encourages purchasing of credits
    -Removes ability to play a pre-patch version
    -Guarantees control of our experience

    We will never get an offline single player mode.

    This game started out as a great game, loved every minute, I have happy to grind away to buy cars and then it all changed with the update. It's very clear to see that the update proved that this game is more about microtransactions that a racing game. Why cut the credits, why have such high prices.

    Sorry but the message from the developers makes no sense. They don't want people to mechanically play certain tracks over and over, well what do you think people were going to do and have done in every other GT game. Halving the credits doesn't solve this, it makes it worse and it pushes people to buy credits from the store. Shame on you. I was hoping this would go back to the originals but it doesn't. One more trophy to get and then this will be on the shelf, such a shame. Greedy developers.

    Seems like a bait and switch introducing microtransactions after reviews were finished, and changing the game economy to heavy handedly push users to buy in-game credits. For a full priced game to feel like a free to play cash grab is unacceptable in my view.

I shouldn’t be required to pay another 100 a month if I want to get every rare car before it vanishes. I shouldn’t have to pay anything on a game that I already paid full for. 2) We found a races that had decent paidI’m so happy they allowed zero points for my review.

The latest update cut the price rewards in half. Now it’s just plain unreasonable. They made the game worse for us after we bought it.

    3) Always on drm. Can’t play single player without internet. Last maintenance was over 30 hrs long. During that time you can’t play the game you paid for. 4) Server bugs deleting save progress. Because of it being always online you’re save progress is linked to the server. So even ps cloud saves can not recover your data if it gets lost on their server. Your just out of luck.

And yet "We would really appreciate if everyone could watch over the growth of Gran Turismo 7 from a somewhat longer term point of view". What we'd appreciate is a game where a significant amount of the content isn't being locked behind the gate of "money, please", a game where we don't have to rely on your ability (or lack thereof) to keep the servers running after releasing an update that is designed to force more spending because players found a halfway decent race payout that doesn't make us excessively grind for money to buy overpriced cars. I spent $90 on the 25th anniversary edition because I was genuinely excited to return to the racing franchise that I grew up playing since PS1. In return I received a game that is designed to just take more of my money and the response of "please just wait while we figure out just how much we can get away with so you all will stop complaining". What an insult. Never before now would I have thought Sony/PD should be in the running for "worst company of the year". Expand

    This game is an absolute DISGRACE with microtransactions. Do NOT buy it. The strong ratings from the review sites don’t take this into account because the developers hid microtransactions until all the reviews were out.

    You earn hardly any credits once you’ve completed the cafe menus (short campaign mode), which is a clear design choice to tempt you into buying credits.

    Wow, is all I can say, I pre-ordered this game trusting in PD and Sony after years of enjoying GT from GT1-6 and even Sport. I thought $70 was a lot but that I would be rewarded.

Little did I know this was an online only pay to win game. I would never have bought it for that price. As soon as the server was cut I could not play the single player game (it makes me sick to my stomach that I wasted money on this, I could play that stupid real racing 3 on my phone for free if I wanted that experience). Then I find out they are nerfing the already low payouts for races, not to mention used cars like the GT-R from the mid nineties going for $369000 (that is just insane). The prizes for winning were still pinned to 1998, but the cost of the cars pinned to some insane currently inflated price tag, and then they cut it in half. That is just nuts.

    Sony and PD, why on earth would I even turn the game on again at this point. I haven't, it has sat unplayed for almost a week now on this news. I can't even understand the calculus behind the decision, unless it is just pure greed, again if I wanted to play a game like that I could just play that stupid mobile game real racing 3. I have no interest in F2P, and I certainly feel ripped off right now. I am angry that I even invested in a wheel and pedals to play this game and then this happened. What a bait and switch, what poor practice, what poor handling. I hope this game score hits 0.0 and lives in infamy for how to poorly handle your most loyal customers. Because what you are doing is sticking your thumb in the eye of the people who cared most about your system and your game. GT7 is the reason a lot of people even chose PS5 over Xbox SX... Well it used to be, it probably will be a reason people choose to not return now. Seriously, if I was in your shoes I would be fixing this today, not tomorrow, not next week, not in a month, today. Because, quite frankly, the damage you are doing to your reputation and the rep of this series is pretty close to irreversible.

    I hope you read these reviews, a lot of people are upset, and it is because you changed the fundamentals of a solid game into a cash cow for milking. Treating your customers with disrespect by breaking the game and MTX is always a way to lose money and support.

All you can is play the arcade mode while the whole game keeps asking for internet, you will not have access to the cars you unlocked, not even if you want to know a bit more about the car in the arcade mode.

You cant sell cars while even in their page says you can and the races give so little rewards that its almost impossible to get the cars in the shop. They just throw you macro transactions of at least 40 dollars to own a Hagerty car. Greedy and disgusting really.

    Do not buy this crap!
    I have spent nearly $90 to pre order the 25th anniversary edition in digital version. After the updates 1.08, all I got is a 30 hours offline block and the reduce of in game credits earnings. Online saving sucks, micro-transactions sucks too.
    It’s so hilarious for the statement that you need to slow down to experience the game. And guess what, $20 for a regular car

Can you imagine that, after a tired work at day, I turn on my ps5 and have to work in the game to earn a car in my leisure time??? Thank you, Sony, to remind me the harshness of the cruel life, and the greedy capitalism sarcasm of my poverty: you can never own a super car, even in the game.
    So, can I get my refund? And, I suggest you to revise the slogan, how about: All for PAYERS !!!

    Hey guys. GT7 is microtransaction junk, we all know that now.
    But since I see that many want their money back...
    indicates that the store still advertises that you can sell cars.
    which of course is not the case. asks for an address to file a lawsuit.

    I got my psn credit back.
    much luck!

So on top of this, we have limited car runs, which created a rushed "need" to purchase a car we want. Then you have their outage, which was apparently linked to DRM - for a single player game - which means that my $70 copy of GT7 will just stop working entirely when their servers go down, but also they want us to spend more on the micro-transactions which will eventually go offline and fade into nothing. But the real reason this game gets a 1 in my book - is because of the response by the team leading the GTA7 work - to tell us that we need to "appreciate the value of cars" is an extremely tone deaf gaslighting tactic. Like I don't appreciate that a car costs $700k USD and I will never actually own one in real like. Isn't this why we play games - to escape reality? So how are these top execs making enough money to actually buy the cars that we need to "appreciate the value" for? That's just messed up...and Sony...I'm sad that you're so money hungry. It's really unfortunate. This game is a perfect example of how bad things have become... Expand

    The game is worse than a free android game when it comes to micro-transactions.

    The only way to buy cars is through credits and to earn credits you need to grind so unless you have a lot of free time and patience it's not for you

    Or you can buy credits but why would you after paying 5000₹ for this stupid game.

    Moreover I had pre-ordered this game from Sony website and didn't recieve the preorder bonus.

    When I mailed sony regarding it this was there response

    "As per your e-mail, we would request you to confirm the below mentioned details so that we can assist you in better way.

    Snapshot of that where it is mention that you will receive voucher code with Game Disc.
    Note: Share the Sony website page where it is mention."

    They don't even know what they are selling.

    Oh and the multiplayer is not as straight forward as GT sport it has options for tuning which means you can't take a car and go straight to a race as you will definitely be plum last

    So unless you have ot interest in learning how to tune each car you will not be competitive in multiplayer races.

    Avoid the game, very disappointed

Also carousel of despair is even worse than GT Sport and you can't sell duplicates of cars. The layout of the different venues for tuning and license tests etc is also hap hazard, you have a load of button pressed to get into a race and if you discover you have the wrong tyres, there's no easy fix, it's cancel back out all the menus, go find the autoshop or tuning shop and buy your tyres, then all the way out. Oh and another thing, buying mods, is a mare if you want an exhaust, different levels of exhausts will be hidden under the 5 different levels of tuning part, no easy way to see if you've already got a sport or racing exhaust in one place.

    I know it's a game that I still want to be playing in a year or two, I'll want to collect all the cars, but it will become so tedious I'm likely not to play it. And it wasn't as if it was a cheap game where the in game macro transactions was how they got their profit, this was £70.

    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.
