    Este es de los mejores gran turismo que tiene la saga. Es cierto que aún tiene cosas que mejorar pero como todos los triple AAA. Es una gozada jugarlo en play 5.

    A true marvel for my eyes and hands to play this on a PS5. Officially the 1st racing game that has me eyeballing a wheel to dig into sim driving even further then just the casual fun weekend of couch speeding. Amazing experience! Their are MT’s but I’ll be ignoring those and it’s easy to enjoy playing and unlocking only what I really care about.

The license challenges are the stuff of broken controllers. Just so close to Gold level but infuriating at the same time when you miss the timing. But once you get your head around the perfect racing line, speed & braking it does feel rewarding in the end. There’s hours of fun & content to be had in GT7. If you like racing games or simply enjoy cars there’s so much to draw you in. It’s not a perfect driving game but it does encourage you to drive a perfect race & over time confidence builds & you just enjoy it all the more. A solid 9 out of 10 from me. Expand

    Very realistic sometimes comes with consequences in driving but plenty of ways to learn to play the game, has some small details that are very neat. Very detailed plethora of cars and customization.

    Ignore the zeroes. GT is back and as good as ever. The only issue I have is after all these years and multiple titles in the franchise, they still insist on rolling starts which is fine but when you unlock missions catching the lead car can be frustrating. They get a good 1/5th of a lap lead in some cases. Other than that it's a solid 9 out of 10.

    Right so I don’t usually do reviews, but it’s quite clear that this game is being review bombed by people salty about the always online nature of the game. (I mean, who on earth is gaming offline these days really?)

    Gameplay is absolutely superb, it’s repetitive in the sense of you’re essentially doing the same event on a different track with a different car, but each car feels different enough to where you never really feel bored.
    It has a great sense of progression too, starting you off with the slower, more boring cars & allowing you to work your way up into the more powerful cars at a steady pace, which is much better than just throwing HyperCars at you like forza does, here, you always have something to work towards.
    Graphics & sounds design is also flawless, the relentless screaming of a turbo charged RB26 tearing up tarmac & 150mph feels, looks & sounds outstanding, I’d argue outside of asseto corsa mods on pc, this is the best sounding racing game you can play.
    So then, the only drawback would be the microtransactions.. which really aren’t a huge deal, yeah you can just splash out to unlock the ability to buy whatever car you want whenever you want, but it never becomes pay to win, because a lot of the events online & offline are locked by things such as; cars power, region, drivetrain etc.
    All in all, this is the best gran turismo since 4, and it excels it in a lot of ways, if you’re a car enthusiast & don’t just play racing games to go fast with no knowledge, this is the perfect racing game. This is a true car enthusiasts game.

    This is by far the most complete & accessible arcade sim racing game I've ever played. It's a solid 9 points for me, but not much for anyone else except:
    1/ You are really into the racing simulator territory;
    2/ You are off to a challenging game;
    3/ You aren't in a rush to finish it.
    For the first point, I think this is a game you shouldn't miss. It's one hell of a polished game with much better physics than ever before, almost impeccable graphics ever on a gaming console, and a ton of challenging content to finish. Not to mention the sport mode if you are to compete with other players online. Sure, it's not as realistic or professional like other purist sims, but it's the most balanced one between sim and entertainment---a kind of game that is rare to find these days.
    For the second part, it's hard, especially when you turn all the assists off. The tire model this time is much more realistic than that of GT SPORT, the weight transfer is direct and delicate, the rain condition enhances the physical side-effect to another level. You have to have a strategy for the whole race and potential weather change. It's also very rewarding to play for all that I mentioned above, every race is like a small test to your ability to control the car.
    And finally, it's a painstakingly slow game. You would most likely spend countless hours of playtime to finish the basic challenges, then another countless hours to multiplayer. There are tons of content to try and err if you truly invest in it. On the other hand, if you are in for a thrilling ride, this game might not be for you.
    There are one major problem with this game tho, about the grinding and in-game purchase. Bad example and end of the case. I paid $90 dollars for the 25 years anniversary edition, it's a joke that I still have to cash in more to get a digital car. Minus 1 there.
    Finally, about the political issues. I'm afraid I still have to evaluate the game based on the game itself. If politics were involved the probably in the following year many games from many studios would be labeled 0. This is a platform for me to give a game its credit for the content.
    But what I will give an ABSOLUTELY ZERO to SONY --- if you really want to pick a side and ignore the other, the least thing you could do is to provide the refund option for those who couldn't play it for such reason, it's just stupid to cease the support all of a sudden for those gamers who did nothing but were born there.

    The game is addicting, collecting, tuning, and racing my cars has kept me waiting anxiously to the end of the day so I can play more Gran Turismo 7, only complaint is the lack of more modern cars, aka: Tesla Model 3, Porsche Panamera, Aston Martin Vantage, Lucid Air, Mercedes Benz AMG Gt 4 door, Genesis G80, Kia Stinger, BMW M3, and of course more SUVs.

    Edit: The most recent patch Polyphony has pushed out fixes a large amount of the issues I presented in my original review. I'm so glad that the message was received and that they understand that we are not going to be forced into paying real money for items in a game that already cost $70.00. I'm a big fan of Gran Turismo and love everything about the series including this entry despite starting off on the wrong foot.

The actual game though like playing it is pretty spectacular. Great tuning options and courses and layouts are sweet. Weather is so nuce too. But PD and Sony really are going to regret what theyve done with this game...a lot of longtime fans are giving up on it. Deservingly so. Servers are currently down for who knows what...but hey KoFXV just shadow dropped DLC...so more time for that now. :) Also gtplanet forums have some dope memes about the mess this is.

Sony allowed PD or PD decided, one way or another they seem to have clearly righted the ship and have delivered on their promises to re-adjust the economy in the game and the payouts. Selling cars is not yet available but I’m withholding judgement there since they’ve made good so far on their most recent promises and have improved on the game since previously nearly killing it. Kaz is a mastermind of racing culture and car appreciation. I’ve been enjoying the game tremendously and have hopes that Sony and PD keep good on their commitments and remember how to treat fans of the game who were pivotal in spreading word far and wide for 5 generations of Sony consoles to make this franchise one of the key system sellers imo.

    Gameplay and graphics are fantastic and GT7 is an amazing game for racing game fans. The game offers multiple modes from singleplayer, casual and competitive multiplayer, as well as splitscreen races.

    Players can purchase and earn new cars and there's a tuning system that enables upgrading and optical and performance tuning for all cars. Detailed car settings can also be tweaked and finetuned to adjust for different tracks and weather circumstances.

    Negative aspects:
    Online requirement for the singleplayer part.

    Cars are still much more expensive than previous GT games, but Sony and PD listened to players and will increase in-game rewards again. Microtransactions for a full price AAA game are not nice, but with more balanced rewards, cars should become affordable without purchasing MTX - some grinding is expected as it was the case in previous GT games.

Logged a lot of hours on GT3 A Spec with the official steering wheel. As I moved onto the PS3, I got a proper driving l seat along with the PC Logitech G25 Wheel, gear stick and pedal set. On PS4 this combo stopped working as they try pushing users to newer models. That said with the Drive Hub adapter it emulates newer wheels and works just like it did on PS3.

    I got GT Sport late in the day due to poor reviews. I got like a year later and eBay, with all the updates thought it was great. I got GT 7 on launch after discounts cost me about £52 not £70. I got the PS4 and paid the £10 upgrade so I can play on both consoles.

    GT7 is a great game and a big step up from GT Sport. A much more complete game. As I'm using a wheel I can't really comment on how well it plays with the dual sense. But with a proper wheel, especially a seat it's amazing.

    I response to all the crazy feedback in the "news cycle the past week" and users scores of 0. What a massive over reaction.

    I never spend real money on micro transactions, I'm cheap and it's kinda cheating anyway. I've amassed ~35 cars so far. Think I'm on menu book 18 or so. I'm enjoying "the grind" learning the game etc, building up to the faster more expensive cars.

    So I admit I wasn't affected by the servers being offline for 30 hours. I'd not played for a good few days due to work. But this down time is not on the same league as Cyberpunk being a buggy mess. Or Halo missing half of the normal features.

    On patch 1.07/1.08... maybe they were encouraging those that can't wait to spend real money... Maybe they were trying to balance the game? Maybe I'm not the target audience that was affected by the changes.

    Some people are upset that they paid £70 for a full game and therefore expect access to all the content day 1.
    In my view you get the rare cars for putting the effort in. Who really needs to drive every single car. Looking at my gt7 stats page on the web: Since launch I've logged in 7 days but only had time for 4 proper sessions of just under 2 hours each. I've earned 461,00p credits, driven 439km. I have kids so don't have much time to play / watch them play.

    I recently unlocked split screen multiplayer that you mentioned, but I'm playing through the cafe books. I also have access to online, but I'm too cheap to pay for PSN, so only special free weekends for me. I've nearly finished collector level 9. I own 6% of the cars.

    I'm on level 22 and completed 34% of the campaign. I've never bought a car and have 1,500,000 credits. I only by cars or tuning if I don't meet entry requirements or can't beat a race. It seems like you earn credits more easily in GT7. For me I'll be playing this game on and off for years.

    Some of the graphics continue to surprise me. I played a night to day race the other day, really like how the headlights reflect all over your car interior. When driving I really don't miss the proper ray tracing. The approximated equivalents look pretty damn convincing. I'd much rather have the 60fps, with the cinematic 30fps and ray tracing during menus and replays.

    I know mandatory online could be a problem for some. GT Sport for PS4 had the same thing. Luckily for me I have fast broadband so no online issues. If you were online I guess you can play music rally. I understand the requirement to avoid hacking, fake race times etc which would be a bigger concern.

    The benefit of online to me is that all my progress is in the cloud and I can switch between consoles and just carry on. I think PSN has a similar feature (Cloud Save), but I don't subscribe to that (no online racing for me)
    But the unique thing here is I can switch between PS4 and PS5 and back to PS4 no problem. Handy as my driving seat and rig is generally hooked up to my old PS4, with the PS5 downstairs for the kids.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Honestly I don't see the fuss over the new patches. I bought the game only a few days back and it's great fun. The whole credits issue- it's slightly annoying but that really can't spoil the entire game. This game is speculated to last the next 6-7 years, essentially until the next mainstream PlayStation is to release so there should be lots of content for players to get through, and right now, that is the case. The game is slightly limited when you first start off, but once you're on your way it only gets more fun. This is from someone who got into Gran Turismo only at the launch of GTS, so maybe I'm not entirely correct, but still this is a game worth playing. It's still in infancy too, so there’s still lots yet to see. Expand

    I get that people feel slighted by the credit changes and I will admit that the outage was probably the not the best time to introduce that, but it doesn’t detract significantly from my enjoyment of the game. It’s still the same beautiful racing masterpiece that it was before the update. Sure, it will take a few more races/credits to purchase the more expensive cars, but that could also prevent us from growing bored of the game sooner by obtaining them more easily. Prior to the update, I was pretty impressed with how quickly I was earning credits with minimal effort anyway.

    People worked incredibly hard to make this game as good as it is, and it’s impossible to deliver something that is flawless and pleases everyone. Leadership may not have had the best judgement in this situation, but it doesn’t completely negate the majority of what makes this game great. Prior to the release of this game, I only owned a PS3 that I barely used 2-3 times a year to play GT6. GT7 was the reason I purchased a PS5, and it has reignited my passion for the series and gaming in general.

    Looking forward to many more years of fun with GT7.

    Long time player of the GT series and this year's has been a disappointment so far. Not only has polyphony pushed towards micro transactions instead of viable ways to earn money in game, they severely lack in communication. There was a 30 hour outage the other day with not one word on what was going on. Things happen, but not letting your customers know what is going on in an 80$ game for over a day is rediculous. Honestly, the single player part of the game shouldn't even be tied to online, that would have solved the problem before it began.

    Update with patch 1.11 : The game is great they increase CR for racing and activities so no need to pay. Just play and you can buy anything you want.

    Patch 1.07 (1/10):

    They don't want you to farm they just want you buy more. pay more!

    The game itself could be very good, but microtransactions from hell are ruining it. Cars can cost up to 200$ - this is no joke. Grinding these credits has been made more time consuming with the latest patch, which is just a joke.

    Edit: They reacted and made it more easy to earn money, they will implement selling cars, too. Im fine with that.

    This game is probably the best racing you can get but it is a problem that when servers are down there isn’t much too entertain you until there back up.

    Each release has improved immensely over the years, with the exception of GT Sport which I agree felt a little empty with content.
    However, GT 7 is incredible. The graphics are superb and the racing is absolutely brilliant and the most fun I’ve had on a racing sim for years. The attention to detail on the cars, reflections and circuits is astonishing.
    Now, a quick jump back to the original GT on the PS1. I remember spending literally DAYS grinding the game to save enough credits to buy certain cars. That’s the enjoyment of the game, or any game isn’t it? I want to race on a racing game, that’s kind of why I bought it? It’s no secret that all developers are using micro transactions in all types of games! Even a pre-order is a micro transaction dangling the carrot in front of people to pay a bit more to get a little extra. I’ve been playing GT 7 for over a week and have felt no need whatsoever to even consider buying credits for real money. The fact they are there does not annoy me in the slightest. The fact I can literally get every car in the game by playing the actual game is what I thought people realised when purchasing. For anyone really complaining just think about it, race cars, win races and grind for the credits. Don’t be upset because you can’t be bothered to grind and want to fast track but can’t because you don’t agree with the cost of micro transactions. The game is truly awesome for anyone reading these reviews. Ignore the majorly critical reviews or take it with a pinch of salt. ✌

What if i am not Online, yes i cant play the game and my car will be gone.
    Change the Reward System back, give more credits to normal people. I paid 100 Euro for the game and all cars are on my disc, but you locked it before i paid or play 1000 hours the game. Insane for this hard times we have.

    THE ROULETTE SYSTEM IS A JOKE. 30 Tickets and only 1 CAR, 2 TUNING PARTS an 2 times 10.000 Credits, 25 TIMES ONLY GET 5.000 CREDITS.

    Sorry if this seems more of a rant, but I'm really fed up with the lies of people who don't like to sweat it.
    Oh and I never found brands like Forza motorsport to be easier on the grind.
    Oh, and remember that today every game let's you spend way too much real money on it with microtransactions, the difference is, Gran Turismo 7 does NOT need you to, if you want and are determined enough you can get everything in the game by simply playing the game.
    Who played Gran Turismo from the beginning should remember how much we raced again and again in the same race.
