    Not impressed. Waited years for this game and we were promised a huge single player campaign like in GT4. Where is it? And I don’t like the fact I paid 70 quid and am being hindered by woeful credit rewards - obviously the idea is that we’ll start paying for content. Well I’ll not be doing that any time soon. Very disappointed.

    I’m disappointed with the microtransactions, lack of offline mode, low paying races, high cost of cars, Polyphony’s response to everything and roulette tickets only ever giving the lowest tier reward. Other than that, it’s a pretty good game. I’d normally rate it a 5 but I’m giving it a zero out of principle

    Gran Turismo 7 is essentially the same game as Gran Turismo Sport. The same! The same cars and the same racetracks. To say I'm not lying, they just added two dozen cars and three racetracks. Only!

    Gran Turismo 7 is essentially the same game as Gran Turismo Sport. The same! The same cars and the same racetracks. To say I'm not lying, they just added two dozen cars and three racetracks. Only!

    The feeling that Gran Turismo is not a racing game and racing fun. It's a car masturbation game! Pure car pornography! It has music, jazz, history, coffee, fewer world racetracks and modern cars.

    The difference between the GT Seven and the GT Sport is basically two: they added customization (which was great!) and reorganization of the game design.

    Only that!

    Paying $70 for the same GT Sport is offensive!

    I can't understand how franchises that have budget and less production time available, such as RIDE, Grid and Project Cars, can deliver SEVERAL AUTODROMOS from all over the world, but Gran Turismo doesn't. In fact, after Gran Turismo competitors began to appear, the Sony franchise was never able to keep up with the market competition, as it always had a small number of world racetracks. The most modern supercars, hypercars and racing cars have always been absent! The latest Gran Turismo games, like GT5, GT6 and GT Sport have always lost to competitors in the market in terms of supercars.

    Where are these cars:

    - AMG GT3 Evo
    - Aston Martin Vantage GTE
    - Ferrari 488 GTE Evo
    - Porsche GT3 R
    - Bentley GT3
    - Ferrari 488 GT3
    - BMW M3 GT3
    - BMW M8 GTE
    - Porsche 935 R
    - Saleen S7 GT1
    - Ford GT GT1 Matech
    - Maserati MC12 GT1
    - Lamborghini Diablo GT1 Nomad
    - Ferrari F50 GTR
    - Toyota GT-One
    - Nissan R390
    - McLaren Senna
    - Aston Martin Valhalla
    - AMG Project One
    - Koenigsegg Regera
    - Koenigsegg Gemera
    - Koenigsegg Jesco

    Where are these racetracks:

    - Silverstone
    - Watkins Glen
    - Monaco
    - Indianapolis
    - Motegi
    - Imola
    - Mugello
    - Misano
    - Estoril
    - Algarve
    - Hockenheim
    - Lausitzring - Road America - Potrero de Los Funes - Macau Guia - Everland - Sepang - Shanghai - Kyalami - Philip Island - Donington Park Why spend so much time and resources on peripheral nonsense, music, photographs, history, VGT program, and there are no racetracks, nor the most modern race cars and supercars? If Playstation Studios gave the same time and budget to the people at Milestone or Kunos Simulazioni, I'm sure they would deliver a RACING GAME content much more varied and fun than this game from Polyphony! And to make matters worse: Sony has the cynicism to charge real money in order to purchase cars that are impossible to acquire for normal in-game credits.

    Really disappointed, Game requires always online for single player, that's really a bad Thing. remove micro-transactions, remove online only. This game is complete garbage. The greedy developers are charging $70 for a game where you can't even play the campaign offline.

    Fantastic game, sad to see people review bombing it because they can't have a 18 mil right away unless they do microtrans. And it's annoying that people want to win every race and it to be so easy like Forza. The gameplay is fantastic, the graphics and details are stunning. If your a fan of GT this game doesn't disappoint.

    Just bought the game, wanted to play local multiplayer, yet after 30 minutes and long AF intro i am still in some manuals and explanations and can't even play the damn game, wtf?!
    Always connected, servers down, in-game purchases and overpriced in-game purchases, incredubly slow progression, looks worse than some other much older racing games = 0 Sadly..

This isn't the GT I remember. You used to be able to grind your way up, and save enough credits to actually earn every car in the game and upgrade them to your heart's content. Not anymore. Some cars cost 2 million credits or more each, and to get 2 million credits it will cost you $19.99 in real money. They nerfed the amount of credits you get for races, so good luck getting any of those pricey cars without paying extra for it. They tried to apologize with a 1 million credit gift - but honestly, that is a pittance. The microtransactions are simply a cash grab by Polyphony. People are paying $60 for the standard game. I paid $90 for the anniversary edition, I shouldn't have to pay *anything* more than that. It's the same BS that sports games like Madden '22 and NBA2K22 are pulling, with their card collection games. It's really sad that consumers are not standing up to EA, Sony, Polyphony, Visual Concepts and every other video game manufacturer that puts out a $60+ game and then charges microtransactions for things that should be included in the original purchase. Then to make matters even worse, you *have* to be online at all times in GT7. This is a BS requirement. I paid money to play this game whenever I want, not to have to be online all the time.
    This is the future of gaming, and we are in hell.

That being said, why would a GT fan give this game a 4/10 if the microtransactions aren't being taken into account? Sure, Gran Turismo 7 has the license tests, driving missions, classic original circuits (although reimagined), scapes, excellent replays, and general aesthetic we all come to love. It has some great new additions too like the in-depth car customization, livery editor, sport mode. Overall, on the surface, seems like a solid entry which is why I bought it. That's just on the surface and judged in a bubble though.

    Well, it's been a solid 8-9 years since Gran Turismo 6 and a lot has changed in the racing game world. A lot of good competition has popped up and sim racing is a legitimate e-sport that has developed gamers into real life pro-drivers you can watch take to the track on the weekend. GT Sport and academy played a part in this, so good job there Polyphony. That's about as far as the praise goes for GT getting with the times though. Gran Turismo 7 has some serious core issues competitor games that are much older than it do not have. Project Cars, Assetto Corsa, Dirt, F1 for example.

    The absolute biggest issue is the single player gameplay is very poor and dated hurting the whole game. I'm at menu book 18 right now about halfway through the game and I really don't like it at all. Every single race in the game is a rolling start where you are last on the grid, the lead cars start with a 20+ second advantage, and only have to complete about 90% the race distance you have to because when the game hands over the wheel to you the lead 3 fast cars are already a few corners ahead of you. Some tracks this even makes them skip very low speed corners entirely which gives them a massive advantage. This encourages you to use overpowered cars for the race which isn't fun at all and drive very aggressive sloppy races as you frantically push for the lead in 2-3 laps. There is no qualifying, no grid ordering by PP, no practice sessions, no way to play the tracks until you earn them in the menu book so you can't even practice/tune your cars on your own time. It's a very poor design decision no doubt about it. Gran Turismo has always set out to educate and develop you as a "driver" which is why GT academy and the world championships exist for the GT games. This environment does the complete opposite and honestly I bet the reason the online racing is so sloppy with all the ramming and hyper aggressive players is largely to blame on this poor design. How many of these players are learning how to play GT and learning bad habits from what's necessary to win in single player? This is the main reason the game gets a 4/10 from me because I doubt Polyphony will ever fix these issues. Single player is what it is, we will get new events I probably won't even ever do and that's about it. The races will stay in this stupid arcade style chase format, the ai will stay weak, and single player will stay uninteresting to me.

    I want to excuse the lack of content, especially new content over GT Sport, but how can you? The majority of the stuff in GT7 as far as cars and tracks is just carried over from Sport and the new content barely seems like more than you'd get from an update that GT Sport got regularly. In time I'm sure the content will improve, so this doesn't bother me too much. The real world pricing concept for the cars is very stupid too. Most people can't/won't pay $250k+ for a 30 year old car that came out under $50k in real life, why would we want to emulate that aspect of being a car enthusiast in a game? There is absolutely no one I know of that likes how overpriced a lot of really not that great cars are that we like. I don't know what they were thinking here.

    It's sad really, the core of this game is so brilliant but it's absolutely let down by laziness and stupid decisions by Polyphony. The cars feel great on my direct drive wheel and load cell pedals. The driving is fantastic, which is the most important part of a racing game really. The driving being good is the reason this game gets a 4 instead of a lower score. Everything else about this game is abysmal. The license tests is the only genuine fun I've had so far since it's just pure driving, no BS like the menu book. The always online means a day will come where you won't be able to play GT7 anymore as well. So going back to replay it 5, 10, 15 years from now won't be possible like with GT1-6. That also really hurts the appeal of this game for me too.

    Verdict: If you're a massive GT fan, I still wouldn't recommend buying this game right now. I'd say wait it out a few months and see what the updates do. If you aren't a GT fan or car enthusiast, I'd say pass this game all together. Never thought I'd say this about a GT mainline game, but it's the truth. Peace.

    Y'all are way too entitled. The game is amazing and obviously y'all don't know what a sim game is suppose be like. There was always grinding Gran Turismo and the ppl complaining about buying cars with real money, guess what u can play the game fine without spending a dime, u just got to work for it. Go play Forza or another arcade racer if u want it to be easy and less grindy

    Smaller Car List than other Gran Turismo games (and some producers like Lotus or Opel are completely missing).
    Fewer Racing Types and also stuffed into an annoying story mode. If this story mode and the freed Races would be an addition to other race types & tournaments it would be nice, in that form

    DONT try to earn your price ticket with a steering wheel!! GT7 ignores my buttons and i ALWAYS get the least worth price, with normale sony gamepade it works fine (besides i have there still enough bad luck and frustrating prices).

    Personally i feel like the dirt road races lack more physically correctnes, i had no fun within a single dirt race oO but this can be very subjective.

    My girlfriend which i do visit often with my ps4 has very poor WLAN , so trying to play GT7 is out of question, thanks sony. If u could at least do multiplayer with the online enforcement wiuthout psplus it would be ok somehome...but what do u expect from son *rolling eyes*

    On ps4 the menu loading time are also a little pain in the ass.

    The only thing i can critic positive, the racing tracks look & feel awsome an really up to date, i hope i will see every old track like Grindelwald, but after GT sports i feel pleased to see old tracks very early (hope this will continue but just to have fun anymore to spend more time with GT7 at the moment, THX SONY!)

    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.
