    I've been playing GT since the first iteration. The new GT7 is a joke. Sure it delivered some nostalgia of the older editions however when compared to their competitors they fall behind in just about every part from graphics, the non-intuitive interface, sorry ass social integration, and worst the pathetic director Gran Turismo 7 Kazunori Yamauchi released a statement on PlayStation BlogI've been playing GT since the first iteration. The new GT7 is a joke. Sure it delivered some nostalgia of the older editions however when compared to their competitors they fall behind in just about every part from graphics, the non-intuitive interface, sorry ass social integration, and worst the pathetic director Gran Turismo 7 Kazunori Yamauchi released a statement on PlayStation Blog about the situation regarding a streamer Lifeisahighway79 This is what he said:

    “Why don’t you try adult, LifeIsAHighway79? You want a bunch of random cars thrown at you all the time while the banging soundtrack plays. True, thought what – Gran Turismo 7 isn’t that. Enjoy Forza Horizon 5 or heck, try DriveClub. I don’t care. As for the me and my body, we will measure the distance between the outside of our tires and the center point of our axle to increase our propulsion and suspension in a path that you are not allowed to anymore."

    This is a pathetic attack on someone because he decided to play a different game? Now I don't know who this streamer is nor do I know the full details but to have a Director of GT7 chiming in degrading an individual on a public platform is a form of bullying. I play games to get away from the real world, not be crucified publicly. So if Kazonura can see this... here's a BIG FU from USA! I'm boycotting your broken ass greedy game and will never buy another copy unless you publicy apoligize to the streamer "Lifeisahighway79" , to the GT7 community and the Forza community. You have no right to tell us what games we are allowed to play..

    Gran turismo used to be a really nice game series. But in the meantime it has become only a disgrace and unbearable. You have to be always online to play now! And now pay to win has also been introduced! WHY?? If you don't have internet, the game is not playable! I don't want that!! IT'S A SHAME! NO, THANKS. I regret buying the game!

    Have been playing since PS1. This has been five years in the making and is just horrible. Zero AI. The cars just run in single file and you have to pass. They don't race.

They parade around the track in single file. Have never seen this b4. For the return of the single-player game as GT7 was touted there is no content. The cafe is just a long tutorial. You used to be able to choose cars for the first races from a selection of about 20 cars. Now you have one. Do this and get one. Use that one, now use the next you got as a reward. It's not like anything GT has done b4, and I don't mind changes, but this is just a tutorial that you have zero choices in what car to use. There are no more leagues. You used to be able to play from Beginner League to Endurance. There's zero. Beginner League alone had over 50 races. How many races after the 39 level rails for the tutorial? Ten different race series with an average of three races each. Horrible. I've yet to bring up the fact that they cut race payouts in half so it took longer to farm cars. You used to be able to buy individual cars for between $1 and $5. Now the expensive cars are over 18 million credits. But you can buy 2 million credit packs for $20 each. That means the expensive cars are $180!!!! WTF is that about? They didn't include the credit store in the game until the day of release. That means all of the reviews had zero clue it would cost that much. **** of them and deceitful! Sad to say this is the end of an era for me. Paid $80 to have 1/4 the amount of content of other GT games. How the head of the studio keeps his job we have no clue. He went from a god to a money grabber to people overnight. Sad. Expand

    I prefer to play Forza, with beautiful graphics and without the extortion of these microtransactions.

    This game feels like it is unfinished. Rushed to release. Disgrace for AAA title.
    Also very, very pushy for micro transactions.
    I have played and owned all of the previous major releases and can say that this one for sure is worse than you can imagine. Such a disappointment.

    Terrible credit rewards, can't sell cars to make money, greedy developers need to fix this ASAP as the game is almost unbearable once the menu books are finished. Furthermore, the offline mode is non-existent, even though you bought the game, really you own nothing without an internet connection. Sadly, I feel the damage is done now, this is the last GT I ever buy

    It takes a whole live to get some credits to buy a decent car to race on Gr4 or Gr3, or of course, pay for them in real money, very greedy indeed. I think I'll quit playing, I have no time enough to finish it, wasted money in my opinion. Very disappointed.

    TOO MUCH RAIN. Even after update 1.11 on March 7th we have too much rain. You can enable weather radar and zoom out to 60 miles. It doesn't help! Tells us after it's already raining!

The PS4 can't handle it? So what. The PS5 people don't want it! Freaking rain every race where it's possible. Lame. The rest of the game is pretty good. I have played every Gran Turismo. This is a good game when it stops raining. Expand

    Where sould I begin?
    The menu system is horrible. If I want to apply a paint, I have to go into the livery editor, it's not enough to buy the paint. It should apply it automatically. Why do you think I buy the paint? To out it on the shelf?
    The penalty system is brokennn beyond anything I have ever seen. I barely leave the track and I get a 0.5-1.0 sec penalty, the guy ahead of me

    The penalty system is brokennn beyond anything I have ever seen. I barely leave the track and I get a 0.5-1.0 sec penalty, the guy ahead of me completely cuts the corner and gets nothing. Then when my penalty counter runs out and I'm back from ghost mode, a guy hits me full speed from behind and I get a 5 sec penalty.... I get hit often and I see the culprit not getting a penalty. But hey, let it be. But when I get hit and I get the penalty, that's messed up.
    The lottery tickets. I complete the daily workout, and I get 1 and 3 star tickets. At collector level 44.... This is a joke. Then I "scratch" my ticket and still get the **** "reward" available. 5000-10000 credits in a game where cars cost 3 mill to 20 mill. Why would I bother playing when the rewards and the penalty is this messed up? Get your act together. This is an embarrasment to the previous GT games.

    Full price £70 which has been down for 24 hours for maintenance due to it being needlessly always online. Significantly less content than previous games, poor AI, and stupid rigged roulette games to earn rare items which guarantees the lowest payout every time. Wish I’d never purchased, should have stuck with my nostalgia of previous GT games.

    A pile on? Why not, it's just getting old now. Too many games costing more and more then tweaking the in game economy to push you into making a purchase. It's not right in a full price game.

    The game cannot be played if there is no connection or the game servers are down (like the last 22hrs btw).
    Races and events prizes are ridiculously low, farming cash is a pain and take ages, even for a skilled player.
    Force feedback on wheels is buggy (at least on g29), you can't feel the car sliding and the terrain like in other racesim games.

    I love the GT7! Not really a great game, but I don't agree with the policy of the game, for which I paid 80 EUR in the Playstationstore. Race rewards are ridiculously low and the game is a big grind for better cars. Unfortunately, I don't have time for that as an adult working person. The main thing is that there are microtransactions that are incredibly overpriced.

Not only did they release this game at full price, they throw in microtransactions and then they severely nerf the in game rewards to try and make the MTXs more enticing to buy the already expensive cars and upgrades.

    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.
