    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Spoiler alert! We got a raw deal. We were sold a game that did not include always online play for single player campaign. We were told that we could sell cars. We were shown the races and their payouts. We were told that over 400 vehicles were available upon launch.
    ALL LIES!
    After only two weeks of launch they have decided you have to be online, you cannot sell anything, the payouts for races are now halved, and cars are not available unless you want to spend the rest of your lives grinding for minuscule payouts or………… purchase credits with your real life money. To win a championship in “The real racing simulator” does not earn enough money to purchase………. Racing tires.
    Tires?
    I’m pretty sure that winning championships across all levels of auto racing affords you buying tires.
    Seems like the only thing real is the micro transactions.
    Nice way to repay your loyal fans since GT1. They can have their silly pay to win micro transactions so that the try hard crowd can pay to win but the only way to make this right is to do the following.
    1. Get rid of must be online to play single player.
    2. Restore the race payouts to what they were at launch.
    3. Allow players to sell useless duplicate cars.
    And as a bonus add endurance races, and world championships with realistic payouts. Not enough money to buy two tacos at Jack N the Box.

    It really pains me to leave this review as I am a lifelong Gran Turismo fan since the first entry, and it's my favourite video game series. Polyphony Digital have generally been a fantastic development house, which makes the decisions they've made in this entry all the more disturbing.

    It really pains me to leave this review as I am a lifelong Gran Turismo fan since the first entry, and it's my favourite video game series. Polyphony Digital have generally been a fantastic development house, which makes the decisions they've made in this entry all the more disturbing.

    The game itself is a solid 9/10, even with some content shortcomings, but I trust this will be addressed with further updates. However the game with the always online and frankly, spiteful "micro"transactions is a 0/10. I wish we would stop calling them microtransactions as they are far form micro in this case. The way in which Poloyphony Digital have designed this game to maximise revenue through microtransactions is disgusting. The fact that 2 weeks after launch, they made it their priority to reduce rewards is disgusting.

    If Polyphony Digital do a 180 and remove the always online component from the single player game, and reduce the games reliance on microtransactions (I don't mind some, just not to the extreme it's been implemented here) I will change my score. This isn't a free to play game, it's a full price title, we shouldn't have to pay for anything other than additional DLC.

    A fantastic foundation ruined by Sony being a complete predator. Times are bad enough without Sony thinking it’s acceptable to charge people hundreds of pounds to drive cars that are available for free in other games.

    "We would really appreciate it if everyone could watch over the growth of Gran Turismo 7 from a somewhat longer term point of view"

    LOL!

    This game has gone completely downhill after the update. Big-time game critics reviewed the game prior to the update which means they were not allowed certain access to newer add-ons through the update for example the micro transaction area. This is an absolute slap in the face to us players and is being looked at as criminal activity. Do not buy this game.

    Diga não as micro transações. O mercado de game está se perdendo com essas práticas nefastas. 70 dólares já é dinheiro de mais em um jogo.

    I feel like I've been ripped off. The microtransaction system to buy cars Is a robbery. I paid over 50 pounds for this game for my PS5. The cars are out dated and the decent ones will take you days of grinding to get the credits to buy them. if you want to buy one it could cost up to £ 40.00.

    I'll give it a 2 because it's a very slick and fun to play racing game on the surface, and I've personally enjoyed taking a slower pace. I'm not particularly obsessed with pursuing any great goals other than completing my daily "workout", which is a hilarious thing to call it.

    I'll give it a 2 because it's a very slick and fun to play racing game on the surface, and I've personally enjoyed taking a slower pace. I'm not particularly obsessed with pursuing any great goals other than completing my daily "workout", which is a hilarious thing to call it.
    However, it becomes apparent after your first dozen "roulette tickets" that, under the surface you are playing a gambling game, and the house and the economy are both stacked against you. After 30 or so roulette tickets, constantly getting the absolute lowest sum possible, you realize that these tickets are a slap in the face, they imply there's one in five spin happening, but really it's rolling a 100-sided die, and unless you roll a perfect 1, you ain't getting squat. Once you learn more about the game's economy, and the designers' plans to make this a game of the haves and the have nots where the cars of our dreams are reserved for the wealthy (whether rich in time to grind, or real-life money, he says he wants those cars to be as unattainable in the game as they are in the real world). Shame on this obvious cash grab. It's a two-star game as it is, until they seriously re-evaluate the game economy I don't recommend.
    TLDR; TELL LUCA HE CAN GET STUFFED.

    I am returning this game. Forget about microtransactions on full price game! I am ok with DLC but these are not!! Cutting the winning credit in half to force you to but credit with real money. I ain't going to pay $40 for a 2014 Lamborghini Veneno. I don't want to win 400 races to get it either!!! Sony's greed killed this game

    Repetitive. Very predictable regarding the roulette rewards. Alway end up with the lowest value prize. Shame as I was really excited for this. Not paying more money to buy other cars

    Game is trash and scummy practices need to die. Deception and lies and misdirection will get your game, directly screwed over so good luck PlayStation and Sony. Hope you like you’re trash business practices.

    Shell of a game. Short, boring and linear "campaign", terrible AI, multiplayer that's worse than GT Sport, online only. What is in the game is built around microtransactions.

    Realized I can't play the game offline. WTF, always been able to play Gran Turismo offline. Also selling credits?!? I mean come on if I wanted to pay premium price $80 for a game, and only realize by the way you need to pay more for other cars because it's not feasible to get them by just PLAYING THE GAME....

    F*** off

    Can't play 70$ game without internet. 70$ game has incredibly overpriced currency on the store, which should not be there to begin with. Cars that would cost 3$-5$ previously with a direct purchase, now cost anywhere from 10$-200$. When servers go down, (for example: 30 hours) i'm left with a blue and red paperweight.

    Older GT games will last forever, while this one will be gone after

    Latest patch litterally ruined the game.
    More than 100$ for a single car, hours of farming to hardly gate a million credits.
    Maybe they'll learn for GT8

    Can't sell your cars?
    Have to pay more than the initial purchase of the game for cars you might want?
    Decreasing the winnings from races?
    CEO says they need to keep prices more realistic? Sir, an air filter does not cost $2500 get a grip on reality..

    Love the gameplay other than the micro transactions and always online. This is NOT what we want. Because of that I’m giving it a 1. Hopefully they see these reviews and make some changes.

    Polyphony have really dropped the ball with this one. Was good at launch but after some recent patches it has made the game way more of a grind to try and get you to buy the micro transactions. Plus the always online even if you only play the single player is a joke. I have went back to playing Forza 7 and Forza Horizon 5.

    Unacceptable being part of the nasty experiment created by other companies of spending real money on the game. Polyphony digital and Sony don't have any respect to the customer.

    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.
