    I have played ALL GT game and this is right after SPorts the most frustrating bad one.
    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

    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 it's a poor way.

    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!)

    Game play is good. Graphics are great. Micro transactions are awful when you paíd the 90 USD versión. Also the GT Auto module continúes to be developed by a different team. Look and feel. Colors, graphics.

    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

The price of the car doesn't include the tyres you need to race so you end up needing 100000 more just for that. The lottery is still rigged, so you end up with the cheapest prize. The community isn't growing rapidly.
    Seriously how long does it take for a company to go "OK this is all wrong. Let's just fix it." and do one big update rather than drip feeding utter nonsense every three months. Its online only, so racing offline isn't a thing, that includes ai. The ai cars are made of concrete (I though t this stopped in 2005) so knocking any form of ai car generally means high speed ramming, which by the way you always inevitably come off worse from, even in light contact situations.
    The list of issues with this game are inexhaustive, I could literally write an essay and this is now 1 whole year on from my original review.
    Actually terrible.
    Its really annoying seeing people stick up for it saying things like it's improving and giving it 8 ratings. A year ago I bought this game and it's still just getting to a point its playable.
    Dont get me started on the cafe and all the "people" I have to "talk" to because the designer couldn't handle the fact that it's just a game, so half the time I'm reading what some cretinous idiot thinks I should know and I can't just turn that option off. All of which takes time away from actually doing what the game is for............ Racing

    I bought the game but it's still in the case. This micro transaction is a shame and devs must be punished to make you pay for cars when you already bought a game, even after this last update. In the same time, I'm playing elden ring Wich is so big and without all this bull$hitt. I'm a big Sony fan but this is not ok.

    I really wish I could say something good about this game but honestly everything about it is horrible. Yes it's a money grab game, yes you can't sell the cars. The glitches are numerous. It's not even better than GT sport which is disappointing. Everything you heard is true. It sucks. I want my money back.

    The game is superb to play based on graphics, content etc. The sad reality is the game has been ruined by ***micropayments***. If you were going down this road, just make the game free then charge everyone. Making people buy the game and then charge in this way is killing this incredible franchise.

    General: No damage modeling
    General: No real time physics modeling
    General: Very poor track textures and graphics
    Online: Lacks player count
    Online: Convoluted balancing system spread over several tiers and systems
    Online: relies wholly on user server hosting
    Online: Very poor connection and performance
    Online: Tracks have to be unlocked via stupid and weird campaign
    Online: No event detail editing even as host
    Licenses: lacks next race button
    Licenses: sports tires are like driving on ice no grip at all (unrealistic)
    Licenses: some of the gold times don’t seem humanly possible

    Personal: In sport mode why force users to use sports tires? Don’t you think sports tires on a GR3 is stupid? Then for some reason racing hards are allowed but not softs? Why? What possible purpose dose this achieve?

    Personal: what is with the café **** This is the most out of touch racing game feature I think I’ve ever seen in a game, a café with cars as the menu? Why do the Japanese find the weirdest ways to ruin what used to be good games?

    Personal: Is car physics or physics in general understood in japan? Japanese games all seem to lack physics, why is that? MGS lacks physics, the Yakusa games lack physics, Final fantasy games lack physics? Why do Japanese game developers not understand physics? Ghost of Tsushima is probably the best Japanese game of this generation and a key reason is its physics, but it took an American developer with an understanding of physics to make it great without the physics where would it be?
    The arrogance of Japanese developers to think they can get away with such a lack of innovation is crazy, as you can see by the user reviews the nostalgia trick has been played out we want innovation not the de-innovation that’s on offer here

    At this stage polyphony’s lack of understanding has reached the point they should retire from making games and maybe do a konami getting in to pachinko, to understand such a damming assessment pick up a copy of 2013 Drive Club (Non4K) pause it in game and select the camera, zoom in on the car model, then do the same with GT7 and you will quite literally see just how far behind the curve GT7 really is in both graphics and enjoyable gameplay the comparison is honestly staggering, why on earth Sony chose to plow their money in to the ignorant polyphony over the stunning Evolution Studios is beyond comprehension, a PS4 release title is graphically better than an accumulation of 24 years’ experience making the exact same game over and over again and a powerhouse PS5 to work with. If I was a developer at polyphony id be pretty embarrassed to list it as a previous workplace, it’s simply not enough to be disappointed at user reaction polyphony’s entire design team from the ground up should be embarrassed by this travesty they have ruined what could have been a stunning return to form with this disgusting money grab entry, I honestly believe this thing is in such a poor state there’s nothing they can do to fix it before the 25th anniversary of the game, if they want to be ready on time for the 100th anniversary they need to replace their entire design team now.

    Do not buy! 2013 non 4k Drive club is only a few dollars and its better graphically, physically and entertainment wise than this dumpster fire ever will be.

    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?

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.

    Game is literally made for micro-transactions. You need to put hours and hours of effort to buy and tune a single car, instead of focusing on driving it you have to bother doing hours of boring content to possibly enjoy the car you might buy, but not only that, for engine swaps money isn't enough, you need to win a lottery ticket and hopefully get the engine you want in a roulette.Game is literally made for micro-transactions.

    Nice looking game. Still prize money for competing is poor. Prizes you win on the lottery are pathetic 49 times out of 50 you win the worst prize. Sport online racing is a joke. A four lap race with medium slick race tyres and literally zero grip after the first lap. After one lap it is like driving on ice. Pathetic. Really don't feel like putting any effort in to keep playing.

    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.
