    DRM needs to die. physical or digital single player game but u can't play for 24 hours because their servers go down. unacceptable. for a racing game that's so perfect at the game part, it gets a 0 score for drm. take that away and its a 9/10

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I am a fan of the series since Playstation 2, have been playing and enjoying the series for over 15 years.

    On the Playstation 5, I pre-ordered the game in 2021 and have been waiting for the release with great anticipation.

    On the release date, I was able to drive a bit and play the game.

    But what was my surprise that they returned the money for the pre-order and took the game away? I'm from Kazakhstan and I don't understand why Sony is so sloppy about the fans of the series.

    Judging by the videos and reviews, the game does not give anything new. I will never buy games in the series of Polyphony digital again.

    Could have been so good but the game is pretty much useless without internet connection and the prize money system is totally broken.

    Imagine a top level racing simulator that doesn't even have a starting grid and every race is a rolling start. Mix that with the very predator micro transaction and the always online requirement I cannot recommend this game. At EoL any purchase or progress you have gained will be completely worthless.

Mix that with the very predator micro transaction and the always online requirement I cannot recommend this game. At EoL any purchase or progress you have gained will be completely worthless. The excuse for the predator micro transactions are they want cars to reflect real world prices. Which if I wanted to look at cars I will never be able to afford I can do that in real life. Then the excuse for race payouts being lower is "we don't want player's to grind the same races for money. So either the development team expect you to only play one race once or this is a very poor excuse to why they are out pricing top tier car's. Then the cherry on top is you can be forced to stop playing in the middle of a race for over 34 hours just because of "maintenance" for a £70 product this is a complete joke and as someone who owns mutiple platforms and has access to Forza I cannot recommend GT7 to a regular fan only die hard fans who don't mind paying real world cash for cars they can earn in any other racing game.

    Terrible terrible game. The driving is fine, bur graphically is subpar if it's not the car. Always online. The game didn't work for 30ish hours. Nothing was given as a gift for being unplayable. The race rewards were reduced by like half. Microtransactions are ridiculous. This is a $70 game, but should have been free to play. Avoid.

You know how in the PS5 dash when you select a PS5 game it will play music, like Horizon Forbidden West or Spider-Man, or Astro’s Playroom? Well GT7 throws up a micro transaction box right on your dash! Understand that things are worse now than when the game was reviewed at release. Patches have come out making the grind and the micro transactions worse and more aggressive. And they didn’t just lower the credit rewards for winning races after launch, they have raised prices on cars, even in the last game to match this! And tuning is so over priced that it is not worth it, you lose money when you tune and win the race. I would not have bought had I known what was going to happen. I also don’t like the UI, and how to navigate from the weak single player aspect, to online, to daily challenges. The music races that you can jump right into without going through a dumb confusing interface that deliberately tries to confuse and conceal the lack of content, and are fun, but don’t even give any credits as far as I can tell. This game feels stingy. Very stingy. I said that about Gears 5, and it seems that Sony is going to follow Microsoft and others down the micro transaction rabbit hole. No thanks. I’ve played this game about 4 times since launch. Luckily I’ve been distracted by Elden Ring and Horizon Forbidden West, I feel sorry for those who really were looking forward to this game. Sony is trying to make this game a live service game. In order to play this game, even the single player, you need to always be connected to the internet. In addition to the obvious, that you don’t own the game even if you buy the disk, because you can’t play the game at all unless connected to their server which can be turned off in the future, when there is a problem the game goes offline and you can play. That’s already happened at least once and the game could not be played for 30 hours, even in single player. This was $70 and it feels like a free to play live service game that is riddled with micro transactions and online only service. Like a mobile game. Pretty sad, do not buy. I’m going to uninstall this 106 GB example of corporate greed and be more careful with Sony in the future. I’m done with GT games. Expand

    The biggest issue the game has is being online only with very limited options for off-line I can’t even use my cars that I’ve paid for offline.

    What a piece of junk riddled with microtransactions. Never before have I felt so duped by a game producer. Sony should be ashamed of themselves, the only reason to buy a Playstation are the exclusives and once they start screwing those up there is not a single reason why Xbox isn't better.

    Да, в этой игре и так был донат, но теперь он стал чуть ли не обязательным. Урезали число получаемой валюты, с целью подстегнуть сообщество к микротранзакциям. Я бы вполне понял если бы так сделала free-to-play игра, но Gran Turismo 7, это никакая не f2p, это игра и так за большую стоимость...Да, в этой игре и так был донат, но теперь он стал чуть ли не обязательным.

    Screw this game. I have been a GT fan since I was a toddler and I could not be more disappointed. It's unfinished, barely improved on GT Sport and they've just added a patch making race rewards so low that it's impossible to get rare cars without either grinding 12+ hours a day or spending hundreds (and I mean hundreds) of pounds to get the rare cars.

    I used to love the series. It did some questionable choices for the sake of money as far back as GT5 (selling single use paints as DLC, for instance), but it was never egregious, certainly nothing like today's games can get. GT7, however, already started out as mean with its rewards (chiefly the roulette spins that just happen to give you the lowest reward 90% of the time), and with the latest patch, they turned the game into a total grindfest that also tries to tug on your FOMO strings (e.g. the system of invitations: brief windows to buy expensive cars you most likely can't afford)... unless you'd like to buy some in-game currency *nudge* *nudge*

    Beautiful visuals and physics but that's where it ends. Ridiculous pay outs to push microtransactions. Finished the campaign (if you can call it that) and barely have any currency or top tier vehicles. Nerfed payouts in latest update. £70 for this is a joke. Never preordering a Sony game again

    Erstens finde ich es unverschämt, den Spielern eine dauerhafte Internetanbindung auszuzwingen; zweitens machen die Entwickler alles, um den Spielern das Geld aus der Tasche zu ziehen, beispielsweise durch das wenige Geld nach Rennen

    server connection required for single player mode (servers down for more than 1 day)
    intransparent communication from developer regarding technical issues

    microtransactions implemented after reviews/release
    recent patch reduced earnings for wining races as promotion for microtransactions

    Microtransactions in a £70 grindy game. Automatic 0/10. The game itself ain't bad but these are some of the worst microtransactions I've ever seen and the fact that the developers are okay with this and think it's the way forward makes me want to vomit.

    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.
