    Can't play this $70 game for more than a day, and it comes back as a worse game with no compensation for down time.

    Million credit compensation for down time and the promise of updates to address issues that have been raised by players upping review to 3. I will increase it if they deliver. The fundamental racing is pretty great, so it's sad to see the game held back by a poorly planned

    The fundamental racing is pretty great, so it's sad to see the game held back by a poorly planned reward structure. Sport event rewards are the biggest problem to me. The sport payouts are miniscule for the time and difficulty involved.

    Primer GT que juego y esta siendo una decepcion! Gráficamente no me parece un escandalo, físicas meh, encima le añades una conexión PERMANENTE(que sin esa conexión y si los serv estan caídos estas jodio), mantenimiento durante 2 dias, micropagos...una "pseudocampaña" corta
    Esta siendo muy decepcionante

    I thought this was a racing simulator.
    Instead, it is a car ownership simulator.
    The credit system needs to be addressed! I've played several GT versions, and the credit system is way too stingy.

    The game was down for over 24 hours. No updates were given during that time, and on top of that they slashed the credits earned during most races to push their MTX (i.e. buy their credits with your real money).

    This is a shockingly disgraceful display from Polyphony Digital and in my opinion, if you want a game that you can enjoy, that feels like the developers put their heart and love

Save your money, and more importantly you time, and avoid this "game".

    Greedy mtx.. Why pay real money for the opportunity just to be able to enjoy the base part of the game? People pay money to enjoy the base game, period. The payout/reward rate is intentionally far too low and people aren't stupid. I hope this hurts game sells even more than they're making through mtx, as well as the companies image.

    Gran Turismo 7 was easily one of the GT I enjoyed the most, it already had too many problems at launch: the economy, which was basically cars are really expensive, and races give you a really small payout; the always online aspect, which is total non sense in a game that has single player. Since yesterday it all went to crap, 25 years in the making, all gone in an hour because Sony andGran Turismo 7 was easily one of the GT I enjoyed the most, it already had too many problems at launch: the economy, which was basically cars are really expensive, and races give you a really small payout; the always online aspect, which is total non sense in a game that has single player. Since yesterday it all went to crap, 25 years in the making, all gone in an hour because Sony and Polyphony sees this game as a cash cow, with atrocious micro transactions, cars litterally costing up to $140USD real life money (yes, you read that right), the game being unavailable for 33 hours even though it's been out for two weeks. The game is now a big fat joke, it's supposed to be a fun and competitive racing game, but now you have to take it as a job just to get the cars you want. I'll give you an example, one of the fastest ways to make money in the game is playing a single race over and over, it takes 5 minutes to complete and gives you a 60k payout (thanks to latest patch), this is roughly 700k per hour, some  cars are valued at 14M in game cash, so 20 hours of pure farm. For a single car. Doesn't sound fun right? "But what if you play the game without farming, you'll get it someday..." I have played this game for over 60 hours, and earned $6.3M, am I supposed to play for another 100 hours FOR A SINGLE CAR? It also brings out a bigger problem in gaming: Do you really own the games you buy?
    Due to server maintenance (which in a normal world would cause only the multiplayer component of the game) the whole game was unavailable for 33 hours. A day and a half where you just couldn't play the game whatsoever. Who at Polyphony thought this was a good idea to make the game always online, this caused a major game outage in 2 weeks. Seriously, I enjoyed playing this game, it plays and feels nice, but everything around it is plain terrible. From a GT fan: Either don't buy this game, or wait for a complete overhaul of the economy system. Me and lots of other won't play before this happens. It's your call now, Polyphony.
    You had a masterpiece in your hands, and you trashed it, but it can still be saved.

    The work they did with this game seems bad to me, the third person is denigrating, as if it were a retro game, the connection requirement all the time, it does not have any contribution or novelty to the franchise, it is like grand tourism but little more polished , in addition to the fact that the microtransactions are exaggerated and you need to invest many hours in the game to get a car, bad

    PD destroyed the game. Microtransactions and lowering the race rewards killed all the fun and turned the game into a grindfest. Don't buy it. If you did- request a refund.

    I bought the more expensive version for the 25th anniversary and decided not to use my credits right away and enjoy my experience of working my way up the ladder.

Expensive early cars and can not sell my old cars for the sake of the company protecting their credit microtransactions should be a crime. They released a patch that reduced your race earnings lower than ever so your only option is to purchase credits using real money. And if that wasn't enough their patch broke the game and server went offline for over 30 hours without so much of a peep from the developers. Radio silence and always online connections prevented me from even continuing my campaign offline as God forbid I wanted to race a track more than once to earn credits for my new car. What is the point in selling a game that I have PAID FOR and preventing me from even playing it! Don't buy this **** show and stand against these microtransaction money grabs. I've heard rumors now that certain cars may cost as much as $40usd per dlc...I hope this is just that...a rumor. Expand

    Better than gt sport but still just as bad. Forza motorsport 7 is still a better racing simulation game, and they shut down the servers for that game too. Reward system is crap! Your're almost guaranteed to get the worst prize from the gift cards. Hopefully they do better with the game in the future and listen to the people.

    Game is designed to prey on people to use micro transactions. Reducing the credits after patch to increase micro transactions is a disappointment:

    I'm giving this game a 1 based on the fact that PD has resorted to implementing predatory micro transactions in to the game. They literally make it an overly tedious grind in order to incentivise the player to purchase in game currency. What a scum bag move. Sony and PD should be ashamed but you know they're not.

    Ask me a week ago, and I probably would have rated it a 7, but in that time, the developer has completely tarnished the Gran Turismo name. I already paid $70 to be able to drive cars that I can’t afford in real life, but now it will take me months just to be able to afford them in this game. The push for microtransactions is absolutely sickening. As esports become more popular, this pay to play mentality is disgusting and will price out hopes and dreams of youth who may have tremendous talent. I have an idea for the developer - instead of trying to pull more money out of your players, how about developing multiplayer games that completely level the playing field - that really make you think and strategize like a racing team would? And while you are working on that, make it easier to earn credits so the microtransaction crap isn’t necessary. I know, that will probably take years to develop, seeing how long it took to release GT7 - a game that feels like it could have been released 5 years ago based on the lack of content.

    Sony and Polyphony Digital ruined the legacy of a 25 years game by trying to dethrone EA with its historical terrible micro transactions practices on Battlefront2 (that even EA had the common sense to remove from the game years ago).

A full price game should NEVER have its content locked behind paywalls (40eur for a car that used to cost 2,99 in GT Sport???) while at the same time providing ridiculous low rewards for playing it (a typical technique to force players into micro transactions with real money). Not to mention the game can be incredibly boring at some times: for example the music rally is something really ridiculous that they force down any player throat before they can do anything with the game; Some of the challenges are the most boring I ever was faced with such as stupid races with the slowest possible cars like fiat500 on uphills, the fuel saving one where we are supposed to spend minutes driving as slow as possible to make the most number of kms, etc. The GT Sport online multiplayer legacy that attracted so many players due to its competitiveness, fairness and ease of use with its non existing tuning and mostly BOP regulated races has been totally lost in GT7, now races are all tuneable and exploitable both with tuning and meta cars (that are obviously bought usually with micro transactions). I truly regret pre ordering Gran Turismo, if possible I would just request a refund and would not touch it ever again until some serious changes had been done and price went down dramatically (Sorry PD but you lost my good faith where you deserved launch price for pre order game).
    Last but not least, it was really sleazy from PD and Sony to hide the micro transaction from all initial reviewers and only enable them for the public release, this was clear review manipulation that should not be allowed in this industry

Then to nerf money making races after a couple weeks into the game terrible!! I was so excited for this game but honestly if I want to play a racing game I might as well go back to gt5. Grinding races to earn money for cars was always part of the game but it was never this horrible before. The lack of many brands of cars is disappointing what happened to all the older cars and “normal every day driver” cars?? Such a shame that so much potential went down the tubes. I’m don’t enjoy online multiplayer and after about 30hrs of single player there’s not really a reason to keep playing this game. Without any reasonable way to make money collecting and experiencing different cars is just to daunting of a task, which is a shame because that was always a highlight of the series. Unless something is done to right this sinking ship this should be the end of the series and this game hopefully forgotten from history because of the enormous double black eyes on this otherwise excellent series that inspired so many others, you used to not be able to talk racing games without gran turismo it will soon be talking about racing games and avoid what gram turismo became.

Your solution is to introduce ridiculous microtransactions whilst also slashing the amount we get from races. How does that work? It now costs over £250 to buy the mclaren with MT's or nearly 100 in game hours to get that money. That is ridculous and it either makes it a massive grind fest or a rip off in real life money. It's really annoyed me because i just want to race people and have fun, i don't want to spend forever racing AI to get money or spend loads more money. This has gone from being an amazing game to being the internets biggest joke just by bringing in MT's and taking away race rewards. Happy to come back if you change things back to a reasoinable level. I HAVE PAID FOR THE GAME FFS! Expand

    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.
