    Can't play without internet. Oh well I'll live, but reducing the payouts and increasing the cost of vehicles, along with the ridiculous physics that make every car dance on ice unless you are a professional mechanic and understand every detail of car tuning make this game no longer enjoyable for casuals, it's is aimed at people with no job, no family, no children, no commitments.

    Avoid for now.

    Expensive in buy, but much worst are prices of new cars (micro transactions), cars damage is poor, access to play required internet connection.

Anything you want to do related to your cars, you need credits and they are rare. I haven't finished the menus, but considering the sport mode races I have been doing I can see why people are pissed. The credits are pennies. You can almost predict your daily rewards. I love to play in free time, I don't live to play. The developers did not have casual gamers in mind at all. Grind like 10 hours a day may be you can have your rewards, like 1 really good car but I don't have that much time. Expand

    Impossible to earn credits and you have to upgrade parts in most vehicles to make any race viable otherwise yours took castings no chance making it to 1st in 3 short laps when you start in last position every campaign race. And they announced they're making it harder to earn credits and raising the price of the vehicles even more than its predecessor Gosport.

    Random and poor car selection, ingame prices ridiculous high and ingame earnings very low, forces microtransactions everywhere. You have to grind like hell to get one (1) better car ( not to mention the prices for tuning) or pay like 120 Euros for an higher priced car… why polyphony?

    Let me start by saying this. I never write reviews. The fact that I had to create an account just to speak out on this game just shows how disgusted players are by the direction this game is heading.

    Polyphony Digital and Kaz Yamauchi should be ashamed of themselves. The GT series used to be so good and so pure - a lot of childhood memories came from this game. Unfortunately, they are ruining everything they worked so hard to build for. They wanted to make this game fun and accessible for everyone, however they did just the opposite. Reducing race rewards when it was already hard enough to earn credits in the first place is laughable and hypocritical. Like others are saying, you literally have to grind the same races for days or buy over $100 worth of credits just to buy ONE CAR!!! This is completely unacceptable and a huge slap in the face for GT fans and casual gamers who have lives outside of the game and just want to get on and hop into a race. Not only did they reduce the rewards, but the roulette ticket system was already cheap and rigged, and car invitations are very time-sensitive which can create FOMO. Polyphony won't admit it, as we've already seen in Kaz's weak *** apology, but the fact is they are just another GREEDY CORPORATION looking to MAXIMIZE PROFITS by PUSHING MICROTRANSACTIONS that aren't even worth much at all. Thanks capitalism!

    Another huge issue with this game is that it is almost 100% unplayable offline. You cannot advance in story mode or do any missions or license tests which is absolutely ridiculous, because most of the modes in this game are NOT online multiplayer. Not only is this a problem when players want to play during maintenance, but this is another huge slap in the face to players who may not have or lose access to an internet connection.

    Polyphony Digital you have embarrassed yourselves by going against everything we thought you believed in. You wanted to bring new players into the GT series and make it fun and accessible for everyone, yet your product shows that you have done the exact opposite. You never really cared about the players. You only care about profits. Even though the graphics and physics in this game are amazing, you have done everything to push old and new players away, making this game completely unplayable. We will not accept your BS and will continue to fight for what is right for the community.

The microtransactions! i’m so fed up with, especially after patching and nerfing the payouts! how are we suppose to buy these limited cars if we can’t even spend 6 hours just to grind for 2 million credits, 18.5 million for a mclaren, while yes i get they are trying to be realistic, but you might as well make the payouts realistic, i know damn well a racer who preforms in gr3 classes doesn’t get paid 5000 for 1st place. and don’t even get me started on the roulette tickets. absolutely rigged and you can’t do ANYTHING about it, you cant close the application and spin again in hopes give you a better item, no because the chances of you getting what you want in that roulette ticket, is the same chance of winning the damn lottery, payouts in the roulettes are ridiculous as well, 2000 credits for 1 stars most of the time, 5000 in the two stars, 3 and 4 stars should be giving you parts considering tuning is pretty expensive and it would atleast be nice to get a part for a car you OWN instead of a 1.8 million dollar car which you need to buy to apply the parts for. and my experience with the roulette have been frustrating, on my main account i got nothing but one or two gold bars (100k each) a ton of coins, and an invitation, i passed so many engine swaps it was so frustrating. in hopes to an engine swap, i made another account, spent two whole days grinding the game out, finishing, only to get the same thing in roulettes, only exception was getting one carbon drive shaft… i hope PD sees these critics and heavily changes their game, if they don’t then the game is only going downhill from here.

    I could never recommend this game to anyone...the latest update nerfed the payouts and pushes you towards microtransactions to earn the more expensive cars...the roulette wheel is a complete joke, give you the least valuable prize 95% of the time...plus you need to be online at all time to play the single player mode....so if their servers go down you are completely screwed out of your $70 game

    Story is wayyyy too short and grinding for 10 laps for 50k is absolute rubbish when the car you want is three million! 90 quid for the deluxe paid and now I have to pay 30 quid to get 4 million credits to buy a car I can't use if the servers go down. Hang your heads in shame PD you're scumbags!

    I created a Metacritic account for the sole purpose of reviewing this warcrime they are calling Gran Turismo 7.

    I have been an absolute fanatic for GT for 25 years with 10's of thousands of hours "seat" time. This current iteration is 100% trash. F@ck you Polyphony and Sony. Everything about it is infuriating. From the absolutely INSANE macrotransactions ($180.00usd to buy a McLaren F1)

    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.
