    Good driving, nice graphics, payouts and vehicle price is insane. As a casual gamer it will take you five years to earn every vehicle. I play once or twice a week. I’ve earned $30,000,000. GT Planet thread shows you need $426,000,000 to buy all the cars. I’ve owned it since it’s release. No light at the end of the tunnel.

    They lowered payouts by a lot. Then bumped them up and

    They lowered payouts by a lot. Then bumped them up and people were happy but they didn’t even bump them up by half of what they cut them bye. Not sure their logic? I’m losing interest in this game really fast and wish I wouldn’t have bought the anniversary version had I known they would pull this kind of stuff.

    This is more of a honest review, for someone who has play a GT game before, but not a huge fan of the series.

    Pros -Game looks amazing on the PS5 - Controls are very good and responsive, and supports different control layouts and drive wheels - Did not run into any glitches/bugs - Very accessible in terms of having easy modes and assist like automatic breaking - Hardly any load
    This is more of a honest review, for someone who has play a GT game before, but not a huge fan of the series.

    Pros
    -Game looks amazing on the PS5
    - Controls are very good and responsive, and supports different control layouts and drive wheels
    - Did not run into any glitches/bugs
    - Very accessible in terms of having easy modes and assist like automatic breaking
    - Hardly any load times on the PS5
    - This is a surprising aspect, but I actually like the photo/camera mode, I generally find these modes as more gimmicks are just whatever who cares, but it's actually well designed where you can take well timed photos of your races. Like a good example would be crossing the finish line.
    - Music is great, love the classical music, and the intro was smartly done
    - Always liked having to unlock cars, instead of having most readily available

    Cons
    - A few too many clicks/menu screens to get to the next race, although not a huge deal considering the PS5 has basically no load times, but this could of been condensed/designed better.
    -loooool we gonna really use stock photos for characters with no voice acting. come on now I mean I get the idea but they could of designed like actual characters that you talk to for the story mode.
    - very small complaint but very odd choice that you cannot skip the intro of the game which is several minutes long, and you have to go into settings to make it where it doesn't play each time you load the game.

    Overall, it's what I expecting, and that's what I wanted. Ignore the negative reviews as those are just stupid or they have never played a GT game before and have unrealistic ideas of what this game was supposed to be.

    Todo lo que se espera de un gran turismo y más. Tiene mucho cariño y mimo en todos sus cojces y modos como la historia, aunque tiene ciertos aspectos que se podrían mejorar como el aspecto gráfico y alguna mejora en la cámara externa pilotando, fallos sin importancia para la gran experiencia global que te aporta como fan de la saga.

    Jesus F Christ with these “0” reviews. Looks like review bombing is a new fad these day. How’s no offline mode a thing people still complain about. Can you knock it down a point or two for that, sure, but a zero, seriously?!

    The graphics are flawless. The racing is fun. Serious care went in to making every detail of this game as perfect as possible. It feels both modern yet nostalgic.

It feels both modern yet nostalgic. Unfortunately the macro-transactions and engineered lack of initial content make this a 0/10 for me. The inability to enjoy the campaign without internet is unforgivable. I can understand the high price for cars to be reflective of real world cars but you have to give a little on either being awarded those same cars with difficult races or by making credits easier to come by. Not only did they do neither of those but they nerfed payouts and made it where you can't sell reward cars which was a huge feature of the earlier games. This is a robbery of $70 ($100 in my case since I bought the 25th anniversary edition since I am a religous fan). I paid resell value for a PS5 because I wanted to play this game so bad. I genuinely feel lied to and swindled as someone who has gone out of their way to play every Gran Turismo. I have learned an expensive lesson. EDIT: the game has hardly improved from this. They are ruining the franchise. Expand

    Edit: what a huge relief to see PD working on the issues instead of going the routw of Rockstar or Bethesda. Looking forward to the upcoming changes and additions.

    Original: Very sad to see so much loss of pride for greed, and PD's comments on the matter just cement that it was intentional, rather than something Sony forced. Perhaps they can redeem themselves in the future and bring what

    Those who gave it 0 should be completely ignored. why? here are some of their reasons:
    1. Single player requires internet connection - yes that's strange but not a deal breaker
    2. Micro-transactions - until now I've progressed to about 50% of the campaign and didn't have to buy or pay any real money, and the only time I felt I have to buy a used car to win a race it was using the in-game

The game never suggest or encourage you to buy anything.
    3. Graphics - the lighting work is amazing and although this is a cross-generation title the PS5 enhancements are massive (source: digital foundry)
    4. Game purchase is blocked in Russia - has nothing to do with the game and its rating

Yes great news, buy the game, enjoy a race, cafe and get 3 cars then it’s license time. Nothing else opens up until you’ve done the God forsaken license’s. Laguna Seca, oh how we’ve missed you Expand

    Gran Turismo 7 is the best simulation racing game in the history of video games and also it's by far the best game in Gran Turismo franchise.

    An exceptionally good game ruined by microtransactions. The AI very weird and basically all of the races are with rolling starts with cars kms apart. But the physics model is amazing.

    Gran Turismo 7 is the best GT game since GT4, and probably the best Gran Turismo in the entire franchise

    This game has amazing physics. There are very few bugs or frame rate issues, the game looks amazing. The dynamic weather is awesome and adds a new layer to the game.

    Gran Turismo 7 is a huge leap forward in terms of graphics, gameplay and in terms of cars and car collection. This is the game that GT fans are waiting for.

    Much improved economic model, players can feel some progress even if they have only a little time to play.
    Still some issues; on line only in all parts of the game, no car sales, weird spikes all over the tuning model, dodgy physics(racing slicks in the rain are still drivable) and a strange lack of content even from GT Sport. eg only the Ferrari 458 GT3 which is a decade old even tho

    Worth a purchase now but very far from perfect, the 9 and 10 scores are not credible.

    Updated from a 3, the developers are listening to the player base.

    The game looks amazing on PlayStation 5, with a fully immersive experience with dualsense.
    Another excellent work from Polyphony.

    Gran Turismo formula is back!
    PS4 players deserved a real Gran Turismo experience. Of course, the new gen version couldnt be so ahead of the old gen for obvious reasons, but it's clear that it pushes the PS4 to it's limits (and beyond) and PS5 with a good gap for the next game.
    I love Forza Motorsport series, but the big difference between both games is that Forza is pure racing, and

    I love Forza Motorsport series, but the big difference between both games is that Forza is pure racing, and GT is pure automobile passion and history.

    As a car lover, I rather the second option. GT7 provides this, a game that you enjoy on and outside the track, enjoying the culture of cars and it's universe. The progression is not so easy like Forza, it's hard go get money and good cars at the start. And thats pretty good at all! You feel more connect to the game and take value in your actions and choices, making you give more importance to your garage and car list/upgrades.

    In Forza, I have cars in garage that I never drove, lots and lots of infinite money and absolutely no reason to think next moves or upgrades on cars, you can just buy a faster one and it's done.

    GT7 is not perfect, of course. The microtransactions it's a shame thing. The starter races are so easy and that classic thing of start in last place it's totaly out of reality of real racing. Imagine if all the races in the real world the last racer tooks the podium? Something would be TOTALY wrong.

    But why I gave a 10? Well, a mix of nostalgia and satisfaction of it's deep respect and depth in car culture. GT7 is a love letter to the old fans (like me, a kid from the 90's), a good welcome for the new players that love cars and a promissing game if you think of whats next to come in the next years updates.

    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.
