    Good game, but they made it p2w after patch 1.07! Sadly they are trying to become the new EA

    The in game economy is geared so hard towards grinding, for the purpose of pushing microtransactions. In a full price game…

    What a cash crab. Not only is a dlc of gtsport but now is nothing more than a p2w garbage. Imagine spending 80 euro to get a f2p game.
    Edit:And now the game being UNPLAYABLE for more than a whole day. Asked a refund this is UNACCEPTABLE.

    Predatory F2P style microtransactions in a 70 dollar game. They just released a patch to nerf race rewards and lengthen the grind because not enough people were buying their BS microtransactions, and this patch has caused the game's servers to be down for over 24 hours, rendering the game unplayable as 90% of its content requires an internet connection (including single player modes).

I'm reading also that in review copies of the game the games MTX store was not even active, and race rewards were significantly higher. Really shameful anti-consumer practices from Sony here. It's a shame because the actual racing is great. If you buy this game please do not engage with the microtransactions as this is unacceptable in FULL PRICED GAME. Expand

    Gran Turismo 7 is incredible... When it works.

    Unfortunately, the game requires an always-online connection to play the vast majority of its single-player modes, which are an enormous draw for any fan of the series. On March 17, 2022, less than two weeks after the game's launch, gamers discovered exactly why this practice is so disadvantageous for consumers. Gran Turismo 7's servers were taken offline due to maintenance related to a broken update, and most of the game became entirely unplayable, even for gamers who are uninterested in the online racing modes.

    This event gives a gamers a preview of the GT7's future. In a few years, when Sony and Polyphony Digital decide that it is no longer profitable to keep the servers running, any gamer who wants to experience a truly incredible racing sim will be entirely out of luck.

    Polyphony Digital and Sony's community would best be served by removing the always-online requirement.

    GT player since PS1 times here, I'm hugely disappointed in GT7. Already asked for a refund due to false advertising (they advertise you can sell cars...). Such focus on micro-transactions in game that expensive is a scam. Total lack of communication from PD during the extreme server outage - why does it prevent single player? This is just a predatory design focused solely on micro-transactions.

    Polyphony Digital are over, the franchise is now dead. Congratulations Sony, hell of an achievement.

    This game is literally a scam now. Paid 79.99 euros for a game with mobile mechanics and you have to buy currency packs with real money if you do not want this game to literally be your second job.

    And the credits earned every race was reduced to literally half in the new patch. Are you freaking kidding me?!! **** this game.

    Bought the game over 24 hours ago. Haven't even been able to play because servers have been down the whole time, and they don't even let you play SINGLE PLAYER without a CONNECTION. I feel completely robbed, I wish I had bought a physical copy so I could get my money back. All excitement I had is gone after this joke of a technical issue.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Retails at $60 or $70 USD that includes heavy microtransactions, always online, sketchy servers, poor multilayer performance, split screen not implemented correctly, piss poor single player campaign, low race payouts. Maybe buy when all this is fixed. Expand

    Server maintenance issues. I've paid 90 US dollars for an unplayable game. What a waste of money. Also the refund policy is a piece of crap

    Outrageous. I bought this game at launch and Sony thanks me by pushing out an update to ruin the in-game economy and force players towards microtransactions. That and this mostly singleplayer experience requiring an internet connection. I am never buying another Sony game at launch again. I refuse to support anti-consumer practices like this.

    Can’t play without a server connection. Predatory micro-transactions.

    Single player Races= no qualifiers, always last place, rolling starts where you pass as many cars for five or more laps. Rinse and repeat. Doesn’t matter what skill or how many gold medal you have, you are last! This is not a racing game.

    Unable to play the single-player game due to down server. Also, microtransactions are totally unnecessary.

    The game itself is fine, but the online mode is terrible. It is a $70-worth game, however, people cannot play it for two days just after two weeks the game released, as it is doing “maintenance”.

    A horrible game. 70$ for them to force you to buy their in game currency for real money PD got greedy. for a mainline gran turismo game this is missing a lot of content and it’s got less in it then GT sport so gt7 isvery dull and plain, new update completely broke the game and ruined the in game economy.. highly wouldn’t recommend this game a complete waste of money and a pure disappointment

    - forced online in a singleplayer game while unable to provide a stable infrastructure
    - servers down for over 24h
    - NEVER SEEN BEFORE MICROTRANSACTION HORROR in a 100€ game

    I wanted this game to jump in and race online, total nightmare in my opinion. Lobbies all dead! Sport mode requires constant credit spending, the game doesn't respect your time, then the update drops and it's even worse! I don't understand how they think this would all work, I'm afraid this is the new cyberpunk. I deeply regret buying this game... disgraceful.

Force feedback is terrible with no feeling at the edge of grip. I put Project Cars 2 back on seeing as you can’t play GT7 at the moment and my god it’s so good in comparison. Just don’t buy this boring grind-fest. It will ruin your technique if you ever want to get into sim racing too. Expand

    Adding always on-line as mandatory, and increasing the grind to obtain the in game currency. And worst, doing that after the media reviews appraising the game, configures FRAUD and abuse of their customers and fans good will. SONY just nerfed the Gran Turismo IP.

    The game is average, the graphics are barely worthy of being called next gen. Also don’t get me started on the MicroTransactions, buying some cars could cost upwards of £99 in actual money. This game is broken, and I mean literally, for the last 24hours since the latest patch it’s been unplayable as the servers are down, this is poor for a game that costs £69.99

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. So...as you can see from the other reviews microtransactions and always online are ever so present in this game and it obviously brings about some very unfavorable feelings. The actual game though like playing it is pretty spectacular. Great tuning options and courses and layouts are sweet. Weather is so nuce too. But PD and Sony really are going to regret what theyve done with this game...a lot of longtime fans are giving up on it. Deservingly so. Servers are currently down for who knows what...but hey KoFXV just shadow dropped DLC...so more time for that now. :) Also gtplanet forums have some dope memes about the mess this is. And...a ton of ppl arguing on the internet too...so...yea... Expand

The day I received GT7, I completed the licenses with all gold and started the challenges. Completed a few races and what not and within the first few days of playing, found myself earning around 3 million. However, right now, as things stand, it's almost impossible to the credits you need. Especially as the majority of cars are a million and above and long races giving you 30k after completion. The icing on the cake is the large "buy more credits here" after each race completion. Polyphony aren't even shy about how they're practically forcing you to spend real money... Keeping in mind it's £15 for 2mil in game credits which is nothing. Don't get me started on the roulette spins... After 70 or so pins, I am yet to get anything bar the last place prize out of 5 possible prizes. Disgustingly rigged. The driving itself is superb, fun, addictive and down right beautiful at times. However the fun is locked behind a gigantic rigged paywall. Also... I spent 1 mil on a car that I was later given and you CANNOT sell cars 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.
