    This game has been a massive disappointment. No offline play worth a damn, yeh you got a time trial but you can’t do licenses, any campaign races, can’t even visit your damn garage!!

No offline play worth a damn, yeh you got a time trial but you can’t do licenses, any campaign races, can’t even visit your damn garage!! The physics have been ruined compared to GT Sport. Snap oversteer is over exaggerated to the point that some cars are exceptionally difficult to drive. Since patch 1.08 the payouts from the races have been slashed, in half for the case of some races. We’ve been given some cock and bull story about vehicles been priced similarly to the real world. Nonsense. This is a game, we don’t want the pricing to mimic real life. The R34 GT-R was about 61,000 credits in GT Sport and now it’s 450,000 credits in GT7…..piss off!! Ye the R34 has increased in value alot but there’s the real world and the gaming world. PD seriously needs to get their finger out and listen to the fans and fix this game before it’s to late. Expand

    Nice job with false information about being able to sell cars.. no events to earn decent credits, barely no grid start races. But hey; at least we got sweet microtransactions and the best tuning parts gated behind random ticket roulette crap... what a Joke, thanks PD and thx Sony for allowing such BS!!!!

    I spent £50 thinking I would enjoy playing but was quickly disappointed. To earn money for the car I want I have to play for several hours or spend extra money on the game. I work and I do not have time to grind for money

    1. Online only even for SP, so servers are always down so you can't play the game
    2. Payouts on races is pathetic taking an age to earn each million
    3. Can't sell unwanted card for money 4. Cars at 3+ million will take you either 30 hours to earn, or $40/£36 to buy 5 SP "campaign" cafe books is very short Great feeling game - but everything around it brings it down to make you feel

    Great feeling game - but everything around it brings it down to make you feel disgruntled while playing. So I put Forza 5 back on last night so I could enjoy myself again. Shame, because the tracks in GT7 are great too so would love to play more, but as is, the game is simply not fun with all this blatant money first methodology rather than fun for the consumer

    Being a long time fan of the series I love the GT series. Not this one. Even bought a PS5 and new 4K tv to play this. I regret that decision. Gran Turismo 7 belongs in the garbage bin. Yet another game ruined by micro transactions. Highly disappointed. Save your money and buy WRC10 instead. Definitely more fun.

    I paid full price for this game, expecting to drive over the nordschleife with my favorite cars like the Lamborgini Diablo, Countach, Ferrari F40 and McLaren F1.

    But what an illusion is that. Almost 10 hours into the game I’ve not yet unlocked the nordschleife and only have like 300.000 credits. As someone who played GT3 & GT4 I know progress takes takes time but in GT7 it’s just
    I paid full price for this game, expecting to drive over the nordschleife with my favorite cars like the Lamborgini Diablo, Countach, Ferrari F40 and McLaren F1.

    But what an illusion is that. Almost 10 hours into the game I’ve not yet unlocked the nordschleife and only have like 300.000 credits. As someone who played GT3 & GT4 I know progress takes takes time but in GT7 it’s just abnormal. I’m 34 and have full time job and a family, I don’t have the same spare time I had as a single teenager to spend just to get the credits to be able to buy the cars I want.

    The cars I would like to drive cost millions of credits and are only available after invites which expire. They seem as unreachable ingame as in real life.

    After the last update in which they even made it harder to earn credits ingame the developer made a statement that they want to reflect the real life value and rarity of these cars.

    Why? This is a game, a driving simulator, not a real life simulator. I play games to escape from real life and enjoy things I can’t or won’t do in real life.

    I don’t play any F2P games due the push towards monetisation and I refuse to buy any credits for real money in a game I’ve bought for €80,-.

    I’ve lost the appetite for this game in the state it is in and I’ve put it aside. I picked up Horizon Forbidden West again, hopefully GT7 will be fixed when I finish that. And if they don’t fix this it will be the last Gran Turismo I’ve played and I’ll wait with buying any next Sony game until it’s clear that they’re not ruined by the bad management which screwed up this game.

    Less car than GTS, parts can't be Uninstall, no car selling but push you keep spending CR(and real money), price is 20 times expense than same car in GTS. GT7 just destory the name of GT. I will play another game once similar on market.

    This game is just a credit card simulator. You can't play offline, and, if the servers aren't down, you have to play about 17 hours to buy a nice car. Painfull game, don't waste money for this ****

    DONT BUY THIS GAME!!!! PAY TO WIN!!! First of all how is it even possible that the servers go down for almost 36 hours for a game which is just a few days released especially when the producer SONY is?

    The way more annoying thing is that the freshly released update nerfed all the race price money so you have to buy cashcards in the psn store otherwise you wont be able to purchase high

    I mean what is going on in their minds?

    And one really sad thing about the game is that it is a **** Copy of GT Sport. Brand central is exactly the same, almost the same cars. Missions are lame, licence tests boring because they are the same **** as always

    The graphics arent significantly better than gt sport on a ps4 pro. Forced to be Online is also really annoying and useless. Not everyone is a online racer. WHAT THE HELL HAS TAKEN SO LONG?

    Was in love with the game and found a decent way to grind credits to be able to purchase cars and upgrades to compete in other races. Then boom, Poly pushes an update completely turning the in game currency on its head in favor of pushing users to pay more real world currency to advance. Yet another game ruined by micro transactions…

    Save your money and find better games and or developers

    Game and mechanics, good. Physics, good. Realistic? Hell yeah. Way of progressing and rewarding system to buy cars? Kinda bad. Also, nice touch from creator to show how big of a cųnt he is and I hope his hopes of getting money from microtransactions for vc will fall to ashes. He ruined the mood and a good game.

The fact these changes didn't come until after the review copies were established clearly goes to show the malice behind these decisions from upstairs management. This game series is long dead, and will remain that way so long as it is ran by incompetent staff. Expand

    I actually enjoy the racing, apart from everything being grid start. Micro transactions are forced upon you by not allowing you to accumulate wealth when following the menus as the game leads you to do.
    Furthermore, you can't even sell cars that you don't want. HELLO I want to race not collect cars like they are pokemon!!!

    Unfortunately, I was one of those that fell for the marketing hype and rave critic reviews surrounding this game which no doubt shrouded the stark reality of MTX driven game design. I've created an account on Metacritic just to warn other prospective gamers not to fall for the same trap as myself and many others - there are plenty of other racing sims more worthy of your hard-earned cash.

    To further add insult to injury, what is mostly a SP game cannot be played without an online connection, which is fine if Polyphony Digital were competent enough to keep their own servers up without 30 hour downtimes. This developer has clearly never heard of a "roll-back" plan, and was more concerned about the MTX it would be losing.

    To top of it all off, Kazunori's apology must surely contend as the most pathetic excuse for a developer's actions. Just as Kazunori's statement skirts around facts, this review will also glance over the good that the game had potential to offer.

    The only way to save face now is to pull a U-Turn and:
    - Allow SP to be played offline
    - Allow selling of cars (just like in the real world) - is this not a simulator?
    - Buff race rewards
    - Buff daily marathon rewards
    - Introduce daily challenges with increased rewards
    - If you insist on keeping MTX, bring credit to cost ratio in-line with predecessors
    - Justify why some cars are valued more than 3x the cost of the game itself?
    - Remove time limited legendary / invite only cars pressuring player base into MTX, particularly those that are vulnerable
    - Remove 20M credit cap on earned credits, given that single cars cost up to 20M. Interestingly, no cap on MTX credit

    This is my first and last foray into the GT universe.

    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.
