    If you have no life and you’re able to spend hours grinding and grinding, this is for you. Micro transactions are a joke. Bought a ps5 just for this, now selling it.

    Always online even when this game is 50%/70% doing singelplayer stuff. And lowering the prices you win in certain races, for what? Just bring it back to how it was, and you can save this.

    Half finished game with a full price tag behind it, now being nerfed to try and push micro transactions, I USED to be a huge GT fan but unless they pull off a miracle update I won't be anymore!

    Its started out great, then the update happened and it bricked my $70 game for 2 days due to the "always online" requirement. They lock you out of most of the game if the ps5 can't access the servers for whatever reason. You only get access to a muted arcade mode and music rally. Gameplay itself is great, but the UX is poor and needs a lot of QoL fixes.

Gameplay itself is great, but the UX is poor and needs a lot of QoL fixes. Why have a "tuning shop" that you can't tune and test from? Why in the tuning shop can't I view my cars stats so I an make judgements on equipment I want to buy, but instead you have to back out of the store, to go to your garage, look at your stats, then exit the garage, then go back into the store to buy the item, to then have to exit the store, enter a race for time trial, to test and tune. You see how much time is spent just clicking clicking clinking in and out of menus, instead of doing everything directly from with in the shop? You should also be able to be in a race, and from the tuning menu, be able to buy directly from there, so you don't have to back all the way out to go to the store. Why can't you view the weather prior to entering the race? Instead of entering the race just to find out, oh I have to back out and buy tires bc its raining. There is a ton of this clicking around menus which gets tiresome/time consuming. The campaign was way too easy to the point where I thought I was in a tutorial the entire time, then all of a sudden it was over and all I did for every race was just buy racing breaks and racing soft tires. I basically just accidentally ran through it not even realizing that I was actually playing the campaign not a tutorial and this is a dude who hasn't played GT since gt1 and 2. I'm tired of typing now but the nail in the coffin for me, for a $70 game, is the fact that the game becomes unplayable if you cannot connect to the servers. You can't even get into your garage. I don't even play multiplayer, and you lock me out of my $70 stand alone racing game. I'm not going to beat the dead horse about the in game economy since thats very obvious. Also this annoyed me so much that for the first time ever I'm on metacritic writing a review.… Expand

Also the disc version of the game doesn't contain all of the game data required to play the game. So when the servers go down (They will go down eventually) you won't be able to play the game single player at all. The game will be useless.… Expand

GT7 has the potential to be the best game in the franchise. It looks incredible and the physics are great. However, with recent updates, the game is too much of a grind. Reducing payouts from races, poor roulette outcomes, and the inability to sell vehicles will not draw people into the franchise. It will push them away, especially the people who are newer to the series. Please fix the money system in GT7. Make the passion for cars attainable like you have said… Expand

    Os gráficos são excelentes, assim como a resposta no controle, mas o jogo só funciona online, servidores offline por mais de 24 horas depois de uma atualização que diminuiu os prêmios pra te obrigar a comprar créditos ou ficar horas repetindo a mesma coisa pra poder pagar as micro transações no jogo que teve preço Full é no minimo desgastante.

    INITIAL LAUNCH REVIEW:
    Yeah, it's a zero from me. It doesn't matter how good it looks, feels, runs, whatever. This is not a game I want. Just keep it.
    Unexpected from a Japanese company. Honor really went down the drain with this one. Oh, you want money? Then how about work for it instead of trying to fool and profiteer on those who made you who you are today? Shameful, disgusting,    INITIAL LAUNCH REVIEW:

    Unexpected from a Japanese company. Honor really went down the drain with this one.
    Oh, you want money? Then how about work for it instead of trying to fool and profiteer on those who made you who you are today? Shameful, disgusting, dishonoring, while insulting the intelligence of the most educated consumer markets in the world with the official response as to the reasoning behind the absolute garbage dump of a monetization strategy. It's beyond belief that a triple A with GT's reputation can reach such a user score and breach the top 100 worst rated games ever. And here I was, thinking nobody could sink lower than EA or mobile games. It reminds me of the fat man in the restaurant scene from Monty Python. I feel sorry for the vast majority of people at Polyphony and Sony that actually worked hard and put their hearts into making a good platform and a great game, just to be ruined and disgraced by such borderline criminal practices, like hiding the horrible monetization from early reviewers. It just blows my mind that a full priced game can have this level of predatory tactics that is beyond freemium standards.
    As a car guy, I hope they remove all DRM and real money transactions (I cannot call paying 200$ just for one car - without any upgrades - a microtransaction) from the game ASAP and let this be a lesson to everyone else who thinks we're idiots, but at the same time, maybe it's time the market sees what a triple A total flop looks like and GT7 can hold hands with Battlefield 2042 and jump off the nearest bridge.
    On the business side, I am amazed at the incompetency, complete absent-mindedness and just off-world thinking of the idiots who thought this was going to go well after the response to similarly greedy and predatory monetization practices in Battlefront 2 a few years ago. These people need to be fired and ostracized forever from game development.

    POST INITIAL '1 MILLION GIVEAWAY FIX' LATER EDIT:
    The score is still 0.
    Every reason for the appalling monetization mentioned by Polyphony/Sony is complete **** they applied an aggressive freemium monetization model and there's no possible way to pass specific features as 'mistakes'.
    So, if they addressed the initial freemium complaints, why still 0? Because they even dared to try it and the game still suffers from some disgusting remnants of their initial intention which is ramping up again:

    -there are races/events in the game where the only reward is a 'ticket', which is just a slot machine with rewards that is configured to give the smallest amount possible over 95% of the time, and when you don't get the smallest amount, the next best thing is an upgrade/tuning part for a car that you obviously don't own or even worse, a duplicate car;

    -all the car invitations are 99% for the most expensive possible cars, again a hard push for the store;

    -you still cannot sell, trade or gift cars (see main competitor Forza);

    -there are no updates with new actual features, only adding more cars in the game, in other words, just more content that you'd have to spend money on, thus more chances of you ending up in the store and spending real cash for cars you like;

    -there are no menus for a lot of iconic car brands, like Lamborghini, Maserati or Lancia;

    -the legend car prices are still going up;

    -there is no helmet/visor camera (see Shift 2 from 2011 !!!);

    -drifting is still incredibly hard even with a steering wheel + pedals with clutch;

    -the sensation of speed is inexistent under 200 km/h.    … Expand

    I purchased GT7 and then four days later they cut in-game income by more than 50%. As it was no longer the game I originally purchased I requested a refund, but Sony told me to jump in a lake. Unfortunately, leaving a review is now the only recompense I am able to take.

    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.
