    I bought a PS5 for this video game. It's an insult to the followers of the saga. Polyphony trash

    The game is amazing, don't listen to the angry Xbot mob who are here to spoil the party.

    Hugely disappointing. It's too similar to Gran Turismo Sport, the events are poor and the in game economics are a disgrace (although better after 1.09). Also the offline gameplay is a complete joke.

    Grindfest. Micro-transaction cash grab. Lacklustre Daily Races with little variety. Boring Career mode. Tiny amount of new tracks. Gacha rewards where 90% of the time you will get a rubbish award.

    Cars and handling are highlights.

    There's an amazing game, hidden beneath-Micro. transactions. Always. Online. It's 2022. Hi, Sony?! C'mon!! This is a flagship game and feels like it's not getting the right attention in design. The micro economy within the game feels off, broken, and needs addressing! The single player campaign should be playable offline!

    Impossible de jouer le mode solo sans être connecté, ce qui pose probleme lors des phases de maintenance en ce moment et surement encore plus dans le futur. Des maj qui baissent les gains de crédit et qui va pousser à utiliser les MT.

    This game embodies everything wrong with modern gaming. Fake trailers, micro transactions introduced after launch. A product that looks and feels unfinished. An absolute disgrace.

    The "campaign" doesn't give you even 25% of cars available, and not even one really expensive car just for finishing it (even when there are hundreds more).
    Then races pay too little, cars are way expensive and even enough credits to to fully mod a car can take a lot of races.
    All of this to influence you to buy MTX to save time. Truly a shame, too much greed

    GT7 is half of a solid sim racer with plenty of extra info for car collectors and a (mostly) great driving model.

The visual and audio presentation is a mixed bag--as per usual in Gran Turismo--but the guttural roars, growls, and banshee wails of those sweet exhaust notes still give me goosebumps.

    Behind the wheel, this game has few peers. Everything else feels like it was lifted straight from a 2000s-era title designed in a back-alley pachinko parlor by a jaded marketing executive.    … Expand

They yell us "we want you to race many races at different race tracks and not farm a single race a 1000 times." But what they have done is instead of increasing the rewards they have taken away the only races that are rewarding. Furthermore the top racing disciplines are not represented in the race offerings. Everything available ends at GT3.… Expand

    I knew about the potential online issues going in but assumed servers would be stable. They weren't.

    The microtransactions were an annoyance before but lowering event rewards so soon after launch, to push people to pay more is underhanded.

    Total disappointment! 24hours server down,no single player content,no compensation,nerfing credit payout for incentivising microtransactions! And the weak excuse which Yamauchi gave pathetic. If thos wont be done right this will be my last GT game

    - Getting Gold in some Missions or Licenses is f*cking ridiculous. No PD, not everybody intents to start a career as a virtual whatever the f*ck driver. I just wanna play my game and have fun.

    - This collector level stuff is bullsh*t. My garage is full with sh*t cars I don't want to own. You can't sell your cars btw, just delete them.

    - F+ck your FIA license! Because of this sh*t, the game is always online and you see how this turned out. Not a single soul was able to play your game!

    - F*ck Sarah, f+ck Luca, f*ck all of them! I don't wanna read their sh+t! I don't care.

    - The Roulette Tickets! OMG, the Roulette Tickets! Imagine a fake "RNG" thingy with five prices. 99,5% chance you get the worst price which means a little puddle of money (2.000 Credits) and 0,5% for a car part for a car you don't own, of course. This whole is so rigged, it's not even funny anymore.

    I'm not sure what past issues with microtransactions were, but gaining credits is not hard. This is not forza and you will not be starting with a Lamborghini. This is by far the best racing game in years. The only issue I have is that every career race so far has been rolling starts, other than that, it's perfection.

Developers have recently nerfed credit earnings to the ground, saying that rare cars should be rare and hard to acquire.... but you can spend $40 in about 30 seconds to buy the car with real money. How exactly does that promote rarity if someone can open their wallet and get the rare item instantly?

    On top of that the game is clearly designed with F2P mechanics in mind. Daily Roulettes are terrible and hardly ever reward a decent prize. Used car shop fills slowly with cars you need to buy before they disappear for an unknown amount of time. The legend shop just now refilled with a car that costs 18,500,000 credits!! It'll take over 30 hours of grinding the same race over and over to buy it! Or pay $180ish to get it instantly :)

    Limited time invitations, that you only seem to get via daily roulettes, to buy cars with 1,000,000-5,000,000 credits further incentives the player to purchase credits with real world dollars. Otherwise you'll miss out on buying the car and you won't know when you'll get another invitation.

    On top of the economy problems, there's just a general lack of content for the game. 39 menu books took a laughably short amount of time to get through and missing endurance races, grid starts, tracks, event modes, and more really really shows.

    Tl;dr, economy for this game is completely geared to push players to buy credits with real world dollars. Lack of post menu completion content is barebones and laughable.    … Expand

    Gameplay great but no-one should accept the DRM nonsense and online requirements for what is basically a single player racing game for the majority of a user's experience. This is a slippery slope if we accept these kind of practices without protest. For that reason I have to add my voice and zero score to the understandable 'review bombing' that is happening here.

I crying shame playstation is doing exactly what they criticized the xbox one was, with an only online infrastructure for even single player games. And the update that broke it made payouts less in the game so sony can get more microtransactions. Hopefully these reviews and no one buying it makes them push an update for offline mode because this is sad for a great series I cringe to see what theyll do with destiny III at this point.… Expand

    The game is designed like a cash grab phone game with horribly slow progression. They weren't bilking the players for enough money so they slashed the race rewards to try and force players to spend more.

    Morally bankrupt business practices is a nice way of putting it.

    70$ game Filled with Macro-Transactions, and slow boring grind just to persuade gamers to buy Macro transactions.

    Not to mention the always online requirement even for a single player aspect... (This Is For The Players) lol.

    A 10 for the game itself, it's brilliant. However, the horrible economy where I can't even buy a car I need for an online race.
    Even in career you need to spend money to perform certain races.

    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.
