    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Le jeux est vraiment bien,les graphismes sont tres bon,les gens se plaignent que les prix sont trop cher,personnellement je ne crois pas,dans le monde de l’automobile tout est tres cher et si ça serait trop facil ça serait ennuyant. Léquipe ont donner 1million de crédit a tout les joueurs pour s’excuser, donc non le jeux ne mérite pas detre si mal noté, le mode sport qui est génial,les courses en ligne sont tres bien. Le seul petit défaut cest que le jeux nest pas long, je lai vite fini,mais il y a le mode sport, mission pour s’amuser. Les modifications des véhicules sont cool. Les musiques sont tres bien… Expand

No matter how many patches, updates etc they will force you to download, in the end youll have paid 50$ and youll be able to play only 4 stages and 13 cars. Its a demo. A live service. With subscription of ps+. If you havent paid more 60$ for your ps+ then you wont be let to play online. It has megatransanctions. The average price of cars is `784$. The lowest price of a car is 40$.Youll see also cars with price tag of 5$ but those are few and worthless.
    I recorded the sound of the 60$ demo when wheels spin. I compared it to sound of Gran Turismo 1 of spinning wheels.I charted it and made a graph of it. I checked the frequencies. They are the same. Their data is 16kilobits compressed.Which proves they used the same sound effect of ps1 Gran Turismo 1. The polygons, shades and graphis of the cars, mostly their isometric lines are all copied from Gran Turismo Sports. First time you will play this 60$ demo live service, it will pop an unskipable intro of 9 minutes.The live service titled as ''Gran Turismo 7'' forces you to play exactly as they demand. Cause it follows puzzle mechanics. This car and this equipment for this stage. You wont get credits cause they capped it.And the little credits youll earn aint much to get more car cause there are only 13 cars. All the rest is online which in future will get deleted and after few years all which will remain to you will be 4 stages and 13 cars.
    The Gran Turismo 7 has a scripting mechanism in which when you win, the game cheats via wonky controls, faster opponent of AI and sudden rain, cause they dont want you to earn credits.
    The AI follows the same math pattern and its copied from Gran Turismo 3. F1=>g7^F2, which means the AI cheating mechanism effects and sabotaged minorly, your controls during your winning position. Youll notice the AI cars hiting you and you spining loosing valuable seconds. The live service doesnt make you have fun.For all these reasons the live service leasing, gets a 0/10.    … Expand

I have played the game for about a week with my Fanatec Gran Turismo DD Pro racing wheel. However, I have found the duel sense features to also be robust and provide a great deal of feel to driving in this game. I can understand people’s initial frustration before Polyphony Digital released an update in response. As of now though, I think that this game is absolutely phenomenal. The rewards have been increased and now it feels possible to progress without feeling like you have to buy micro transactions. My only complaint is the fact that most of the game is locked behind being always online. However, I understand that this is to maintain the integrity of the leaderboards. Everything about this game is otherwise fantastic. I have not had this much fun in years. The physics of the cars and graphical details alone are simply astounding. The single player provides endless hours of racing exhilaration. The multiplayer will also continue to provide even more hours of fun for the bright future of this game. There is just so much to do and discover in this game. You can tell that the developers have an appreciation for cars and their history.… Expand

    Base game is great (Cars, tracks, graphics, sound, physics, etc.). However, saw articles right off the bat about microtransactions and was initially concerned which nearly stopped me buying. However, reviews were convincing enough about the quality of the game and even though it was grindy it wasn't totally impossible to get some of the cars.

    Now post 1.07 it is very clear the direction this game is going in and it's extremely disheartening. Wish I had waited a few more weeks before pulling the trigger on this because nerfing payouts and increasing the focus on microtransactions is starting to ruin the game for me. The economy needs a complete overhaul. Until this changes think people need to stay away from this game altogether and very disappointed in Sony / PD.

    Update: I have updated my review to a 5/10 based on Polyphony's proposed show of faith. If they actually execute on it I would happily give this game a 10/10 and remove the negative components of my review above. I also encourage all users to do the same. For once, we have gotten a developer to listen to our feedback, so we had best reward them when they do so.

    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    Much improved economic model, players can feel some progress even if they have only a little time to play.

    It wasn't enough just for the game to be expensive, but to have micro transactions to earn more, it's ridiculous! A brutal affront to the consumers of this Sony console. Honestly, I think about selling all my games and my PS5 and not participating in this Sony scam anymore, which aims to make a butcher's profit over consumer cattle. Depressing.

    Nearly perfect game overall. The review bombing happened because initially the in-game payments were very low and it was extremely hard to buy new cars, so it looked like the developer was pushing people to micro transactions.

    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.
