Mar 18, 2022Always on connection even for single player. Outrageously priced cars in some cases, with continual reduction of race payouts, trying to force microtransactions. No real campaign/story mode. What a shame.

Mar 23, 2022GET RID OF THE F*CKING MICROTRANSACTIONS, AND LET US SELL OUR CARS. BY THE GODS
-
Mar 18, 2022Always online? With this last “maintenance on the servers” it have been prove that is a very bad idea for a single player game. I hope they rethink about the pay for the races and stop being greedy with the micro transactions. The game is average good, but this issues make it far worse than other games.

Mar 20, 2022I am really speechless about this game. I bought this game last week and since then it was nothing but disappointment for me. I am saddened to see a great franchise is in this situation. Not recommending it at all. Sorry.

Mar 18, 2022Hello from Russia!
The pre-order of the limited edition was canceled, the game was removed from sale in Russia, but it's even better. The single player game requires a constant internet connection, microtransactions in the game are beyond good and evil, and the latest update has made it even harder to earn credits. I don't recommend this game to anyone with a bit of self-respect. -

Mar 19, 2022Mercenários, diminuiram as recompensas para estimular micro transações. Só querem ser como a EA. Infelizes.

Mar 18, 2022Game is unplayable while offline and the dev team has cut winnings in half post launch to pressure players to spend money on micro transactions.
-
Mar 25, 2022No offline mode????? Why will yo don’t put a offline mode I paid for this and now I can’t play it

Mar 18, 2022GT 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.
-
Mar 17, 2022Online only for a predominantly single-player game...
why?
so that you have no chance at hacking your game to give yourself in game credits. All to protect their absurd GaaS microtransaction business model.
what a gross f2p mobile game approach to a full priced AAA game. -
Mar 21, 2022An unrealistic amount of time required to buy cars has made me stop playing a week after buying.

Mar 17, 2022The worst driving simulation
The real try hard simulation
0 communication and 24h servers update... -
Mar 17, 2022Here to contribute to the review bomb. It WOULD be a great game if it weren't shamelessly ramming microtransactions down your throat at every turn. They need to change a LOT of things involving the game's economy to turn this disaster around.
-
Mar 17, 2022Be aware that this is an online only game. Even if you aren't racing online, you need to contact the GT7 servers to play. If the game's company shuts down the servers, you will no loger be able to play. The game also has microtransactions to buy credits for new cars. This model isn't good for a $70 game. I don't recommend it.
-
Mar 17, 2022Paid $70 for a paperweight. This game is unplayable. Even if the game worked flawlessly as designed it's unplayable. Next to zero offline play. Just straight trash.

Mar 18, 2022I wish I could get a refund from the PS Store. How did PD butcher this release so spectacularly.
-
Mar 19, 2022Kazunori Yamauchi you should be ashamed of yourself.
He literally responded to this outrage with 'We want players to feel a sense of accomplishment'
Bravo for the worlds worst PR technique in the world broski -
Mar 17, 2022So disappointed. Requires ps plus subscription for single player.
Used car dealership sounds like a good idea but it really doesn't work with so little cars on offer. If you want any of the hero 90s jdm cars or any muscle cars you need to wait until Polyphony decides its time to put them on the market. -
Mar 17, 2022Have to keep connecting on-line even if I am playing on Single player mode, however the server was down for over 20hrs and I can do nothing in the game. I understand Microtransaction is optional, but lower the race reward to push Microtransaction is a worst idea to me.
-
Mar 17, 2022It’s really scummy of Polyphony to make changes to the amount of credits being given for races when they also sell in game money. It’s just as scummy that they made the game have to connect online and then the servers are done for most of a day. Polyphony and Sony are going to lose customers and likely sales of future GT games due to their lack of awareness that gamers don’t want either!
-
Mar 17, 2022I have never rated any game before. And today, I created an account just to give a 0 star for Sony's outrageous patch failure. I will request my money to be refunded as the game is not playable for 24 hours as of now, not to mention the micro-transactions and difficulties to gain CR. This is the worst gaming experience ever in my life and SONY needs to pay for its arrogance and greed.
-
Mar 17, 2022A game that doesn't respect you or your time. I wish it lived up to the hype, but the developers gave us shallow content and now are reducing race payouts to force more micro transactions. Here's hoping Amazon will refund me my money.
-

Mar 17, 2022Overall, the game at its core is fun to play but it's plagued with serious issues: including no functionality/progression when the the servers are offline and getting credits to buy cars is very grindy.
-
Mar 17, 2022
-
Mar 17, 2022Between the DRM which makes the game unplayable without an internet connection (single player too), and the in game economy that forces you to buy micro transactions—this is certainly the worst entry of gran turismo, quick loading times and pretty graphics aside.
-
Mar 17, 2022Absolute garbage. Can't even play it. Pay to play. I've been a GT fan for 25 years and own every game. I regret wasting my time and money on this crap. Get bent Kaz and Polyphony. NEVER AGAIN!
-
Mar 18, 2022This game is a money grab due to the fact they realize that they were "generous" for the payout on the races that you grind, they nerfed so you need to micro-transact the game with over inflated cars prices that is almost $40 worth for a ferrari in real money, how unfair is this game for
-
Mar 17, 2022Ruined by microtransactions and dodgy roulette cards. Career mode is non existent. Graphics are amazing, but what a shame.
-
Mar 17, 2022
-
Mar 18, 2022Pay $125 for a game, and after a week they nerf the payouts (if you could play it at all) to force more money out of you to enjoy the game. Can't even sell cars, like that makes sense. Nice work with the server. Can you offer trade ins?

Mar 18, 2022Os caras diminuíram a quantidade de créditos que voce ganha nas corridas pra gente ser obrigados a comprar as microtransacoes. Ridículo

Mar 20, 2022With the 1.07 update, it is no longer the game I bought earlier this month. Many cars are behind a paywall now due to Polyphony's focus on microtransactions. It's a good game, and it just took a spectacularly wrong turn.
-
Mar 21, 2022Game requires always online for single player, and servers are constantly down for maintenance
-

Mar 18, 2022Pros
Graphics = Phenomenon Sounds = We’ll improved Cons
Relatively old car lineups Low prize money for each race means need to win 100times to buy 1 car
During maintenance unavailable to play even offline mode.
(Now 2hours maintenance extend to 30hours but no update from official)
I know it’s hard but wanna claim refund -

Mar 18, 2022always online single player + servers always down + aggressive microtransactions = trash
-

-
Mar 18, 2022The economy in the game is horrible. Recent update just made it worse by nerfing the payouts of most of the races. This game also requires internet even when you want to play singleplayer. So if there is maintenance going on, you can't access anything else other than arcade mode which is awful. Come on PD, what are you doing? This game has so much more potential but you guys are ruining it.
-
Mar 24, 2022Unacceptable in its current state. Absolutely laughable that we cannot access single player without online.
-
Mar 18, 2022Focus on maximising in game micro transactions have killed the game and series.
-
Mar 18, 2022Do not buy this game if you have a job or other responsibilities. You will never get far in this game without spending large sums of real money. This game has been changed into a big cash grab by Sony. Greed is destroying the gaming industry. Microtransactions should be banned by law worldwide.
-
Mar 18, 2022Polyphony Digital are over, the franchise is now dead. Congratulations Sony, hell of an achievement.

Mar 18, 2022- Waited for early Gamereviews to be done
- Introduced ingame currency for $$$ and not being able to sell cars
- Gradually reduced the already meager ingame credit earnings
- Finish it up with ridiculous RNG for new Gamefeatures and always online
If Polyphony were aiming for scummiest developer award in 2022 I think they are on a good course -
Mar 18, 2022Server are now down for a long time and there is no way to play the game. Also Microtransactions are being pushed hard since Version .07 slashed most of the price money.
Really disappointed! -
Mar 18, 2022Created a metacritic account just to post this review. Who the hell thought it was a good idea to not only make the game always online, but then also make it near impossible to grind out for high-end vehicles without forking over ridiculous amounts of real world cash for in-game currency? Screw microtransactions.
Shame on you Polyphony Digital, Gran Turismo 7 isn't a F2P game. -
Mar 18, 2022Just another scam by the video game industry. You really need to play this to understand how bad it is. Words wont describe it.
-
Mar 18, 2022This game spits on its legacy. SONY'S disgusting PS3 ego is back at full force. They have turned GT into a mobile game.
-
Mar 18, 2022Game is broken because of always online. The Servers are always down. Cant play the Game because of this.

-
Mar 18, 2022Same issues everyone else is facing, such a huge disappointment, it is ridiculous to have a new game that needs to be played online, offline for 36 hours, the microtransactions are not great either.

Mar 18, 2022I 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.
-

Mar 18, 2022An utterly broken in-game economy dominated by a greedy micro-transaction model, less content than previous games despite it offering no tangible evolution in gaming experiences, and a terrible server that even stops single player gaming when it crashes. Disgraceful game and an insult to the intelligence of players for the premium price they are charging
-
Mar 18, 2022Game has been unplayable for over a day due to a bad patch. Had family over to play this yesterday, but that never happened. Turns out the latest patch is REDUCING the credit rewards for completing races? These rewards are already low. Changing them and adding MTX after release is bad business practice. Buyer beware.
-
Mar 18, 2022Server 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

Mar 18, 2022The in game economy is geared so hard towards grinding, for the purpose of pushing microtransactions. In a full price game…
-
Mar 18, 2022This could have been a great game, but it was ruined by an online-only single player mode which means that you are at the whim of the developer/publisher as to when you can actually play the game. Add to that diminishing rewards that push you more & more towards microtransactions and this is a disaster of a game. This is the kind of thing you expect from free-to-play games, not $70 AAA titles.
-
Mar 18, 2022Money scam don't buy, pay to win mechanics... Money scam don't buy, pay to win mechanics...
-
Mar 18, 2022Single player game made into online-only **** that encourages microtransactions (in a 80$ title).
-
Mar 18, 2022Great gameplay but the greed is overwhelming. I'm not mad at you Polyphony, just very disappointed in you.

Mar 18, 2022GT7 is plagued by shady business practices. The microtransaction model was hidden from reviewers and the in-game credit rewards were nerfed as well after the reviews came out. Now, the developer has fumbled one of the most criticized aspects, the always online requirement.
-
Mar 18, 2022It’s a disgrace to the GT Series. Online only? **** **** avoid at all costs.

Mar 18, 2022this is **** sony
remove the **** always online and microtransactions
i paid 70$ for this **** i want a refund -
Mar 18, 2022Servers down for more than 24 hours, reduced credit payouts that pushes you to buy credits after you've already spent $70 on the game. Actually ridiculous. Anyone associated with Polyphony should be ashamed. Will be refunding the game if they don't fix the credit payout with the next update.
-
Mar 18, 2022I can accept paid-DLCs if PD really extends the content , but making current cars at such high price then force players to find ways to grind is such a disappointing movement.
-
Mar 18, 2022Company pulled a bait and switch to get people to pay money to unlock cars instead of grinding.

LEVEL (Czech Republic)Jan 30, 2024Gran 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]
-
May 11, 2022Gran 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.
-
May 7, 2022Gran 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.
