There is a reason why Easy Allies is my favorite review source. No other reviews mentioned how good the controller feedback is and very few mention how the emphasis is on perfecting the handling and physics. Thanks for another review that feels like the reviewer actually paid attention to the game and didn't just blow through the game to get a review out quickly.
I knew it would be. I got so used to them with games like the GTARemasters, and DiRT 5, I knew GT7 was going to be a masterpiece. What I didn’t expect is even the motion controls are good! Took a bit to learn, but once you do, man!
8.5 is very fair imo. It's a good game but I think it's holding onto some out of date elements and there are some design decisions that don't make sense to me. One of the main ones for me (and something Blood covered here) is that every race in the campaign uses a rolling start despite grid starts actually being an option in customized races. It means that the AI drivers often have a massive advantage and you're spending half the race just chasing them down. Glad Blood covered that and it's something I hope Polyphony will change next time for the campaign.
Agreed, once the review was finished and the score was about to show, I was fairly certain it was going to be an 8.5. The way the review was structured, written and narrated perfectly captures the score in my opinion. I hope that the game truly does keep getting updated with more content and quality of life improvements because I envisage this to be more of a "live-service" game where despite it being another numbered GT game, I think it will probably be the only one released this generation with more focus on updates and longetivity.
Agree, objectively it is 8.5 due to small errors like that and the possible MTX grindfest, but I still love it to death, the handling and tuning and presentation is absolutely top above all others. This will grow to be a majestic game in the years to come.
Till you have a copy and cannot play it, because servers are down? It is fair because as post on gtplanet showed gt7 is the most grindy gt game? Or because it become even worse with the recent failed update? I watched many reviews praising this game. I played gt5, gt6, still playing gt sport. But experience thought me mtx plus always online? Wait for deep deep sale. Will I play gt7? Sure but when I find a copy of it in the bargain bin.
I can understand having grievances with some of the out dated elements, however I think the attention to detail and how exquisitely executed the gameplay is, more than makes up for any lack of streamlined functionality. Plus, outdated systems or not, I think the pacing & tone of GT7 nicely balances the actual intense driving simulation.

The most concise, precise and accurate review. The prioritization of being correct over chasing arbitrary embargo deadlines is what makes easy allies ,imo, the gold standard for video game reviews.
Hoping you guys do some post-release coverage of this game. It's entire MTX model and always online single player campaign have put some horrific blemishes on what should be a celebration of the franchise. The more outlets that put PD and Sony's feet to the flames on this, the better chance we as purchasers get at getting a game that is worth the $70 price tag we paid.
My only complaint is that thete is no option to qualify before races for better position, like the older games. Without it, the game is Daytona USA. Start at the back and try to finish 1st place. You cant have realistic racing if the ai has to mathmatically be slow enough for you to make up upwards of a 30 second per lap gap from 20th place.
Became more of a Forza guy over the years that GT releases have not been steady. Want to jump into this one but the always online requirement and the micro transactions are definitely a concern.
The MTX in this game isn't even "in your face". It's actually easier to earn cars and credits in this game, it's less of a grind compared to the other mainline GT titles. edit: I'm so dumb that I actually fell for it.
@@exgeeinteractive apparently the online only is to keep people from cheating and to keep the game fair between everyone which I understand. It has me been an issue for me and I loathe “online only” games but it’s not noticeable at all really. Secondly the micro transactions are in the background and not in your face and they’re not necessary at all for unlocking your favorite cars !
@@abcdefg3214 hey now… forza Motorsport is pretty great and feels a little bit like gran turismo. Especially Motorsport 4 and 6! Forza is a great franchise but yeah it’s definitely more arcade than Gran turismo. GT is the perfect blend of arcade and sim while leaving very heavily into the simulator side of things.
I’ve played pretty much everything, sim wise, on console & PC. GT7 far exceeded my expectations. It’s great how PD have nailed the fundamentals like physics, weather, customisation etc. Now they can concentrate on the Sophy AI update and new content. Feels like GT is back and this will be one of the best selling instalments.
I hope the rating also covers the ALWAYS ONLINE DRM where if they turn off servers you won't play anything, the microtransactions that are horrendous and also the drastically reduced rewards since yesterday.
@@EasyAllies It covered everything in a manner i found appropriate, thank you for not dismissing the microtransactions like other "reviews" do. Great content like always !
Excellent review Bloodworth! In my own appraisal of the game I was a little torn between the breathtaking excellence of the core game and presentation against the somewhat scummy microtransaction system and a few other minor gripes. I think you clearly and precisely communicated both points.
FINALLY someone on CZcams showing video of the game running at 60fps and non sub 480p resolution. I swear half of these GT7 comparison videos are capturing at the worst possible frames and resolution.
After skipping the past couple GT games, it's great to be back! I'm not a huge car guy, but I love the grounded and elegant approach of Gran Turismo over some more arcade style racers. One the other hand, I am definitely not the type to play a full on racing sim. I think GT7 does a good job of balancing the two styles and finds a happy medium.
Which both seems to get worse recently. This is why I decided to wait. And I will wait some more before buying it. In the mean time I can play gt sport (or other racing games I have).
This is one of my favorite racing games of all time. My only complaint is the campaign races are all rolling starts where you begin 30 seconds behind the leader. The actual driving and physics are a noticeable step up and the cars have their own feel
I've been having sooo much fun with this game. I have a super ticked out Camaro that I call the Batmobile lol. Anyone remotely interested should pick it up.
This game will have years worth of support and updates with new tracks, cars and more. So far I've rolled credits on the game and I have had a blast. This game isn't perfect but for the type of racing game that it is, there are hardly any other racers that match what it does best. This game is a lover letter to car culture.
I don't recommend paying full price for this game, period. I bought the game day one and I was really having a blast until I saw how much this game is built around microtransactions, they pretty much nerfed all cash prizes in order to push you to spend real money to buy credits in order to buy cars. Even at the beginning of your journey the game replaces prizes like credits and cars for "invitations" to spend millions of credits on a Lamborghini or Bugatti. It's offensive that they consider an invitation to spend millions and millions that you won't have so early in the game as a REWARD instead of things that would help you like new cars or credits. Below is a simple comparison between the prize for the same event between GT Sport and GT7: CUSTOM RACE: 24 hours duration / 20 cars / Gr.1 / Hard difficulty GT7 PRIZE POOL: 248,248 Cr. GT SPORT PRIZE POOL: 7,980,000 Cr.
I'm not having the same experience at all. I have never felt the need to spend anything on micro transactions. I haven't finished the game yet, but I have over 60 cars in my garage now and was able to win every race so far with the cars I was given as rewards. I occasionally spend some credits on tuning, but I'm still sitting at around 1,5 million. So I could buy extra cars if I wanted, but the fun for me comes from winning the races with what I have. Just buying a Bugatti at the start of the game and blasting past every opposition does not sound fun to me. If I have 1 critique of the game, I would say I find it a bit too easy. So receiving even more credits would actually make it worse in my opinion.
If you have patience it’s no problem at all. The game does force you to drive with lesser cars but after a while the money comes easy. After 9 hours in, I’ve been rewarded great cars and loads of money. I can easily get 100k for a clean race on some 10 minute races. It kind of makes you appreciate the cars you have and to be able to get them all is a feat reserved for the people that invest the most time. I wonder, if there was no option to buy credits, if this would even be a concern. Even for newcomers I would say grind through the game, it just makes you a better driver. It’s sort of forces you to strategize how to beat certain races with car purchases / tuning etc. That being said, yes GT sport handed out more money. So maybe developers will change the reward system a bit if there are a lot of complaints.
@@maxminy5634 Let's also not forget that in GT Sport you only use Credits to buy cars but in GT7 you also have to spend a lot of money to improve and tune your cars to keep progressing, even for online races, thanks to the odd choice of making Sport mode based on tunning instead of the tried and true BoP from GTS. When microtransactions are involved from the get-go, it's hard to believe that they will not affect the game design in some aspect, even against the developer's will.
@@FebreGundam I do agree with that, but it just takes more time. Big boys have already grinded and in sport mode within 2 weeks of launch, so nothing is impossible. There should be an option for BOP though.
@@maxminy5634 Sure, I think the game is really good, but it's hard to recommend it now at full price when there's so many other great games to play. I wanted to use GT7 as a "chill out, relax and enjoy a few races a day" kind of game, but it wasn't that for me so I stopped playing it to focus on Forbidden West and I'll probably come back to it later on, hopefully with some much needed tweaks from PD
If there is one thing that sets Gran Turismo apart from all other worthwhile series, it's that it is straight up car porn. It's presentation, attention to detail, and accessibility is like a church that seeks new converts to car culture.
Going to leave my very honest review of this game (Purely from the off-line perspective, I haven't touched Multiplayer yet), coming from someone new to the GT world. I'm a filthy controller player too, as I don't have the commitment to bother buying a wheel, when I play on a 75 inch screen in my theatre. It would look straight up ridiculous. So grab a coffee if you're going to read the whole post 😂 It's a fantastic looking game, judging from comparisons to previous instalments in terms of vehicle detail; visual customisation; dynamic weather, how the cars feel individually and the very brutal changes of road surface when the rain starts coming down. Car tuning is also brilliant, and does an incredible job of subtly changing a car's feel, whether it be a tweak to the camber or toe angles etc. It's hard for racing games to make you actually FEEL like you're going fast, but I think this game does a pretty good job of that overall once you start flying past the 200mph mark. It still maintains great detail of other cars as you pass them, and they don't look like they're simply floating on the surface of the road, and are very much moving with the indentations of the track in terms of suspension and body roll. There's a great choice of tracks once you unlock them, and the options of choosing weather throughout a custom race is a neat little addition. The racing lines are easy enough to follow without any aids, and it's a nice challenge working out the different braking distances for each car on each track. Car sounds are fantastic, and it's great that they change notes with different modifications. The difference in sound when you transition between camera positions is excellent (Especially noting the cockpit view in this instance). The Licencing and Mission challenges were definitely a rough transition for someone who has never played around with GT titles except for GT1 many many years ago, but we're extremely rewarding once you got all golds. The cars I earned in these two categories aided me massively for the actual "Story", and set me up nicely for buying a decent car prior to starting the next menu. I'm trying not to make this too long-winded, but I'll try to keep the negatives down within reason. 1. For a game that calls itself "The Real Driving Simulator", the fact there is absolutely no punishment anywhere for breaching course lines to take shortcuts, is baffling to me. As long as you are back on track in five seconds, you don't get penalised, but that's plenty of time for someone to fly across the chicanes in Belgium or Le Mans, and shave 5/10 seconds off their time. 2. No damage model really confused and disappointed me. I'm aware that GT isn't a torch bearer for damage models, but this would have been an excellent opportunity to showcase next-gen capabilities to render real damage to cars, and result in a driver being unable to complete a race. Hitting a barrier or other driver at 250mph with absolutely no repercussions whatsoever, is a real shame. Again, there's no penalty for ramming other drivers in the story mode, which seems insane when you're racing in Championship events against Group B or C race cars. Even to have some sort of SIMULATED damage where if you hit a barrier or driver too hard, you damage your suspension, brakes etc that mean you have to pit for longer to get them fixed. 3. Ridiculous trophies. What in the hell is the point of the game forcing you to buy ten of the exact same car, besides wasting 2/400k of your money? (Depending what you buy of course). 4. Not being able to sell cars that you buy. (See Point 3 for a prime example of this). You now have ten useless cars in your garage that you can't get rid of, and now take up room while you scroll for a car you want. 5. Legendary Cars. Those that want the trophy for the three cars destined to win 24h races are going to have to either put hundreds of hours grinding the same Rally levels (You know the ones) for a measly 95k, when the Jag XJ13 costs you a fat 12 Million alone. That's $180AUD just for one car, if you wanted to fast track it with micro transactions. 6. Race winnings. It's crazy to think that the highest paying races are the two rally stages, which pay out a Max of 95k per clean race, when you have the Le Mans 24 Minute challenge, or the 30 minute race on Tsukoba Circuit that pay you a fat 10k (From memory). If you're doing a race that's 10 laps or more (Excluding Daytona Oval), you should surely be getting 100k minimum payouts, without the clean bonus. I think they've really dropped the ball on how the credits are issued for winning races. 7. After completing every single menu, Licence and Mission on Gold, I earned three cars from roulette tickets (Think it was well over 40 tickets from memory), and one 100k credit pile. Not one single part. The other 95% were 10k coin payouts at best, which is 1/3 of the cost of a set of racing softs, for fuck's sake. 7. I'm speaking purely from an Australian perspective here, but it would have been good to see at least one native car to earn that is home to Bathurst Racetrack (Ie, the V8 Supercars). I'm sure there are other native cars to other nations that would have been welcome from other members of the world too. Probably bored you all to death with my War and Peace monologue, but I think there are definitely some points they could improve on for future updates (Credit payouts for one), that would improve the game drastically. I don't hate the game, but I don't love it after all the negative stuff I've found. There are definitely other good and bad points, but I've TRIED to tone it down as much as possible. It's a great game that's left a bad after taste. I'd say a 7/10 at best, at this stage. Since I've completed all the Missions / World Map / Circuit Experiences / Licence challenges on Gold, I can't see myself coming back to it until they bring some updates out.
After specifically saying I listened to the "No review yet Brad" video, and would not have clicked on the GT7 review, I have now watched the GT7 review in it's entirety out of guilt Review Copy Provided By Playstation!
You don't need to spend any money on the microtransactions, once you get decent at the game it's easy to make good cash and buy whatever you want without having to spend any money.
@@zodiac909 I'd expect Blood to mention that if it was that easy, but he specifically says the opposite. What do you say to that? Is Blood wrong/has not played enough?
@@Ayoul Becomes a question of time you have, more or less. You have more time to play? Collect cars faster than some Broski with only a couple hours a week. This goes for nearly every game with progression.
@@Downsider24 Except Blood doesn't mention this in every review right? It's also not even close to every game that gates its content behind a daily shop.
Excellent review Blood. Really comprehensive. The only racing game I’ll play is Mario Kart but I love how Gran Turismo just oozes class and a love for cars
Ever since I first experienced the Duel Sense "feedback" on the triggers and controller, I instantly saw how amazing a racing game would fare on the PS5. Glad to hear they put it to good use! Also, seeing little things like the reflection of your dash in the windshield are nice touches. It's a little disappointing to see the "push" towards purchasing Micro's however. Hopefully that doesn't become too much of an issue. Looking forward to playing and great review as always!
For me, the microtransactions are already a hugh issue and I decided to stop playing it until PD does something to address this. I made a comment with more details about this issue above (or below, it's up to YT).
The game is solid 9/10 for me, The only things that dosen’t make it to 10/10, is 1 there needs to be more ways to earn roulettes than daily workout after you done the cafe, or make it possible with 3 milestones in daily workout 42 km, 150 km, 500 km etc. 2 make it possible to sell cars for 25% of value, 3 we need much more world circuit events witch are confirmed for updates, 4 more cars and tracks is still a bit lacking but not as much needed as events, of we reach 600 cars and 40 track locations after 3 years and all of those stuff fixad in my other 3 points, it will be 10/10 for me, its still an awesome racing game, in my opinion the best since gt4
Honestly this game is near perfection but the ONLY THING I HATE is the rate of credits that you earn. I understand that you earn it slow because they want this game to last a long time BUT then take away the microtransaction aspect then.
Buying a game that needs to be online and dies with the server after putting in hours and cash, this is armed robbery . No thanks. Im into timeless classics that survive the online part. This feels like a shakedown. Seems ill be playing drive club ♾
I am not for always-online DRM, but I would hardly call it an armed robbery. Perhaps you hold onto your games and play them after a few years, I cannot for the life of me turn an old game on if a newer version exists. I like to move along with the development in the industry, so perhaps it does not affect me as badly.
You should have waited with the review and play this game a few more days. To see what sh!t show we have right now. I might add well deserved by PD/Sony
I’ll buy it with all the dlc for 25 bucks down the road. Too expensive for what it is. Obtuse old cluttered hub, obtuse old camera, no launch grid, etc. it’s the old gt structure with new graphics. A good game but too many mistakes carried over and over for decades now. I’d only spend my money if it’s for 25 bucks. Good luck and enjoy if you are paying full price though
I waited for gt sport got it last year for 5eur, I have a nice time still playing it. GT7 turn into a sh!t show right now. Failed patch, servers are down, the most grindy game in the series plus mtx. Nope not worth my money I have many other games to play including racing games. As for gt sport I’m fully aware they will pull the plug on this one which means the disc becomes a beer coaster, but with the number of hours I played so far and the price I paid I can live with it. So I will get gt7 when it is in a bargain bin.
@@Dieg0frc sometimes you want to play offline, or there's a power outage, or it's 5 years later and the servers are down. The Wii U servers and PS3 servers are going down, but I can still play MK8 Grand Prix and GT5 Career with no internet.
@@Dieg0frc my ultra wide monitor was $200 and my 4k TV was $350, most people are not spending close to two grand on a monitor and TV. Also you're just a dickhead if you spend $300 on a pair of headphones and you don't work in music lol
I have yet to play this game, but grinding for cars/credits has always been a thing. I remember having to do multi-hour endurance races for a chance to unlock certain cars, and back then microtransactions and buying cars with real money just wasn't an option. As long as the grind hasn't been increased to make the microtransaction option more appealing, I think it's perfectly fine to offer it to those who would consider it.
@Playerz714 but what I'm saying is that grind was present prior to microtransactions being a thing. If that level of grind has increased compared to prior games, then yeah I get the criticism
Great review! My score after 2 weeks is 9.5, but I’m a diehard GT fan. I biggest gripe is that the car roster doesn’t include more recent cars. For example, the Audi R8!
I grew up playing Gran Turismo... And one day I was able drive a Lambo and a Ferrari on a track in real life, and when I tell you it was the same EXACT thing... I mean it... IT WAS THE SAME EXACT THING. So much so, that it put me right back at Leguna Seca (Turismo course)... And when I got out the cars, I was like, "Maaaan!!! These cars ain't sh*t!!! I've driven stuff WAAAAY faster than that!!!!" 😄
Gran Turismo: "You can't play unless you're online, otherwise people might cheat and get super good cars and stuff and take them online." Also Gran Turismo: "Pay us enough money and you can hop online with a fully tricked out F1 car right away." (Jokes aside this looks awesome, but let's patch the stupid scammy stuff out sooner rather than later, plz, Polyphony)
I'm glad some major reviewers are honest and brave enough to give this a score lower than a 9 as opposed to huge exclusives seeming to be guaranteed a 9 or above. The game economy (no ability to sell or auction cars, limited-time cars, and microtransactions) and always-online requirement are huge flaws. I also don't like the complete lack of damage, very limited split-screen vehicle selection, last-place starts, or twitchy steering (especially countersteering, at least on the PS4 controller with all assists off). IMO, Forza has been a better series than GT since at least Forza Motorsport 2 (with the exception of FM5), and FM7 is better than GT7 in almost every way.
Will buy once I get the Gran Turismo DD wheel. It seems Sony's direction with this generation of studio acquisitions is also affecting their existing franchises like GT, in that live service is the priority. Hence the always-online, daily car rotations, microtransactions.
Great review and a great looking game. I play a lot of GT Sport but in a limited way. I'm just time trialling and arcade racing in my Toyota 2000GT. GT7 expands on Sport in many areas but to be honest the differences seem small for my usage and the cost plus manipulative microtransactions really put me off.
Oh. Please don't. The games gone to shit after launch, it was unplayable for 30 hours and you cant earn credits in the game anymore without dedicating your life into it please look up some fresh information on the game instead, and hold back on the purchase, for now at least. That way you will not be disappointed.
32 hours in loving the game love the progression through the game with the cafe menus. Got plenty of cars and over 2 million Cr not felt the need to spend real money.
Rolling starts in last place every time sounds like a huge oversight and major annoyance. I don't want chase mode every single race. Cars are also very expensive, paint jobs expensive, limited credits for victories. I cannot believe these greed monsters went with microtransactions.
great review. I'm having a great time with GT7. The driving is so rewarding, definitely several cuts above previous GT games in realism and driver engagement. I enjoyed the campaign, although was sad to see it end in a short few days of playing, as well as some of the variety issues you mentioned.
The 8.5 seems fair, i personally think i would score it a 7.5 based on all the negatives that Blood mentioned in this review. The always Online is a HUGE deal, it means the game has a ticking time bomb, there will be a time were you WILL NOT be able to play this game single player anymore. Also, i find the split screen implementation simply lackluster.
I’ve missed out on the past couple of GT games and was hoping to try this one out. Sadly with those manipulative micro transactions with fomo pushing you to spend I think I’m going to sit this one out too. 😓
3:44 I saw "Chapter 1: Japanese Compact Cars" and immediately rolled my eyes. I honestly do NOT understand this obsession GT has with forcing people to drive the absolute garbage vehicles first. GT5 did it with those awful Kei cars you were stuck with to begin with, and that awful challenge with the VW bus. I get that Kei cars are often a first car in Japan because they're cheap but why not at least start with like Honda Civic tier small cars at least? People actually drive those for sport around the world. I'd rather start with the damn lawn mowers from TOCA3 than a selection of awful slow econoboxes I couldn't give a rat's about as soon as I get anything approaching a reasonable vehicle.
The whole online always, randomised shops, and the starting last element puts me off, the races should have qualifying option or straight to race (then start last). Sounds like PD are just being greedy and wanting to move entirely away from the single player traditional GT that the real fans love in favour of this gen Z fan boy social media/b list celeb/movie racer BS.
I do understand it’s hard for reviewers to grasp the whole scope of a game’s progression when the company is actively trying to deceive and manipulate the media. But if you still believe reviews are about helping consumers make informed decisions, please do give this review a needed update.
I won all the races, most gold's in missions/tests and while there are some amazing 10/10 aspects of gt7... Overall this game is not very good. People saying otherwise are blinded by the GT name or they just aren't being honest with themselves.
There is a reason why Easy Allies is my favorite review source.

Hoping you guys do some post-release coverage of this game. It's entire MTX model and always online single player campaign have put some horrific blemishes on what should be a celebration of the franchise.

Big shout out to mister Don Casanova for this monster edit. Bravo L&R!
My only complaint is that thete is no option to qualify before races for better position, like the older games. Without it, the game is Daytona USA. Start at the back and try to finish 1st place. You cant have realistic racing if the ai has to mathmatically be slow enough for you to make up upwards of a 30 second per lap gap from 20th place.
Lack of training, qualifications is a big letdown.
Especially that many other games have it.
Became more of a Forza guy over the years that GT releases have not been steady. Want to jump into this one but the always online requirement and the micro transactions are definitely a concern.
The MTX in this game isn't even "in your face". It's actually easier to earn cars and credits in this game, it's less of a grind compared to the other mainline GT titles.
edit: I'm so dumb that I actually fell for it.
@@exgeeinteractive fell for what ?
@@exgeeinteractive apparently the online only is to keep people from cheating and to keep the game fair between everyone which I understand. It has me been an issue for me and I loathe “online only” games but it’s not noticeable at all really. Secondly the micro transactions are in the background and not in your face and they’re not necessary at all for unlocking your favorite cars !
Iv you love forza try the need for speed games not much difference ... gran turismo is a masterpiece
@@abcdefg3214 hey now… forza Motorsport is pretty great and feels a little bit like gran turismo. Especially Motorsport 4 and 6! Forza is a great franchise but yeah it’s definitely more arcade than Gran turismo. GT is the perfect blend of arcade and sim while leaving very heavily into the simulator side of things.
I’ve played pretty much everything, sim wise, on console & PC. GT7 far exceeded my expectations. It’s great how PD have nailed the fundamentals like physics, weather, customisation etc.
Now they can concentrate on the Sophy AI update and new content. Feels like GT is back and this will be one of the best selling instalments.
That's a great point. Having nailed the fundamentals, Polyphony can focus on new features and content unlike what happened with GT Sport
This game is not a sim, don’t fool yourself, close but no cigar
Thank you for calling out both the microtransactions and the always-online DRM, Blood
Great review blood! I have a complete understanding of what I will be getting into when I buy GT7!
I hope the rating also covers the ALWAYS ONLINE DRM where if they turn off servers you won't play anything, the microtransactions that are horrendous and also the drastically reduced rewards since yesterday.
Well, I can't predict the future, but the other stuff is in there. Watch the review. -Bloodworth
@@EasyAllies It covered everything in a manner i found appropriate, thank you for not dismissing the microtransactions like other "reviews" do. Great content like always !
Excellent review Bloodworth! In my own appraisal of the game I was a little torn between the breathtaking excellence of the core game and presentation against the somewhat scummy microtransaction system and a few other minor gripes. I think you clearly and precisely communicated both points.
FINALLY someone on CZcams showing video of the game running at 60fps and non sub 480p resolution.
I swear half of these GT7 comparison videos are capturing at the worst possible frames and resolution.
6:16 i just screamed at my monitor, oh my god
After skipping the past couple GT games, it's great to be back! I'm not a huge car guy, but I love the grounded and elegant approach of Gran Turismo over some more arcade style racers. One the other hand, I am definitely not the type to play a full on racing sim. I think GT7 does a good job of balancing the two styles and finds a happy medium.
Great review. Captured my feelings closely; my main sticking points are also the microtransactions and always online aspects.
Which both seems to get worse recently.
This is why I decided to wait. And I will wait some more before buying it.
In the mean time I can play gt sport (or other racing games I have).
From GT to day 1 Patreon. I was on the fence review sold me. Top notch as always
after all these years and they still haven't put in damage models...
This is one of my favorite racing games of all time. My only complaint is the campaign races are all rolling starts where you begin 30 seconds behind the leader. The actual driving and physics are a noticeable step up and the cars have their own feel
I've been having sooo much fun with this game. I have a super ticked out Camaro that I call the Batmobile lol. Anyone remotely interested should pick it up.
Bet the microtransactions and always online docked it that 0.5 it needed to clear 9.
If I read the screenshots correctly, 2million credits is $20 and there was a car that cost $12million. That's... a lot.
This game will have years worth of support and updates with new tracks, cars and more. So far I've rolled credits on the game and I have had a blast. This game isn't perfect but for the type of racing game that it is, there are hardly any other racers that match what it does best. This game is a lover letter to car culture.
Best GT7 Review to date!
I don't recommend paying full price for this game, period.
I bought the game day one and I was really having a blast until I saw how much this game is built around microtransactions, they pretty much nerfed all cash prizes in order to push you to spend real money to buy credits in order to buy cars. Even at the beginning of your journey the game replaces prizes like credits and cars for "invitations" to spend millions of credits on a Lamborghini or Bugatti. It's offensive that they consider an invitation to spend millions and millions that you won't have so early in the game as a REWARD instead of things that would help you like new cars or credits. Below is a simple comparison between the prize for the same event between GT Sport and GT7:
CUSTOM RACE: 24 hours duration / 20 cars / Gr.1 / Hard difficulty
GT7 PRIZE POOL: 248,248 Cr.
GT SPORT PRIZE POOL: 7,980,000 Cr.
I'm not having the same experience at all. I have never felt the need to spend anything on micro transactions. I haven't finished the game yet, but I have over 60 cars in my garage now and was able to win every race so far with the cars I was given as rewards. I occasionally spend some credits on tuning, but I'm still sitting at around 1,5 million. So I could buy extra cars if I wanted, but the fun for me comes from winning the races with what I have. Just buying a Bugatti at the start of the game and blasting past every opposition does not sound fun to me. If I have 1 critique of the game, I would say I find it a bit too easy. So receiving even more credits would actually make it worse in my opinion.
If you have patience it’s no problem at all. The game does force you to drive with lesser cars but after a while the money comes easy. After 9 hours in, I’ve been rewarded great cars and loads of money. I can easily get 100k for a clean race on some 10 minute races. It kind of makes you appreciate the cars you have and to be able to get them all is a feat reserved for the people that invest the most time. I wonder, if there was no option to buy credits, if this would even be a concern. Even for newcomers I would say grind through the game, it just makes you a better driver. It’s sort of forces you to strategize how to beat certain races with car purchases / tuning etc. That being said, yes GT sport handed out more money. So maybe developers will change the reward system a bit if there are a lot of complaints.
@@maxminy5634 Let's also not forget that in GT Sport you only use Credits to buy cars but in GT7 you also have to spend a lot of money to improve and tune your cars to keep progressing, even for online races, thanks to the odd choice of making Sport mode based on tunning instead of the tried and true BoP from GTS. When microtransactions are involved from the get-go, it's hard to believe that they will not affect the game design in some aspect, even against the developer's will.
@@FebreGundam I do agree with that, but it just takes more time. Big boys have already grinded and in sport mode within 2 weeks of launch, so nothing is impossible. There should be an option for BOP though.
@@maxminy5634 Sure, I think the game is really good, but it's hard to recommend it now at full price when there's so many other great games to play. I wanted to use GT7 as a "chill out, relax and enjoy a few races a day" kind of game, but it wasn't that for me so I stopped playing it to focus on Forbidden West and I'll probably come back to it later on, hopefully with some much needed tweaks from PD
If there is one thing that sets Gran Turismo apart from all other worthwhile series, it's that it is straight up car porn. It's presentation, attention to detail, and accessibility is like a church that seeks new converts to car culture.
Absolutely the best real driving simulation game ever. I love it.
What a beautifully written, produced, and narrated review. Damn these guys are good.
Going to leave my very honest review of this game (Purely from the off-line perspective, I haven't touched Multiplayer yet), coming from someone new to the GT world.
I'm a filthy controller player too, as I don't have the commitment to bother buying a wheel, when I play on a 75 inch screen in my theatre. It would look straight up ridiculous. So grab a coffee if you're going to read the whole post 😂
It's a fantastic looking game, judging from comparisons to previous instalments in terms of vehicle detail; visual customisation; dynamic weather, how the cars feel individually and the very brutal changes of road surface when the rain starts coming down. Car tuning is also brilliant, and does an incredible job of subtly changing a car's feel, whether it be a tweak to the camber or toe angles etc.
It's hard for racing games to make you actually FEEL like you're going fast, but I think this game does a pretty good job of that overall once you start flying past the 200mph mark. It still maintains great detail of other cars as you pass them, and they don't look like they're simply floating on the surface of the road, and are very much moving with the indentations of the track in terms of suspension and body roll.
There's a great choice of tracks once you unlock them, and the options of choosing weather throughout a custom race is a neat little addition. The racing lines are easy enough to follow without any aids, and it's a nice challenge working out the different braking distances for each car on each track.
Car sounds are fantastic, and it's great that they change notes with different modifications. The difference in sound when you transition between camera positions is excellent (Especially noting the cockpit view in this instance).
The Licencing and Mission challenges were definitely a rough transition for someone who has never played around with GT titles except for GT1 many many years ago, but we're extremely rewarding once you got all golds. The cars I earned in these two categories aided me massively for the actual "Story", and set me up nicely for buying a decent car prior to starting the next menu.
I'm trying not to make this too long-winded, but I'll try to keep the negatives down within reason.
1. For a game that calls itself "The Real Driving Simulator", the fact there is absolutely no punishment anywhere for breaching course lines to take shortcuts, is baffling to me. As long as you are back on track in five seconds, you don't get penalised, but that's plenty of time for someone to fly across the chicanes in Belgium or Le Mans, and shave 5/10 seconds off their time.
2. No damage model really confused and disappointed me. I'm aware that GT isn't a torch bearer for damage models, but this would have been an excellent opportunity to showcase next-gen capabilities to render real damage to cars, and result in a driver being unable to complete a race. Hitting a barrier or other driver at 250mph with absolutely no repercussions whatsoever, is a real shame. Again, there's no penalty for ramming other drivers in the story mode, which seems insane when you're racing in Championship events against Group B or C race cars. Even to have some sort of SIMULATED damage where if you hit a barrier or driver too hard, you damage your suspension, brakes etc that mean you have to pit for longer to get them fixed.
3. Ridiculous trophies. What in the hell is the point of the game forcing you to buy ten of the exact same car, besides wasting 2/400k of your money? (Depending what you buy of course).
4. Not being able to sell cars that you buy. (See Point 3 for a prime example of this). You now have ten useless cars in your garage that you can't get rid of, and now take up room while you scroll for a car you want.
5. Legendary Cars. Those that want the trophy for the three cars destined to win 24h races are going to have to either put hundreds of hours grinding the same Rally levels (You know the ones) for a measly 95k, when the Jag XJ13 costs you a fat 12 Million alone. That's $180AUD just for one car, if you wanted to fast track it with micro transactions.
6. Race winnings. It's crazy to think that the highest paying races are the two rally stages, which pay out a Max of 95k per clean race, when you have the Le Mans 24 Minute challenge, or the 30 minute race on Tsukoba Circuit that pay you a fat 10k (From memory). If you're doing a race that's 10 laps or more (Excluding Daytona Oval), you should surely be getting 100k minimum payouts, without the clean bonus. I think they've really dropped the ball on how the credits are issued for winning races.
7. After completing every single menu, Licence and Mission on Gold, I earned three cars from roulette tickets (Think it was well over 40 tickets from memory), and one 100k credit pile. Not one single part. The other 95% were 10k coin payouts at best, which is 1/3 of the cost of a set of racing softs, for fuck's sake.
7. I'm speaking purely from an Australian perspective here, but it would have been good to see at least one native car to earn that is home to Bathurst Racetrack (Ie, the V8 Supercars). I'm sure there are other native cars to other nations that would have been welcome from other members of the world too.
Probably bored you all to death with my War and Peace monologue, but I think there are definitely some points they could improve on for future updates (Credit payouts for one), that would improve the game drastically.
I don't hate the game, but I don't love it after all the negative stuff I've found. There are definitely other good and bad points, but I've TRIED to tone it down as much as possible. It's a great game that's left a bad after taste. I'd say a 7/10 at best, at this stage. Since I've completed all the Missions / World Map / Circuit Experiences / Licence challenges on Gold, I can't see myself coming back to it until they bring some updates out.
Agreed, i also noticed alot and i mean alot of texture popping on all maps. Not something id expect from a ps5 game.
After specifically saying I listened to the "No review yet Brad" video, and would not have clicked on the GT7 review, I have now watched the GT7 review in it's entirety out of guilt
Review Copy Provided By Playstation!
Could you make an update on this review ?
Sigh I want to buy this game but the micro-transactions and unlocking cars sounds terrible. As always an excellent review 👌
You don't need to spend any money on the microtransactions, once you get decent at the game it's easy to make good cash and buy whatever you want without having to spend any money.
@@zodiac909 I'd expect Blood to mention that if it was that easy, but he specifically says the opposite. What do you say to that? Is Blood wrong/has not played enough?
@@Ayoul Becomes a question of time you have, more or less. You have more time to play? Collect cars faster than some Broski with only a couple hours a week. This goes for nearly every game with progression.
@@Ayoul playing GT4 now, it's by far worse grindfest than GT7. MTX is not problem.
@@Downsider24 Except Blood doesn't mention this in every review right? It's also not even close to every game that gates its content behind a daily shop.
Excellent review Blood. Really comprehensive. The only racing game I’ll play is Mario Kart but I love how Gran Turismo just oozes class and a love for cars
8:48 well this aged poorly
Ever since I first experienced the Duel Sense "feedback" on the triggers and controller, I instantly saw how amazing a racing game would fare on the PS5. Glad to hear they put it to good use! Also, seeing little things like the reflection of your dash in the windshield are nice touches. It's a little disappointing to see the "push" towards purchasing Micro's however. Hopefully that doesn't become too much of an issue. Looking forward to playing and great review as always!
For me, the microtransactions are already a hugh issue and I decided to stop playing it until PD does something to address this. I made a comment with more details about this issue above (or below, it's up to YT).
The game is solid 9/10 for me,
The only things that dosen’t make it to 10/10, is
1 there needs to be more ways to earn roulettes than daily workout after you done the cafe, or make it possible with 3 milestones in daily workout 42 km, 150 km, 500 km etc.
2 make it possible to sell cars for 25% of value,
3 we need much more world circuit events witch are confirmed for updates,
4 more cars and tracks is still a bit lacking but not as much needed as events, of we reach 600 cars and 40 track locations after 3 years and all of those stuff fixad in my other 3 points, it will be 10/10 for me, its still an awesome racing game, in my opinion the best since gt4
Honestly this game is near perfection but the ONLY THING I HATE is the rate of credits that you earn. I understand that you earn it slow because they want this game to last a long time BUT then take away the microtransaction aspect then.
6:39 My brain automatically thought this clip was from a movie not a game lol
This is the review that I have been waiting for - thank you kindly Blood.
Holy fuck you used to do the gametrailers reviews. That voice is unmistakable.
Fair review
Glad the reviewer called out the bullshit online requirement and the shop rotation made to encourage microtransactions
Buying a game that needs to be online and dies with the server after putting in hours and cash, this is armed robbery . No thanks. Im into timeless classics that survive the online part. This feels like a shakedown. Seems ill be playing drive club ♾
I am not for always-online DRM, but I would hardly call it an armed robbery. Perhaps you hold onto your games and play them after a few years, I cannot for the life of me turn an old game on if a newer version exists. I like to move along with the development in the industry, so perhaps it does not affect me as badly.
You should have waited with the review and play this game a few more days. To see what sh!t show we have right now.
I might add well deserved by PD/Sony
$70 and microtransactions just rubs me the wrong way. Always online. Etc
Props to Blood for his thorough reviews!
I’ll buy it with all the dlc for 25 bucks down the road. Too expensive for what it is. Obtuse old cluttered hub, obtuse old camera, no launch grid, etc. it’s the old gt structure with new graphics. A good game but too many mistakes carried over and over for decades now. I’d only spend my money if it’s for 25 bucks. Good luck and enjoy if you are paying full price though
I waited for gt sport got it last year for 5eur, I have a nice time still playing it.
GT7 turn into a sh!t show right now. Failed patch, servers are down, the most grindy game in the series plus mtx.
Nope not worth my money I have many other games to play including racing games.
As for gt sport I’m fully aware they will pull the plug on this one which means the disc becomes a beer coaster, but with the number of hours I played so far and the price I paid I can live with it.
So I will get gt7 when it is in a bargain bin.
Dang, part of what killed Driveclub was it's lack of offline viability, it's a shame GT7 has a similar shortcoming
And most reviewers don't bring this up as a negative at all!
PS5 $500 , Monitor $400 or TV $1200 , Headphones $100 - $300 and you can't pay for internet? Lol
@@Dieg0frc sometimes you want to play offline, or there's a power outage, or it's 5 years later and the servers are down. The Wii U servers and PS3 servers are going down, but I can still play MK8 Grand Prix and GT5 Career with no internet.
@@Dieg0frc my ultra wide monitor was $200 and my 4k TV was $350, most people are not spending close to two grand on a monitor and TV. Also you're just a dickhead if you spend $300 on a pair of headphones and you don't work in music lol
Driveclub is amazing. I still play it
I have yet to play this game, but grinding for cars/credits has always been a thing. I remember having to do multi-hour endurance races for a chance to unlock certain cars, and back then microtransactions and buying cars with real money just wasn't an option. As long as the grind hasn't been increased to make the microtransaction option more appealing, I think it's perfectly fine to offer it to those who would consider it.
Ehhh they artificially make the game have plenty of grind to sell cars which I have never understood how people defend it in paid titles
@Playerz714 but what I'm saying is that grind was present prior to microtransactions being a thing. If that level of grind has increased compared to prior games, then yeah I get the criticism
Great review! My score after 2 weeks is 9.5, but I’m a diehard GT fan. I biggest gripe is that the car roster doesn’t include more recent cars. For example, the Audi R8!
“We wouldn’t want people to cheat so we gotta keep you always online BUT if you want to spend real money on super cars BY ALL MEANS!”
All the driving without the crazy new gas prices!
As soon as I saw that top up thing in the gameplay previews a month or so ago I knew it was gonna be a problem
amazing review blood
"Kept you waiting, huh?" - Daniel Bloodworth 2022
Great review, convinced me to wait it out until the car rarity, micro transactions and always online issues have been sorted, rest sounds pretty good
Im thinking about getting this game just for psvr2 is it cool ive heard good and bad
I grew up playing Gran Turismo... And one day I was able drive a Lambo and a Ferrari on a track in real life, and when I tell you it was the same EXACT thing... I mean it... IT WAS THE SAME EXACT THING. So much so, that it put me right back at Leguna Seca (Turismo course)... And when I got out the cars, I was like, "Maaaan!!! These cars ain't sh*t!!! I've driven stuff WAAAAY faster than that!!!!" 😄
Gran Turismo: "You can't play unless you're online, otherwise people might cheat and get super good cars and stuff and take them online."
Also Gran Turismo: "Pay us enough money and you can hop online with a fully tricked out F1 car right away."
(Jokes aside this looks awesome, but let's patch the stupid scammy stuff out sooner rather than later, plz, Polyphony)
10/10
6:15 I would have thrown my controller out the window lol
It looks great but I will have to skip this at least till they take away the online requirement for single player.
I'm glad some major reviewers are honest and brave enough to give this a score lower than a 9 as opposed to huge exclusives seeming to be guaranteed a 9 or above. The game economy (no ability to sell or auction cars, limited-time cars, and microtransactions) and always-online requirement are huge flaws. I also don't like the complete lack of damage, very limited split-screen vehicle selection, last-place starts, or twitchy steering (especially countersteering, at least on the PS4 controller with all assists off). IMO, Forza has been a better series than GT since at least Forza Motorsport 2 (with the exception of FM5), and FM7 is better than GT7 in almost every way.
Will buy once I get the Gran Turismo DD wheel. It seems Sony's direction with this generation of studio acquisitions is also affecting their existing franchises like GT, in that live service is the priority. Hence the always-online, daily car rotations, microtransactions.
Great review and a great looking game. I play a lot of GT Sport but in a limited way. I'm just time trialling and arcade racing in my Toyota 2000GT. GT7 expands on Sport in many areas but to be honest the differences seem small for my usage and the cost plus manipulative microtransactions really put me off.
8.5 okay, I just want to know what racing game will earn 10. how it supposed to be?
Very nice review everything was fair and balanced and was explained well looking forward to playing GT7
Oh. Please don't.
The games gone to shit after launch, it was unplayable for 30 hours and you cant earn credits in the game anymore without dedicating your life into it
please look up some fresh information on the game instead, and hold back on the purchase, for now at least.
That way you will not be disappointed.
@@tooprood Thanks for your opinion but I will focus on the positives and I am sure what ever issues will be addressed.
32 hours in loving the game love the progression through the game with the cafe menus. Got plenty of cars and over 2 million Cr not felt the need to spend real money.
Top 10 game You want to buy this game is your luxury
Rolling starts in last place every time sounds like a huge oversight and major annoyance. I don't want chase mode every single race. Cars are also very expensive, paint jobs expensive, limited credits for victories. I cannot believe these greed monsters went with microtransactions.
Love ya Bloodworth
I was getting interested and then 'GT7 needs to always be online'
I'm good thanks
great review. I'm having a great time with GT7. The driving is so rewarding, definitely several cuts above previous GT games in realism and driver engagement. I enjoyed the campaign, although was sad to see it end in a short few days of playing, as well as some of the variety issues you mentioned.
The 8.5 seems fair, i personally think i would score it a 7.5 based on all the negatives that Blood mentioned in this review. The always Online is a HUGE deal, it means the game has a ticking time bomb, there will be a time were you WILL NOT be able to play this game single player anymore. Also, i find the split screen implementation simply lackluster.
Great review!
always online? just dont.
Man, great game but I wish it wasn't $70 *and* with not-so-micro-transactions.
The haptics are insane. Remember to disable the controller mic
I’ve missed out on the past couple of GT games and was hoping to try this one out. Sadly with those manipulative micro transactions with fomo pushing you to spend I think I’m going to sit this one out too. 😓
10:04 Take it easy sweet heart!
Whoa, thanks, didn't know it's an "always online" type of game, I might pass
So was GT Sport but no one complained about that one
3:44 I saw "Chapter 1: Japanese Compact Cars" and immediately rolled my eyes. I honestly do NOT understand this obsession GT has with forcing people to drive the absolute garbage vehicles first. GT5 did it with those awful Kei cars you were stuck with to begin with, and that awful challenge with the VW bus. I get that Kei cars are often a first car in Japan because they're cheap but why not at least start with like Honda Civic tier small cars at least? People actually drive those for sport around the world. I'd rather start with the damn lawn mowers from TOCA3 than a selection of awful slow econoboxes I couldn't give a rat's about as soon as I get anything approaching a reasonable vehicle.
Is good, is real good
You guys need to update your review. Theres been some shady buisness going on. lol
Online requirement for single player killed any interest I had in the game.
Nice review it looks like a better GT Sport, I will be getting this later this year.
The menus and stuff reminds me of a 2022 ps2 game but in a good way
Great edit Don
Online only is bull, and I'll never support it for a game that isn't an MMO.
Better late than never.
acording to pacther your old friend this is the last gt game.
Never trust patcher words.
The whole online always, randomised shops, and the starting last element puts me off, the races should have qualifying option or straight to race (then start last). Sounds like PD are just being greedy and wanting to move entirely away from the single player traditional GT that the real fans love in favour of this gen Z fan boy social media/b list celeb/movie racer BS.
personally this one is way easier to get into than GT sport
If only one could find a PS5
Thank you for doing this review later after they added in the micro transactions!
It’s the same old boring grind it’s always been and I’m disappointed in the graphics
I do understand it’s hard for reviewers to grasp the whole scope of a game’s progression when the company is actively trying to deceive and manipulate the media. But if you still believe reviews are about helping consumers make informed decisions, please do give this review a needed update.
I won all the races, most gold's in missions/tests and while there are some amazing 10/10 aspects of gt7...
Overall this game is not very good.
People saying otherwise are blinded by the GT name or they just aren't being honest with themselves.
the mtx is so disgusting ... else its a fine game..
