Gran Turismo 7 Review - IGN

Mixing the original GT’s trendsetting format with GT Sport’s stern but very successful focus on competitive online racing, Gran Turismo 7 makes a few errors but is a potent podium performance from developer Polyphony Digital.

Microtransaction Reaction​

Gran Turismo 7 features the shady ability to top-up your in-game credit balance with real money via the PlayStation Store. At the time of publish the link to do so directly from the various purchase screens in-game is not functioning, so we're unable to see how much credits cost. It would seem that this is a different approach to the microtransactions added to GT Sport in 2018 (which was around a year after it was reported it would not feature microtransactions). The microtransactions added to GT Sport allowed cars to be directly purchased a la carte for real money; GT7 appears to be a cash-for-credits scheme. Either way, GT7's microtransactions have me feeling a bit cynical overall, especially considering how hard GT7 leans into making some of its coolest cars artificially scarce. Some rare cars will only pop up occasionally to buy before they're "sold out", and others require peculiar, time-limited, in-game invitations to actually purchase. It's easy to see how the fear of missing out may coax some players who are light on credits to shell out real cash to grab certain cars before they disappear again.

That's the PS4 version though, GT7 doesn't offer a free upgrade either as far as I am aware. (as that offer was only extended to Horizon Forbidden west I thought?) Or am I wrong?

Oh I think I'm gonna enjoy this, been a while since I dived in into a car simulator game.

Last GT that I genuinely liked was GT2.

Don't hit me, I'm not a huge fan of the genre, but I think me and my oldman are going to love this one.

It's good to see a GT game early on in the PS5 generation.
Looks nice as usual from PD, although the amount of cars is pretty disappointing. Not sure how GT games are ran, so hopefully PD add a shit ton of extra cars.

Lies about why mods reply ban and warn me.
It was set in stone it's gonna be masterpiece, so no surprise here



Too many awesome games in very short lap of time, i actually would not mind GOW Ragnarok to release until fall 2022 at soonest, just GT7 and Elden Ring alone are gonna hold me easy for +6 months

Decent score for a track racer. Sony should also invest in more arcade-y racing games and bring back Driveclub or something.

Where is Stevivor's Gran Turismo 7 review?

PlayStation Australia does not wish to provide Gran Turismo 7 review code to anyone intending to write about it for Stevivor. The manner in which this has been communicated has been rather disappointing, but nonetheless is the company's prerogative.

Stevivors got blacklisted lmao

Not surprising, Sony has had a history of blacklisting outlets that didn't give its games favorable reviews score as well.
