Finally! A real GT game. The game looks and plays incredible on the ps5. Haptic feedback makes all the difference. For example,the break button becomes stiff at high speeds, so need to use more force to push it down. It’s a completely different experience. Music is probably the best since gt2(for me at least). Massive car selection both new and used. Sounds are amazing. I never heard realistic sounds like that in a videogame before. The engines sound exactly as they do in real life. When you cutting a corner at a track ,you can hear your suspension being punished. I have always used the bumper cam in gt games but the cockpit view takes the cake in this one. Attention to every single detail. Your dash reflects off of your windshield on a sunny day,the headlights of the car behind you lights up your interior. Wind noise,engine sound,sfx,dynamic weather (most realistic rainfall I have ever seen) and day/night cycle. Ray tracing mode during replays makes you want to take a photo every 30 seconds.This is the most fun I had with gran turismo since gt 2. The only thing I don’t like that much is the café. You get credits for everything in gt7 so it’s less of a grind to acquire cars,you also get a bonus car after each race if you finish on the podium,get a full bronze or gold on license tests (not silver though,silver gets nothing so go try for that gold! Love it!) but you need to unlock the tracks as you progress through the café races. The dialogues remind me of Jrpg games,which i was never a fan of. Thats why i took a star off my review.That’s my only complaint about gt7. It just feels weird that if you want to blast through trial mountain in a gt3,you can buy the car within an hour in the game but you have to grind for the track . I guess im old school…still..gt7 is a wet dream for car enthusiasts . A true new entry in the series and a must have for ps5 owners.
Ps: I forgot about mentioning loading times on the ps5. Because there are none.
I degraded my review to 1 star and everyone with half a brain understands why. I didn’t even realize it was an online only game until yesterday..you cannot simply restart your game because you can’t access your saved data on the servers? What?? I own this product. I paid full retail price for it. There’s the café system,mini races with no qualifying,no endurance races for big money,no selling cars and on top of that,you can’t reset your progress whenever you want to? So in 5 years when they shut the servers down,you can’t even play it? This is an expensive AAA title,not a free to play mmo
