The visuals are amazing. HDR particularly stands out when the sun hits a car up the road at a certain angle it sort of dazzles you.

Most impressive thing about the game is the physics though. Huge improvement over gt sport. I do think there is a bit of an issue with the fr road cars. They seem to lose the back end a lot more easily than in real life. It’s fun controlling them feathering the throttle but it’s not realistic imo.

When I saw this on my phone earlier it looked very real. Not so much on the iPad now though.

14 minutes of gameplay with some words from the devs, there is going to be a blog post afterwards that provides more context to what is being shown as well.

If you like GT you'll enjoy it. It's looks and sounds great and I really like the way it's structured to slowly roll out tracks and give you a bit of history on cars / makes as you go.

It drives really well on the DualSense and the licences and missions are a nice challenge. I've now got all the licenses but getting all the golds will be a real challenge I think! Seems a bit harder in that regard compared to Sport.

Scapes and the livery editor etc are actually surprisingly enjoyable to use, and both quite powerful tools.

My main criticism comes back to the standard thing of GT's 'racing'. It's not moved on and the AI are generally dull and the races all follow the same pattern of putting you at the back and giving you X laps to try and get to the front. To be fair you can use/tune the cars to make this more or less of a challenge but it still feels a bit plain compared to the better alternatives out there these days. The real challenge is getting the best out of a car on a track really - in that respect it's great.

Don't get me wrong though, despite the above, I've found it tempts me back in whenever I sit down in front of the TV at the moment!

It's worth it.

There's a lot more meat to this than GT Sport. Much more content heavy.

Would people need a racing wheel to enjoy GT7? I currently don't have a racing wheel, so on the fence about getting the game.

A wheel is always ideal if you get one but GT7 is great on the dualsense. Plenty of accuracy and feedback using the controller and you’ll be able to hold everything on the dualsense if you’re decent and practice!

Like Ed said, it’s brilliant with the dualsense and the adaptive triggers really help with accelaration and brake pressure.

Thanks. I am relieved to hear that. Excited to try it out after reading the reviews here.

They have tried their best to distance themselves from her with it, even going as far as putting in the FAQ on the games website that she’s not directly involved and the game is only based around the world she built.

As much of a twat as she is, millions around the world love the HP universe, it’s a cash cow and no matter what she says, it’ll continue to be a cash cow.

Playing GTA 5 last night

Very strange having now played it on 3 generations of Playstation.

Plays very well. Doesn't feel like a whole new game. Just an upscaled version. But small things like the phone sounds coming through your control pad are a nice touch.

It's not as lazy as the GTA trilogy remake which is very poor.

Just added an internal 1TB SSD to my PS5. Was more hassle than planned as the screw you should use to secure the SSD threaded, which after a quick Google doesn’t seem uncommon! I managed to improvise with another screw which will hold it in place fine.

PS5 found and formatted the drive straight away and I transferred about 150gb of games over to it in under a minute. Handy to have the extra space now more games are out that I fancy playing!

Yep same happened to me, pain in the arse. I just used one screw rather than two if I remember correctly, working absolutely fine though and connected properly to the heatsink.

Am still really enjoying GT7. I’ve got all the licenses, not all gold yet. Am at about 34 for the menus and the races now are getting longer and a bit more challenging. I’ve not really bought any cars yet so have about 1.5M credits saved.

Given I’ve paid £70 for the game I’m not paying any more for cars via micro transactions so if it gets really grindy to progress at some point I might lose interest a bit. Lots a negative reviews on this aspect given the recent 24 hrs offline and they’ve seemingly made it more of a grind!

Loving GT7, but it would be nice to compare lap times etc with 'friends'. Trouble is I haven't got any PSN friends with GT7. I've got 104 friends in real life, so not lonely, I'm not a weirdo and you won't find me outside your house in the bushes one night in your underpants, with a fishing rod and a bucket of chicken.

It used to a simple concept: make a game, sell a game. If its good, it sells more = profit. Job done. Make another game. It had seemed Sony had did their job and allowed PD to make their game good. That wasn't enough. Its never fucking enough for these companies now, so its not a shock to see GT7 follow in all the rest of the greedy c*nts footsteps and completly destroy their game and reputation because they just cant fucking help themselves. The latest GT7 patch is arguably the most digusting thing in the industry thus far, and that is saying something. Someone might come here and say "oh, here comes Mac again with more hyperbole". That's fine. But if you think its OK to pay 60 quid or whatever for a product that needs to always be online to play a single player mode and having actual real money economy that charges upward of 30 quid for a fucking digtal car thats actually in the game you paid for, but is locked out via a ridiculous amount of grind to get it, well, youre whats wrong and thats why even the likes of Sonys flagship darling ip has ended up the way it is.

Ill never touch the game so long as these things remain. Sony and PD need to backtrack and offer a sincere apology and an assurance that shit like this will never happen again. But who am I trying to kid?

Update on GT7 in the link below. Basically, free 1 million credits for last week's server maintenance issues, rebalancing the game's economy and the addition of longer races, new events, missions and car/track content. The latter bits were to be expected given how Polyphony updated GTS, but still nice to see confirmation all the same.

Good news on the changes to GT7 although I’ve nearly finished the menus now so won’t really see much from the improved payouts for those. Will cash in the million extra credits later and might treat myself to a McLaren or Aston Martin, maybe a Ferrari depending on the next menu.

I’m currently on the rally menu, 30 something, I hate the rallying… I won the first one I tried but I just find them less fun than the tarmac!

Massive fan of gran turismo myself. Whilst certainly not immune from giving the studio criticism, I'm willing to be more a bit more lenient than most (I guess). The whole microtransaction thing really kicks in after you finish the menu books. Was satisfied with the game up until that point then it became apparent that the amount of grinding was insane, especially with having to spend credits on tuning as well.

Anyway, whilst not the world's best player by any stretch, I could usually get within about 1 - 2.5% of the best times on the time trials on GTS. If anyone wants to add me to their friend list for a bit of friendly competition (as was mentioned by earlier posters) just drop me a PM with your details  :)

Edit: Ain't started a new thread in ages, but would be willing to take ownership for a specific GT7 thread if enough people wanted one, rather than a handful of us posting in here and clogging the ps5 one up. Useful site for anyone with more than a passing interest in the game if you haven't come across it already is below. Always worth checking out for speculation, news, updates, etc.
