Topic: Gran Turismo 7

As others have said, that was quite possibly the best State of Play ever. So well done, it raises the bar for future ones.

Also, like others have said, I'm not much of a racing simulator guy, but even I'm interested in the game now too. I was going to largely ignore it as I haven't played a GT game seriously since back on the PS1, which was a big reason why I bought the system. I played GT5 some according to my trophy list, but skipped 6 because I prefer arcade racers. Yes, it's partially because I'm not that good, but there's a lot of time that has to be invested as well. Still, after finally watching the State of Play this morning, I am considering a purchase. It looks amazing.

@AdamNovice There was quite a bit before I noticed, with a stuff like 'how can you spend 30 minutes just watching cars go round a track'. But yeah I too was surprised of how much positivity there was.

I'm sure that will soon be correct in the next 24 hours. Probably something NFT related lol.

I finally got chance to watch the SoP and I agree with what others have said, a really good SoP and shows off GT7 at its best. The game looks truly amazing and the sound was pretty tight too just listening to the video with headphones. Loving the look of the weather simulation. I'm still on the fence about buying the game as it still looks a bit too serious for me but I'll perhaps see nearer the time.

I'm counting down the days.

It's rare for me to be genuinely excited for a game these days.

I still enjoy gaming - very much so as it happens - but there are few games coming this year that I really am looking forward to.

Gran Turismo is, in my humble opinion, one of the greatest I.P in all of gaming.

GT Sport was almost there, it just lacked those features that GT7 now seems set to offer.

GoW Rangarok is the only other game releasing this year (hopefully) that'll be a day one purchase for me.

Roll on March 4th.

@velio84 Now that is one good looking car! It might actually look better in that shot than it does in real life.

@velio84 I understand that in that mode you put the car in a number of locations outside of the actual racing tracks. Do you know if those are renders or actual photography or something? Because they looked kinda real

No puddlegate for GT7.

Can’t wait for this one, looks the business

@JohnnyShoulder PlayStation UK once again proving to be the best PlayStation social media account, lol

Btw, looks like the media got their review codes

@Voltan PlayStation UK and Australia sometimes have good bants with each other, which often end up with some humorous results.

reviews incomming today!

43 minutes to go!! Haha

Exciting times again! 😀

@velio84

For me it is Horizon FW and GT7

Getting some great reviews. Although VGC seemed to dislike it for its dialogue and history. Haha.

@velio84 Wouldn't they mention the micro-transactions if they were bad? Or were they not available at all during the pre-launch?

@velio84 Ah, geez, didn’t realize this game was going to have MTX. That’s soured things a little for me.

The microtransactions weren't live during the review process. I assume they will be available on Friday at launch. I wouldn't say I had any issues sourcing credits to buy cars and upgrade parts, however.

@velio84 @Th3solution @Voltan That sucks somewhat, especially as it's a full priced release. Hopefully it's not too grindy as I'd hate it if they'd done that just to push you down the route of having to buy credits. To be fair though I've played two racing games recently, Wreckfest and Dirt 5, both of which had a similar thing and I haven't felt I needed to buy anything additional to what I unlocked in game.
