I was worried about that first but the new campaign plus the online plus everything else you can do in single player and the new progression system which makes you develop all the time, whatever you're doing, makes for up for it imho. If anything it's a more flexible and modern take on the same thing. It's a sad thing it seems a lot of people seem to have prejudices and didn't even try it before writing it off.

 

Couldn't agree more. After playing the demo, I think this is actually the best single player we have had in a Gran Turismo. You have the ability to make your own races, and progress as you see fit. No more running the Sunday Cup or Clubman Cup on the same track over and over. Now you can set up a race at any level, against a pack of your choosing, on the track of your choice, at the time you want, and the amount of laps you want. Does it get any better than that?

Perhapps, because now that miles are a currency, you can even turn a Time Attack session into a progress. This means I can take the Viper on any track, at any time, and spend hours learning shift points and breaking points, while racking up a ton of milage to spend on cars, upgrades, and such. This is a major game changer for me, and as they get more cars and real life tracks, I will be doing a lot of this to build out my garage, and practice for when I take my real cars out for the real deal. 

So, yeah, I definitly think this is the best single player Gran Turismo to date, and I think people will take a liking to it very quickly.
