Ouch, but not unexpected. They're making the franchise into something it's not; an online experience with poor, or at least considerably worse, single player campaign focus. The racing action looks nice, but the lack of customization and heavy online focus makes it a no-go for me, I've had very little interest in this almost since the beginning. Give me GT7 instead!

Yep, the online focus as e-sport can be a real problem for the franchise. Would preffer GT7 as well.

After getting 10 hours with the game, I just don't see how this can be any lower than 85 - 90. I would give it an 88 at the moment. The gameplay is the best in the series, and is just hands down more enjoyable than any other racer in the Sim and Simcade catagory. There is a massive amount of content, I have just hit 25% completion of the single player, and that was the quick 25%. It is going to take 50+ hours just to Gold out the single player stuff.

After getting more time with VR with more tracks and cars unlocked, I am finding it extreamly enjoyable. You simply can not beat driving in VR. That said, it still needs a Time Trail and Drift option added. I would not recommend a PSVR just for this game, but it you have PSVR it is well worth the buy, if you are willing to put in the time to reach level 20 in the Retro mode.

GT Sport is a a nearly perfect foundation for a Digital Automotive Utopia. Now they just need to continue to deliver new cars, tracks, and events month in and month out, and it will become a 10 out of 10.



On a side note. I honestly hate the idea of a GT7. I really hope PD continues to build GTS out for the remander of the gen, and keeps the GT community together. If they continue to deliver cars, tracks, challanges, and more going forward, there will be absolutely no need for a GT fragmentation edition.

That will only happen if they can put at least enough content on the SP to be equivalent to GT5-6, I had over 650h on GT5 but only around 200 on GT6, and it seems 50h would be all it takes to finish GTS. It's plenty of SP time comparing to most games, but wouldn't be the same as a gt 7.

Now that you can create your own races, and earn cash, and miles, you have complete freedom to have the single player expereince you want. The curated stuff may only take 50 hours, but you could easily sink another 600h into your own races. You have the freedom to create any race, on any track, with any car, against the opponents of your choosing, set the difficulty, set the laps, it is all up to you. You don't have to stick to the limited number of events they define anymore. That is what makes this GTS awesome.

Arcade mode, time trials, and drifting all hold wieght  instead of being an after thought. I never touched these modes in previous GT games, because they did nothing to progress my game, now I can run laps for an hour, and earn 1000's of milage points towards upgrading my cars. Or I can set up a 200 lap endurance race and earn a couple 100K in cash, 1000's of milage points, and expereince.
