In our review of Gran Turismo 7, we said: “With so many modes and gameplay that’s to die for, Gran Turismo 7 is a joy to play. Polyphony want you to love playing and learning at the same time. It has a steady progression pace that becomes almost addictive when completing Menu Books. You’re rewarded in so many different ways. Not only can you earn cars and GT Credits from completing races and challenges, the Daily Workout rewards you with a roulette ticket for reaching so many miles every day. The Music Rally is also a nice little addition that lets you race to checkpoints along to the beats of an amazing soundtrack. GT7 is classy, with some of the finest visuals ever seen in a racer, and a bouncy and fun soundtrack that makes each minute spent with it feel like a dream.”
