New iterations of Gran Turismo and Forza Motorsport are set for release this year. Which one will reign supreme?
Sony Interactive Entertainment has delisted Gran Turismo Sport from the PlayStation Store as of January 1, 2024.
The great digital future. Where games vanish. The benefits of digital just aren't enough over physical to every buy in 100 percent. Especially when my Atari games still work and can be played to this day over 40 years later. Some of these digital games don't even last a whole generation.
Online based titles like this I wouldn't expect to last forever as the game has been updated iterations as in gt7
Same with if FIFA 20 was delisted as example there's update to game. If something like Uncharted collection was delisted then that's something that's bad
You pay stupid money for digital games and DLC, then it goes missing. Who's laughing?
On January 31, 2024, at 06:00 UTC, the online services of the PlayStation®4-exclusive software “Gran Turismo Sport” will come to an end.
Time to get a PS5! New PS5 owners in the USA can currently claim a game for free, but GT7 is not part of this promotion.
GT sport was good. Gt7 is better.
For someone who was crap at racers (and still is) and only played kart racers with powerups, I can say GT sport and gt7 balance SIM/ arcade racing to perfection. Easy enough for anyone to play and not crash but with enough depth to master for years.
Totally different to need for speed / Forza handling where the cars feel 'floaty'.
The dualsense is just supreme with gt7 toi
After Turismo 4 on the PS2, the series was never the same. Although Turismo 4 wasn't a finished game and didn't play as good as Turismo 3. Turismo 5 on PS3 was a mess, Turismo 6 was Turismo 5 finished. Sport on PS4 was another mess, especially VR mode. Sort of back on track with Turismo 7, but so tiring as with the Forza series. Anyone remember the PSP version that had no championship mode? Turismo has always been average at best.
Thats why i dont like online only games. Cant believe this, this game sold so well. You need to be a fanboy to keep supporting Sony after this. Bought this thinking that it would take 10 years for this. I'm lucky that there are enough classics and single players for a life time.
30 of the world's top GT drivers arrive in Monaco after a highly competitive 2022 Series. They must now navigate a regional qualifying group featuring drivers from their home regions for a place at the Grand Final.
12 drivers from each respective group including the top three from Asia-Oceania, Americas, and Europe/Middle East/Africa groups, and the top three from the Repechage will qualify for the Grand Final.

That one that always wins in the racing community. Gran Turismo. Microsoft would kill for the Gran Turismo IP and trade it for the Forza IP in a heartbeat. PlayStation wouldn't make that trade.
17M people (at minimum) bought Gran Turismo between 5 and 6.

14M people have played (not bought) the Forza Franchise on Xbox One and PC (Forza 5/6, FH2/3 and the F2P Forza Apex)
"Forza Horizon 3 became the best-selling, highest-rated racing game in 2016 and the biggest Forza launch to date. The Forza franchise continues to grow and has now seen well over 14 million players on Xbox One and Windows 10."

All of GT's accolades matters more than a 8 instead of a 9 from IGN.

As you can see, it's a myth that Forza is so much better reviewed. Yet GT sells 3/4x as much and that doesn't mean anything.....
For racing fans, Forza Motorsport 7 will probably do more in terms of pushing the bar of what we come to expect. GT has always been the bigger juggernaut sales wise but Forza has undeniably been the better actual game in the last few iterations and from what we've seen from GT Sport thus far hasn't been that impressive. Also expect this year's Forza to hit 4k 60fps and blow people's socks off with Scorpio hardware
It's great having a PS4 Pro and a gaming PC. Get to choose the best game instead of being stuck with one.
Am i allowed to buy both??
Forza of course.
