My review

WRC 10 is the most intense , thrilling , rally game I have played , no other driving game feels as good as this when flying through tight fast stages on the limit , what a rush.

Very enjoyable game , A+++

This is a very well made kit that deserves kudos for price and value.

Definitely the best WRC game yet..!
Have completed 5 seasons in the career mode and loving it!

The much anticipated Gran Turismo 7 has finally released, and I get the sense that the franchise is actually living up to the hype for the first time since GT5 or even 4. If you're an adult who grew up on this series you're probably going to like 7, and if you're a newcomer to the series you're also probably going to like 7.

The new look GT mode's primary feature is the GT Cafe, which serves to give you missions to complete throughout the campaign. It's a more linear game than we're used to seeing, though it goes retain GT's traditional open-endedness in the form of additional races and activities not tied to GT Cafe progression. Beyond this, the old mainstays of GT mode are all back, from tuning parts, to a used car yard, to oil changes and car maintenance, as well as a few improvements to said features, such as the largest selection of visual customisation options yet.

A big and much needed change to races in campaign mode is the inclusion of difficulty levels and removal of rubberbanding. Whilst the races are still catch the rabbit style, the thrill of the chase is greatly enhanced by having a harder mode and not seeing the lead AI suddenly go 10 seconds a lap faster just because you're in 1st. This will tide me over until Sophy is implemented in a later update.

As for online, Sport mode makes a return largely unchanged. This was the highlight of Sport, so little change to the iRacing-lite formula was necessary for 7. There are however new features here, such as the launch week races having specific power and weight limits that players have to build their road cars around. Custom lobbies also remain available.

However it is important to point out that your options are limited at first; many features are locked until you've made some GT Cafe progress, and some circuits won't unlock for free play until the mid to late game. This could be off putting for sim racers who are used to sandbox style games and/or career modes segregated from free race options. But if one is willing to treat GT7 as a journey and enjoy slowly unlocking content rather than fret too much about a destination, you should be able to have a lot of fun with this game, and whilst it's not perfect, I believe GT7 is indeed excellent, hence the 5 star rating.

EDIT: This review is outdated, but will remain as it was accurate to my feelings at the time.

Gran Turismo 7 is excellent. Probably one of the best games of the last few years.

First off: I'm playing the game on a PS4 Pro. It runs beautifully and looks amazing. Complaints about it not looking "Next-Gen" enough are absolute nonsense. It's a beautiful game using the best of what Next-Gen has to offer to make car lovers go absolutely nuts.

The current car selection (on release) of 424 cars might not reach prior heights of Gran Turismo, but every car is on the same level of detail, no standard or premium models here. Cars look lifelike and absolutely beautiful, with detailed interiors and amazing exteriors.

Graphics improvements from GT Sport are felt almost immediately in the much improved antialiasing and lighting. Even without Raytracing the lighting is breathtakingly beautiful and makes each Track feel alive.
All the better that the track selection is great, making racing both fun and visually pleasing.

The driving model improves from GT Sport, making it nicer to narrow down your driving style. It's forgiving if you want it to be, but can also be made fairly realistic.

The introduction via the GT Cafe is a bit long winded, but introduces you nicely to the basics of Gran Turismo. I'd appreciate an option to skip it, but it's fine as it is too.

Microtransactions are present, but non-instrusive and a case of "If you don't want them, don't buy them". Driving cleanly earns you a 50% bonus on earned credits anyway, so if you learn to not just punt the AI out of the way like you're in Forza you'll do fine money-wise.

With all its flaws i still give GT7 a really good review it makes up from 6 and sport but it has alot of room to improve itself. It may not be the complete nostalgia trip i grew up with but it does keep me coming back.
ROOMS FOR IMPROVEMENT
-Qualifying for single player (it needs to happen)
-The option to add your own music (attach Spotify to use your playlist for menu and race)
-make every track have day/night and rain. (Needs to happen)
-better flag rules (full course cautions and pace car)
dont be hating on a game that just came out this isn’t battlefield 2042 updates always comes

I've played through every iteration of the GT franchise (even the PSVita version) and I can say that this brings me back to my all-time favorite GT3: A-Spec.

I love the story mode, with all it's oddities and smooth jazzy feel. I love the enormous time sink this will be, to get even close to 100% completion. I love that I can use my full-on cockpit setup with all my Fanatec hardware (of which none is compatible with a PS-anything with a %$5 3rd party controller and a $90 drivehub.

Is it a sim? Of course not, but it comes closer (IMO) than any other previous iteration in the GT franchise. If it had a fully customizable cockpit view and AMS2/RF2 physics, I would likely forget to eat/drink/shower for days at a time.

Overall Gran Turismo 7 is a top tier game, and I think it will only get better as it ages. There are some small hitches here and there, but the game overall has incredible polish, and plenty of content to keep us entertained until they start releasing new cars and tracks. As a long time Gran Turismo fan, this gets the seal of approval from me.

Having played F1 2021 for about 12 hours at the time of this review, I am positively suprised by the game - before '21, the most recent F1 game I played was 2014. I had seen lots of videos about the series in the meantime but always heard about how it would be too arcade-y, which is not the case. Sure, it is not a full sim, but if you want it to, it can be a real challenge.

The AI know how to race you, the cars need precise input but also quick reflexes when the back steps out (which it will if you're to trigger-happy with the throttle). The atmosphere of an F1 weekend is probably unmatched and will draw any F1 fan right in.

There are a lot of game modes on offer, which will keep players busy for quite a while. The new story mode Braking Point is very interesting and captivating - at least so far, since I am in the middle of the second F1 season. I was sceptical that it might be a bit of a cheesy story, but so far, it has done a great job in keeping me motivated to play.

A bit of a downside are the various oversights like the lack of mouse support in menus on PC, a bug which requires Thrustmaster wheel users to update their firmware each time they boot up their PC if they want their FFB to work and unreasonably slippery kerbs in some places. There is no historic content either, meaning classic cars are scrapped altogehter - which is a shame if you are an F1 history nerd like myself.

While F1 2021 is lacking in some areas, it's generally a well rounded simcade game that's got plenty to offer to people who either liked the last few F1 games or people looking for a competent simcade game.

I haven't had this much fun with a racing game since RBR arrived in 2004 !

Any of the Croatian stage with Loebs old Citroen is well worth the price of admission !

WRC 10 isn't perfect by any means but if KT keep this pace I am sure I can retire RBR Vanilla after WRC 11 arrives so there wont be any need for any Codemasters games for the coming 6 years

I gave up on dialling in the FFB and settled for a dull asphalt experience instead of exaggerated rattling on dirt roads. Turned off the engine vibration, and set road/suspension vibration at 25%. It can be turned up to 50% for asphalt, but I don't want to be constantly fiddling with it.

It also takes a bit of fiddling to get the title running smoothly, but my experience from the earlier titles made this easier (keywords: 60 fps vsync). The game is more resource hungry than other titles, though, and it has the occasional small freezes. But nothing game breaking on my system, at least.

Other than this, the game is giving me a lot of fun - the stages are very good and plenty. And the cars are of course the best selection available in any game because of the license...

There is a 3rd party telemetry plugin patch available, which is a must-have for me at least.

The menus are a bit clunky but do their job. I would prefer pure keyboard navigation, rather than this keyboard/mouse hybrid solution. It's better than the WRC 9 menu system, which is a disaster on an ultra wide monitor.

As for the driving physics, they are good enough for me to enjoy the game. The car behaviour feels a bit ... simplified at times, but the driving is still very much fun.

Would absolutely recommend the game, despite its obvious flaws.

And a few ideas to improve :
- speed traps and lap times, should have a result per class
- odometer in external view
- dark mode interface

I think the cons/pros sum it up pretty much.

I really hope they fix this. The coop is messy, is a deal breaker for me. There's your missing star
Not having split screen is absurd in 2021. The good memories with friends on the nintendo 64, and having social interactions is behind us !
Despite a few minor issues and few visual glitches, it remains the perfect relaxing game with a controller and a couch

Now that the title with increased wheel support actually supports wheels on a PC, I have upgraded the review score to 4 stars. I am now positive I will spend hundreds of hours in this game.

What can I say, it's definetly great and don't hesitate to give it a try

For now, it is NOT better than MotorsportManager. Let's just hope Frontier will give us some patch.
And yeah.. We want some Mods/Trainers

I really like this one! It's not perfect, but the gameplay is actually really nice. The different camera angles really give an immersive feel. If they improve how the crashes look, it's a winner to me. 4,5 out of 5 stars.

P.s. multi pitstops work perfect for me?

F1 manager 22 is a good game but there is a lot of room for improvement. So the good things; its great to have an actual engineer not jeff or marc who have had the same voice lines since 2014. The fact that its all licensed and not just Motorsport manager with mods is also great. For the most part graphics are pretty solid as well. Now the bad, the crashes are so not legit its just funny also the way the AI drives could use some improvement but IMO its not that big of a deal. Some small things like steering wheels not being representative of the real cars and when in quali/practice the cars just pull into the garage like its a house garage. Also just a quality of life change I would like to see is a way to shorten the races or just fast forward faster. Now onto the thing I think is worst, Crofty. Crofty's voice lines are executed very poorly it just sounds so bad. Karun Chandock is in the game and he does a great job compared to Crofty IMO. So F1 manager gets a 4/5 from me but it definitely has room for improvement.
