Gran Turismo 7 brought in more dollars during its launch month than any other entry in the franchise, market research firmNPD Groupsaid on Monday.

But, but, "it has microtransactions", "you can't play offline", "well that came and went". Looks like despite fanboy wishes, this game is doing well 😎

this proves the cows love to get milked hard. I couldn't believe it when I heard $ony was charging people $190 for a single car, or 1 week to grind 150 hours to unlock it. You could buy that car faster by working a minimum wage job. Sad cows, getting jipped so bad.

A game doing well at launch doesn’t necessarily mean that the game or franchise is in a good position overall. A lot of those purchasers can feel disappointed or ripped off by the product. They may not have fully understood or even known about some of the aspects of the game.

I mean I have zero interest in any car game, buy should you really celebrate a game doing well when it have that much MTX in it?? I get that’s it’s an exclusive and all so guess some cows will treat any “positive” news as the best thing since sliced bread, but still….

While the MTX and grind sucks (but improved over time with the patches they did), you don't have to buy MTX and the entire game can be completed without spending a penny on them. The worst part really is being prompted to go to the PS Store all the time to buy credits with real money.

@djoffer123: You can just play the game and use in game currency to buy everything, you don't have to spend a dime (other then the initial cost of the game of course) of real money on anything. Don't listen to fanboys, you'll be better off and more knowledgeable.

And this is why they put all of those MTX in the game, they knew they'd get away with it and even defended despite the negative headlines

I am really enjoying it so far. I dropped it for 2 weeks for Elden Ring but I played it today and I really like it all over again.

And like all GT games even including GT Sports, this game gonna have legs and going to pop up in charts for years. GT Sport even with its lackluster release still gains 14m players years later and this game will be the same.

Taking an established franchise and nagging people ingame to buy MTXs pays off. Who knew.

This sucks for us gamers, but I guess Sony is more important..?

Apparently best GT sales dollars in revenue, not units sold. I wonder where it would stand when it's unit sold? And do we count PS4 and PS5 sales of the game? Or just PS5 sales?

I need a calendar to see what counts this week.

When did Turn 10 add microtransactions to Forza Motorsport 7? It must have been in the last week or so, because the game never had them since it was released.

So either you are trolling us, or you literally didn't know that.

@SolidGame_basic: Good for Sony. I hope they got those microtransaction issues resolved. I watched a few game play videos and it looks really impressive.

I hope the next Forza Motorsports comes soon, so we can get some comparisons going.

Elaborate. Forza was released 5 years ago (which you stated). October of 2017 to be precise. It doesn't have microtransactions.

So how about you do us a favor and take your pride and L and don't post until you know what you are talking about.

Polyphony Digital didn't change anything about the microtransactions. Prices are the exact same as they were day one, and they are still advertised for you to spend real money in the PlayStation Store after every in game credit purchase you make in the game and on your PS5 dashboard when the game is highlighted on the XMB.

No, that is you getting slapped for saying that the Forza game that came out 5 years ago has microtransactions. It doesn't. The question we have is, why did you lie?

Forza Motorsport 7 came out 5 years ago. It has no microtransactions. So you finally agree to that. So now you have moved on to a new game.

If you are asking about a game that came out LAST year (not 5 years ago), Forza Horizon 5 has:

https://macrotransactions.org/forza-horizon-5

Contains no direct in-game microtransactions, but does contain a large amount of optional paid DLC, some of which might be of questionable value.

What Gran Turismo 7 Could Learn From Forza Horizons 5

In contrast,Forza Horizon 5 includes no direct microtransactions, and certainly no credit-based bundle system that has been so hated by players of its rival. Forza does have DLC that can be purchased individually.

Microtransaction:

Microtransactions are in-game purchases that unlock specific features or gives the user special abilities, characters or content. The purchases are virtual.
