I'd be just as excited for a new track as I'd be for the announcement that GT7 has reached its EOL at this point.

Not hating because I absolutely adore GT7, but it feels like we're done here.

Instead of [or in addition to] letting us change every rule/restriction for all races after we finished the last menu book, Kaz should absolutely let us make our own custom championships!!! Perhaps with one limitation, the same algorithm that sets the payout in custom races should be applied also in custom championships. But please let us have at least one of the features.
 
GT8 will be a cross gen title that releases exclusively PS5 that will be boosted by PS6. The install base of the PS5 is too big for PD nor Sony to ignore.

Especially in a world where we've now broken the threshold of console prices getting more expensive.

For some reason, people think that if the tariffs go away, prices will come down. I can see corporate greed getting in the way of any of that.

As the economy gets worse and worse, fewer people are going to be able to afford a PS6. So in order to shift games, Sony will encourage cross gen games for as long as possible.

I appreciate the argument could be made that that didn't apply to Nintendo with the Switch 2. How people went from clutching their pearls at the price but then clutching their credit cards even faster. But you need to factor in the Nintendo exclusives and the nostalgia at play here.

Because there's no such thing as generational leaps in power any more, it's all scaling up in PC hardware terms, a PS6 will be a PS5 Pro+ (if that makes sense)
 
There has not been a new track for almost a year. If there is one coming it will proably be the last for gt7. Rest will be reserved for gt8.

I dont think we can expect many big updates for the remaining gt7 lifecircle Just small updates here and there. Cars they are adding is not even that groundbreaking for the most part. This month at least got more intresting cars than the last few months.

More up to date race cars and supercars will most likely not arrive in gt7, its much more likely they get added with gt8 instead.
 
The time between GTS launching and Kaz tweeting that updates for the game would become "modest in frequency and volume" was 2 years and 4 months.

GT7 has been out for 3 years and 3 months.
 
I think they have no reason to delay the release of up to date cars if they are already done. Maybe they need more cash for licensing. I wouldn't mind paying a dlc pack if they will bring more up to date cars.
 
I just do not see them keep supporting ps4 for much longer…

It doesn’t mean that Kaz will tweet again. Especially because GTSport updates where just so full of contents.
 
Che bella macchina!

My brain is thinking about the possibility of this being the most beautiful front-engine Ferrari ever made...

It really is a great looking sportscar, I think it‘s a much more emotional (and better) design than its predecessor, the F12.

Though imo the best looking front engined Ferrari of all time is the 250 GT Lusso:

You are having a laugh. This!? Really!? In my opinion it doesn't even make it onto the list of "good" looking Ferraris, let alone the best. It is better than the F12. I won't deny that, but.... that's hardly an achievement. To each their own of course. All art is subjective by nature. I just can't get my head around calling this THING the most beautiful front engine Ferrari ever made when there are a ton of examples (i.e different Ferrari models) that your brain seems to be woefully unaware of.

That's not fair, everyone likes different cars. I think the Veyron is fantastic looking but a lot of people would disagree with me, but like you say it's all subjective. No need to rag on someone for their taste in cars.

Relax. I'm not ragging on anyone. He made a BOLD, some would say controversial statement. Harmless, of course. Yet quite controversial when considering the vast lineup of models to choose from, and the notoriously opinionated Ferrari fan base. He voiced his opinion. I voiced mine. It was light hearted ribbing, not an attack. If any offence was taken I do apologize, but I hardly think that's necessary...lol

Maybe, but we are still getting regular updates similar in scope as for last 3 years. If PD would stop updating the game it could mean somethibg but they are still doing it + no update from Kaz and this makes me feel that GT8 isn’t close.

Mmmm. Cars wise yes. Contents wise and tracks wise not at all. Everything except cars, engine and sophy has been reduced drastically

My girlfriend thinks differently too. She prefers this one...

I don´t expect GT8 until late 2027 because it will be 30th anniversary since GT1 on december 1997.

Again It will be a mistake crossgen ps5pro/ps6, again ps5 pro will not be as powerful as PS6 and we will have the same bottleneck we have now with PS4

GT8 should be exclusive for PS6
 
I think the PS6 won’t be as powerful as you think. It will be about ray tracing and will probably have little improvement over PS5

Better that way, I hope you are right.

I don't think PD schedules their releases around anniversaries. If they can hit it - nice coincidence. If they don't - no one cares.

Gran Turismo 7 25th Anniversary :), it will also depend on when PS6 is released

That won’t be good for sales though. The PS5 hasn’t sold what it should, a lot of PS4 owners see no reason to upgrade…

It is with great pleasure to inform the GTP community that all 423 of my Gr.B NSXs that I acquired during the roulette bonanza have been sold 😎. Only took 3 years. Never sold one below 80k 🤓.

Those were the days. The menu book ticket glitch (that gave you unlimited 4 Star tickets) allowed me to get all legendary cars. 😂
