I’m quite happy with GT sport so far. The menu interface is a huge improvement over previous iterations. The graphics are awesome even on a regular ps4 (ie no 2k hdr for me). The sounds are also a solid improvement over previous games. It’s not yet at the level I think everyone would like, but you get the immersive sounds of things like back fires, transmission whine and the baddle *clunks* on Cars with dct and dog boxes.

Felt a big strange at first without campaign mode but I’ve grown to like the new approach. For example although I loved modifying my cars by purchasing parts through the manufacturer it was time consuming, I much prefer the mileage credit system that allows you to exchange credits in order to boost power and reduce weight in stages. Other little things like the load times and getting to the next license test from the current one all add up to making a better game. You can tell they’ve spend some long overdue time ironing out all the little things that drive you nuts but are seldom spoken about.

It’s not a huge departure from previous gt versions but, for me at least, it has improved in the areas that it counts the most. I’ve been playing since the first gran turismo and as far as gt games go it feels like what gt4 should have been.

Also for what it’s worth the lack of Cars shouldnt discourage you. They wanted to put out a solid game with well modeled cars with the proper level of detail (unlike previous versions). Yamauchi has confirmed more Cars (around 300 more) will be coming quite soon as free expansion packs. He has already confirmed that all dlc will be free.
