GTPlanet and other members of the media woke up to review copies of Gran Turismo 7 in our Inboxes this morning. We can confirm the international review embargo lifts on March 2 at 11:01 AM GMT (convert this to your local time here). Our written and video reviews of the game will both be published at that time.

Gran Turismo 7 is just over a month from releasing on March 4, and Sony kicked off the game’s marketing blitz today with a half-hour “State of Play” video dedicated to the title.

We asked it after the fourth Horizon was revealed. And now we’re asking it again after the fifth Horizon has been revealed… Where do you think the next Horizon should be held?
What I’m about to do is rank every mainline console GT game from worst to best in my opinion, then I’ll try to see where I would place GT7 based on what we’ve seen so far about the game.
