If you have $15 to spare and want something to supplement GT7. I can very highly recommend Art of Rally. Don’t be fooled by the art style and perspective (which are great in themselves). It has many sim handling characteristics and was obviously put together by someone deeply ingrained in the culture of rallying.

GT Planet's servers aren't Gran Turismo 7's servers. People post here while unable to play GT7 all the time. Every update, in fact. Remember that 30+ hour outage? There were so many posts here, yet no way to play the majority of GT7!

I took this news as my green light to finally buy GT7. It's everything I had hoped for! I love it. Very much back to the old GT style. Lovely new touches like the sound of a cooling exhaust after a race.
Glorious graphics.
Ah and at last, welcome back Trial Mountain!
If you're an old skool GT fan this is the one you've been waiting for. Buy it now 👍

Returning tracks are nice, and the graphics and sound truly are great, but I really don't think this game appeals to "old skool" GT fans at all. That doesn't mean you can't enjoy it if you are one, but the focus is clearly different. If you're looking for a game that has progression similar to any of the past numbered GT games, you're going to be very disappointed. GT7 offers only a linear campaign through the café, and a very limited selection of races and championships. There are only 10 championships, and many of the early ones are only two races on the same track, with the second race simply being the same as the first but using the reverse layout of the track, sometimes with different weather. Prize cars also do not make a return. There are less total races than Gran Turismo 2. Many of the races are also not creative at all, and all but 4 pay very little for your time. While there are some that stand out, they're mostly based on country, drivetrain, and/or PI. This is especially true for the championships. Races are also grouped by track on a world map instead of being grouped together as part of a series, which makes it difficult to find them, and may be a tactic to hide how few races there actually are, as listing them by series would reveal that there are only 33 of them. Most outside of the World Touring Car series only have 3 races, as the café menus are designed around having you complete these 3 races to win a prize.
The singleplayer experience is not at all what an old fan would expect. Beyond that, it's personal preference whether they still want to give it a chance. Now would be a good time to do that.
I’m an “old Skool” GT fan and GT7 delivers what I want from a GT title. IE a sandbox experience where I can spend days, if not weeks, on any particular activity.
Currently I’m spending a lot of time Time Trialing and beating friends targets on Circuit Experience. I haven’t completed Cafe extras or started Missions yet. Other days I’ll be in photomode, creating liveries, or building cars.
Everyone plays differently. I see some people rush through new events. Or grind away to buy certain cars. For me no GT has ever been about this. It’s about driving the cars and tracks I enjoy.
Maybe it’s because I’m burned out on traditional games and the idea of ticking off events & percentages. This goes for all genres. I want a handful of games I can play for pure enjoyment. Art of Rally is one of those. Rollerball is another indie I’m looking forward too. Now I just need a boxing title and I’d be done for this gen!

Why… have they not sold to expectations and this is to give them a kick or is it just the games market is down generally and it’s to kickstart sales with some top headline titles
