@Barighm: Yeah if you lose your internet connection Game Pass freaks out I know that, lol, but that would be a service review point. If you place DRM on a game by game basis, even if you game shouldn't need online for half of it, is it very different? Horizon Forbidden West had disconnect issues? Seriously?

@Barighm: That maybe true, but there's truth in his comment all the same. The accuracy of the message shouldn't be judged soley on the medium that carries it.

@johnny0779: I really think reviewers should be allowed to change their score on release day. A reviewer on another site literally commented on the article about the MTX of this game saying if they knew about this during the review they would've given it a lower score. How is this crap ok to pull on the consumer?

@johnny0779: Hey remember Xbox One DRM circa 2013 before they patched it prior to release? Apparently it's ok now.

Why should they bother putting the effort into it if people keep buying it anyway?

After reading through the reviews so far, the perfect scores kind of confuse me given the shortcomings it has.

@MigGui: Actually I just checked out DF's analysis and apparently there are some framerate issues at times of great stress, no car damage, and they believe that it was built upon GT Sport, which is why it was easily cross gen. As well the game requires an online connection at all times, even in single player. Also there's MTX in the game. The more I read about it, the more I'm disappointed really.

@Sindred: Well even without that notch against it the AI and car selection do still count against it.

@sakaixx: I believe this goes back to Sony's reluctance to give Polyphony proper funding. It's been a problem with this series for years. Though I wouldn't be totally surprised if they do MTX the new cars.

So it's a Mad Max movie without Mad Max?
