25 Years Of Final License Tests GT1 - GT7

License tests have a long history in the Gran Turismo series.
Completing the final license test was always a special feeling. This is a compilation of all final license tests beginning with a lap around Grand Valley Speedway in Gran Turismo 1 in the year 1997and ending 25 years later with the Porsche 917 around Spa in Gran Turismo 7
I recorded Gran Turismo 1,2,5,6 footage my from original PS3 Slim hardware with Elgato HD60. For Gran Turismo 3+4 I used an emulator on PC and OBS Studio. For GT Sport and Gran Turismo 7 the capture function of my PS5.
Wheel I used for GT3-GT6: Logitech G25
For GT Sport and GT7 I´m using the Fanatec CSL Elite PS4 + Clubsport Pedals V3.

[@mikevogler5455]

Man I wish I could go back to 1997, and play GT1 for the first time again, just to have that initial awe of that game, as a whole. I was only 17/18 years old at that time, and Holy crap, everything was so much better back then, too! Getting older sucks a*s...😔

[@something.for.everyone]

That gt4 Merc mission was a near perfect drive 🤘 bravo

[@emmanuelmonterovives1575]

Memories man. Imo of every test of each game: GT1 was hard when my brother and I had to drive the Viper, being a powerful FR, but we never got gold GT2 with the GT-ONE was challenging because of the S curves and the chicane, since you have to be fast on them and using carefully the throttle. GT3 I can say I'm not a big fan, sure I like the GT-ONE, but I hate Monaco with a passion, I've only managed bronze once, I don't I'll get gold to do this GT4 was hellish when I was kid, but when I played again in 2019, it became easier to me, sure its challenging, but if you know perfectly the Nurbugring, you will have no mistakes to do it on a race car GT5 is by far the 2nd easiest, its not even a challenge to me GT6 is ok, even if it means driving the Veyron with horrible handling, but if you know how to drive it, you can even beat the gold time by seconds GT Sport is easily the easiest of them all, that's all But GT7... oh oh oh, its the HARDEST one of all time, its horrible, the track has water poddles, you have to follow the perfect line, avoid spinning out, not going full throttle in sone sections, I can continue with the list, but I like it, yes, its challenging but its something new that I liked of GT7, it took me an hour to get gold on that test, overall, GT3, GT4, GT2 and GT7 are the best GT License tests they can offer, and me typing would've realised that my thumbs were gonna fall off every time I get gold on them

for me it was GT4 the green hell. back then when i was a child it was hard to beat these tests on bronze^^

[@Erich8101]

I played that too as a Child. But to be honest I didn't even remember doing that test. I know that I beat it but I guess on bronze.

[@VictorAlencarDrums]

Yes for me too. Major problem on that one was because if you step out of the track, you are disqualified. Keeping on the track after that long straight part is a hell

[@rayeasom]

GT7 is the hardest for me, 1mm of tyre on a damp patch and you’re into shadow realm.

@@CurtisSmal do you think so? I think that as they got to later games, op got better and better. Probably because they are a good sim racer and GT1 and 2 are a bit too slidy.

I had forgotten about GT4's final test... Until now. 10 year old me tried getting gold for what felt like hours. What a time

[@BiriBiri925]

As I understand it, you played with all assists enabled. (especially since in GT4 assist is turned off by default on each individual car and a 10 year old would never figure out how to turn it off) Because otherwise, I can’t imagine how a 10 year old could in principle reach this level. This is impossible.

GT2 and pre patch GT7 were the hardest for me. The boaty Bugatti of GT6 was annoying but still a challenge. The ridiculously easy Mclaren license on GT5 was my least favourite. S Licenses should be about beating a hard time not playing catch-up...

@@CarloPlaya S-10 still has the same times for gold, silver and bronze since it's release date. So i dunno what any patch actually did to change that license test. I guess he's talking about the patch that broke some dirt/wet events but still that doesn't affect S-10.

Till I saw that, let’s just say I had pushed that memory sooo soooo far into the deep dark crevices of my brain then this came around and gave me a hell of a lot of Vietnam flash backs… I NOW remember absolutely demolishing one of my controllers over that mission.

I got 1:55.352 which is basically bronze because I used autodrive since I'm a beginner in GT7 (My first experience was in GT Sport but it was short.) I like recreating GT Sport tests and some missions into GT7 since I always think GT Sport and GT7 are the same by gameplay.
