Advantages: Easy `arcady' controls Disadvantages: Handling feels disonnected from track, bike sounds are rubbish
I picked this game up for £20 second hand. So am just getting to grips with it really. I've been playing it for about 2 weeks now.
The game was previously developed by Climax but now it is done by Capcom. I was full of hope but can't say they've added all that much to the game. Appart from the different racing classes which is much appreciated.
I'm quite a big fan of the MotoGP franchise of games and also of real life bike racing. But this version leaves me a bit underwhelmed really.They don't seem to improve the game all that much from the previous versions.
In my eyes the previous versions of this game were so much more fun to play. You could powerslide the bikes around corners, trail the brakes etc. The controls were always responsive and the bike felt connected to the track. You could get slightly out of control and bring ...

I think the concept of the game is fairly understandable from the photo. It's a motorbike racing game, with all the riders from the 125, 250 and MotoGP classes. Race as your motorbiking heroes or against them - your choice.

Advantages: Sounds, Season Mode Disadvantages: Time to get use to it
MotoGP '06 is a motorcycle racing game exclusively for the Xbox 360, and probably just as well they didn't release it for any other console. This game really is hit and miss, depending on whether you have the patience to become good at it. Its extremely hard to get the hang of at first and can be quite frustrating.
The game on the other hand does have some pretty good graphics and there are also more tracks than the previous versions in this series. This game also incorporates a new Season mode. As well as this there are more bikes, more riders, and even more tracks to fly around.
This game does boast up to 20 player online racing which is great if you do like and get the hang of the game.
In the new career mode you race on all of 17 real-world GP tracks and compete for the world title. In this mode there are four different ...

Manufacturer's product description
The official game of the 2008 season, MotoGP 08 features all the official riders, bikes and tracks from this year's event providing the definitive 2 wheeled racing experience. The development team's overriding aim is to deliver an unparalleled handling model that allows access points for gamers of all skill levels and just as importantly provide a challenge to meet each player's abilities.ALL 3 MOTOGP CLASSESMotoGP 08 puts the player at the centre of the MotoGP experience by letting them join a team and compete alongside their sporting heroes in all three race classes - 125cc, 250cc and MotoGP. Recent MotoGP titles had excluded these titles at a cost and Capcom are keen to ensure that all the riders are faithfully represented, which also enables complete progression through the ranks as well as giving the gamer a different racing experience per class.With scaled and competitive AI which adjusts within limits to give a more enjoyable race experience on the lower levels but the higher levels show no mercy. You have the ability to set up a custom match search, create your own match setting up to 12 players in total. All 3 weather settings can be set up with collisions also being able to be turned off if required. Accessible to all but hard to master. - Quick matchesTUTORIAL MODEAlso new for this year is a tutorial mode should you require it. This allows you to decide what motorcycle and racing style suits you best. But rather than the tutorial mode taking you 'out of the main game', this mode takes you immediately into an arcade race and offers you hints and tips from the beginning. By pressing START you can pause the game also allowing you to test out and alter the racing model (from 'Arcade' to 'Advanced' or 'Simulation', change your transmission options or leave the tutorial mode entirely. You can also choose to automatically see live tips whilst playing, where the game will judge your riding style and offer help and advice where needed.MAIN MODESCareer mode's new for this year is the ability for you to create your own rider (in previous MotoGP titles you've only been able to select an existing rider of the MotoGP event) and develop your skills for up to 5 racing seasons with the aim of becoming the ultimate MotoGP champion. Choosing a team and bike class at the beginning of each season you'll be able to customise your rider through a selection of bike helmet designs that unlock as you progress. As you win races , stronger teams will look to recruit you for the following season, enabling you to race better performing bikes. As you progress you'll also be able to access certain bike upgrades which improve it's performance across a range of parameters such as straight line speed, acceleration, braking and cornering.Quick race - choose your favourite track, rider, difficulty level, bike class, riding model, transmission type, number of laps and weather conditions and go race.Time Attack - set the best time at each circuit, competing against yourself to shave vital seconds off your record. Select the circuit and rider and off you go. You can decide whether you want a ghost rider to compete against, improving where you can to beat your previous lap.Championship - Select any class, rider and team and compete in and re-create the entire 2008 season. Practice and Qualifying modes are optional whilst you also decide the weather conditions, difficulty setting, number of laps and handling model to allow you to shape the season of your choice. Before each race you can tweak the set-up on your bike, including changing tyres, suspension settings and gear ratios. During the championship you'll be able to check rider standings, see where your rider ranks and view individual performance statistics for the real aficionados. And if you're still not happy with your own performance you can practise racing the circuit on your own (solo) in free practise mode.CHALLENGESIf that wasn't enough we've set up 50 unique challenges for those ambitious enough to accept them. Complete the challenges and you'll be rewarded with lots of hidden content. The challenges are divided up into the following categories:Speed - stay above the speed indicated and finish inside the allotted time.Brakes - Use a limited amount of braking sparingly to complete a circuit of the track.Racing Line - Don't stray too far from the optimal racing line.Checkpoint - Reach each checkpoint before the time runs out in order to complete the lapSingle race - Complete in an actual race scenario from MotoGPChampionship - Complete in an actual championship scenario taken from MotoGP1vs1 - Beat a single opponent to the finish line on the final sector of a circuit.ONLINEPS3, Xbox360 and PC will allow you and up to 12 friends to race on any track from the MotoGP season. You'll be free to select any bike from the 125, 250 and GP class and race any of the manufacturer bikes, competing in individual races. The 360 version will include headset voice chat support only.
