Moto GP had a high standards to live up to coming from the Namco school of gaming wizardry. With Ridge Racer V coming out nearly a year before moto gp this is practically a second generation PS2 game. It is as anyone who has played the game will tell you very realistic. Unfortunately this is what causes the downfall of an otherwise fine game. Granted you can make it easier by turning off the simulation effects but it's still not particularily easy to master the twitchy controls of the bikes. There is a season mode where you can progress from one team to an other but if you haven't already fallen asleep by the end of the first season you will realise it's the same tracks against the same bikes. If you want a decent racing game then wait for the likes of Gran Turismo 3 A-Spec to arrive in the UK at the end of June.

Advantages: Great fun to play, whatever difficulty setting you choose. Realistic and challenging. Disadvantages: Could do with having a few different tracks as there are only five (you can race them reversed though).
