MotoGP

"Best motorcycle game yet!"

Im not a big fan of motorcycling until I played this game! It really brings out the intense action of moto racing.

Gameplay: You would think that controlling a motorcycle in a video game would mean lots of disorted buttons all over the controller , but its nothing near that! The gas button is very sensitive, if you push hard the bike would go really fast ... and if you gently push the gas button your bike will go slow. You can also use the right thumb stick to control the gas and brake. Also , once you get the game if you really want a challenge and 100% fun change the camera view to first person and start turning, believe me you'll feel like your IN THE GAME! 10/10

Graphics: BEAUTIFUL! All the maps are unique and just plain amazing! Not as good as games like Project Gotham , but very close. The bikes also look very good but that brings me to my BIGGEST complaint in the game... why don't the the bikes get trashed up and dented when we crash alot?!? I love when games lets you trash up your car/bike but for some reason this one doesnt have that! 8/10

Sound: Another great part of the game! You can hear other bikes closing onto your tail and bikes screeching when you go through a sharp turn. Nothing left to say here. 8/10

Replay Value: If you got xbox live then I know that your having a blast racing other people! If you don't have xbox live... well you can still build up your skills. 9/10

Buy/Rent: I would say if you like racing games then go ahead and buy this game because its great. Also if youre getting or have xbox live then buy this game and support THQ! This is a great racer and people should buy it not just rent it and get your custom bike and all the tracks. Buy

Overall: This is a racer gone great! At some points it feels arcadey and at some points it feels like a moto sim but its up to you in which way you want to play, this game is a blast! The online demo (included in xbox live starter kit) and the full version are worth getting. If you can get only one then just get the xbox live starter kit since the game is the best online but if you can afford both than go ahead and buy it... you'll love the full version as much as the online demo! 9/10
