3.0 out of 5 stars Very complete but seriously flawed, April 6, 2009
By 
= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: MotoGP 08 (Video Game)
see my MotoGP07 review. Basically all the same things apply except that in MotoGP08 the 125/250 support classes are back. Thank you CAPCOM! This is a fantastic addition, and career mode, where you start as a 125 rider on a midpack team and work your way up through better teams and eventually into the MotoGP class is challenging and rewarding.

However, the game still suffers from poor physics modeling and there is an extremely serious flaw that makes a competitive game almost impossible. The flaw is that if you are running the bike with manual transmission you can slow the bike down from 180mph to 20mph with no ill effect simply by throwing it into 1st gear. No instability, no possibility of sliding like there would be with the application of brakes. So as much as I normally enjoy manual transmission, to have a "realistic" race I am forced to use the automatic mode which, especially in the smaller capacity classes, means you're always finding yourself in the wrong gear.

Once again the computer controlled riders are annoyingly robotic and tend to form either packs that could never exist in a real race, or a perfect train of bikes that rarely make mistakes.

As I said in my MotoGP07 review, they could make this game worse and I'd probably still end up buying it so the motivation to make a better game is simply not there. What we need is real competition in motorcycle simulations. So far that hasn't happened so we continue to get mediocre titles.

Bummer.

4.0 out of 5 stars My favorite Moto GP game., March 27, 2009
= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: MotoGP 08 (Video Game)
I've played both the Capcom (Moto GP 2,3) and Climax Moto GP (Moto GP 06) games and I prefer the Capcom games. The configurable controls, simulation level and difficulty make the easy for the casual gamer to pick up and enjoy while providing enough depth and realism to satisfy sim-heads.

Graphically, the game won't knock you out. The tracks aren't overflowing with detail but the bike models look pretty good and it maintains a high frame rate, so the sense of speed is there.

The game shines in the playability category. It's got the usual career mode, time trials and Championships but I really like the Challenges. There are 50 and they range from you'll complete it on the first try to throw the controller out the window difficult.

Online works well enough, but the modes are sparse offering only ranked and unranked races. It would have nice have a tournament mode.

Overall, it's a good game and my favorite bike race game to date (I own Moto GP 2, 3, 06, 08, Tourist Trophy and TT Superbikes)

B+

This review is from: MotoGP 08 (Video Game)
The graphics for this game are terrible. MotoGP4 is a better version of the same game. Same tracks, same bikes.
