MOTO GP for Playstation 2
Finally a decent game worth
buying went on sale today in Japan. If you are a fan of GP racing like
myself and own a Playstation 2 then I suggest you get this game as soon
as possible !! It is so incredible and realistic !!  I
first purchased my Playstation 2 or as it is known in Japan now, the PS2
in early March of 2000. I was one of the lucky few to get their hands
on the PS2 during it's initial release. Unfortunately there were no real
interesting games for me. I bought Tekken 3 Tag - Tournament  Battle
but soon become bored with it. I love racing games so I had to buy this
new game which is based on the awesome GP bike races that we all love.
It was a little expensive but after you try it out for yourself you forget
how much you paid for the game which by the way cost me 6,800 Yen or about
65 US Dollars. OUCH !!! Anyway I was sure glad I bought it cause it is
absolutely fantastic !! All of the racers are in the game, Mick Doohan,
 Max
Biaggi, Alex Creville, Aoki, Abe, Harada, Okada and Kenny Roberts. Plus
you get to ride all the cool bikes, everything !! It's so real compared
to the older Playstation 1 version. The sound is great !! You fly thorough
the gears and you can really tell the differences between the makers.
In the corners you front wheel starts to lift up and you loose control.
It's just like watching the GP races on TV !!  The
graphics are totally improved upon. When I passed Norick Abe, you could
see his long hair flying in the wind. The other riders even look back
at you and get angry !! It's great !! Another great feature about this
game is the replay mode. After you finish your race you can watch yourself
race and save the greatest replays to your memory card. Other cool features
are the Season mode where you race in a simulated season for points, or
the two player mode where you can race with your buddy or mate !! Plus
when you get better and clear certain stages you get bonus prizes and
can unlock special riders and secret video clips. This game is definitely
worth buying if you are a fan of motorcycle GP racing. In fact it's almost
as good as watching it on the TV !! You find yourself leaning over in
the curves. The only problem is you can only get it on the new Playstation
2, sorry it won't work on your old Playstation. Hopefully it will be on
sale soon for the rest of the world. If not then maybe you should move
to Japan. To find out more about this game, see the bikes and video footage
