had a go on the moto gp (new one) its rock hard

sbk09 (and the demo of 10) were pretty good for me. But don't expect many features other than bog standard racing. There are some challenges you can do, which keep the game slightly interesting.

Realism settings can go from anything from full throttle round almost every corner, to if you tap the throttle in a tight bend you're off. Front brake and turn = off etc.

I'd recommend it, but there isn't a huge amount of gameplay.

SBK games are pretty good for straight racing. Enjoyed 08, enjoyed 09 even more, will be preordering X (10).

Burnout Paradise has fun bikes too (all seem to be based on Yamahas) but they're very much a sideline to the main event of cars (and you can't race cars vs bikes).

Test Drive Unlimited has a pretty good selection of bikes and a huge island to enjoy them on, though again the emphasis is on cars and you don't have access to bikes by default (you have to explore in the cars a bit first)

Midnight Club LA has a few bikes, they're arguably the best vehicles in the game once you get 'em.

GTA4: Lost and Damned is all about being in a 1%er biker gang!

There's offroad bikes in FUEL and MX vs ATV if that's more your thing.

What the world needs, though, is a new Road Rash. Road Rash was *the* bike game.

If you still have an old PS2, you might wanna check out Tourist Trophy, it's Gran Turismo 4 but with bikes (really, same developer, same career structure and everything)

The MotoGP games are generally better than the SBK games, atleast IMO anyway.

MotoGP 09

[Holdup]

I disagree with you there Liam :p

SBK games are very glitchy but i just perfer the detail and riding style and better set up of SBK games.

[MCN_LiamM]

TBH I was never that impressed with the graphics on the SBK games and I find them harder than the MotoGP games.

I also like the fact that you go through the classes as yourself in career mode on MotoGP starting at 125cc, and you upgrade your bike etc...

Whereas on SBK you are a real rider and have to start in SBK.

On another note, MotoGP 10 is being launched today at Silverstone, but I couldn't go :(

[davepreston]

oops lauched today ,best not put my achivements up on xbox live for a bit longer then lol

[MCN_LiamM]

Did you get the allmight bandhammer from Microsoft before Xmas?

Is it any good?

[Holdup]

True, that is the one thing i like about Motogp is you have to go up the classes

I want moto gp 09/10 but i dunno when im getting my xbox back :cry:

I've been going at Trials HD for ages, pretty arcadey but good gameplay and graphics.

[hindle8907]

Trials HD is the bomb....lol

[MCN_LiamM]

I keep meaning to download Trials HD but I always forget.

Another gem from the Xbox Live Arcade... Serious Sam HD

I like PGR4, not a bike racing game but better than some dedicated bike racing games.

Should be cheap now as its old too.

[scottjames]

still havnt got a bike game yet, i cant decide. i am leaning towards sbk 09.

but then i quite like the idea of mx vs atv reflex.

scott

[beabert]

never liked sbk at all, nothing like how a bike handles lol

What the world needs, though, is a new Road Rash. Road Rash was *the* bike game.

undoubtedly the best thing ive read on this forum to this day!
