Best Console Motorcycle Racing Game?

Absolute Tosh .... 08 was a sack of pooh and 09 was miles better in the handling stakes ...... personally go and buy Fuel instead , not exactly a bike racing game but a damn site more fun than either SBK games are . If you find SBK09 for £30 then buy it , but not at full whack .

I thought they were both equally vague, though perhaps the assisted mode was a bit more fun. Simulation mode in the 09 version is just as challenging, but also just as wishy washy as the 08 version.

I find 09 is a lot more refined than 08, and I've played a lot of 08.

Fuel is boring.

Yeah 09 is defiantly better.. played Fuel at my friends house the other day, after all the hype I found is rather lifeless..

Its definately better to play than the Moto GP games on PS2 were.

I have SBK-09. Crikey its hard...well it was until i realised i was trying to take corners at 150mph!!! Its pretty good. Its the only one i can comment on as its the only one i have, and have played.

So going around and around in circles on the same old track day in day out is NOT boring .

A good friend of mine partys up with me on Live and we just go and razz about the map hitting all the points and it makes a refreshing change from the GP games . We have often stated that it would be brilliant to do this in real life by just having the opportunity to gas about like dills on vaste tracks of land . We did the same thing in Test Drive Unlimited . Personally I think it`s a good game that gives you the opportunity to Free Ride wherever you like and become a bit of an explorer and to chill out a bit on Xbox Live .

SBK 08 is poo. SBK 09 is less poo.

Is Moto GP 08 = Moto GP?

I got Moto GP on the PSP and it's good but the lack of a graduated acceleration let it down. I just got Moto GP on the Wii and I love it! There's a controller configuration where you hold the control like a throttle and twist it it makes the game way more fun as you can really become more skilful at it, when you have an on/off throttle it's really hard to go round corners!

Having said that I've only just got it so haven't really played it loads. I'm starting in the 125s, doing the championship on them first, cos the 800s are a nightmare to ride (at least without plenty of practice!).

Tourist Trophy is AWESOME
