Moto GP review
Posted by @ 6:04 PM, EST
We added a review of Namco’s motorcycle game, Moto GP.
Here’s a bit:
Take the Ridge Racer engine and replace the cars with high-powered motorcycles and you are pretty close with this game. The graphics are a mixed bag. They do blaze along at 60 frames per second refresh rate with absolutely no slowdown or pop-up. The track designs are taken from their real-life counterparts and the machines are detailed from the actual production bikes of famous racing teams. Where the graphic engine falters is in the same place as Ridge Racer V. While Mark will disagree, I can find the jaggies are noticeable from the lack of anti-aliasing. It may be a picky complaint but the overall look of the game would have been better with some sort of anti-aliasing in use. Having that said, the game is nice to look at and play. I want to also mention how incredible the replay mode is. It looks like a real television broadcast. The superior power of the PS2 is clearly demonstrated here.Full review

Must agree with bjorn, if you love the real MotoGP then you'll love this one.. although the five bonus 'reverse' tracks are nice, I'd rather the 12 real courses that are missing from the season.. ahh well, hopefully a moto gp 2 will be released with that. |
