I am not sure when it came out but I rented it at Blockbuster about 2 weeks ago. Someone on the board told me about it.
PS2.

You can do Flamingo's, cross over wheelies, surfing, skitchin', all that ****.

It was pretty cool. I will probably pick it up for my collection somewhere cheap.

Thumbs up

I bought MotoGP3 and I do it again if I had to. It is so life like and the realistic handling and graphics are the best. I've already past all the challenges and have all the cool bikes. The cockpit view is so life like and when you race in the rain it feels like you are really there. It is a game that you should add to your collection.

So does your view tilt with the bike when you lean into a corner? That ain't life like at all... always annoyed the hell out of me with cockpit views. You ever try to corner your bike like that? It's freakin scary, feels totally weird.

The other thing that pisses me off with EVERY road racing game I've ever played is the bikes steer slow as hell at low speeds, and steers quick at high speeds, the exact opposite of reality. Like taking the hairpins, in the game, you throw the bike on it's side as hard as you can, going like 25 mph, and it STILL takes forever to turn, if you even make the corner. On a real bike, you can throw that bitch from one side to another in a heartbeat at 25 mph. But try throwing it on it's side at 125 mph, and you have to wrestle it some. Is MotoGP 3 any better in the respect?

I think I'll rent before I buy, but will definitely check it out.

The view is kinda a pain in the but, but it is still cool to see the inside on the bike. I find that motogp3 gives you the abillty to turn pretty quick in slow corners, but if you are doing 190mph on a straight away you gotta slam on the brakes if you got a hairpin turn comin up. You can rind wheelies and do stoppies all day if you want. If you hit R2,the gas button, and pull back on the toggle switch you can ride a wheelie through all the gears. If you hit R2, the brake button, and push the toggle foward you can do stoppies. I also have Riding Sprits and that game is ok. The only real cool thing in that game is the different real street bikes you can buy and then soup them up. The corning kinda sucks and you can't do any tricks. I would rent motogp3 if I was you , so you can check it out before you buy it. I rented motogp2 about 12 times so when motogp3 came out I just bought it so I wouldn't spend a bunch of money renting it.

ok ok....so i played Midnight Club II.....its a Great game if you want to 12 infront of the cops at 130mph while your bike is on fire........but if thats not your life long dream then this game prolly isnt fun for ya......alot like GTAVC.....except only one type of bike....and it doesnt keep distances on wheelies and stoppies.....
bike tops out at like 170 or so...but if you wheelie then you get an amazing boost.....which mustard a 197mph wheelied over a car because i was watchin the speedo.......its gets some funky camera views......(and by "funky" i mean....they are cool but hard to drive with).....i will not be buying this game.......that is my 2cents ............
anyone else play or have this game???

I played midnight club 2, The controls aren't very real. It has a very artificial feel of driving I didn't like it.

Hell yeah, The only way I could get the bikes on GP3, was I would have to wail in to the champ of the track, usually on the first turn doin' 180 or so, WHAMM!!

I think most bike games are lame because they only have on/off throttle(ps2 buttons are proportional) On moto gp3 i found myself either lighting the back tire up or coasting through turns. You could tap the button, but thats no fun. Midnight club was fun, but got old. The best bike game i've played is gta vice city. I've had 5,800 ft wheelies on the dirtbike, and been rolling 293foot stoppies on flat-land with the scooter (stoppies on the faggio scooter are ) You can even 12 most of the bikes if your really gentle with it. I think i gotta pick up a copy of the old school 'road rash' game .
