Moto GP: Two-wheeled heaven arrives on PlayStation 2

This game is stunning jaw-droppingly so. Yet it has a fight on its hands if its to get the recognition it deserves. Whits based on those things with two wheels Superbikes (500cc Superbikes to be precise) and we all know how mlove their motors. But put aside any four-wheel bias and youll rejoice at just how good this is.

As soon as you see Moto GPin action you just cant help but be gobsmacked by how good it looks. Gorgeous, solid

the verbal accolades could go on but the obvious point is that its easily the best-looking console racer to date. Andinclude Gran Turismo 1 & 2and Dreamcasts Ferrari 355 Challenge.Perfectly complementing the excellent visuals aeffects and fairly decent background tunes. Of course, as with all videogames with this kind of lush presentation, tquestion is does Moto GPsgameplay match its sensory excellence?

Indeed, it does. However, dont expect to jump on the saddle and immediately start carving up the corners like a pare no handbrake turns to get you out of trouble, neither can you take the inside line of a curve using the outside cbounce your motor around the bend (as car racers usually enable you to do), and drifting is strictly out of the quesis true to bike handling, requiring you to nail the racing line at the right speed if youre to master its tracks. Theresbut nothing like youll find in, say, Gran Turismo. But its not that difficult. It simply means you have to take a whileway the bikes handle. Once you do start nipping past the opposition with knee-scraping excellence, or deftly chuckleft and right while zipping through a chicane, the rush is unequalled in any serious racer weve played.

Another reason why the gameplays so exhilarating is that theres 21 rider on the track at all times in a competitivetwo-player), so theres always someone to overtake, which is what makes racing games thrilling in the first place
