this is a great game, but since it's so old and more racing games have come out, it's been left behind. Rent it if the racing game you've been looking for is not in, and from there, you make the choice of buying it.

awesome

Buy this game! It is probably the coolest racing game for PlayStation ever and is SOO cheap. It is really fun and challenging. I enjoyed the selection of so many racers, but usually I stuck to one racer the bulk of the time I had it. That racer was Miko. I feel you should do the same in picking one main racer as you get better once you learn how to control your racer. I won so many JetMoto championships with Miko. I think you should buy this game over the sequel, as the sequels (especially 2) are kind of dumb and almost easier to win.

Great game, cool soundtrack, too

This game is awesome. This was my first Playstation game. The brand names such as Mountain Dew are a very nice touch. The courses are challenging, but not so much that it gets to be too hard to play. There's lots of jumps, and on these jumps you can execute various freestyle maneuvers and get extra points for it, as well! Even if you get tired of this game after a few months, the Soundtrack is excellent. It plays the background music from each of the courses. Just pop it in a CD player (other than your Playstation, o course) and jam on!

this game is cool and fun but quickly gets boring it needs more features besides turbo speed It could use some more tracks and veichals.There are some good codes that make it interesting but mostly stunk. But check out the sequl its better.

What is everyones problem? This game is not hard...in fact its too easy! Ive beaten it with at least half the people on the master setting getting first place in every race on the master setting with chein, gunner, and miko. I mean cmon at least pu some effort into it. If you think this is hard your gonna die playing Jet Moto 2. This game is really great though. And dont whine about there not being computer opponents in the 2 player mode because if you beat it on the master setting with nine players then a code gives you this setting. In fact all the codes are great except the show off cameras and ice racing. I would definately buy this game, even if its old, its great cheap fun. I have over 40 playstation games and this one is among the best (the best i own is Castlevania SOTN) which slaughters Metal gear Solid. Buy Jet Moto now.

The game is really easy if you pick one of the light bikes, and you have to work at it for a while. If you have trouble don't enter the codes, because if you enter the codes you won't get any better. Once you get good at the game use the heavy bikes and try to finish well with them.

This game is challenging! I still haven't got it yet though I'm ordering it from the internet. Anyway, I know this game is challenging because my friend has it. I love this game! I usually pick, "The Max" for the game. Anyway, I'm so obsessed with this game. There's no calming me down. The tracks and racers are awsome! If your a racing fan. Come buy this game now!

This is the game that got me through medical school. I still play from time to time and definately when old friends get together. The physics is fantastic. The strategy is to maximize your inertia. Turbo on long straightaways. Turn as little as possible. Of course you do have to turn quite a bit. Once you have won the season you get to do stunt races, where certain stunts recharge your boost. After mastering the game it is still fun to try and race for times (whole course under 30 min is good) or race against a friend. The sequal JM # 3 is also great, JM #2 I was never crzy about but it looks cool for ps1 graphics.

The JetMoto Review

Just as a little history lesson JetMoto is made by the same people who made the first two Twisted Metal games and Twisted Metal Black. If that is not reason enough to get this game I will give you some more. For anti-gravity racing fans out there buying JetMoto is an easy decision to make, but for all you other gamers JetMoto is a very challenging game to play, it will definitely test you to your limits. Like Wipout, JetMoto is a futuristic racing game but with a twist. The twist is, what makes it different from Wipeout, it is a mix between anti-gravity racing and MotoCross. The graphics, soundtrack, animations, and soundeffects pull you into the game and never let go.

The graphics in this game are very good for the PS1. The texture maps, water splashes, sand effects, and the waves add to the experience. If you have a PS2 you can smooth the graphics out and make them look even better.

Soundtrack: Now this soundtrack is one of the best I have ever heard, right up there with Wipeout's. The music is exciting and beautifully reflects the environments of each course.

Animations: As you race through each track taking tight turns, you can feel the weight of the craft as your rider pulls on it to just make that turn. And when you get some big air it feels like the rider is actually flying through the air.

Soundeffects: The soundeffects are equally superb. The sound of the jetmoto makes you believe that your really racing on a anti-gravity bike. The water slashes, solid landing sound, turbo boosts are all done extremly well.

Now for the one thing I did not mention above, the controls. If you have played Wipout then you are ready to play JetMoto. If you have never played Wipeout JetMoto's controls are overall good, become difficult in the tight courses.

I'll give you some advise, MASTER THE GRAPPLING HOOK! Some of the tracks are frustratingly hard and if it becomes a little too much to bare go to this web site for cheat codes.(www.ign.com) Despite its few short comings JetMoto is one of the best anti-gravity racing games I have ever played and definetely worth the your money.
