On my cumputer.
This is more than just a plain game, this is a simulation. I ride a ducati 900ss on track days and i can say that this game is realy well made. At the begening you can ajust the setting so at the begening it is easy to ride, set realistic mode and than you have to ride whit accuracy, you can slide the bike whit the throtle in curve, just turn the stick to the opposite of the curve like in real life! You can lock the front wheel. wheelie is possible but the bike are on close ratio racing transmission so it is a bit harder than street bike like in real. Stoppies are not possible. Playing championship mode is very very realistic. You can 'tried' to beat the best time lap indicate by real life record. You whil ear commentary whit the same voice at on tv! The graphic are excelent. If you whant just a game, there is many out there, if you whant a simulation that recreate to this days the closer to real life, this is the one. And after playing a while you gone to realise how good the real superbike racer are.

Just Like You're On the Bike!

This game is highly recommended, as it is the closest to the real thing that I've seen yet. It is also very inexpensive unlike many other games out there. If you like riding motorcycles, or just enjoy the sport, you have to get this game!

Whoops

That's exactly what I said after trying this game after purchasing it. The best part is the intro, which is the only reason I haven't traded it in, and I'm a bike racing fanatic. The graphics are poor, gameplay is totally unrealistic. Keep the throttle pinned throughout the lap, and the game slows down for you! Definitely looking forward to GP500 on the PS2.

Rent it just to see how bad it is.

This game takes all the fun out of motorcycling, especially the thrill of riding a Ducati superbike. I literally smile every time I hop on my 748 and fire up that L-twin. There is no sense of speed whatsoever in the game, and the sound and graphics are terrible, even for the dated platform. If EA had polled any sportbike riders, each would have agreed that they love the ability to "flick" their bike through turns and corners. All the bikes in this game feel heavy, and lack any character. Even as a sim for the hard-core superbike fiend, the game just does not pass muster. If I rode into a barrier going 130, the bike would disintegrate and I would be thrown several yards. The bike would not just bounce off the wall with a dull thud, and I would NOT be able to wheelie on. Wheelies are controllable in real life, but not so in this game -- once you hit that throttle, you're on one wheel. (Unlike GT2, there is no ability to control that throttle). I bought the game just because I love anything motorcycles, but this was perhaps the most disappointing game I've purchased to date. Motoracer World Tour is a much better racer, even though it is more arcade-oriented (and IT'S not that great of a game). EA, like so many other software developers, have released a game just for the sake of releasing it. Avoid this game.
