I wasnt sure about this game and i blindly bought it not knowing if Id really enjoy it. It turns out that it is a very good game. It only takes a couple races to get the controls down, and the graphics are excellent. If youre not one for braking you may want to go the other direction though. It features a good number of licensed bikes but you start out with them all right off the bat so it takes away the point of competing for new ones. This is the games only downfall. Theres not enough to keep you going.

Best Motorcycle racing game ever

Wow. Great graphics. Great action. There's a steep learning curve though which some people may not like, but I LIKE my games to be challenging. There's a great bike selection and lots of hidden things to unlock. The replays are spectacular, it could easily be mistaken for a real race on TV. Great fun.

Lack of tracks

I was going to buy this way back when but I decided to rent it first. Beat the game in less than an hour. Not worth the cash. At least the Xbox version has online play.

just like those arcade games!

I'm sorry for those of you who like this game, but I thought it boring and hard to play. I thought that it was hard to control and confusing to follow. My recommendation to you as a buyer is to not purchase this game.

very fun

This game is very fun. It is a little hard to get used to controlling the bikes, but once you get the hang of it, it is quite easy. You can learn how to play the game in an hour or two, but it will take you a lot longer to master the game. There are many real bikes/riders like Kenny Roberts on the Suzuki RGV, or Mick Doohan on the Honda NSR500. There are also five real tracks like the Donnington Circuit and the Suzuka Circuit. I definately recommend this game if you like motorcycles, or if you just like racing games.

AWESOME 100%

I'm a big fan of motorcycle gp racing and after seeing this game I immediately picked it up. Moto Grand Prix has all the famous 500cc racers from the late 90's season; Mick Doohan, Max Biaggi, Norick Abe. The graphics are really done well. The colors are sharp and the graphics run very fast, utilizing the most from the P2 platform. Some aspects of the game could be improved. It would be nice if the game AI corresponded to each famous rider instead of all being just mindless racers. Another thing was that it was almost impossible to break or accelerate smoothly throughout the game. To make turns greater than 45 degrees, you almost always needed to come to a complete stop. One thing I liked was that you could tweak the chasis of your bike.Brakes, acceleration, handling all came to play if you want to win races. Playing a season also had the aspect of having contracts to ride one of the many factory or privateer bikes. A rewarding experience if you are a big fan of Motorcycle gp racing. You can ride with your gp heroes on factory bikes or try to win on an up and coming privateer bike. It is an enjoyable game that can only get better with the sequels...(They'll have to change the bikes to become 4 stroke 1000cc models for the next upcoming GP season.)

Most Realistic Motorcycle Roadracing Game Ever

If you are a motorcycle enthusiast, this game is for you. It is by far the most realistic moto roadracing game on developed thus far. The graphics are incredible! Wait til you watch the replay of your just completed race...it's so realistic it's scary. For those that are GP Racing fans...it doesn't get any better than this.

frustrating fun

Moto GP does an admirable job of balancing arcade and sim elements in a motorcycle racing game. This, however, will drive you mad- the learning curve is steep enough that arcade racing fans may give up on it, but at the same time, the adjustments that you make to tune your bike to the course don't seem to do anything at all. The graphics are GEORGEOUS. This is the first game I've ever played where I would actually sit through the replay mode. I've seen races on TV that didn't look this good. The tracks(only five of them!!) are very realistic, but don't be surprised when the AI bikes just ram you out of the way when they want to pass. Overall, I'd say this game was worth a rental.
