Excellent SIMULATOR

I love this game, though, as the makers say, it's more a simulator than a game. Takes a while to get good at, but it is very realistic, amazing graphics, fantastic selection of bikes (all the ones I wanted, anyway), and fun for me to race my son.

The Gift

I bought this game about two weeks ago, at first I wasn't too impress with the game as I couldn't stay on the bike so I decided to turn it into a show piece, well after today I have a COMPLETELY different opinion, the game is AWESOME. However it would have been much more appreciated if I could have Tune-up & Design (Graphics) my bike, also you should have had the option to increase the opponents as in Moto Racer.
Overall the Game got my approval and comes HIGHLY RECCOMMENDED.

Best Motorcycle Sim out there

the folks behind Gran Tourismo really got the motorcycle genre right in this one. It's a challenging trip through lots of modern and a few classic bikes from all the major japanese manufacturers and a few european ones. some fairly significant models seem to be missing, but there are some fascinating choices for what they did include. great graphics, great play engine, good 2-player mode, lots of good tracks.

Solid effort, but inconsistent

I had no doubt Polyphony Digital could create another great race game, even one with half the wheels of the others. But "Gran Turismo with bikes" this game really isn't. While there are many varying bikes to collect, you never get the sense you own your machine and can customize it how you choose. You don't actually buy bikes in TT, you win the right to use them by winning short challenges. Most of the challenges are stupidly easy; others are devilishly hard. The actual races aren't that much more exciting. Much like Gran Turismo, the opponents are robotic in their technique, making many races boring parades that aren't especially difficult to win. A rare crash will cost you hardly any time at all. What Tourist Trophy does right are its bikes, which all feel and sound different from one another. The scooters are surprisingly fun, the big 1000cc monsters can be unwieldy, and the 125cc-250cc bikes are just right. The graphics also hold up well, even as we're a couple of years into the new generation of hardware. I hope Tourist Trophy has life as a series on the PS3; it seems like one of those games that will be great in its sequel(s), if it's lucky enough to get that far. If you're into motorcycle racing games, you know that quantity has taken over quality on store shelves the past few years. Tourist Trophy's variety of rides and familiar tracks make it a worthy choice. Just don't expect quite the refinement of the Gran Turismo series.
