Default MotoGP3 for PC & Xbox (funny review bit)

So, both PC and Xbox version of MotoGP3 is hitting the streets as we speak. I've got mine ordered.

Regardless, I was reading MotoGP3 PC version review on gamespot ( http://www.gamespot.com/pc/driving/m...w_6131347.html ) and encuontered following paragraph:

Quote:
On the other hand, the Hungarian course, which runs through the streets of Prague, echoes the sharp turns and stop-and-start variety of Hungary's Brno circuit.
I felt it was my duty to email the editor and remind him that both Prague and Brno are in Czech Republic and not in Hungary.

I know im chiming in very late, but I actually think this is an incredible game. If you're used to the ps2 versions, then there is a learning curve involved, but it is far more realistic (as realistic as a video game can be). The extra features and unlockable videos are an added bonus.

My only gripe is it's so easy to crash when other riders are close to you. Otherwise, very enjoyable game.

Nope, I'm not kidding. The xbox version IS far more realistic then the ps2 version. In the ps2 version, you can hammer away at your hearts content while leaned over and nothing happens. In the xbox version, you'll highside. Same if you're sloppy with the brakes.

Also, I was doing lap times 10-15 seconds faster then the real life gp guys on the xbox. Like I said, as realistic as a video game can be, but far more then the ps2 version.

I don't have any of the video game consoles, but I remember playing MotoGP on a PS2 with a friend and I swear I was highsiding all over the place.


Maybe there is a setting to make it more "realistic"?

not the ps2 version.. the front wheel is the pivot in that game. And you can kick out the rear by sliding on throttle.

If you go past a certain degree you highside. Once you learn where that is, you can dial-a-slide as much as you want and avoid all highsides.

Default moto gp 3

It sux, Moto GP 2 is better but that's not saying much. Road Rash 3D is more realistic.
