Ok... well I brought this game last night lol

*has no self control*

Won the R6, Honda 600, ZX6R, Gixxer600 and Gixxer 750 amongst a bunch of other crap little bikes... won all 3 of the 1st races and all 3 of the second races...

Havn't tried my top speed on Deep Forest yet... but will post it once i give it a good effort

Flogged the game to death. Favourite PS2 game by far.

I would even go as far as saying I'm one of the best in the country at TT!

Here's some pics after I first started playing:

Good job...

I gave Deep Forrest a go last night... my times as follows:

Yamaha R6 (Street Bike): Best Lap: 1,25.8 (After 13 Laps)
Yamaha R1 (Street Bike): Best Lap: 1,25.6 (After 3 Laps)

I'll play with it a bit more on the R1 and see if I can beat 1,20.00

*loves this game*

I own MotoGP3 and found it quite hard and consequently lost interest quickly. The problem being that I have played a lot of Rally sims and am quite happy with drifting through corners sideways...Im guessing Im going to find the same thing with TT if I ever get it.

I know what you mean... but seriously... rent this game out and give it a go... I usually only play car racing games, and I brought Riding Spirits 2, and hated it. But this one is way better.

The graphics are good, great actually and the corners arn't too bad, just a matter of braking into them... I'm sure if you ride one of those motard bikes (dunno, buts its the 1st and 3rd picture of FlangMaster's post) They can drift a little around the corners lol

she rights skel, and if a girl can play it then i'm sure you can!

it takes a few goes to get a feel for the bike and I find the rider view by far the most realistic, it gets rid of some of the fucked up yawing movements and makes you feel like you ARE on the bike.

and I can do wheelies on it so it must be good.

Yeah was wondering about the motard thing (ie sliding sideways)...

I'll give Deep Forest a crack tonight. Question, is this on Arcade Mode or Tourist trophy mode?

Have you given the Nurburgring a crack? Quickest I've gone is around 7,35 which I thought was pretty respectable until I read on some U.S forum that these kids were clocking under 7 mins. I'm guessing they were using some mod or cheat because that seems impossible.

Why is the front wheel turning to the right in a right hand corner in the 2nd pic? Please tell me they got the concept of countersteering in this game right, if not through the controls at least in the replay.

**Mr. Peanut** · 5th October 2006, 21:44

Because im about to go left, see the biker beginning to shift his weight?

You can set rider movements and posture through certain parameters and choose from one of 3 riding styles. you can also define how tall you are. Well almost - I'm a few cm off their radar 193 is max.
