+1 I can't wait until MotoGP4 comes out. I like TT but its not very realistic acceleration is slow and the bike doesn't hold in the corners. Ride the factory 600RR and watch the speedo when you accelerate in 1st gear it tales forever to hit the limiter, but it passes the time on the sh*tty days. Not bad but it could be alot better

I heard that was made by the same moron that made granturismo... I dig his concept "simulation" but it has been know that the steering in his style games is really hard... IMO i dont think you can replicate motorcycle steering in a game itll never be realistic. Ill stick with motogp3

The steering is definitely tough but the challenge is cool. Trying to fly through the city courses is nuts. I love it for the graphics and realistic quality of the bikes alone. It's definitely got a leg up on other motorcycle simulators even though it's pretty tough. Takes a while to get the hang of it, but once I did, it's endless action.

I think they did about as well a job as you could re-creating the experience. I haven't been on a track but I've ridden bikes for a while and I find myself moving with the game as I'm playing it. You guys know how to wheelie?

Wheelie regaring the Tourist Trophy game? Pull your left thumb lever back while accelerating and modulate the throttle along with the stick lever. Stoppies = brake hard with the left lever pushed forward and you can stay nose down for yards...
No game will ever simulate the riding experience exceptionally well, but it was a good start despite using all the same tracks/roads that grand tourismo has...
Having ridden the Yami, Kwaka, GSXR 1K and currently on the Honda 1K - it is impressive that there is ANY difference. Not so much with the GSXR, but the Yami does quick turn better like the real deal compared to the others while the Honda picks up better in the turn and wind out when bringing her up right better. The revs are decently matched for the 1K versions, whereas the 6s are not as accurate as mentioned above. Decent graphics, but I'm waiting for the MOTOGP4 to come out this month, or was it next month on the 25th?
For those trying to "win" bikes by winning the championships - it's a whole lot easier going to the "Challenge" mode and selecting the manufacturer, then the bike and going head to head with another bike to put it in your so called garage or beating the lap records when it comes to choosing the race versions of your ride... I have no patience and chose this route to rack up all the manufactured bikes within a few hours. It's alot more fun picking your ride and choosing your race than accepting what the PS2 selects for you... Just get used to running a couple of tracks over and over again, and then you can go out and lay the smack down during the championships after you mod the bike with what little the game gives you. - minor exhaust with too many leather color/lid choices... needs better mod enhancements like tourismo had - blah!
Overall, it was a nice start to see your own bike on the screen and a good way to burn a few hours of rainy day syndrome - but always room for some improvement in many areas. But just how real could you ever make this simulation anyway.... grain of salt!
