The long awaited official new MotoGP 07 Playstation 2 game is now available featuring all the riders, motorcycles, teams and tracks seen in the 2007 MotoGP season.

As the 2007 MotoGP season comes to an end with the final Valencia round, you'll have the ability to compete in the championship yourself, with options to compete in quick races, split-screen multiplayer, time attack and challenge modes.

MotoGP 07 is published by Capcom, but has been developed by games company Milestone, who ironically also produced the official 2007 World Superbike game, Superbikes 2007.

Game Summary

As an officially licensed MotoGP title, MotoGP 07 for the PlayStation 2 will feature all the riders, bikes, teams and tracks from the 2007 season. Players can faithfully re-create the excitement and passion of the sport and experience the rivalries and competition synonymous with the world’s premier motorcycling championship, as they ride for glory. Compete in a full season, create your own customised season, or select a one-off race either on your own or against a friend.

Whether gamers are new to the racing genre, fans of four-wheeled racers looking for a new challenge or veterans of motorcycle games, the diverse handling models of MotoGP 07 will allow players of varied skill levels to access and enjoy the adrenaline fuelled world of MotoGP. Features such as riding aids will provide newcomers to the series with the confidence to push their bikes to the limit. Experienced players will have the option to independently control front and rear brakes as well as the rider’s position, making them feel at one with their bike as they enter and exit the tightest of hairpins inches from the tarmac, before stepping on the gas to reach speeds of well over 200mph/320kph. Plus players can also adjust the AI of their race opponents, modifying speed and ability to match their own riding level and create a more balanced race.

Featuring a comprehensive set of 100 trials, each available at three difficulty levels, MotoGP 07’s Challenge Mode will test and hone players’ skills. Events include slalom challenges where players handling abilities are put to the test as they navigate a series of gates placed the length of the circuit and time trials which challenge players to beat the lap record for each circuit.

MotoGP 07 Features:
  • Riders and their bikes, teams and all 18 official tracks from the 2007 season faithfully and painstakingly re-created
  • Unique Game modes including - Championship / Quick race / Time Attack / Challenges/ Multiplayer
  • Selectable riding models to suit your skill-set and style
  • A variety of immersive and challenging opponent behavioural models to select depending on ability
  • Challenging weather effects
  • Accurate physics models based on real data
  • Motorbike sound-effects recorded from actual MotoGP bikes

So sales of the Playstation III aren't quite as dominating as Sony would have liked by the looks of it. I hope this game is less like a simulator and has more of an arcade feel to it. I know not everyone wants this, some like the exacting realism, but I like the mix of realism and arcade that games like Tourist Trophy offered.



forgotten pwd?
