MotoGP 09/10 Critic Reviews

If you don't have a big interest in bikes or MotoGP, this isn't for you. There's nothing here for casual bike fans or anyone who might be on the look out for something accessible in the bike racing genre. It's an incredibly solid package, though, and one that fans will get a lot out of.

That said, MotoGP 09/10 is a solid game, it plays well, it looks good and has everything contained in the one package that any fans of motorcycle racing will enjoy.

This is the best MotoGP game by far.

The great ideas present in MotoGP are a good foundation. However, the failure to develop them further is what keeps this game from greatness.

Capcom tries it again with better results, but there is still plenty of room for improvement.

MotoGP 09/10 is a solid, enjoyable racer that manages to capture the feel of charging about a track on a Superbike without being inaccessible to newcomers to the series.

A well-put together, if not very polished effort.

The last part wasn’t the best one in the franchise, but Monumental and Capcom are back with a nice arcade kind of racer on every great circuit in the world, completely licensed with all the drivers and motorcycles. You can play a lot of modes and off course a career mode, which is a great part of this new game. Later this year you will also get free downloadable content and that contains the 2010 season.

Moto GP 09/10 isn't the ultimate motorbike-racing real driving experience and it's probably a disappointing game for fans, but it still has three important powers: speed feeling, a complete roster of game modes and accessibility for newcomers.

MotoGP 09/10 is way more interesting than its predecessors. But even an interesting career mode and a good sense of speed can’t help the fact that some players might van the driving to be a bit unrealistic and the online multiplayer is sort off lacking.

You definitely know what you are getting into beforehand, and the improvements in this year’s version definitely make it worth the price of admission.

MotoGP 09/10 is a good example of a fun game with a few pronounced rough edges. These shortcomings shouldn’t put you off.

All in all, MotoGP 09/10 is a decent game. It’s somewhere in between sim and arcade racer, although arcade fans will like it a tad more. Sim fans won’t be completely satisfied, but whoever wants to race without knowing too much about all the details will definitely have fun with the game.

This is your only option if you love the sport and want a console version so it’s lucky that it’s an approachable, realistic and well-realised virtual representation.

It may not be a simulation but this is still an in-depth and hugely enjoyable racing game.

It's an average package, and there's little to draw in old or new fans who aren't willing to spend a good deal of time learning how to ride a bike again.

MotoGP 09/10 is definitely worth buying if you are looking for a fun motorcycle racing title. But for the serious motorcycle enthusiasts it's better to wait and see what SBK X will offer.

If the intention was to create a good arcade racer, MotoGP 09/10 seems to be an almost successful attempt. The game offers plenty of modes, but loses all the realism of the previous episode.

There's a great sense of speed and handling when ridning Monumental Games steel horses, but some of the game modes are a bit too boring.

If you are interested in a MotoGP game, this is undoubtedly the best option in the market.
