TT Isle of Man: Ride on the Edge Critic Reviews

Realistic and exhilarating, TT Isle of Man lets you experience the rush of speed and danger without the risk of falling off the ramp. We can't guarantee your gamepad is safe, though.

An unexpected gem.

This game has amazing graphics, but it has been created for a very specific kind of public. It lacks content and the physics of TT Isle of Man are not good enough for the ones that we see nowadays.

TT Isle of Man: Ride on the Edge aims to the pure sports simulation, at the price of some compromises and of little variety.​

It is a pity that the alarming lack of content tarnishes the great gameplay and graphics of the new Kylotonn game.

TT Isle of Man is a good motorcycle racing game, realistic and very demanding. As long as you are completely in love with the legendary Isle of Man, it can even become a must.

The basics are there.

TT Isle The Man is, today, the best choice for motorbike lovers. It offers a sense of realism found in few games and the recreation of the 61 kilometer circuit is the best that has been done in the world of speed simulation in recent times.

TT Isle of Man: Ride On The Edge is a definitive race around a legendary and lethal track, one that captures the thrill and joy of two-wheeled power unleashed with a satisfying and strapping sense of speed. A pity then, that the rest of the supporting architecture doesn’t measure up.

A disappointment for the fans of the genre, especially for those looking for a realistic take of the motorcycling sport.

The core gameplay is very good and enjoyable, but the lack of content prevents it from being something bigger.

Eventually, the good ideas offered are not enough to promote this racing game. However they are enough to let us say that TT Isle of Man: Ride On The Edge is not a bad game, not at all. It is rather a wasted opportunity, for the value and the resonance of the license to which it's bounded as well as for the strong, and felt, need to have a valid and complete motorcycle racing game in the videogame panorama.

If you were to boil TT Isle of Man: Ride on the Edge down to its essence, it does a fantastic job of recreating the storied event in fantastic detail. The sheer sense of speed it engenders is an achievement in and of itself. However, the mediocre variety, lack of replayability, and need for more polish derail an otherwise interesting experience. Only the hardcore should saddle up for this ride.

This is a convincing excursion on one of the most difficult and challenging motorcycle tracks in the world. But as a game it shows a serious lack of content and would significantly improve with a decent career mode.

There are moments where this game hits it stride as you ride in concentrated silence. Clean laps and new records are accompanied with a great sense of satisfaction. It's a pity the riding model and animation contain some omissions that limit your ability to read the bike under you. The environments are greatly detailed and the sensation of speed is fantastic. I wish this felt more comprehensive as a package and the AI was smarter but there's an enjoyable core to TT Isle of Man – Ride on the Edge.

TT Isle of Man is quite a niche racing game. Although it should be a must buy for the motorbikes aficionados it should also be mentioned that it’s hardcore difficulty level and limited content could discourage the less enthusiasts.

A lonely affair which is best described as unremarkable. Although the game certainly looks the part, the game is lacking in the sound, the AI and rider mode departments. The multiplayer hardly has any online competitors even though the game has officially been released last week. If you love motorcycles there is surely some fun to be had in perfecting your lap times but at the steep price, you have to really, really dig motorcycles.

TT Isle of Man: Ride on the Edge is a good motorbike game for easy access for those who wish to jump in and begin driving without having such a steep learning curve. While mastering each of the bikes and learning their unique quirks takes more time, they are quite fun to figure out and sometimes frustrating, as well.

The ambitious mission to recreate the Isle Of Man is successful, but lacks in delivering content to keep you coming back.

Containing an impressive adaptation of the Isle of Man's Snaefell Mountain Course, TT Isle of Man Racing: Ride on the Edge will be attractive to motorcycle nuts looking for a new experience. But its high asking price, repetitive career mode, and lack of any online community means that everyone else can simply pass this by.
