| Excellent review and a score indicative of the game.
Nailed the lack of decent bike physics as MotoGP should appeal to the "hardcore" fan and not the casual market! Casual gamers couldn't care less about motorcycling games, no matter how easy they might be to play.
It should be pointed out the gameplay problem lay with Capcom and not Monumental. Milestone made MotoGP '08, which was heavily based on the SBK 08 game, with dumbed down bike setup options and easier physics model (although simulation was just as hard as SBK '08). '08 sold in greater numbers than either of the Black Rock (aka Climax) made MotoGP '06 and '07 and Milestone got the boot and were replaced with Monumental who've made an even more arcade game and sales have been less than stellar.
Reading the comments on Capcom Europe and Capcom-Unity forums, it is clear most gamers aren't overly enamoured with '09/'10 - the developers fled to the easier going XBL Addicts forum.
Dorna should do to Capcom what Codemasters have been made to do by Bernie nand his F1 minions and that is make a decent GP simulation. |
