This game is the 4th of the series, I have already played the 2nd and 3rd, and loved them, so I decided to buy this one. Like the previous releases, this game is accurate as far as MotoGP tracks and Teams go, and it's a pleasure to be able to play the riders you root for in real life. The new features : -Online Play- haven't tried it. -Addition of the 125 and 250cc classes, a good way to learn the ropes on smaller displacement machines. -16 official tracks. -Compete and earn GP points to upgrade your bike, and unlocks bonus stuff (riders, tracks, parts, bikes etc...). -Also the 'cockpit view' has been replaced by an 'inside helmet' view that is pretty awesome (you even have to wipe the shield from time to time) but although it adds to the game's realism, it's harder to see, I wish they had kept the cockpit view as well. The game menu is clear and easy to navigate and loading is average (a little faster than MotoGP'08). Game options let you personalize the game to your liking. As usual, you can ride with or w/o assistance, depending on your skills. The Arcade mode is still one of the best out there to have fun immediately on the track/bike of your choice. Graphics are good, still not up to the level of Polyphony's Tourist Trophy in my opinion, but on par (a tiny bit flashier colors but a tiny bit less smoother edges) with Capcom's MotoGP'08 (now the Official MotoGP game). Handling is very good. A little easier than MotoGP'08, the bike doesn't loose grip as easily here, which is not a bad thing since it can really discourage players when they crash all the time. The bikes all have a slightly different handling but it's not too pronounced so you can race two different bikes in the same categories and still have a chance at beating each-other. Briefly I would say it's a GREAT game for the money and if you want to play the '06 season when Nicky Hayden beat the best riders of the World and nags the Championship: here's your game. Kudos Mr.Hayden!Read full review
Exceptional game play, and immersive.

I bought this game because I am a amature Sportbike racer. I was told this game is as close as you can come to actually riding the real thing. I can honestly say this game is the closest that I have ever played to this day. It has extremely realistic graphics as well as response times. The only down fall as far as I am concerned, is that you can not do Endovers, stoppies or burnouts. But all in all this is a great game.
I RENTED THIS GAME FOR A WEEK & FOUND IT TO BE AS EXCITING AS GP3 , BUT WITH NEW TRACKS , RIDERS & BIKES . THIS VERSION I WAS ABLE TO DO ENDOVERS / ENDO'S ALONG WITH VICTORY BURNOUTS W / SOME PRACTICE . A KEEPER ! THE GAME BOX PICTURE WAS DIFFERENT THAN WHAT IS SHOWN HERE. I tried Gran Tourismo's bikes called Tourist Trophy & it bites compared to this game .
i love this game--the price was right--the game was hard to play at first--i got the hang of it--than i started wining races--i think that i will buy more games of this type--i would ride my motorcycle everyday--until i had my accident--december 15 2004--it has change my life forever race
