Moto GP 07 or 08?

JoJoYZF · 09-22-2009, 06:30 PM

I finally went ahead and bought a xbox 360 today and cant decide which moto gp game I want. It seems like 07 got better reviews, but 08 has the indy track and I like having the newest version game thats available when I buy it. Anyone played both? Which would you recommend?

Both blow. lol. COD4, left4dead, Halo 3, and ODST are all that you need.

the 08' is better of the two but the graphics are still sucky...

I still do enjoy playing Tourist Trophy and riding the 2 smokers...

Not sure if i like 07 better or if i've just played it more, not a big fan of the indy track either way...like mentioned above, do you have tourist trophy? probably still my favorite(but i can ride my exact bike, color and all on it)

Yep, Tourist Throphy has a big selection of bikes from scooters to race bikes.

Even has my bike on there, however riding wheelies are alot easier in real life than on the game. But like I said I prefer to race the 2 smokers.

i heard sbk 09 was supposed to be the best of the current motorcycle games. Havent bought it yet so i couldnt say

Get 08. It is a much better game than the previous 2 games, and it adds 250 and 125GP instead of that crappy Extreme mode. I actually have more fun racing 125 than the big boys. You can actually now control what the rear end does, effectively use a powerslide and save yourself from lowsiding from a happy trigger finger. Graphics are on par, but not super. Physics are pretty good, and it adds a rider ability mode to the normal difficulty mode... so you have means of fine tuning your skills and the computer AI.

Overall its a quick fix, but I cant wait for the 10 version. They are skipping the 09 version and releasing the 10 game in the spring where it should be with the start of the next GP season.

I've played tourist trophy a few times but isn't that only on ps2?

And ill probably go with 08 unless sbk is that good.

Neither...they both blow ass.

The only decent bike game I've found for a gaming console is Tourist Trophy for the PS2...the physics in that game feel almost "right."

Both MotoGP games have arcade like physics...utter shit.
