 too hard February 3, 2010
Sam Reich
I am an experienced gamer and motorcyclist. In simulation mode this game is too hard. On a bike in real life- you can feel it if you're about to lose it, and then correct. In Simulation mode- you just dump it with no warning. So this game lost my attention.
 Not as bad as they say January 20, 2010

Once you get a hang of it, this game is not that much different than the PS2 versions of it. I mean yes, I loved Namco's versions better than Capcom's but this game steals some Namco feel.
The real fun is online, and there are usually always people online.
If you love motogp and motorcycles, I would ignore the comment about "DONT.BUY.THIS.GAME."
That's so dramatic
 realistic and fun January 1, 2010

I think this game is the cat's meow. I am so glad I bought it. Multiple skill levels allows you to be in the race from the start and make it challenging as you learn the tracks. Superior graphics and sweet motorcycle sounds. I ride a motorcycle and have been to a MotoGP event and this is like being in the mix! Buy it.
Not like GT5P October 30, 2009
Claycrete (Los Angeles, CA)
Preface: For the first half-hour I hated the mechanics of MotoGP08, so what comes next assumes you can get past that first 30 minutes of learning how to get the bike to obey.
It's also not like GRID or Motorstorm or Burnout or DIRT.
So what is it like then?
Tomb Raider...
Like in Tomb Raider, and unlike in Motorstorm, I cared if I fell, because the
controlls and physics ARE tough, but learnable(unlike SBK's), and dare I say loveable? Where N4S Shift will steer and brake for you, and SBK will actively destabalize you into a wall>:( MotoGP will listen to just your inputs.
And now for some SBK bashing...
Oh SBK why do I so despise thee? is it your 60 second load times between every
screen, is it your painfully awful "music", is it how your bikes feel like they're
racing on a two foot wide track covered in ice?
Closing notes:
-No chicks in this game:(
-Has rain:>
-20 second load times:)
-SBK, aweful
-MotoGP, awesome.
-2 stars for fun? Burnout was "fun", Motorstorm was "fun",
MotoGP08 is intense, is demanding, will make your palms
sweat and knees tremble, I can't call that "fun".
Fantastic game ! August 20, 2009

I have MotoGP for the first Xbox and loved it for years.
When I got my PS3 this was the first game I looked for because I wanted to see the improved graphics. I am not disappointed.
I was surprised when I saw these reviews but as always I checked amazon.co.uk for more input.
There are more people who reviewed this game there and their attention span seem to be a bit longer.
Of course you can not drive this game perfect the first two times you try, that would make this game last 20 minutes before you got bored. The handling is great and actually more difficult than the Xbox version.
Even on easy level you can now fall off quick if you're not careful, that makes it more fun than if the bike acted like a pinball machine.
When you get more skilled it is very fun to accelerate out of a corner and at the same time look back so you can see the rubber getting stuck to the ground.
Because I've played it on the Xbox it is almost impossible NOT to win a race at the easy level for me, and when you get more skill and get to the advanced level this game will not let you win without driving almost perfect. As it should be.
I believe that this game will give me many hours of fun for years to come.
