Looks good - hopefully it'll be better than Riding Spirits or TT Superbikes LOL

It is a ps2 game, becuase the ps3 is not out.

(and who knows when it will make it to stores, all kinds of rumors about that)

April 4th is the official date I believe. AFAIK, it will only be a PS2 release. There is potential for a PSP release after Vision Gran Turismo comes out.

The developer is Polyphony who made the Gran Turismo series. This should set the standard for motorcycle games if their previous work is any indicator.

If there was ever such a thing as "free advertising" this is it. I'm sure Buell will get a boost in sales from folks playing this game. The average age of a "gamer" now is in the late twenties early thirties area. Besides, look at that computer rendering: Sweet!

Just think of all the fun we can have in the Tune-up Shop swapping zorsts'n'sh*t, spending virtual cash on virtual dyno time only to go out and be wasted by a bad (but stock) mf on a CBR1000RR LOL

Hopefully, they'll do as they've done in the GT series with race leagues. Maybe an aircooled series, or a 2 valve or pushrod series and a Buell only one too.

This is great! I've been looking for some decent motorcycle racing games on either XBOX or PS2....Guess I'll still have to wait a little longer. I haven't quite aquired my Halo 2 fix anyways.

Speaking of free advertising, Gran Turismo introduced North America to the Nissan Skyline.
BTW, there is a nice pic of the "race" version on the Japan site: http://www.playstation.jp/scej/title/tt/
Click bikes and scroll to the bottom.

Why would they DO that?

I wish I had access to the site from my work connection... Damn websense...

I've been waiting for that game for quite some time. I sure hope they get the control correct... like R2 for throttle, L2 for clutch, R1 for front brake, L1 for rear... I don't know where to put the shifting... I suppose if you put it on L3/R3 it would add that bit of instability while shifting that needs to be overcome on a real bike so that would probably work. Sounds like some VERY complex controls, but it seems to work just fine on a bike : ).

Up on the right stick for right, up on the left stick for left : ). I think that's the ONLY correct way to do it.

Anyway, I don't have ANY faith what so ever that they'll get the controls right and if they don't, it'll just be clunky and wierd. I'm sure they'll use the same control style that's used in Moto-GP 2...

In the GT series the controls have been adjustable so you can program whatever button to whatever control.

"use your rear break via the R2 button and make your rider hug the bike via L2."

If there is an 'EB Games' store near you, you can pre-order it. The store near me said March 27, but they have had Moto GP4 on backorder since Jan 1st.
What's up with the exhaust pipe?

Just the Japanese being presumptuous about the exhaust having to leave the rear of the bike.

I just bought a demo PS2 and 2 controllers last night at a Sam Goody that was going out of business for $35 just so I could buy this game. I can't wait!
