MotoGP For PSP Goes Gold |
Ó
Namco Bandai today announced that its PSP version of the long-running motorcycle racing series MotoGP has finally gone gold and will be hitting stores on September 26. This marks the first (and hopefully not the last) time the popular motor sports game hits a handheld console. Aside from customized controls and graphics, this new installment brings with it a host of new features exclusively for the PSP. There's a new 2005 roster, unlockable rewards, and a wireless multiplayer mode that allows up to eight players to race against each other.
Drivers in MotoGP for the PSP include Valentino Rossi, Marco Melandri, Nicky Hayden, Troy Bayliss, Carlos Checa, Alex Barros, Shinya Nakano and others. Also, various additional game modes, riders, movies and more can be unlocked by completing certain challenges. This way, the game should provide hundreds of fun gaming hours and make itself a position on the already impressively big shelf of good PSP racing games.
MotoGP is released next Tuesday, so if you'll be buying it, feel free to leave your thoughts either in the comments section or in the forums.

this game suxx ,, its far to difficult to play on a psp
Ever one stop time waisting with you 1st n 2nd post....its getting old -_-
I LOVE MOTO GP! but im sorry to say i couldnt wait untill it came out so i got the iso in japanise BUT! i will buy it in england when it comes out n i just have to say SWICKED GAME!
Looking forward to this one!
same thing i say to all psp games...
nice graphics...wut about the gameplay?
i am very dissapointed in most psp games...except for untold legends and a few other ones
But I think i'll wait till it is a greatest hits release.
Moto GP on the PSP is amazing. Of course many of you are probably thinking of the MotoGP series by THQ, this is a port of MotoGP from Namco.
First off I'll say that the graphics are amazing. While taking turns the shoulder will reflect off the bike and leathers, and when driving off road the tires get dirty. Overall the presentation is great, and the ability to save your replays and share them is a really nice touch. I haven't found any character customization options yet, but I'm hoping for some.
One thing I know a lot of people are worried about, are controls. Since this is the series from Namco, the bike will seem very touchy to turning. The main difference between the THQ and Namco series is that in the Namco version at a complete stand still you can till your bike also 180° which makes turning a bit of a learning experience. But once you get the hang of it, its an amazingly fun and addictive game.
One thing that really bothers me, is that everyone complains about the PSPs controls and what not. I have never had a problem with my PSP, the D-Pad, or the Nub, and they do not hinder this game at all.
The only thing I wish the game had, was infrustructure mode but that's what XLink Kai is for.
My score if I had to give it one? Hmm....
8/10

But I want GTA: VCS. I gotta be savin' me money for PS3.
The graphics are extremely well done and the handling of the bikes are superb. Good to see it go Gold.
the MOTOGP series from NAMCO sucks. They are completely unrealistic. The graphics are ok. But come on this is not a motor sim. I mean with THQ you can use the front or rear brake. You can even strecth your back while braking, drift through the corners etc etc, that's what the MotoGP by Namco should have been. I have played it and after 3 minutes i quit. I put the xbox on, and put in MotoGP from THQ, et voila now we have a real sim.

15TH POST!!
for a MotoGP game for the PSP its pretty good
maybe not the most realistic , but hella fun
» GAME OWNS
if you want more realistic, bother to turn the 'SIM' option on.
as far as racing games go, this one kicks ass
best games for PSP are racing and this is one of the better.
and you have to turn the 'helmet view' on to properly enjoy it, not the fender/tire view.
play it a 333mhz, it looks much better :)
