Video Game Reviews of Tourist Trophy
Customer Review: The enthusiasts choice.
Summary: 5 Stars
At the recommendation of the excellent British motorcycle publication Bike, I picked up a copy of this game. Which also required the acquisition of a playstation 2. One $50 ebay auction later, and I was playing. Let me preface this review by saying that I haven't had a video game system since the original Nintendo when I was a kid. Man, have video games come a long way since Super Mario Brothers!
All I can say about Tourist Trophy is that it is spectacular! This game was developed by the same folks who put out the Gran Turismo series, and the considerable amount of time they've clearly spent developing this game really shows through.
First, the game is unlike Moto racing games of the past. This game includes dozens of real street bikes - from the most current race replicas, to historically significant models from the past. The bikes are reproduced in intricate detail, they look EXACTLY like the real street bikes. Whatever your favorite sportbike, it's in here. Hayabusas, Gixxer 6,750,1000's, CBR's, Ninja's, Ducati's, MV Agusta's, there's even BMW's for those weird BMW people. There's also equipment, Dainese racing suits, Arai helmets, Sidi boots!
They've got well known international tracks, Suzuka, Laguna Seca, Indianapolis, etc., tons of races, skills practicing, instant replays (so cool), and you can even print out a picture!
The controls take a little getting used to, but I've only put in about 4 hours on the game, and I've already won all the 600 bikes from the big 4, and the Gix 750. If you ride, you'll pick up the feedback and handling properties very quickly - they're about as accurate as you're likely to find on a motorcycle simulator anywhere.
All non-riders should be aware that this game has been designed for maximum reality and the bikes in it will behave as they would on the street or track, not as might be expected from a video game. If you blow your line, and come in to a turn with too much speed, you'll end up in the grass - just like in real life.
This game is perfect for the sportbike fanatic. Even non video game playing bikers will love it. Perfect for the colder months of the off season, and for those who are on a first name basis with the traffic court clerk.
