    Ultimately, it’s a niche title that won’t bring any new fans to the cycling table - and doesn’t even try to.

    The most famous Tour de France athlete, Lance Armstrong, is known for persevering through difficult challenges. But I doubt even he could make it very long with this game.

    I know a lot of people will have issues with this game, due to the fact for a lot of the time you do not do the cycling. However this is a strategy game, you have 5 riders some good in the mountains, some good down hill, and some sprint well. The best way to make sure your team does well is have them relay until you reach a segment that is there strong suit and have them attack. If you've watched the Tour at all this year you will like this game. If you haven't you may have a tough time with it.… Expand
