    It really is hard to imagine how games this good keep getting better and better, but they apparently are finding ways.

    It's an amazingly thoughtful upgrading of the finest motorcycling game series on the market, and with the addition of the Extreme mode, Climax and THQ have taken their stock standard GP sim and taken it into a realm of its own.

    A great racing title that offers a different playing experience compared to the four wheeled variety which most gamers are probably used to.

    A good game but certainly not as hardcore as the previous 2 titles in the series.

    I was a huge fan of the 1st Moto GP game as the controls were fluid, and the bike responded in a similar manner to a real bike. The second game was very similar to the first, but better. Moto GP 3 sucks harsh. Its more arcade style then PGR series, and it looks worse than the 2nd version. The engine sound effects are horribly off again, but rather than getting higher pitched with every gear, the pitch drops. How come THQ / Climax do not realize that the sound an engine makes has nothing to do with the bike's speed, but rather with RPM? And whats with the "clutch" not being engaged until 7000 RPM? this should only happen from a standing start, but not from a roll on. Cornering is lame in this game as well.....I should not be able to slam the breaks on in mid corner. In real life, the bike would stand right up, and go straight. Or it would low-side. I can say so much more about the short-comings of this game, but it is truly a waste of time. Im trading this in before I even log on an hour. My 05 R1 is waiting for me in the garage...… Expand
