In contrast to MXGP3, with MotoGP 17 Milestone created a complete racer with superb mechanics and a fantastic riding model that is as close to reality as a videogame can get.
MotoGP 17 is a step back from the variety of content that featured Valentino Rossi: The Game. Manager Career is a good news, but does not justify the purchase of this annual license.
Poorly coded game. The managerial side of the game is excellent, but, unfortunately, the AI and simulation part seem to be coded by people who have never watched MotoGP, or have ever ridden a motorcycle - or even a bike - at that.
Pros: well thought out career modes, good ways of distinguishing riders and bikes.
Cons: AI makes no sense - essentially increasing the difficulty of the game does nothing to improve the AI; instead it gives their engines, brakes and steering more power/stability, very inconsistent riding, AI faster in races than qualifying (soon the AI will get faster as their tire wear goes up)
Overall: a game that any seasoned racing gamer will probably pass on after the first few races.
SummaryPrepare yourself for the adrenaline of the 2017 MotoGP. Enjoy all the bikes, teams and tracks of the official Championship. Try the new Managerial Career mode and put yourself in the shoes of a team manager, trying to make the right choices both on the track and off it.
