Moto GP 19 does not disappoint when it comes to licenses and content. We get the drivers, teams and courses for both the Moto GP series as well as several underlying divisions – and all the vehicles feels great to drive. All in all, it is an excellent game for fans of Moto GP, but if you do not mind racing with four wheels instead of two there are many better racing games to choose from.
Compared to the previous iteration of the franchise, MotoGP 19 improves everything, sometimes in a subtle way, others in a sensational way, becoming the new yardstick of the genre.
This game is really good compared with other bike's videogames market offers. It is plenty of new features and the overall feeling is very positive about new physics, gameplay and graphics.
If you are a great fan of Márquez, Rossi, Dovizioso, Lorenzo, Rins or Viñales, you won’t be disappointed (especially if you didn’t buy any of the previous games), as this is a game that can fight to be on the podium, but you need more speed to be a world champion in the racing genre.
With historical challenges, new sticker/
number/helmet decal editors and a brutal
Pro Career for the full experience, there’s
plenty to keep fans happy. But it isn’t doing
enough to appeal more widely
than that, and even its target
market will lament the technical
steps backwards from
MotoGP 17. [Issue#164, p.89]
A really really good game for motorsport and motorbike enthusiasts, the new customisation is a real plus and the bikes are very fun to ride and very rewarding once you have got a hang of them
Congrats to Milestone for creating the best ever AI in a racing game. No rubber banding and a realistic field with believable gaps appearing during the races. This added to bikes behaving very realistically on track (on a sufficient difficulty level)... Sim Racing studios out there pay attention! you have something to learn from Milestone. Handling and engine sounds are also top notch and very satisfying. A few very smart details in the HUD and presentation also should serve as example for the other racing titles ... such as the corners names and numbers appearing on screen or the very useful, informative and efficient engineer to help you create and understand setups. Tires degradation and temps seem to work realistically as well. Overall a great sim racing experience. Lower points include the graphics and level of details not up there and still rough around the edges and sadly running at 30fps.. colors are oversaturated in HDR. These can be excused by the excellence of the first points
Bought the game from PS Store due to a massive price reduction, however deleted the game only after an hour.
For someone unfamiliar with moto racing games, controls were extremely difficult, and I ended up falling from the bike every 10 seconds.
As moto racing is not as straightforward as your average Need for Speed, I would have expected some tutorial at the very least. Not only was it missing, but I had to figure out the controls myself.
Huge disappointment.
SummaryRemember when you were the king of the race? Old times: thanks to the Neural AI and to the Machine Learning, you’ll now face smarter, faster opponents who will exploit your mistakes. The challenge is about to get real.
