   Just to give a little background. I have been riding motorcycles since the mid-80's. I currently ride a Ducati Monster. I watch & have watched all forms of motorcycle racing including MotoGP religiously since before it was called 'MotoGP'. I have purchased just about every game ever made on the subject since the days of the Sega Master System and Nintendo. I say all of this to let you know that I am not some kid picking up this game as 'just another racing game'. Here are a few points I would like to highlight:
   1. If you don't ride motorcycles or at least have an interest in them, this is not the game for you.
   2. Anyone rating this game below an 8? See point #1.
   3. While not perfect, this is the best motorcycle based game ever made. Add in more bikes from the 60s-80s and you would actually be getting closer to a perfect score.
   4. The physics of the game are outstanding and the best yet.
   5. Graphics are not on par with Forza, but they are nevertheless fantastic...again, best yet for a motorcycle game.
   6. Customizations are very good...but I personally would like to be able to put a Yosh on a Honda...a Muzzy on a Kawi...etc.
   
   All in all, this game is fantastic if you have a love for two wheels. Is it really a 10? No...that's just to counter the morons who would give this game anything below an 8.… Expand

   I loved playing Ride 2 on pc, but was not sure if this would look good on ps4.

And the best thing about this massive game is the feeling when you finally master the controls and the bike. Tracks are beautiful, and there are many (try Imatranajot, my favourite).… Expand

   I've been playing Milestone games for a few years now and although this developer has had a rough few years, I'm pleased to say that it's off on the right foot. With the success of Ride 2 there was much anticipation for this entry and it was worth the wait. Ride 3 is a great step in the ride direction for Milestone. With the step up from their in-house engine to Unreal, this game has seen a boost in both graphics and physics. As of right now, the game features a total of 230 bikes, though many of them are a repeat from previous installments. One of my biggest pet-peeve is that there aren't any 2018 models and very few 2017's. I love Ducati and I'm pleased with the beefy roster but when it comes to MV Agusta, which I also love, the choices are lackluster and a copy and paste of Ride 1, with a couple new additions.
   
   The rider customization has been vamped up as well. Though the facial animation remains somewhat awkward and at times scary. There's a vast option of helmets, leathers, gloves etc. I would like to see a helmet editor in the next series. They did add bike editor and it is pretty sweet.
   
   Ride 3 has all the potential to be the best bike simulator as there are no other competitors. I hope Milestone makes it become the Forza or Gran Turismo of bikes as there is so much potential in this game!… Expand

   In general the game looks fantastic. Menus and all the additional stuff is really well done and no effort has been saved in that sector. ButIn general the game looks fantastic. Menus and all the additional stuff is really well done and no effort has been saved in that sector. But the most important thing, riding the bike... horrible. If real life bikes would behave anything like this and if driving would be even close this hard I wouldn't even consider actually riding them myself. I suspect no-one in the development team is actually a rider themselves. For example, at higher speeds, you don't actually visibly _turn_ handlebars in the direction of the corner, but that's what you do in this game. I suggest the dev team would go and try out the Isle of Man TT game for the PS4 and learn how the bike handling is decently transferred into an enjoyable and believable simulation.… Expand

   lots of bikes to buy, upgrade, paint and customize.

   Cons:
   
   Everything else. Atrocious physics, Feels absolutely nothing like riding a bike. There's no difference between dry and wet track, even in heavy rain you can just throw your bike into a turn with a knee to the ground and smashing into the brakes.
   
   Horrific performance on ps4 pro, given that the graphics look from a game of 3 years ago, you'd expect at least a smooth experience, but try moving around the camera in a race and enjoy your 20 fps
   
   Non-existant AI, they just shoot off the grid and ride on tracks all race on fixed pace, while completely ignoring (and crashing into) you. Since you start every race from 8th position (there's no qualifying), it just becomes ridicolous after a while. Lowering the AI difficulty slider seems to make no difference at all on the AI riders.
   
   Lack of options to make the game at least playable (for example minimap zoom in order to make the track minimap useful as it basically shows 15 metres of track in front and behind you, or an option to remove the camera bobbing as correcting your trajectory in a turn makes you sea-sick)
   
   You literally have to buy the DLCs to win races in career mode, as in the starting races the A.I rides DLC bikes that goes faster than the bikes you can buy (even when upgraded to the max). So you have for example this race starting in the nordschleife final straight where you just watch the AI DLC bikes doing 30 kmh more than your maxed up triumph street twin.
   
   The tracks feel quite lack-luster as many are missing a lot of surrounding scenery, and many tracks have sections that do not resemble their real counterpart (even if you just compare them to tracks in game that have tracks laser scanned like forza)
   
   I give the game a 1 only because it's fun to buy and customize the bikes and rider, everything else is really horrendous.… Expand
