Capcom again? Is that good or bad? It's been Climax the past two+ years, right?

[pickle.of.doom]

Yeah, I think its good. Climax didn't put anything in to development after the first year, because they knew they were dropping it. I think it will be good.


Looking forward to SBK 08 too, but I still can't get a clear answer out of stores around here whether they will be getting it or not.

NOOOOO.... I went to Gamestop right after i got off campus and went straight to the counter and said "MOTO GP 08 please". And he was like "uhhhh its not in yet it'll prolly be in tomorrow." I was like "noooo, it said available oct. 28!!!!" He said that that date is usually the ship date.... soooo misleading.

On the Capcom/Climax issue. I usually don't like capcom games, just too capcomy, but idk. I have Moto GP 06 with Rossi on the cover and all I can say is one thing. As long as the AI is fixed, i will be so unbelievably happy. I loathe it. It is like racing 20 brick walls! If you race them inside, YOU crash. If they race you inside, YOU crash. If you run into them, YOU crash. If they run into you, YOU crash. It makes me so fucking mad, i have honestly thrown the controller across the room multiple times. I mean its not that bad in the lower levels where you can just out brake them. But in the upper level where I am, where the AI actually pulls through the turns... you can't run your own line. You have to run a carbon copy of their line and not move out of the exit or be prepared to be fish tailed and "helecoptered" as I call it. I mean its to the point to where i cant play it because instead of being worried about runing perfect rails and catching the guys ahead of you, you have to play careful so that someone behind you doesnt take you out. Its just not racing when they are so emotionless that they have no regard for your position on the track.

The thing I am excited about is they got rid of that "extreme" mode. It was fun the first time around but it got overused. Now on the card 125 and 250 baby!!!!

Never played the SBK series, but it looks good. We will see if I have to make a purchase if Capcom lets me down this year...

If I can remember, the older capcom versions were alot more conducive to close racing. I know what you mean "Capcomy" (like almost comic bookish?), but I think this game will be pretty realistic sim wise. Looking forward to it though, I havent touched my 07 in quite a while and really just play cod4. I need something bike related again!


oh, btw im pickle of doom on the 360, I thought I was already on the list.

[DLIT]

I remember telling Pickle I topped most of his top times for most of the tracks. Next thing I know he's got me beat on all of 'em.

I'm glad to hear they added 125s and 250s. It'll be just like MotoGP3 for PS2 where you had to work your way up to GP level. I still have fun when playing the game. It'd be tight if a bunch of us on here picked it up and we had our own TWF races. Accidents off, of course.

i gotta 360 at the house now, motogp is on my to get list when i can find it-maybe this weekend

Never really played the older versions. But it's not like I play bumper cars with the bikes, i try to be careful. But i just hope the AI will now adjust to your line, like you would for them. How was the 07 version??? Didnt want to dump the money until i saw substantial changes, like this year. 08 graphically looks good tho.

You nailed "capcomy" on the head. I.E.- Lost Planet??? Ok game, but just not as good as GEARS which debued at the same time...

I picked up my 06 to get ready for 08 the other night, but i've been playing APF 08' since football started.

[pickle.of.doom]

Yeah DLIT, that ps2 version was the last capcom version I think.
