DUCATI - 90th Anniversary

DUCATI - 90th Anniversary

Not really sure what to say about this game. For a 2016 game, I personally believe this is a bad game. I need you to remember that this game is labeled as an official video game of the DUCATI motorbike company and therefore it represents the company itself in the video game industry. Right, here we go:

Career-wise, this game resembles the GRID series. You have event-races and the more gold medals you win, the more you progress in the story and unlock content. I liked the fact that they split the bikes into different decades. But it gets really repetitive after a while.

I have to admit that I’m having fun with this game so far. I also agree that in some ways, this should be a DLC for Ride 2 or Ride 3.

Two primary reasons I bought this. I’m a fan of Ducati bikes (I watch lots of MotoGP, Superbike, etc.) and then there was the gem of all gems. The Ducati 750 Paso.

Bikes look good, seem to ride pretty well and in general graphics are probably from MotoGP ‘15 and Ride 1 time period. I have MotoGP ‘15 and that’s what this game reminds me of in terms of how the graphics look, physics, AI and general overall feel. I don’t have Ride 1 to make that comparison.

Ducati World Championship

Ducati World Championship

Once in awhile comes an artist with a vision so distinct that it has the power to crystallise the voice of an entire generation. Artematica, creator of Ducati World Championship, is such an artist.

Ducati World Championship is a game that innovates the racing game genre. The gameplay is simple to comprehend yet truly shows and rewards mastery of the gameplay mechanics, with crisp and fluid controls to boot. The graphics, while seemingly outdated, provide a powerful and immersive asesthetic that makes the player feel as if they are actually in the game. The scenery is breathtaking in its simplistic beauty with vivid and evocative colours. The soundtrack is incredible with unique and ground-breaking orchestral pieces that truly inspire passion and wonder. The story is a gem not seen in videogames, period. The story maintains a realistic nature while exploring thought-provoking questions that have plagued society for ages, possibly since the dawn of man. The characters are relatable with interesting idiosyncrasies that truly make them seem real and relatable. Character development and depth is common theme throughout the story.

This game is not nearly as bad as everyone says. The handling takes some getting used to, the commentary is best when it’s turned off and the game is best played with a 360-pad along with the knowledge that the P-key brings up the in-game menu which you can use to exit or restart races.

The game has several modes, including a career mode, championship and a challenge mode. The championship is a pre-determined series of increasingly difficult races, the challenge mode tasks you with performing various timed trials such as wheelies. The most interesting mode however is the career mode, which has you competing in a variety of race types while working your way through several license classes.

MXGP 2019 - The Official Motocross Videogame

Sometimes I feel like I’m apologizing for this series.

Milestone Srl has a bit of a sordid history with these MXGP games being slightly polarizing, even to the niche audience they’re aimed at. Luckily, I don’t feel as though I’m saying this out of turn: This is the best I’ve seen the series thus far.

This is actually the fifth game in the series—not including the “Compact’ variants. Which serve as a sort of demo, I suppose. Not really sure about those. They also abandoned the traditional number naming system. Going from MXGP — 1, 2, 3 to PRO and 2019.

Good Game but a lot of the same problems as the previous titles. (reviewed 8/28/19)

Negatives:

– Multiplayer is very basic. No Lobbies . (only quick join and private) No option to choose which class you want to race against or how long the races are set for. They did add a voting for class but as you know 90% of the time people will choose MXGP. They added a mix surface for the voting which is nice but unfortunately as always the voting will be 90%+ Dry races. As the host you get zero options unless doing private.

TT Isle of Man Ride on the Edge 2

TT Isle of Man Ride on the Edge 2

It feels so good when you can make full laps around the TT without crashing, let alone “win” the Senior TT on the same bike you own in real life, or even break Peter Hickman’s time…You’ll have to play with the gearing and suspension later in the game when the parts are unlocked to squeeze out the performance where you need it.

I also have Ride 3 and MotoGP 20, but I have the most fun with this game.

Some things I think would put this game over the top:

1. Optional replay view (after race completion) from perspective of the people spectating on the side of the road as you pass by at 203 MPH or like the YouTube videos at least. Maybe keep your fastest stats per turn where even the Legends get nervous and show those replays of how you’ve been faster through that area or turn. I would even pay for this as DLC, since this isn’t actually crucial for the game to play. This feature could even allow friends to view on the sidelines as you’re racing and then notify you that someone was watching after the race - so not to distract you.

In short, this is a soul-like racing game. Forget about the sense of speed, the best of this game is the sense of danger!

In 3rd person view, you won’t feel the physics. You need to play it in 1st person view. Camera movement means bike physics and that also help you to learn every part of tracks then conquer every track.

all in all currently played 2 hours, had a bunch of fun.

I’m hoping for some lag fixes and keybind editing possibilities

Edit : since this comment , a bunch of stuff has been fixed : keyboard layout is now something you can change inthe settings, the lag has been fixed, loading times have been optimized, camera controls have been fixed (for working on the bikes, paint booth still is wonky)

disregard those in the cons !

Update: Feb 2021

Since the developers did a major revamp including a gazillion customised parts and colours I find playing the game tedious. No longer am I able to simply take parts off and on, paint them or build my own bike I find it extremely annoying having to memorise part numbers and colours. When I use to blaze through a repair now its a head beating against the wall experience that has ruined the fun for me. I did have fun with it initially but now I rarely play it.

I really enjoyed this game especially since I got rid of my own bike last year. This game is setup very similarly to other mechanic simulator games like CMS. Problematic parts are shown in red when it diagnostic mode and show as rusty in the regular view. Camera angles are pretty good. There are a few instances where you’ll select a part to re-assemble and the camera thrusts your viewpoint forward, past the area you are working in requiring a slight zoom-out or downward pan.

I’m going to attempt to give this game a fair unbiased review of my expereience in it so far. I’ve given it about 60 hours so far so that I could get familiar with it’s quirks, its yays and its nays…while i’m still having lots of fun, there are many issues that need to be resolved if the game is to be successful. I’ll try to update this review as patches, hopefully, come out.

Monster Energy Supercross - The Official Videos is the newest installment of motocross games made by Milestone Games. Race all the supercross replica tracks from the 2017 season againts all your favorite professional riders from the 250 class and the 450 class (Besides a few riders whose contracts won’t allow them in the game). In this review, I will list everything off with a “Good, Bad, and Ugly” format. (wuv u grant 3) I’d also like to point out that I have been playing motocross games since Motocross Madness 2. I’ve played all the MX vs ATV games (besides Supercross/Encore), all the MXGP games, MX Bikes, and I race MX Simulator professionally. Nonetheless I know my moto games. Let’s get into the review.

1. For someone who’s new to this game or jumping from MotoGP19 to MotoGP21 I have to say. You need to get used to with the controlling for a while. To handling is so slow and the braking is so inconsistent, you can lose the front wheel too easily while on the brake. I’ve played this game for a while and still don’t quite get used to the control of this game.

2. All the AI are unrealistic on how they’re riding. The AI difficulty is only make the AI faster or slower on the straight. They’re always crazy fast on the corner, no matter the AI difficulty you choose. You notice it more easily especially on the wet track. The AI seem to have more grip and be ridiculously fast on the corner and AI sometimes cutting through the grass to get the best lap time or to crash.

UPDATED REVIEW:

Ok so they finally fixed the Rain/Wet races. There are no 90% Wet/Rain races anymore.

But my Review still stays negative, the reasons are:

1.This game has some wrong Green areas in Valencia 1st corner and France last corner. Game invalidates lap if you exit track on area where REAL MotoGP riders exit track. As already mentioned, real MotoGP riders can freely touch outside track in Valencia 1st corner and can freely exit track on last corner in France, you wonder why? Because there are no Green areas present there, in MotoGP where Green track limit color is not placed you are allowed to exceed track limit.

If you’re too lazy to read: Refreshing gameplay, but bugs everywhere. Unlogic things and removed features.

Positive aspects:

  • Nice details like Rossi’s rituals

  • Stable game and good performance

  • PtP-multiplayer, but surprisingly smooth and bug-free

  • Refreshing gameplay, better physics, more difficult = bigger skill gap (bike feels heavier, front easier to lose, rear can break out)

  • More setup options available, but… (read last negative point)

  • Really sexy rider movements, especially when coming out of a corner

Oh Milestone, its always one step forward and two gigantic steps back. The tranistion into UE is welcome and makes the game look nice, but with the tradeoff of so many little graphical stutters. Now its not enough to detract from gameplay but it gets annoying. Also why in the world would you get rid of manager mode, to replace it with the “esports championship”. This is something I would expect 2 to 3 years ago but IMO completley unneccecary and unwelcome.

There are improvements in the campaign, the difficulty meter is actually really good, and helps a lot to get better at the game. We now have podium celebrations and three different winning celebrations! We have those but still no cooldown lap, so the immersion stops as soon as you cross the line. Same deal with Parc Ferme and podium celebrations. Great additions, but utterley useless in the way they were implemented. First person view takes some time to get used to, my only real complaint is you can’t move your head side to side. Good luck trying to see if someone is next to you in the corner.

Motorcycle Mechanic Simulator 2021

One would think that after making Car Mechanic 2018 and then coming out with the new version 2021 to fix the issues of the first one, would have taught you something, but no. You for some dumb reason started from scratch here and it has the same issues as the Car version of 2018, but worse! you have a home run in the Car version 2021, so do yourself a favor and make this Motorcycle one run like the 2021 Car version and you will have something here. The fact that I feel like I will get see sick from how it sways and glitches up, is just horrible. Not being able to use my game controller instead of just mouse and keyboard is stupid when I have the option and it works in Car 2021. I get you are a different developer, but same gaming company that makes the other, so just not sure why I have to hunt tiny bolts on screen instead of just being able to unscrew them all with the hold of a button like other game. Just a strain on the eyes and makes the game slow and crappy. I get it should feel like a new game, however the game play on the Car 2021 is just tops and should have crossed over to this one for easy of use and flow from other. I am not asking for a refund yet, waiting to see if you can fix this horrible game that should have been easy since you already made the car one that works. Get your stuff together before you lose customers. Thanks.

i think this game has a lot of potential and it teaches basic mechanics about motorcycles and i recommend this game for anyone wanting to learn a little bit about bikes and how they work, although from someone that rides and sometimes works on bikes i’d love to see a few things added as such:

a better way to drain oil as sucking it out isn’t that realistic as theres usually a drain bolt underneath the engine to drain the oil out.

adding oil filters to the engines.

adding fork protectors to protect the fork legs as seen on most dirtbikes.
