SBK08 is out!

Kamikuza · 07-17-2008, 07:07 PM

Sitting on my hdd waiting to be played

Hope it lives up to my expectations or I'm going back to SBK2001 and my TL-engined Bimota

gixxerjasen · 07-17-2008, 08:04 PM

Well?

Kamikuza · 07-17-2008, 09:26 PM

Some of us have to work for a living you know ...

and it's hard to peel myself away from Company of Heroes or Assassin's Creed ... Allah hu ackbar!

gixxerjasen · 07-17-2008, 09:57 PM

Oooh, Company of Heroes, where's that disk?

Kamikuza · 07-20-2008, 07:50 PM

Oh god ... it's like a cartoon abortion

I can do a stoppie and slide 6 feet to the left with the bike perpendicular to the direction of travel - and not fall off. Sigh, oh well ... back to 2001

mate im not all that impressed with it myself . Its not bad but not as good as ea sports superbike 2000 and 2001. i think moto gp 06 and 07 on xbox360 is way better then this myself. It just seems like the game is in slow mo

what do you think. I played it back to back with moto gp 06 yesterday and moto gp shits all over it. Take my word lads hire it out from your video shop and try it first before you buy like i did.

Kamikuza · 08-14-2008, 03:23 AM

I'm going to have another crack at it when I get home but ...

jon angelo · 08-19-2008, 12:47 PM

i got moto gp 07 for PS-2, and its the shit, just waiting for moto gp 08 on the ps-3 to come out before i buy a ps-3

*Cough* MotoGP2 Rules *Cough*

Malakai · 08-19-2008, 03:18 PM

I agree, it seems a bit weak. I stuck it on arcade settings and it seems more fun to play. I guess i need to get a few more hours in on a more difficult settings to be able to make an educated judgement. MotoGP 07 is still my fave tho

Anyone got either on 360 add me and we can have a blast at some time.

Kamikuza · 08-20-2008, 08:19 PM

Nope ... it still sucks

The reason I was so interested in 08 was cos 01 doesn't do cockpit view and widescreen so well - I can't see over the dash at full throttle

perhaps they modelled Jas as the rider

Kamikuza · 08-25-2008, 05:53 AM

You know, I'm so impressed with 01 that I might upload a disc image ... if you mount the image with software like Alcohol 120% it emulates the securom and you don't have to muck around with no-cd files that mess it up ... and it runs sweet on new machines!

MotoTiller · 08-25-2008, 09:20 PM

I'd check it out for sure if you did.

tl-d · 08-29-2008, 10:48 AM

best bike fun ive had gaming is pgr 4 on xbox 360. do all bike races with no nobs in cars knocking u off and its awesome

ZIRAS · 10-12-2008, 03:34 PM

Been playing SBK08 for a couple weeks now...the more your turn up the sims and turn down the traction control the more fun it gets. You can really hang it out sometimes. (still like the old XBOX motogp series better)

But the biggest frustration with this game is online play. It keeps dropping the host all the time and I'm not behind a firewall. (This is on PS3) Anyone else experiencing this issue?

Malakai · 10-12-2008, 04:19 PM

Wheres that iso kami? i wanna play

days · 10-13-2008, 03:54 AM

your not wrong mate. ive been playing it a fair bit the last few weeks. im starting to like it a lot more. the more you play with the settings the better it gets. ive been playing around with the chain slack and ride hight swing arm and it gets better the more you play it .still not as good as motogp 06/07 but im likeing it alot lot better then i did. now im just hanging out for MOTOGP 08. i seen it advertised last week it comes out on the 25th off this month. looks good to 125/250/800 all in the same game
