MotoGP 25
SCORE: 71
Part of my review process is to research a game and the past
interactions we have had with its franchise. MotoGP 25 caught my eye for
a couple of reasons. The last game in this franchise we reviewed was
MotoGP 22. There was a MotoGP 23, and MotoGP 24. Thing is there was no
physical copy versions of those games released in the United States of
America. I found Japanese physical copy versions, but not US. So we
passed on them.
I had some fun and some struggles when I live streamed MotoGP 25 on our
YouTube channel. First and foremost I put it into Arcade mode, and
eventually dropped the difficulty down to the lowest it would go. One of
two things happened when I played MotoGP 25. I got out into first place,
and stayed there. I wound up winning those races in MotoGP 25. There
were some hairy moments but I pulled it out.
The second kind of a race I had in MotoGP 25 was to crash a few times,
get into last place and stay there. I could never recover from it.
Sometimes the computer characters crashed me and were allowed to move
on. I was also penalized for cutting corners trying to play catch up. At
times cutting those corners caused me to crash. So a penalty and a
reset. Cutting that corner did not help did it.
At first I was annoyed with all of the practices and qualifying in
MotoGP 25. I then discovered where I could turn that off in a menu
screen. I personally prefer to just race. I do not want to practice, and
get all of those qualifying rounds done. It makes the tracks really
boring if you see too much of them.
I am impressed by the controls in MotoGP 25. I could really lean into
those turns and stay upright more often in MotoGP 25 than a lot of
motorcycle games I have played in the past. There are plenty of racers
to play with. There could be more race tracks in my opinion. I would
also love some easier race tracks at some point. I had to brake like
crazy to avoid crashing into walls in MotoGP 25.
