MotoGP URT 3

As we all learned from watching Chappelle's Show, keeping it real can have its disadvantages. Take this motorcycle racing simulation. MotoGP showcases the real riders and tracks from the pro circuit, as well as their actual bikes, complete with authentic handling, physics, and engine sounds. It also features the actual Grand Prix racecourses, closed street races, and online competition. To top it all off, the game's graphics look broadcast-quality. But while professional bikers and the people who love them will praise MotoGP 3 as the ultimate ride, anyone whose last bike had handlebar streamers will crash and burn. All the realism makes it hard to take a corner without falling on your ass (which, of course, looks painfully realistic), while the whiny, droning wail of the engines, albeit authentic, will eventually drive you, your girlfriend, and your girlfriend's half of the rent, far, far away.
