All about game MotoGP 2
Namco is renowned for creating some of the most iconic video games in history, such as Tekken and Ridge Racer. Recently, they have also proven themselves to be quite capable when it comes to motorcycle racing games. In early 2001, Namco released MotoGP for PlayStation 2 to critical acclaim; this success prompted them to develop a sequel - MotoGP 2.
MotoGP 2 offers plenty of updates from the original game, with 10 genuine tracks faithfully recreated from real-life circuits. The graphics are notably improved with cleaner textures and reduced aliasing issues. Players can expect a steady learning curve while playing thanks to easy-to-learn controls and AI that doesn’t become too difficult until later stages of the game. Championship and Time Trial mode will also be available alongside an enhanced multiplayer mode which allows players to compete against each other locally or online in fast-paced races full of personal rivalries and strategic maneuvering.
Overall, Namco has successfully managed to capture the same excitement experienced by real life motorcycle racers within their own creation - Moto GP2 is certainly an impressive sequel worthy of attention even if you already own its predecessor!
