The tweaks are slight, but not a whole lot needed fixing.

Other entries in the вЂњnew for вЂ™03' column: slightly rejiggered game modes (a Stunt mode replaces Arcade) an extra difficulty level three challenges on each track that, if completed, improve your rider and adjustable power-slide sensitivity.

It has six new tracks and an updated roster of cycles and drivers from the 2002 MotoGP season, but perhaps the most noticeable change is bikes that no longer sound like 180 mph weed whackers. If youвЂ™ve played THQвЂ™s previous MotoGP game-not to be confused with NamcoвЂ™s PS2 series bearing the same name-donвЂ™t expect any revelatory surprises from MotoGP 2. Against MGP2's flawless CPU riders this small nuisance becomes a big headache in a hurry, making the game worth the trouble only if patience is a virtue you possess in spades. It's like playing Ridge Racer without the powersliding. By substituting a single brake for true front and rears, Namco's made controlling your 'cycle doable, but not optimal. Unlike car racing games, with all their wanton powersliding, the easily flippable nature of 'cycles allows little room for error or improvisation in finding the perfect line, and because of a small, but significant oversight, finding that line is a teeth-gritting experience. What won't satisfy any gamer is the evil learning curve. Still, these are gripes only the anal would notice, and MGP2 actually features a wealth of modes and challenges diverse enough to satisfy any gamer. Likewise, the 500CC class (including riders and teams) is intact, but the 250 and 125CC classes are notably absent. Example: MotoGP 2 may double the number of tracks from the first game, but it still doesn't offer the full 16-track circuit of real GP racing. It's one of the better 'cycle games I've played, but it's hardly comprehensive. For years I have waited for a game that captures the spirit of two tires on tarmac, and while MGP2 comes close, it lacks the right stuff. Ever since I hopped on my first motorcycle (a 50CC Kawasaki) at the age of 9, bikes have been my true love.
