Super-Bikes Riding Challenge is a 2006 racing video game developed by Milestone for Windows and PlayStation 2.

A sequel, Suzuki Super-Bikes II: Riding Challenge, was released in 2006 for the PlayStation 2 by Valcon Games.[2][3][4] A Nintendo DS version was released in 2008.[5]

Gameplay

[edit]

Super-Bikes Riding Challenge is a game about motorcycle racing. The game includes a total of 40 bikes from manufacturers like Honda, Suzuki, Ducati, Triumph, Moto Guzzi, and Voxan. The tracks are a mix of fictitious and real-world locations like Valencia, Hockenheim, Laguna Seca and Donington Park.[6] The game has four game modes: free ride, trophies (tournament), career, and multiplayer.[7] The game doesn't feature damage modeling. The multiplayer mode allows racing by two people in a split-screen format. There is no internet or network playmode.[8][9]

Reception

[edit]

GamesRadar wrote in a preview: "Currently at around 90% finished, the game is playing very well, although the difficulty level does need some tweaking. The graphics are solid and very smooth and there were only a few instances where the bikes' behaviour didn't look entirely realistic."[20]

Eurogamer said the graphics aren't as good as in Tourist Trophy but the racing action is better.[6] 4Players compared the game negatively to Tourist Trophy and THQ's MotoGP.[9]
