    RIDE fills an important gap in the world of videogames, with passion and courage. Despite some flaws, the new IP of Milestone has a bright future.

    The Italian studio Milestone has developed many bike racing simulations like SBK, MotoGP or MXGP in the last years, but Ride takes a different route and is based on amateur motorbike racing. So it is possible to race on closed traffic roads and some famous GP-courses with over one hundred street bikes. Ride is a good game with nice physics, but unfortunately the sound is weak and there are a lot of bugs.

    Ride is a good racing game, with an excellent driving model. The career is a little outdated, at least in 2015, and there are some technical issues, but overall it's a great experience for all the bikers out there.

    DO NOT SUPPORT THESE IMPUDENT HACK-WORKERS WITH MONEY! You can buy their game - and as a result you will be not able to play! After demo wasDO NOT SUPPORT THESE IMPUDENT HACK-WORKERS WITH MONEY! You can buy their game - and as a result you will be not able to play! After demo was released, I send them message mentioning the fact THEIR GAME DONT SAVE WHEEL SETTINGS for Logitech Driving Force GT. But they, first of all, NEVER ANSWER SUPPORT REQUESTS, like it was in WRC series, too. Althought they send me 8 letters about game release. And, second, in this final version nothing changed: you absolutly cannot play with wheel. At each launch game set new random keys, never wheel and pedals work. It simply unbelieveable. In WRC there were also great problems with wheel, but there at least it was possible to go. This game is totally dead. Full Review »

    This is actually a fairly decent game.

    This is actually a fairly decent game.

    You will need a 'fairly decent' graphics card. Be prepared for your card to heat up because man it will.

    Word of warning - if you set the track detail too high, your frame rate WILL suffer. So keep that **** down low.

    The graphics on the bikes are ace -the customization options, though limited, are there - which is a nice little touch - but it could do with a little more in that department. I don't want, for instance, a bike with 111 being the only number I can have on it - I would have liked to have seen options to customize the farings instead of just having the minimal manufacturer's obligatory model vinyl on it.

    The bikes in general look pretty damn good. Nice attention to detail - well researched, the history of Honda, for instance, is an interesting read and you can read all about it - if you wanted to - on this game - along with probably the history of Ducati, my personal favourite the British Triumph (I always liked the Daytona), and so on and so forth.

    The career is okay, it's nothing to write home about. It seems a little limited in courses and course options, but despite that, it is still a fairly reasonable collection of courses to be getting on with.
    The only problem I'd have with this is with the drag racing. It just doesn't seem to fit this game all that well, and to be honest, it looks like they tore a page out of the Need For Speed series with that old gem.

    Camera views in racing are actually fairly decent - although not being able to see the wing mirrors on straights without having to get to an upright position on the bike you're on is a bit of a pain in the butt.
    It would have been nice to have the same views available in replay as well as during the race though.
    The music for this game is arguably the best thing about the game - whoever is responsible for it is a friggin' chillout genius, some of the music on the menu screens is so relaxing and 'out there' that it knocked my four month old daughter out for several hours. Anyone who can put music together that sends my kid off to sleep for hours on end gets my vote. So good stuff on that one.
    Failing that, it's not actually all that bad.

The motorbikes looking great, minimum system requirements fairly low, and it supports TURKISH! The narrater speaks in a lovely clear tone and explains the game in a beatiful way. Gameplay is also sufficently enjoyable. You can customize your character, your teammate and your bike in a lot of ways. There are only two minor negative aspects; sounds of the motorcycles are not very detailed (I am not saying it is bad, but i think it would be better) and the loading screen takes worthwhile long time. Anyway, this game is a great arcade game featuring large variety of beatiful -good looking- motorcylces Full Review »
