    Shame on the hacks that made this downgrade that barely runs. Absolutely unbelievable how everything is a grift these days. You release a game where the framrate drops in the rain and where the handling is a huge downgrade in every way? Im shocked. Truly a terrible look

    The game is short. There are only a few tracks to race on, and the career mode is very short.
    The game is repetitive. The races are all very similar, and there is not much variety in the gameplay.
    The game is buggy. There are a number of bugs in the game, which can make it frustrating to play. Overall, TT Isle of Man: Ride on the Edge 3 is a disappointing game. It has some good aspects,    The game is short. There are only a few tracks to race on, and the career mode is very short.

    Overall, TT Isle of Man: Ride on the Edge 3 is a disappointing game. It has some good aspects, but it is ultimately a shallow and repetitive experience.

    I would recommend CarX Street, downloaded myself from carxstreetapk.com, instead of TT Isle of Man: Ride on the Edge 3. CarX Street is a free-to-play racing game that features a variety of cars and tracks. The game has a more arcade-like feel than TT Isle of Man, but it is still a lot of fun to play.    … Expand

    The game in terms of technical state is absolutely shocking—truly—shocking. I’ve no idea whether it’s a straight-to-PS5 port from PS4 but the technical state of the game is absolutely abysmal. The graphics, could be great as a lot of the foliage and track side detail is really nice but literally 2-metres beyond that is pre-PS3 era graphics, street furniture pops into view right beside you,The game in terms of technical state is absolutely shocking—truly—shocking. I’ve no idea whether it’s a straight-to-PS5 port from PS4 but the technical state of the game is absolutely abysmal. The graphics, could be great as a lot of the foliage and track side detail is really nice but literally 2-metres beyond that is pre-PS3 era graphics, street furniture pops into view right beside you, surrounding hills are 8-bit resolution ultra low res jpegs with ‘fields’ looking more like runways drawn striped right across and over hills and mountains. Entire mountains are absent then pop suddenly into view right in front of you. The entire countryside looks like it’s blanketed in snow in some lighting conditions. Worse than even that is the frame rate. Occasionally you’ll get lucky and get 50fps but 90 percent of the time you’re travelling at 20fps or less. The lack of continuity and stability literally makes controlling the bike with quick, precise movement almost impossible, certainly hit-or-miss and certainly affects the precision of keeping a good line and turning in anticipation of corners. The graphics are abysmal, I don’t believe it should even have been released in such a state.

    As for the game; very little in the way of content. No rider or bike customisation. Just a handful of official riders and their respective bikes. Very superficial upgrades for the bikes which can be bought relatively quickly with not too much progress. A very short season with 8 or so qualifiers then races, then ultimately the TT. Dull races as fillers in between on fictional circuits that seem totally inappropriate for TT bikes with tons of hairpin bends that TT bikes just do not like to u-turn. Nothing to win in terms of rewards or unlockables or surprises. So once you raced and/or won one race, you’ve basically seen everything the game has to offer. You can ride around in free roam and encounter some ‘points of interest’ which are simply markers dotted around the map with ‘interesting facts’ about the IoM to add to a glossary in the menu... No exciting or significant landmarks, secrets, Easter eggs, or exciting unlockables.

    UI is all over the place, can be confusing and makes no sense. Often it’s unclear what you’re even doing or why you’re doing it. Music is like some hard rock screaming atrocious sound, which I turned off almost immediately. There is some nice ambient track-side sound effects but spectators continue clapping and cheering even when you crash, and the spectator models look atrocious, most neither male nor female. The wind noise has been significantly reduced and doesn’t give the same excitement as the previous games. The only excellently executed feature is the DualSense feedback with some genuinely satisfying gearshift jolts in conjunction with great exhaust pop sounds, probably the most enjoyable experience. Honestly, the game is an absolute shame to the licence of the Government of The Isle of Man and the TT circuit. An absolute wasted opportunity. IOMTTROTE2 is superior to this one and that one has some fundamental flaws. Whomever took over to develop this one has made an absolute mess of the game. So, buy the second one, or buy this third one if you really have to, on sale, no more that £10 max. Reviewed on PS5, 3/10 for mostly truly unforgivable graphics, atrocious frame rates, and light content, if they were improved, graphics and frame rate alone, could be a solid 8.    … Expand

    Good-
    Exhilarating speeds and races; Fluid gameplay.
    Bad- A steep learning curve; Bland world design; Occasional pop-in issues. Thoughts- All-in-all, TT Isle of Man: Ride on the Edge 3 is a remarkably niche racing endeavor that’ll mostly speak true to actual fans of the sport. The difficulty curve is prevalent and will ultimately weed out novice or impatient players quickly. But    Good-

    The bike handling is awful and the semi auto gearbox is useless. The second game is better, learn the track on that and save yourself some cash. Also there's framerate stutters and if you try going into a lobby, it'll keep saying you're not connected to your gaming network

    I really want to love this game, but there are a couple of issues that mean I can’t quite, but overall the positives outweigh the negatives.

    As a pure motorcycle racing Sim I think it’s great. It is very, very difficult. The physics are realistic making the Superbikes absolute beasts to ride. Add to that the narrow, windy Manx roads and it is a real challenge to master the game, you have to learn the roads. If you clip a kerb, you crash; if you misjudge a curve you hit a wall. The scenery and houses, walls etc flash by at incredible speeds and it is exhilarating when you get it right.
    BUT:There is a real issue with frame rate drops in the rain and when there are multiple riders.This makes the game almost unplayable at times. However as the TT doesn’t run in the rain and it is a time trial rather than a race then they are not necessary for a TT sim.
    I live the TT, but I will never drive a super bike around the streets at speed. Even with its faults the fame gives you a real sense of what it must be like. But a word of warning..you need to be prepared to learn the roads and the handling to get anywhere. There is no run-off and as the recent show was called there is no room for error. Hope they patch the frame rate but it’s worth playing if you want a true TT sim    … Expand

As challenging as this game is, I love the physics and gameplay. the graphics are top notch, and the audio is great. YOU MUST change the controller setting and try the right stick as your throttle/brake. Up is throttle, down for brake, and then tune the settings so your brake kicks in a bit when you let off the gas. The opening screen and interface is so so. All that needs to be revamped. the opening screen is not very intuitive, but once you figure that out, the games great.

    But there's still room for improvement, as always.    … Expand

    Bland and glitchy scenery does nothing to endear you to the one-note gameplay. It’s decently playable, and controls well, but the magic of the first game is gone. [Issue#29, p.97]

    A challenging simulator of one of the world’s most dangerous sports. Its handling is unrivalled and the game is difficult enough to truly test you. There’s not enough singleplayer content, however, and the game is not in the best of shapes, with framerate drops and other issues.

    Aiming to be a pure sim above all, TT Isle of Man 3 may seem too hardcore but knows how to reward the player if you invest yourself enough.
