    Wow, the reviews are way off here. This game is very fun. Your reaction time is key - even more so than in the Burnout series (I own all 3 of those too). There's not much more rewarding than sliding your bike full speed under a truck trailer that suddenly pulled out in front of you.

There's not much more rewarding than sliding your bike full speed under a truck trailer that suddenly pulled out in front of you. Many times in each race there'll be adreniline moments like that (or many horrific crashes that certainly would cause death in real life). The graphics are about on par with Burnout 1 - it's a bit of a weak point, but very functional and certainly inoffensive. Overall this is a great racing title, that will push your reflexes to the limit. Expand

    A true love-it-or-hate-it game; try before you buy. [Aug 2003, p.77]

    A passable motorcycle racer with decent track design, a solid framerate and a healthy sense of speed. But it's hard to recommend when it coexists with the superior-in-every-way "MotoGP 2." [Aug 2003, p.85]

    Speed Kings is like "Need For Speed" on bikes meets "Burnout" with a dash of "Road Rash," and seriously, what's not to like about that match made in heaven?
