Not Off Subject: Moto Racer 2 is Very Good!

> Very disappointed with MotoRacer 2. It's lost that gutsy look and feel.

I only played the original on the PlayStation, and loved it, but like this
much more.

Weedy?  I actually thought the sound was decent (no Motocross Madness - to
be described below - but pretty good).  I think the bikes look great now,
with the reflection mapping and all that.  They look more like the dirt bike
you would buy than the race-bred machine (the game's bikes have headlights,
etc.)

Gack!  Ugh!  I played the demo, and was very disappointed with the control
(i.e. past 20 of joystick movement, the turning increases exponentially)
and the physics (overshooting turns, moon's gravity, collisions), but the
sound was great!  I wish there was a way to get this into MR2.  I also wish
MR2 had more particles shooting out the back of the dirt bikes - it looks
like you're riding on clay.
