Just came across this while cruising Sega's web site. If they do a good job
on this it will be fantastic for bike fan's. Let's let them know we really
want it !
Manx TT Superbike -- Experience the
internationally acclaimed Manx-challenge!
Turbo boost at speeds of 125 miles per hour as you blast your way through
exact recreations of natural scenery straight from the world-famous "Isle of
Mann" race. Immerse yourself in realistic sounds from actual TT bikes as
you take on the challenge of two demanding courses: the TT course and the
Seaside course. Experience racing in 3D computer imagery with real-time
texture-mapped graphics in this exhilarating thrill-ride. Network ***
capabilities make this a prize possession with its added interactive
capabilities. Make sure you invest in the best racing gear available before
you jump into terrain and altitude challenges that are sure to leave their
mark! Rated K-A, "Manx TT Superbike" will speed onto your PC in early
'97. Category: Racing Simulation
Well lets hope Sega, tweaks this game a little before it releases it. I've
played the game in the arcade and was very disappointed with it. It was
basically Daytona's physics on motorcycles, i.e. slam the bike over and
"power slide" through the corners. Now I know inducing rear wheel spin and
sliding the front wheel are realities in bike racing, but not like in
ManxTT. Though it is the only game in town so to speak, so I'll probably
give it a spin. Lets hope its better than the Daytona port.

This should be good. It might not be the greatest sim, but ANY
reasonably decent bike racing on the PC would be good.....and if it then
stimulates someone like Papyrus (Adam?) or Microprose to come up with a
better sim of (say) WSB or 500GP, EVEN BETTER!!!
Cheers!

I love bikes, and the Isle of Mann is one of the coolest street races
in the world!
One problem...
I've played Daytona USA and it dogs bad on my PC. (6x86 150+)
It'll probably use the same engine...
