better link to it, says the relase is going to be spring 2006.. guess we can't use it as a replacement over the winter.

Does that mean MotoGP 4 will come out first then....

MrX954 · 11-29-2005, 8:53 PM

I thought the game was coming out in december....just like GT4 was scheduled for release 9months prior to its actual release date...

either set a solid release date or dont release one at all

phobiaphobe · 11-29-2005, 11:44 PM

I NEED this game.

Ya that too.

No, motogp3 for xbox is a different game from motogp 3 for ps2, and pc. the moto gp for ps2 is made by namco, i believe. the one for xbox is a different company, and an all around better game, imo.

Regardless if i'm right or wrong, yeah. It's still not compatable.

chkaotic · 11-30-2005, 9:02 AM

Not to jump too off topic, but I've been a Motogp2/Motogp3 player (xbox/thq version) for quite some time. Was @ Best Buy last night and while everyone was clammoring around the X360 demo station, it left the PS2 station empty, and low-and-behold, MotoGp4 by namco was one of the demos

Based on the "arcade" mode I played racing 2 laps around Jerez, the game nowhere near compared to the THQ version (not even anywhere near as good as motogp2) so I dunno if it'l be a viable releif this winter whilst waiting for TT to come out

Ill go back to MGP3 and GT4 til then..

If you have a leaky faucet in your house and you determine then cause does that mean its fixed? No, a problem that has not been fixed, is still a problem.

*Mo Noyz* · 11-30-2005, 3:55 PM

Ah, but do you prefer to rush through fixing it thereby doing a half assed job which will inevitably lead to further problems, or do you relax, take your time, and fix it properly so that it's genuinely fixed?

It kind of reminds me of one of my favorite sayings:

A cheap man pays twice

Damned engineers...what are they good for

They should put the marketing department in charge of deliverable dates...that way they would meet all the deadlines. The boxes might be empty, they would be on time, and really nice and shiny....

Thats a good one

You make a good point but something like this should not take months of research to fix, it's a simple question "Can you get this done by December 1st?" "Yes" or "No" I've spent many nights programming, seen the sun rise a few times in my life most due to meeting deadlines, which I've never missed one yet.

Marketing should not see any products until they are being mass produced

There is a gameplay footage video on this page:

It's from Laguna Seca on what looks like a 600rr! Awesome!

Edit: Nermind, it's the same as the previous one....

MrX954 · 12-14-2005, 2:28 PM

OK Mr. Marketing we are all already sold on the title now go talk to production and get it on the trucks for us

GhostRider · 12-14-2005, 3:11 PM

Will this game be available for PC? Or will I have to get a PS2/3.

TAZ · 02-13-2006, 2:40 PM

This game has yet to be released. Found a new "expected" release date of "2Q 2006".

Some good pics (48 of them) at the following link. Not sure if these have all been available before. Looks good, though. Lots of bikes, old and new, and the detail is impressive. Hopefully the gameplay will be as well.

ConqSoft · 02-13-2006, 2:42 PM

They were planning a launch sometime in mid-March, last I heard. I was contacted by Sony to run some promotional ads for the launch, but I don't have any additional details yet.

ND4SPD · 02-13-2006, 2:57 PM

All members with 10k+ posts get their own free copy I presume?

ConqSoft · 02-13-2006, 3:01 PM

Actually, I did request some free copies to randomly give away. No idea if they'll go for it though.

I'm gonna be the first person to campaign a 350 horse turbocharged Burgman. Gear-drive baby.

Aychdot · 02-13-2006, 3:08 PM

Thead starter gets one also!

*Mo Noyz* · 02-16-2006, 2:53 PM

I notice they still aren't showing any in-game pics. That could be yet another sign that they are running further behind than they're letting on.

ConqSoft · 02-16-2006, 2:55 PM

Based on my discussions with the marketing guy, the media blitz is still scheduled for March 14 - May 14.

This isn't a long thought out set-up for an April Fool's joke is it? You are not going to have us thinking there will be a "ConqSoft" blackbird with Fireblades logos on it in the game are you?
