Grab your bike leathers and get a health insurance plan with all the benefits as we review Motorbike on the PS3. Is it an Urban Trials Freestyle clone, something better or something worse? Read and find out.
VRFocus - Not all virtual reality (VR) racing experiences have to put you in the driver's seat. The recent reveal of Oculus Rift head-mounted display (HMD) support for Codemasters' Toybox Turbos has proved that much. This week sees the launch of another new third-person driving VR title simply named Motorbike from indie developer baKno Games. Currently free to download on PC and Mac, the experience features full support for the Oculus Rift.
Richard of PopCults.com writes "Motorbike is worth the download for some brief fun but not really worth the $15 price it comes with. The flaws in the game, including the menu options at the start of the game (how can you mess those up!?) are plentiful, but the fun factor of the game and the creation editor make the game as fun as it can be."
DHGF: With all the games I’ve played in the last couple of years I’ve played only a couple I’d say were terrible. There have been games that look bad, but were conceptually interesting, or looked good but were bland, or had poorly added microtransactions, or had more bugs than a cheap motel room. It’s rare to come across a game that manages to get everything wrong.
I'm dreading writing the review as much as I am dreading trying to play the game again.
