Gamespot: E3 08: MotoGP 08 Hands-On

Earlier today, during a behind-closed-doors meeting with Capcom at the Los Angeles Convention Center, Gamespot had an opportunity to get hands-on with an Xbox 360 demo version of MotoGP 08. The demo featured a full field of licensed riders but only one of the 18 circuits that will appear in the finished game; Barcelona’s Catalunya.

Gamespot was told that although the visuals in the demo were essentially the same as those in last year’s game, they’ll definitely be getting an upgrade before the game arrives in stores. The reason the demo was being in shown in spite of this is that Capcom wanted to show the game’s new Arcade mode, which makes the handling of the bikes and the AI of the opponents much more forgiving.
