CheatCC says, "Overall, Moto GP on the Wii is just a mess. Although I didn't exactly have great expectations going into the game, I at least wanted something playable. Although I would definitely recommend MotoGP on the PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360, the Wii version just isn't up to par. With last-gen visuals, four weak control schemes, and little to no play variety, the Moto GP experience is lost here. Moto GP turns out to be yet another poor racing game on the Wii."

Harvey Parker, lead artist on the latest Moto GP game, has told IncGamers that the in-game realism is limited by the amount of memory on the consoles.
This guys seems a bit contradicting of himself. He talks about achieving realism and how it's limited by the console memory, yet goes on to say they are trying to make it arcady like shift?
Yeah GT5. /s
Big reason PS3 is so fast is SPU's and fast memory of the Cell. The local store on which games like GT5 get their realism is only 256KB.That's Kilobytes not Megabytes. Very little memory. So memory is not the main problem for realism. Keeping the SPU's fed and scheduling them correctly is. GT5 does it. Multiplatform games try and throw RAM at the problem instead. And it fails in comparison. But they don't have a lot of options because it's the only solution for the 360 and it fails in comparison. It's old design and old thinking.
As with pretty much every game, really. In this case it's a bit of a shame, but then Forza has shown that you can get really realistic vehicles even with the current systems.
Zentendo writes: "Moto GP receives a score of six as it doesn't do enough to appeal to casual gamers or those who are not familiar with the motorsport such as myself. If you are a hardcore fan of motorcycle racing though, you will appreciate the physics and different control types. Fans of motorcycle racing should bump the score up to a seven or eight as they will enjoy it far more. Hopefully, if Capcom does an installment of this game next year. they will add more depth to the presentation to attract new players and make a tutorial mode that actually explains things to you. Summation: Buy if you are a fan, rent and be cautious otherwise".
