MotoGP 09/10 may just be the first instance of an officially licensed racing game arriving in time for the start of the new season – although, as the name suggests, this evocation of motorbike racing's blue riband formula kicks off with the 2009 season's curtain-raiser at Losail.
As promised prior to release, the first 2010 MotoGP season update will be available to download absolutely free of charge for Xbox LIVE and PlayStation Network users across Europe and Australia this week. The new season downloadable content (DLC) will arrive on Xbox LIVE Marketplace tomorrow, Tuesday, 6th July 2010, and PlayStation Network on Wednesday, 7th July.
Capcom is pleased to announce today the release of the first downloadable content for MotoGP 09/10 on both the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

While fighting blood-thirsty dragons and exploring the vast emptiness of space certainly fits that mold, so does driving at speeds of over 200 miles per hour with only two wheels separating me from the unrecognizable blur of pavement below. Capcom's MotoGP 09/10 provides just such an experience, featuring enough real-life tracks, riders, and bikes to attract any diehard motorcycle-racing fan. However, for everyone else, the slew of problems affecting the actual racing will make the game much harder to enjoy."
