Anyone out there casually play comp or PS2 games?  Do you know of any good motorcycle racing games?

The weather has gone completely to crap here in Seattle this year - very classicly cliched for seattle actually, either raining or about to be raining every day.  So I found myself renting Need For Speed Underground the other day for the PS2 and quickly became addicted to it.  It's funny, because I'm not into the whole souped up Honda Civic thing at all, but after a few hours, I actually found myself playing for hours on end just to get the next bling bling neon ground effects, and actually putting Neuspeed and Venom graphics on my black/lime green volkswagon golf.

Anyway, after taking this back, I'm wondering if there are any decent motorcycle games out there.  I've always wanted to play a bike racing game, but have never bothered.  Any suggestions?

Well, I could go on about racing games.  Let's see.  There's a few MOTOGP style games.  The newest ones are supposed to be pretty damn good.  I liked Vice City.  I use the motorcycles all I can.  There are motorcycles in Midnight Club II (is it out yet?) Just to name a few.

the best motogp game is the one for xbox, i havent played motogp 3 for the ps2 yet though, so that may be similar. Other than that there arnt many to choose from unfortunatly. Lets see... Final Fantasy X and X-2 are definatly worth a look at, all depends on your taste though. Oh well, have fun  :mrgreen:

Midnight Club 2 is good, and once you get the high-end bike, there's no need to even drive a car again.

I don't know if it's on the PS2, but Speed Kings (Xbox) is pretty good.  Very British.  Check that out.  You may dig it.

Have fun.

I've got MotoGP2 on the PC, if the PS2 version is the same then it's damn good.  :thumb:

The best offroad game according to MotoX magazine is ATV offroad fury2 even though they ride 4wheels.  About onroad games I come to a blank!

I have the first MotoGP and it's a good game. Need to pick up MotoGP2. I hear it's more like Gran Turimo 3 where you can modify and adjust settings on the bike. Hmmm...off of work...it's raining so no riding...out of school so no studying...maybe a trip to EB games in in store for this morning. Waiting on GT4 to come out in Jan. Better graphics and more rally racing!

If anyone really likes GT3 A-Spec.  I've got a memory card with some 1000HP+ cars if you like.  I think I've got a mustang, viper, 3000V-4 and some other cars that have way too much HP.  I'm a power junkie.  I'll trade you for another memory card; new, used.  Just a 1to1 trade.

It has nothing to do with racing but is a fun computer game and since I did most of the art I am taking this opportunity to prostitute.
