    Anyone played Superbike '08 yet ?

    I'm curious.

    I want a proper racer on the 360, Forza is good but...limited, samey, the only kick I get out of it is setting 'ring times, I want a proper dedicated racing sim on a console, SBK looks good, but hardcore and no frills, this seems to have lost it marks in reviews, but I wonder how much of a negative this is to bikey people who want a proper racing-bike-on-a-console experience.

    Anyone bought it yet ? Thoughts ?

    hmmm, £20 saved on the GAME card, very tempted....

    I played the preview and it was pretty good fun, haven't tried multiplayer though. It's not Moto GP though.

    Is this out? I must have missed the release, didn't hear a peep about it.

    Ordered it Sunday, so it should turn up today Got it for £27 on gameplay if you include the quidco discount.

    My brother has been playing it since Friday and he's loving it at the moment, he said it's better than MotoGP. He likes proper bike racing games, he does a lot of track days with his bikes.

    I'm not a big fan of bike racing games, so my comments prolly won't make you wanna buy the game Only bought it because my brother kept pestering me too.

    Seems alright so far, not really done a great deal yet, just a few single player quick races.
