Tourist Trophy: The Real Riding Simulator

Hold tight! It's Gran Turismo on motorbikes

As acclaimed as the Gran Turismo games have been over the years, something's been missing. The series has tried to cater to everyone from casual car enthusiasts to obsessive car modders, but motorcycle aficionados have been left out in the cold.

No longer. Due in April, Tourist Trophy: The Real Riding Simulator promises to finally bring GT's attention to detail and physics to the nuanced sport of high-speed motorbike racing. Instead of worrying about keeping all four wheels on the road, players now have to learn to lean into turns and pull off wheelies without skidding face-first across the asphalt. It's simple enough to be entertaining, but predictably appears realistic enough to satisfy dedicated gearheads.

Like the GT games, Tourist Trophy lets players race an impressive array of real-life rides, more than 80 in all. Manufacturers including Kawasaki, Triumph, Honda and Ducati (Harley didn't want in, sadly) are represented, and the bikes themselves run the gamut from classic cafe racers to cutting-edge sport bikes. Unlike in GT , however, players won't be able to modify these rides much; in a rare attempt to keep things simple and appeal to an audience not obsessed with gear ratios, the designers at Polyphony Digital replaced the tinkering options with customizable riders. There's a broad array of licensed helmets, boots and other racing gear to choose from, and players will be also able to pick from three different riding styles that affect turning and control, but new engine parts and shocks are right out.

In another plus for the casual crowd, the controls on the preview version we played felt natural and responsive. It's still easy to crash or overturn your bike if you'renot careful(in sequences that are kept mercifully short, which is almost surprising given the popularity of Burnout -style crash porn), but leaning into turns is something that should come naturally to most players.

Already released in Japan, Tourist Trophy looks impressive. The riders animate realistically, and there's an over-the-handlebars camera mode that lets you get a close-up look at your bike's working gauges. Sometimes, particularly during replays (which let players take snapshots of their bikes, by the way), the game almost looks like the real thing, which is no mean feat for the aging PS2 hardware.

Tourist Trophy Review

• First Released Apr 4, 2006 released

Tourist Trophy covers familiar territory, but also manages to craft a unique and authentic motorcycle racing experience.

By Greg Mueller on April 3, 2006 at 5:26PM PDT

It's been the better part of a decade since the original Gran Turismo redefined racing on consoles, but Polyphony Digital has finally moved into the realm of two-wheeled racing with Tourist Trophy. The game maintains the compulsive drive for authenticity that the Gran Turismo series is known for, but with a much narrower focus. So while it may just be Gran Turismo with motorcycles, it's still a great racing game in its own right.

There are more than 120 motorcycles to ride in Tourist Trophy. The selection of bikes is very Japan-centric, with Hondas, Yamahas, and Suzukis making up the vast majority of the roster. There are a few bikes from BMW, Ducati, and Triumph as well, but the selection is limited in that regard. The motorcycles range from lightweight 125cc two-strokes to heavy 1,000cc-plus bikes. The variety is somewhat limited by the fact that you'll often see multiple versions of the same model of bike.

Regardless of how similar the bikes may be, they all have a distinct look, sound, and feel. The detail on the bikes matches what you've come to expect from Polyphony Digital, with everything from the gas tank to the oil pan being accurately detailed for each and every motorcycle. The only fault is that the over-the-handlebars view is pretty ugly. Each bike has a distinct display in this view, but the handlebars and rearview mirrors have a blurry, pasted-on look. All in all, though, the game looks great, and if you're a motorcycle enthusiast, you'll enjoy watching the replays of the races almost as much as you'll enjoy racing.

The bikes in Tourist Trophy are just as satisfying to ride as they are to look at. Each motorcycle handles differently, requiring you to adjust your riding style depending on the bike you're riding. The heavy bikes are great for speed but can be tough to stay on top of in tight turns. The lighter bikes are quick and nimble but don't have the power to keep up in the straight sections. Everything from the way a bike starts to shake as you hit speeds of 200 miles per hour or more to the sound of wind rushing past your helmet as you top out in a straightaway makes you feel like you're teetering between a record-setting lap and a pelvis-shattering spill across the pavement. However, the crashes are the weakest part of the riding experience. In a standard race, if you really mess up and smash straight into a wall, you'll be slapped with a 10-second penalty, but most of the time when you take a spill you'll be instantly placed back on the track, sometimes even ahead of where you wiped out. You might lose a second or two as you get back up to speed, but it hardly seems like much of a penalty for a crash that would seemingly cost you the race, if not more.

Tourist Trophy is composed of two main modes: arcade and Tourist Trophy. Arcade mode is the place to go if you're just looking for a timed run, a quick race against up to three computer-controlled opponents, or a two-player split-screen race. Tourist Trophy mode is the equivalent of a career mode, where you start out by earning a license and then work your way through various racing events and challenges to access new bikes and more challenges. It's similar to Gran Turismo mode in concept, but with some significant differences.

For one, there's no money in Tourist Trophy mode. You earn new bikes not by amassing wealth, but by winning challenges and race events. There are dozens of challenges to choose from, but they are locked according to the licenses you've completed. The license tests are extremely easy, though, so you might as well finish them all first thing to get them out of the way. Each challenge corresponds to a specific motorcycle, which you win by completing that challenge. The challenges are all pretty much the same, requiring you to overtake an opponent after starting at a disadvantage and then maintain the lead for 10 seconds or cross the finish line, whichever comes first. Some of the challenges can be completed in less than 30 seconds, but others can be quite difficult, especially because you're disqualified if you leave the track, wreck, or cause your opponents to wreck. Since these challenges are all available as soon as you complete the license tests, you can conceivably pack your garage with a couple of dozen bikes after just a few hours of playing.

The best bikes are awarded for completing race events. There are 22 race events to start out with, but you can unlock several more by winning championship events. The events are all themed, and most are restricted to specific types of bikes. There are events designed around specific bike models, eras, and sizes. Most of the events are single, three-lap races where you're awarded for each individual race. There are also a handful of championship events where points are awarded for each race and the person with the most points at the end of the series is the champion. Most of the events aren't punishingly difficult, and they're short enough that they can be completed (or repeated, if necessary) relatively quickly.

The second major difference between Tourist Trophy and Gran Turismo is in the vehicle customization. In Tourist Trophy you can tune your motorcycles by adjusting the gear ratio, brakes, shocks, tire compound, and exhaust. But the tuning is extremely basic and is nowhere near as involved as in Gran Turismo. With that said, the tuning does make a big difference in how each bike handles, so it still pays to tweak your bike settings before each race. There are also no part upgrades in Tourist Trophy, so if your bike is underpowered, it will stay that way. All in all, the bike customization leaves a lot to be desired in Tourist Trophy.

Oddly enough, the rider customization is surprisingly robust. You can win all sorts of licensed riding gear from manufacturers such as Alpine Star, Shoei, and Arai. You can also customize your riding style to suit your needs. You can adjust everything from head roll to body lean, and the riding style you choose can make a big difference in how you're able to handle turns.

You'll see quite a variety of turns as well. Some are fast and exhilarating, while others demand hard braking and precise timing. There are more than 30 courses in all, although some of those courses are simply alternate arrangements of the same race track. The courses all look great, and there's plenty of variety to challenge every facet of your racing skills. The only problem is that all but one of the courses are recycled from the Gran Turismo games, so it will feel like well-worn territory if you've played those games. It's still a very different experience on two wheels, though, and all the courses feel well suited to motorcycle racing.

In fact, the challenge comes almost entirely from the course, rather than from the competition. The artificial intelligence in the game is very mechanical. The opponents you face will occasionally take corners a bit slower than necessary, but you'll almost never see them take a corner wide and dump their bikes in the gravel or oversteer and take a spill coming out of a turn. The result is a race that feels more like a time trial than a heated sprint for the finish line. The biggest component of victory is the bike you choose to ride. If you're on an underpowered bike, you won't stand much of a chance of catching up, no matter how good you are. But, if you have a fast bike, you can easily compensate for sloppy cornering with quick acceleration and a high top speed.

Tourist Trophy feels very familiar, but at the same time it doesn't just feel like motorcycles were forced into a Gran Turismo game. The motorcycles all look and handle great, and there are plenty of events, challenges, and courses to keep you coming back for more. If you're even slightly interested in the world of motorcycles, you'll find a lot to enjoy in Tourist Trophy.

TT Isle of Man : Une simulation rapide et exigeante

Depuis l’excellent Tourist Trophy en 2006, les pilotes virtuels rêvent d’un titre qui sera capable de surpasser la production de Kazunori Yamauchi. Ces dernières années, le genre a été trusté par les Milanais de Milestone (MotoGP, MXGP…) et nombreux sont les amateurs de deux-roues à espérer un renouveau vidéoludique de leur discipline favorite. C’est désormais chose faite avec les développeurs français de Kylotonn qui, après avoir récupéré la licence WRC, s’attaque à leur tout premier jeu de moto ! Et pour une première, ils ont choisi le mythique Tourist Trophy de l’île de Man, une course excitante, redoutable et terriblement dangereuse se déroulant sur des routes ouvertes avec des pointes dépassant les 320 km/h. Grisant comme jamais, le jeu est-il à l’image de cette compétition hors-norme ? On vous dit tout.

Avant de nous intéresser aux frissons de l’asphalte, un peu d’histoire s’impose. L’île de Man est un territoire situé en mer d’Irlande, au centre des îles Britanniques. D’une superficie de 572 km2, cette nation celtique d’environ 90 000 habitants est le théâtre annuel d’une compétition prestigieuse et décriée qui a cours depuis 1907. Sur près de 60 kilomètres, les pilotes les plus chevronnés dévorent littéralement le bitume dans la course la plus mortelle du monde (plus de 250 victimes en essais et en courses depuis sa création). Sa particularité est de proposer un long circuit sur des routes de montagne, procurant des sensations absolument uniques pour un danger omniprésent. Richard Quayle, ancien champion de cette épreuve, déclarait ceci : « Si Roger Federer rate son coup, il perd un point. Si je rate un virage, c’est ma vie que je perds. » C’est dire l’intensité et la folie qui gravitent autour de cette compétition. Et justement, avec TT Isle of Man , Kylotonn place les joueurs dans la condition de ces pilotes sans limites, tout en les immergeant dans une discipline très différente ce que l’on peut connaître avec d’autres licences. Seul risque pour vous, que vous éclatiez votre manette de rage…

Ce n’est pas la première fois que le TT Isle of Man fait l’objet d’une adaptation en jeu vidéo. Les habitués des salles d’arcade ont probablement gardé en mémoire l’excellent Manx TT Superbike paru en 1996 et adapté un an plus tard sur Saturn et PC . À l’époque, Tetsuya Mizuguchi voulait frapper fort après le succès de SEGA Rally et a été séduit par la beauté du paysage de l’île de Man. Il a ainsi conçu un jeu qui puisse allier l’impact visuel à l’amour que les Japonais éprouvent pour les sorties en moto sur routes ouvertes. Seulement, à la différence de TT Isle of Man, le titre de SEGA est un pur jeu d’arcade, dans la lignée de ce qui se faisait dans ces lieux imprégnés d’odeurs de clopes froides. En 2018, les attentes sont bien différentes et ce n’est ainsi pas un hasard si Kylotonn a opté pour une simulation à l’impression de vitesse prononcée. Le circuit de l’île de Man est d’un tel dénivelé que les motos décollent littéralement, comme lors du passage de Ballacrye. Il arrive aussi régulièrement que les cylindrées se mettent à chasser violemment, la maîtrise du pilote devant faire le reste. Ce sont ces sensations sur routes ouvertes que l’éditeur français a voulu reproduire. Et très franchement, le report de la date de sortie (initialement prévue à la fin 2017) a fait un bien fou à ce titre.

UN CONTENU MODESTE

Il faut bien l’avouer, les jeux de course ont toujours une saveur particulière dès qu’il s’agit d’affronter des pilotes sur des circuits ouverts. Ce n’est ainsi pas un hasard si les grosses productions comme Forza ou Gran Turismo aiment mettre en avant des tracés comme Prague, Rio de Janeiro ou des lieux bucoliques imaginés de toutes pièces. Cela n’enlève bien sûr en rien le prestige et la technique des circuits fermés, mais l’approche de TT Isle of Man ne laisse décidément pas insensible. Il faut s’imaginer foncer à toute vitesse à travers des villages champêtres en frôlant les trottoirs et autres cabines téléphoniques à l’anglaise. Cependant, pour que le plaisir soit prolongé, il va falloir souffrir, chuter, se relever, repartir au combat et apprendre à négocier chaque virage avec la plus grande des précisions. Si le petit tutoriel est là pour donner un léger aperçu, il n’en est rien représentatif de l’épreuve à venir…

Après une introduction faisant monter la pression, le joueur est amené à nommer son pilote et à choisir sa couleur de tenue. Côté contenu et interface, TT Isle of Man fait dans la sobriété avec du solo découpé en plusieurs sections (course rapide, contre-la-montre, carrière et tutoriel) et l’indispensable multi local et en ligne. À ce sujet, on va réfréner les ardeurs des familles nombreuses, car le tout se résume à des courses à tour de rôle. Par conséquent, et bien que le mode accepte jusqu’à 8 joueurs, n’espérez pas d’écran splitté. Le titre de Kylotonn est avant tout un plaisir solitaire qui demande une concentration extrême. Le moindre écart, le moindre vacillement peut être fatal et il n’y a aucune possibilité de revenir en arrière comme c’est le cas dans la plupart des jeux de course actuels. Dans ces conditions, il va falloir appréhender chacun des 264 virages du tracé officiel de l’île de Man auxquels viennent s’ajouter des circuits fictifs et bien plus modestes en superficie. Avec dix pistes, le contenu de TT Isle of Man peut sembler un peu faible, surtout avec un mode carrière très classique dans son fonctionnement et totalement vide de mise en scène, mais l’intérêt est ailleurs.

LE FRISSON DE LA VITESSE

La plus grande satisfaction de TT Isle of Man réside bien sûr dans la reproduction fidèle de la célèbre course. Des membres de l’équipe de Kylotonn se sont rendus sur place pour prendre des photos et vidéos et utiliser un laser-scan afin de reproduire et cartographier l’intégralité des 60 kilomètres du circuit. C’est peut-être difficile à mesurer, néanmoins il s’agit d’un très gros challenge réussi avec brio par le studio parisien. Pour afficher une telle quantité de données, sans chargement, tout en conservant la fluidité, c’est une grande performance (et cela explique aussi l’absence d’écran splitté). Ainsi, et même si ce n’est pas le cas, le joueur a la sensation d’évoluer dans un monde ouvert. Couplé aux paysages magnifiques de la localité mannoise, le dépaysement est total ! Comme l’équipe française a fait en sorte de proposer une impression de vitesse digne de ce nom, on peut vous garantir que l’immersion est au rendez-vous. Frôler chaque mur à pleine vitesse, se pencher de tout son poids, doser l’accélération et le freinage, gérer la position de votre pilote sont autant d’éléments que nous aurez à prendre en compte. En matière de gameplay, TT Isle of Man prône la simulation, mais distille une petite touche arcade pour contenter tout le monde, via notamment quatre modes de difficulté, des styles de pilotage présélectionnés et une batterie d’options (ABS, Anti-patinage, Anti-stoppie…). Au départ, il est plus que recommandé d’activer la ligne de course pour ensuite s’en défaire petit à petit. En fonction de votre sélection, le pilotage sera plus ou moins accessible. Cependant, une chose est sûre, si les vues intérieures sont les plus grisantes, elles sont aussi les plus maniables. En effet, en caméra externe, la glisse – parfois étrange – de la moto demande une maîtrise supplémentaire et il n’est pas rare de partir complètement en sucette simplement en donnant de petits à-coups. Évidemment, c’est comme tout et on s’y fait, mais la vue casque (et à la première personne) nous a semblé, de loin, la plus efficace.

Avec ses 23 pilotes et sa quarantaine de motos (deux catégories : Super Sport et Super Bikes), TT Isle of Man est un jeu grisant mais qui demande pas mal d’apprentissages. Pour obtenir les meilleurs temps, la connaissance des virages est indispensable – même si la map peut être affichée – et il faut passer de nombreuses heures sur la route pour sentir son bolide, comprendre ses réactions et s’habituer à une vitesse qui colle littéralement au fauteuil. À tombeau ouvert, alors que le champ de vision se rétrécit, on a la sensation d’évoluer dans un tunnel sans fin où l’homme et la machine ne font plus qu’un. Votre serviteur n’ose à peine imaginer ce que ressentent réellement les véritables pilotes qui participent au TT, cela doit être démentiel. Et ce n’est pas un hasard si de nombreux reportages ont été réalisés sur cette compétition…

UN AUTRE MONDE

Pour les férus de jeux de moto « classiques », TT Isle of Man peut sembler totalement en deçà de certaines productions qui sont beaucoup plus généreuses en circuits, motos et pilotes. Il est aussi perfectible sur le plan de l’animation des pilotes, des collisions, de la technique ou encore des graphismes, et tout le monde n’accrochera pas à cette physique particulière, surtout en vue externe où la moto semble parfois tourner sur un axe. Il est évident que le comportement des cylindrées, lors des phases d’accélération et de décélération, manque de souplesse. Mais l’ambition de Kylotonn était de retranscrire au mieux les sensations éprouvées par les pilotes du Tourist Trophy de Man et on peut dire qu’ils sont parvenus à instaurer cette adrénaline inhérente à cette compétition hors du temps. Tous les passionnés de moto aspirent à cette liberté et le TT de l’île de Man est le seul endroit sur Terre où la bécane ne roule pas. Elle vole. Même si tout n’est pas parfait, le résultat obtenu par le studio français, surtout quand on sait qu’il s’agit de leur premier jeu de moto, est remarquable. Différent des MotoGP ou de la licence Ride , TT Isle of Man se grime comme une formidable alternative pour tous les amoureux des deux-roues.

• Collisions un peu rigides

Réaliste et grisant, TT Isle of Man met une claque à laquelle on ne s’attendait pas. Sans qu’il soit maîtrisé à la perfection, le titre de Kylotonn impose sa personnalité grâce à une reproduction chirurgicale du tracé de l’île et des sensations démentielles. Certes, le titre manque de contenu et aura besoin de quelques patchs pour satisfaire amplement les chevronnés des deux-roues mais l’immersion a été poussée à un tel niveau qu’on voit mal comment les puristes pourront résister à l’appel de cette liberté virtuelle. Ou comment ressentir l’ivresse de la vitesse et le danger omniprésent sans risquer un seul instant de lâcher la rampe, si ce n’est de faire valser votre pad…

'We'd have bitten your hand off to get to this spot' - Mott embraces semi-final opportunity

• Matt Roller Close Matt Roller is an assistant editor at ESPNcricinfo. He tweets at @mroller98 Follow on X

England have spent the last three weeks enjoying the West Indies' most popular tourist destinations: Barbados, Antigua and St Lucia. Their arrival in Georgetown, Guyana on Tuesday morning brought with it a major change of mood: their hotel overlooks the brown, silty meeting point of the Demerara River and the Atlantic, rather than the bright blue of the Caribbean sea.

It is a venture into the unknown. England's men have not played at the Providence Stadium in Guyana since 2010 , when they snuck through to the second phase of the World T20 on net run-rate after defeat to West Indies and a washout against Ireland. Chris Jordan is the only squad member with any experience at Providence, amounting to two CPL games five years ago.

Georgetown is a city that is changing rapidly, with extensive redevelopment everywhere you look. Guyana has the fastest-growing economy in the world after the discovery of an estimated 11 billion barrels worth of oil off its coast. Billboards and posters throughout the capital declare that 'Essequibo is Guyana', making clear its stance on a major territorial dispute with Venezuela.

The T20 World Cup 2024 semi-final between England and India has the sense of a business trip, a three-day in-and-out: neither team is hanging around, with both due to fly to Barbados straight after Thursday's game. They will hardly leave their hotels beyond Wednesday's training sessions due to underlying concerns around security, and their strong focus on preparing for the venue's unique conditions.

England only learned on Monday afternoon that they would be coming to South America, when India confirmed their progress as group winners. They were supported by thousands of travelling fans throughout the two group stages, but there will hardly be any in Georgetown, with last-minute flights and hotel rooms nearly impossible to source.

The ICC's decision to predetermine that India would play in the second semi-final reflects the reality of cricket's economic model, which is utterly dependent on the value of broadcast rights in one dominant market. It is why every game India have played at this World Cup has started at 10.30am local time, which equates to a primetime 8pm spot for the huge television audience back home.

But that has raised questions about sporting integrity: England have been scrambling to learn more about this venue in the last 48 hours, relying heavily on their consultant coach Kieron Pollard ; India, by contrast, have known for months that they would play in Guyana if they progressed this far. "I don't see this as an advantage," Rohit Sharma, their captain, insisted. "You've got to play good cricket to win a cricket game: that's how I look at it."

By contrast, England's coach Matthew Mott believes that the predetermined venue could play into India's hands. "We knew all about it from the start, and that's a decision way above my pay grade," Mott told ESPNcricinfo at Providence before England trained on Wednesday. "And to be honest, I think it could be an advantage for them."

The short turnaround to Saturday's final means there is no reserve day, although a ten-over-a-side game could start as late as 4.14pm local time, which will be 5 hours and 44 minutes after the scheduled start. The forecast has improved significantly in recent days, but there are still heavy showers anticipated; in the event of a no-result, India will qualify after topping their Super Eight group.

"It's something we've known about since the start of the tournament, so to cry foul over it now probably doesn't make a lot of sense," Mott said. "I'm not going to lie: it would be great to have a reserve day because the weather can change from day to day, but I think there will be enough time to get some cricket in… Maybe that's something the ICC need to look at, [in the] long term."

England were on the brink of elimination after losing their first completed match against Australia, and Mott believes that has been beneficial: "The advantage for us is we feel like we've had to scrap and claw our way through this tournament. Then when you get into the semi-finals, you feel really match-hardened for that cut-and-thrust of knockout stuff."

He is one of the few members of England's staff who has been to Guyana before, with his Australia side playing here in the 2018 Women's World T20. "It's a pitch where you're going to have to use your graft and your skills," Mott said. "One of the things that has come out [of England's research] is that it's actually not a huge turning ground: it's more to do with the lack of bounce where spin comes into play.

"We've certainly chatted a lot about it as a spin group, making sure that we keep the stumps in play… Pollard has been exceptional about just making sure that we stick to that sort of stuff. He's been a really strong voice in the use of the wind, and how we can use that as a batting and bowling group."

Thursday's match will be played on the central strip, Pitch No. 3, which was used for a low-scorer between Uganda and Papua New Guinea in the group stages. "It's going to be one of those games where the information-gathering is going to have to happen in those first couple of overs," Mott said. "Something that we've done really well is get that communication back and forth… it is a pretty unique facility."

England did not select their team until after their training session, and were considering a number of different options. They have picked four seamers in their last four games, but will consider replacing one with a batter against India, most likely Will Jacks.

"We feel like we've got all bases covered, and I don't think that any change is going to be massive," Mott said. "It'll be a little tweak here or there - and that could be the edge."

No other team has reached the semi-finals of the last four men's T20 World Cups, and England are chasing history: the trophy has never been successfully defended. It is a tantalising prospect for them, but the conditions mean they are underdogs on Thursday, despite the thrashing they inflicted on India at this stage of the 2022 tournament .

"We would have bitten your hand off a couple of weeks ago to get to this spot," Mott said. "There's a lot of work to do, but a lot of incentive to get through and get to that final as well - and there'd be nothing better than beating a very strong Indian team in a semi-final."

It would surely rank as one of their best T20I wins.

Tourist Trophy – Review

Playstation 2, review by barbaricavatar.

Reviewed: 12/14/2023

I'm not a fan of bikes but this is a great game

While one may feel inclined to call this "Gran Turismo 4 on Bikes" due to it sharing the same game engine and most of the tracks; it's both less and more than that.

Typically for a GT game, the first place you have to visit is the License School where you learn how best to ride and corner through a series of tests. This gives you (if you're usually a car racer) a chance to learn about how lean and rear braking play a part in cornering quickly. Initially it seems like a daft idea to have a lean control as during the tests you'll be holding it almost all the time due to it providing better straight line speed and tighter steering. But when it comes to the races, you must let go from time to time if you've got any aspirations of winning!

There are 2 on-bike viewpoints: A handlebar view with instruments and visible screen which tilts independently of the horizon; or a lower dashboard-free cam which banks entirely into corners as you steer. While aesthetically the handlebar view is nicer, I found it much easier to gauge how well I was cornering from the tilting nose camera. Additionally, I didn't forget that I was on a bike from the view that was banking through the corners! I know it sounds weird, but a couple of times on the binnacle view, I attempted to take a corner sequence the same way I would in GT4, and that just doesn't work in TT.

One thing I struggled with was just how little grip there was on a bike compared to a car. Two wheels are inferior to four wheels when it comes to friction and you'll feel it especially at corner-exit where you start to open the steering to gain speed and the bike just washes wide and off the track as you accelerate. Similarly if you've missed your braking point and end up on the grass, you'll often have an utterly pathetic crash where the bike just falls over and throws your rider off. Additionally, kerb-hopping is a risk where if you don't come off the lean and minimise the amount you're steering then you'll have a crash every time. Thankfully for cornering stability, the visual cues and controller rumble do an excellent job of making you aware how close you are to overdoing the lean or throttle and falling off. There was no instance where I had a crash and didn't immediately understand what I'd done wrong or what was a risk too far.

Tourist Trophy departs from a typical Gran Turismo game in two key areas: Firstly there are barely any modifications to the vehicles. Some of the bikes have an optional sports exhaust but these come with the bikes and there's no necessity for you to fit them. You can set up the suspension, brakes and gear ratios if you want to, but there are no power or performance increasing parts. Secondly there is no currency. You don't win cash for winning races, you win bikes. The only way to acquire new rides is to win races or challenges; you can also unlock rider gear (like helmets and outfits) through completion of events too.

The challenge mode has a roster of 93 bikes and all you need do to win the bike you're after is take part in a single race and overtake another bike of the same model within 2 or 3 laps. Unfortunately this isn't drastically different to the race mode: Most races you'll take part in will also be strictly 1 on 1, and they're always a chase scenario where you have to catch and pass the other guy. The only difference in race mode is you have to complete all the laps whether you manage to overtake or not.

You can make the game as easy or hard for yourself through one of 3 simulation modes: Standard, Semi-Pro and Pro. Standard mode has the game handling all the nuances of riding a bike automatically: Auto lean/crouch, auto rear-braking and Traction Control. Semi-Pro gives you manual control of your lean/crouch. Pro gives you manual lean control, fully independent front and rear brakes and much less TC interference. I found Semi-Pro to be the sweet spot as I couldn't wrap my head around having two brake controls that were required in every big stop: Simply stabbing both doesn't slow you down with any measure of control. You can wheelie and stoppie in all modes, although this is not a good activity to partake in if you want to win!

Visually the game is as good as Gran Turismo 4; which means it's one of the best-looking PS2 games. I'm no expert on bikes, those I'm aware of are because of their inclusion in movies or scale model catalogues; but the ones here I recognise are amazing recreations. The roster isn't huge with just over 120 bikes. All but one of the 36 courses also feature in GT4. The one outlier is Valencia circuit; this track doesn't feature in any mainline GT game being in just TT and GT PSP.

While one may scoff at the idea that the majority of the game features just 2 bike races, you don't really feel short-changed as you're thinking about a lot more things than you would be in a car racing game. This makes the riding experience interesting and I didn't miss the typically awful racing A.I. that the GT games feature. You can have up to 4 bikes in a race in the Arcade mode but these are still just chases with there being no standing start in the events I tried.

Overall I thoroughly enjoyed my time in Tourist Trophy: It's intuitive and rewarding; not just through content but when you have a strong race and know that you did everything you could with the machinery beneath you, whether you won or not. That kind of satisfaction isn't exclusive to GT games but it's a big part of why they're all great games. And Tourist Trophy can stand shoulder to shoulder with its 4 wheel stable mates: Even if you're not a massive bike fan it's still a great driving experience that you shouldn't ignore. 8.5/10
