SBK ‘08

by World of Simulation on April 27, 2008

SBK ‘08 is due to be released in either May or June this year (depending on which web sites you read) and the official web site is beginning to take shape. It’s still under construction, but is worth a look.

Being an avid bike rider and follower of both MotoGP and World Superbikes, I’ll be first in line come release date.

SBK 08 is the official videogame of the Superbike World Championship and it will allow the player to enter the fantastic SBK championship. The game is, in fact, fully licensed and simulates every aspect of this world.

“SBK-08 is a highly customizable realistic experience”.

As a matter of fact, realism is still SBK-08’s distinguishing trademark, where realism is about replicating the real Superbike experience. It grants you all the sense of speed, danger and glamour of the Superbike races.
The player has the possibility to choose from the 2008 official riders, teams and tracks, but also to improve the performances of his bike, managing and tuning a lot of aspects like top speed, gear ratios, suspension stiffness, and set of tires for single race.

“SBK-08 is fun and accessible for everybody”.

SBK-08 features a deep simulation mode that aims to capture the attention of “bike enthusiasts” who perfectly know every aspect of tweaking a bike. At the same time the revised full arcade mode gives the player the opportunity to understand the complexities of bike riding by introducing complexity in layers. The arcade mode of SBK-08 will fit their needs giving them a 100% enjoyable and fulfilling experience, void of any frustration.

I cant wait to see this on the 360. I have owned every bike sim to come to market. I see the potential in SBK07 and MotoGP07 and with the backdrop of Superbike 2000 & 2001, Milestone seems to bee in a can’t miss situation. I hope the personalization achieved in MotoGP07 (Climax) and MotoGp-4 (Namco) is not lost on Milestone. Nothing is more fun than painting your own bike and taking a stuggling team and building it to the premier class and winning it all, including sponsorship deals and parts.

Come On Capcom errrrrr….. Milestone, we know you can do it!

Yes, it’ll be interesting to see what they do with it. I’m a “real world” bike and bike racing fan myself, so I’m looking forward to trying it out.
