How does it compare to the other SBK games? I heard great things about SBK, but I when I got it I wasnt that thrilled with the physics engine. but, I am comparing it to TT

TT, the old playstation game? i love that game, even though they left out the rc51 which i was riding at the time. sbk is a hard game to find, at least compared to the moto gp games. i don't hate moto gp, but sbk, especially the superstock series, is much more relatable. moto gp is to motorcycles what F1 is to production cars.

that being said, sbk x is whatever you want it to be. there are two different career modes. one is arcade, the other is simulation. arcade career is where the physics are given liberties and you can powerslide around corners and go balls out. simulation career is hardcore realism where bike set-up and smooth lines are mandatory for finishing races. the amount of tuning and involvement in your bike is ridiculous, where set up for each track is paramount. a couple clicks of rebound and a gearing change can be the difference between winning and being last.

graphics are great, all the sbk riders are present and the bikes all have their own unique sound. the suzuki's whine, triumph daytona burble, ducati's growl is all in there. they even sampled the r1's crossplane sound. if you can find the game, grab it. i tried to pre-order it from gamestop back in february and they didnt even know what i was talking about, told me it was a UK only game. sbk is huge over there. happened to see it on the shelf about a month ago and picked it up. great game.
