No Second Prize
There is indeed no second prize in this race between 6 of the world’s toughest
riders. First prize is the one remaining model of the greatest motorbike the
world has ever seen, incidentally.
The graphics are polygon based, with lots of roadside detail, and leaning into
corners to maximise turn-in leads to the graphics to tilt appropriately. The
control is mouse-based, allowing for slight adjustments to be made and
ensuring that the controls are realistic but not impossible. As well as your
five rivals, there are lots of Sunday riders on the roads, distinguished by
having brown bikes, so make sure to avoid these.
This was one of the first games to feature video-style replays, allowing you
to find the exact moment you want to replay, from any part of the race, and
view it at normal speed, double-speed, or freeze-frame. The camera angles on
offer here include one that follows the bike, one that views the track from
the side, and a TV-style chase view.
