Online Extra

Realism is both the strength and weakness of this motorcycle racing title. Riding a bike in real life isn't easy—nor is it in Riding Spirits. You must control shifting and rider lean during turns. Players can choose from more than 200 different motorcycles and select their rider's helmets, jackets, and pants. Career mode is very deep and offers plenty of replay value. Unfortunately, the two-player mode is only one-on-one (there are no computer-controlled racers), which makes the game feel less like an actual race experience.
