Can't wait to try this out now, its out the same time as MX as ATV Alive also so it's going to be a bike tastic weekend for sure (i'll just settle for watching the motogp ont tell I suppose).

I've already planned a full weekend of playing SBK, ignoring wife's requests to: mow lawn,tidy house up,wear pants,etc, playing more SBK,watching moto gp, playing more SBK, having huge arguement with wife, sulking, playing more SBK. Happy days ! .

i could be sarcastic and say its the same game as last year apart from full sim is like sbkx med sim,but with more cheating(so im told by players online already)

still the best bike game out there at the mo tho.

see you at the start line...but will you see me at the chequred flag???

Milestone need to address the cheating issues online, there will always be the knobs who'll take you out on purpose but it's the corner cutting that annoys most people. There's a new video on youtube showing Silverstone being raced & there looks to be some run off that could be taken advantage of, either needs "red time" or "invisible brick wall" to stop this happening.

I've already recieved my copy of SBK 2011 for the Xbox...all the way from Sheffield, UK.

Posted a few pics on ForzaCentral and a brief hands-on with the little time I've played. The short answer is SBK '11 is more of the same of SBK X with some very minor tweaks. The awful arcade mode is replaced by the SBK Tour, which is more akin to the tests in SBK '08 and the career mode looks to be the same as SBK X - it's 8 seasons long with bike upgrades via testing at race weekends. Simulation handling is somewhere between medium and full sim from SBK X and is bound to have some here moaning as a result.

If you like SBK X, you'll enjoy SBK '11.If not, nothing will have changed to sway you...other than an online mode that works!

Cheers.

Good news IMO, whilst X isn't perfect it's good to hear that milestone are "refining" rather than a wholesale rethinking (a'la monumental). Can't wait !.
