SBK 22 The Official Videogame Review - The Final Verdict

  • SBK 22 is an interesting return for a franchise that’s been gone for so many years, as it seems to combine the gameplay from Milestone’s other motorcycle racing games with the simulation focus and structure of other racers on the market, specifically the F1 series. Unfortunately, this all puts SBK 22 in an odd, underbaked place. Its lack of content outside of the so-so career mode means that there isn’t much content to see. Its gameplay is highly rewarding at very specific moments of success, but the time to get there can be frustratingly long and slow.
    It’s a beautiful game and one that gets that much more fun when you’re that much better, but for anyone who isn’t a superfan of the sport, there are other games on the market that might cater better to your tastes without the same learning curve and tedium. It’s not a bad game by any stretch, but its lack of deep content and steep learning curve make it difficult to recommend to the casual racing fan.

    First hour into this game and I felt the game was broken because it was that hard and the racing line was usually inaccurate of where to actually brake but now that I’m over 7 hours in I can actually drive a lap without crashing and get decent lap times on certain tracks, this game requires a lot of patience but is rewarding when you improve

    Others here have said it but we really are overdue for an arcade style super bike racer. I don’t want to be taking turns at 150mph but I also want to be able to complete a race without absolute perfection. Give us a balance between some realistic physics and looks and then a more lighthearted approach to racing, where in pushing to hard will lead to crashes but can still play the damn game without being a pro.. I really enjoyed Ride 4 but absolutely sucked at it and it made me stop playing because I was never making any real progress and I found it just hurt the (otherwise stunning) game

    This review just stinks of "The game is shit because I'm crap and the assists aren't enough to make me win". News flash motorbikes are hard to ride. You only have half as many wheels and brakes as a car so go figure it's going to take some learning to get good. When ride 4 came out everyone bitched about time trials being too hard and failing when you went off track. I'm no pro bike racer. Good but not great but damn was I pissed off when they patched it after the backlash as the game had no challenge and I was getting gold by 3-7 secs first try! When I was playing GT as a kid on the playstation it would literally take me days to get good enough to get gold. Back then games didn't have assists that basically play the game for you. Gaming difficulty has gotten so soft in racing games in recent years.

      i think one of the biggest reasons is a combination of the motogp license contract demanding a updated grid with the current drivers and tracks for each season and the milestone management wanting to sell a new game each year for maximizing their income instead of giving seasonal updates until a real new game is ready to release.

    The one who did this review should get fired or review games that he knows at least SOMETHING about. There are no "stronger competitors" in the genre. Not ONE. I don't know where that came from but Milestone has the monopoly in bike racing games for like 20 years. Since Superbike 2001, released by EA. Not since 2012. Game reviewers nowadays don't know anything.
    As for the other points made in this "review".....
    1) There is no "steep learning curve". The game is as simple as it can be. If there's one person out there who finds it "complex" then he/she should play nothing more than Tetris.
    2) For the fans of the sport it has been one of the most disappointing games because the copy/paste physics from MotoGP don't do SBK bikes any justice. Even Ride 4 is better.
