PiBoSo - MX Bikes

Post by Duke »

A different type of race sim but looks damn good even at this early stage. :yes:
MX Bikes is Piboso’s fourth title in development, following Kart Racing Pro, World Racing Series, and GP Bikes. The title is planned to be open ended, allowing for additional bikes and circuits to be created by the community. Features such as terrain deformation and online racing are planned for the title, but may not make it for the title’s initial release, and will be added in a later patch.

This guy must have a short attention span. He releases a new "sim" every 6 or so months.

Wonder if he'll ever see one through.

he seems to make concepts... and relies on others to take the batten and run with it.

The video is not too bad, the guy's posture on the bike is good, could do with being a little looser though. I need to start building my speedway bike for a go :P

I'd be interested to see what he could do with a speedway bike. As always, controlling a bike is so much harder to simulate on a PC than a racing car!

It's like QWOP for bikes!

Now... it is not easy using a combination of a wheel and keyboard. Maybe this will inspire me to get my custom motorbike controller sorted out!!

Just found this one which was uploaded 2 days earlier than the other one I posted yesterday.
Far out it looks good & shows real potential, be great to see it racing other bikes.
