TUTORIAL
The first time you play MotoGP 08 you may wish to try the tutorial mode. This will help you decide what motorcycle and racing style suits you best. To enter tutorial mode, toggle the option to START TUTORIAL and press. The tutorial plunges you immediately into an arcade race but will offer hints and tips from the start. To access the tips, enter the pause menu by pressing START.
From here you will be able to alter the racing model (from 'Arcade' to 'Advanced' or 'Simulation'), change transmission options or leave the tutorial mode entirely. You will also be given the option to gain live tips whilst in the tutorial mode. With this option activated, the game will judge your riding style and offer help and advice wherever needed. MAIN MENU
CAREER
Career mode challenges you to create and develop a new rider over five racing seasons with the aim of becoming the ultimate MotoGP champion. You will be able to choose a team and bike class at the beginning of each season for your customized rider. As you win races, stronger teams will be interested in recruiting you for the following season. New teams and helmets will become available as your rider progresses.
QUICK RACE
Choose your favorite track, rider, difficulty level, bike class, riding model ('Arcade' to 'Advanced' or 'Simulation'), transmission type, number of laps and weather conditions. Then hit the tarmac and don't look back. TIME ATTACK
This option challenges you to set the best time at each circuit, competing against yourself to shave vital seconds off your record. Make your selections for circuit and rider then start racing. You are given the option to have a ghost rider who will appear after the first valid lap you complete. This ghost follows the line taken on your previous fastest lap, enabling you to judge where best to gain time. A ghost displaying your fastest line around each circuit is always available so you can keep chasing and keep improving.
CHAMPIONSHIP
Championship Mode allows the selection of any class, rider and team. It enables you to compete in, and re-create, the 2008 season. Practice and Qualifying modes are optional whilst options including weather, difficulty, number of laps and handling model are available to help you better define the season.
Before each race there is the option to alter the mechanical set-up of your bike. This includes changing tires, suspension settings and gear ratios. You will also be able to check rider standings, see where your rider ranks in the championship and view individual performance statistics. The option of practicing the circuit solo in free practice mode is available.
