As always, Ride is a good starting point for Milestone, an encouraging debut for a new IP, with a solid foundation from which (re)starting, but also other aspects to be improved in the future. Definitely worth buying if you're a motorbike enthusiast.
Great game I love realistic racing games like this and I think motorcycles are cooler than cars.

it has different types of simulation modes for your skill level
you can do a wheelie which is awesome
you can buy parts to improve your car

cons.
none
So i Own this for PC and thought the PC version looks better Im having a lot more fun with people online so I would recommend this to anyone for single player and a lot of fun on multiplayer!! AI isnt very difficult though
Studio Milestone has specifically aimed for the motor experience and the assortment of motors. Ride offers enough content for motorfans to enjoy, but any other element that can make or break a racing game seems not that thought through.
RIDE gets you the closest to the feeling of riding a motorbike possible with a controller in your hands, but is neither an exciting racer nor a particularly impressive looking PS4 title.
It seems like the developers of RIDE have a passion for motorcycle culture, as evidenced by the narrator's enthusiastic burblings and plenty of descriptive loading screen text, but they lack either the necessary budget or the level of technical know-how to bring that passion into the final product. The mediocre graphics could easily be forgiven if the rest was up to snuff, but the absurd loading times, glitches and lack of polish and speed kill it at the starting line.
This is the first game to keep me up all night so far on the PS4. It is a brilliant attempt at a Gran Turismo type racer with bikes. Sadly many great bikes have been missed out and there is something for everyone but unfortunately many of the numbers are just different versions of the same bike, but that is the same with any GT incarnation and it is not without its faults. The handling might take an hour to get to grips with but it is very rewarding once you do.
However, if you love racers or are into bikes and are fed up waiting for Project Cars this is well worth a look.
Ride does what it has to do and it does it remarkably well. The phisics are good, the bike selection is great and the game overall motivates being played. If I have complaints with this, it's the limited track selection for original circuits.
Overall, I think Milestone should have got more credit for Ride because it's really a nice game and the first since Tourist Trophy that follows that Gran Turismo for bikes approach.
from the yearly MotoGP developer Milestone, this guys really managed to get it on to current gen, and we needed some customizable game with real things from the world, tou can customize even your leaning position, i like it a lot, it drives great, very realistic handling/physics, and there's a lot of bikes including the ones i have
This game is real real great in some aspects. I have been playing bike games ok consoles for many years now, and I have been waiting for a street bike racing simulator for ages. I have to sat this is the most fun motorcycle game I ever played. Bikes look excelent, upgrades are simple and straight forward but pretty cool, physics and handling are superb. As usual Milestone games have several weak points: Sounds are real poor sometimes, music is mediocre, graphics other than the bikes are poor and menus look tacky. However this game would have been MUCH more enjoyable, if they'd put better effot into poloshing the game. RIDE is FULL of all kind of bugs and crashes. You might not notice at first, but after several hours of gameplay youll realize how terrible it is, seriously... Please fix these bugs guys! This is such a great game!
