Default SBK09 on PS3

Arrived as a rental today and quite enjoying it.


Pros:
Tracks are rendered very well.
Weather effects are the best I've seen.
Handling seems ok but I'm not a biker so can't really comment. You give it beans on a corner you'll skid but can be catchable.
Challenges and Scenarios are nice, more would be good.
Switched off rookie mode fairly early, advanced suits me with the right balance of challenge/frustration.

Cons:
Menus are clunky and a bit slow.
You can be in the garage, skip a session, it kicks out to a list of times and a busy icon, you OK that eventually and it takes ages to get you back in the garage.
To many notifications while it's writing to disk, always in threes - don't touch, accessing data - don't touch, writing data - don't touch accessing data. Each with it's own audible clunk and screen flash.
Trophies are very specific, would be nice if they mostly were linear with progress.
Yuo have to race as a current rider, can't put in your own name.

So once racing, fine, between racing, annoying.

Bottom line for me - slow burner to be dipped into, worth a punt when it hits the 15-20 quid range.
