Most bikes turn over after the first or second try, but apparently these bikes don't, because every rider kicks and kicks and kicks before the race. Graphically, the best aspect of this game is that there is no draw in, so the entire track is visible all the time. Unfortunately, this leads to the worst graphics problem of the game, which is a completely unacceptable frame rate. It's not as if the frame rate is good some of the time, but when too many riders are on screen things start to slow down. It's more like the frame rate is mediocre to begin with, nowhere near the rates seen on racing games running on the supposedly inferior Playstation hardware, and then just gets progressively worse the more action we see on screen.
Sound effects are similarly lackluster.
The 125cc and 250cc engines used in these bikes produce an admittedly wimpy sound in real life, which is duplicated decently well here, but the problem with engine effects is that they don't seem to correspond with what's happening in the game. Accelerate for a bit and you'll hear your engine start to wind up. Let off the throttle, and it'll continue to sound as if you're accelerating before surging back to an unsteady idle again. Music is a vast selection of bad heavy metal and punk tracks, complete with angry lyrics suitably garbled thanks to whatever compression Acclaim is using to fit all that wasted space on the cartridge. Another big problem with this game is the controls, which don't quite work right, and don't come close to giving a sensation of riding a motorcycle.
