Yeah! I bought RIDE but just couldn't get into it. I'm not nearly as much of a bike fan as a car fan, but I had been hoping for another game that can make bikes as much fun as they were in PGR, hopefully DriveClub can deliver. I'll be buying it today for sure.
Looking on the PS4 store, there are pretty much more bike games than car games... Motto GP, motorcycle club, ride, the Crew expansion adds bikes, etc....
Not for me I'm afraid, good on the guys who like the 2 wheeled variety but it's a big letdown for me, nothing new for us car addicts ?? After all the hype too

Yeah, but at least several of them are of questionable quality. RIDE is okay in the handling department as far as I'm concerned, but clunky and slow menus, bland sounds and underwhelming tracks.
Motorcycle Club I haven't tried, but the ratings are dire.
Moto GP is not really my thing - I'm not a big fan of the racing superbikes, and the real world race tracks start looking rather bland once you've seen them a few thousand times in assorted racing games.
I enjoyed The Crew for a while - but almost exclusively for it's huge world, handling just doesn't feel great even for a pure arcade racer, and I guess that's quite likely to carry over to the bikes.
That's all I really wanted to see from the PGW show. Good God that looked awesome. I'm having high hopes for this expansion as Takamasa Shichisawa (the producer of Tourist Trophy) has apparently worked on DC.
Well, judging by the polarity here and on Twitter, they were never going to please everyone (an impossible ask really) but as many people appear to be happy about bikes as aren't. I'm sure that the bikes aren't the only update either.
I missed that part of the show, so thanks @doblocruiser for posting the vid.
