*Which one would you pick: Manx TT or Moto Racer?* Ps, the score is 10-6 to the Playstation now, not 9-6 as stated in the video! I'm thinking we are going to have to look at a first-person shooter comparison soon. We have a few choices that spring to the front of my mind: Like-for-like comparisons of Doom, Duke Nukem 3D, Hexen, Exhumed or Alien Trilogy...or possibly Quake vs a PSone exclusive like Lifeforce Tenka?
I played both back in the day, my brother purchased Manx TT on release to play on my Saturn, I purchased Moto Racer a year later on Platinum label. After a week i was bored of Moto Racer, Manx TT on the other hand, well it was extremely popular when my friends came round, and its one i go back to it all the time, so its 7 days vs 26 years of entertainment for me at this point, so it's definitely Manx TT that gets the thumbs up for me!
I had a PC demo disc with Moto Racer on it, and would play it non-stop, but never actually bought the full game. Also, loved their "widescreen mode" was just the regular 4:3 screen with borders on the top and bottom now! :D
Manx TT is best to me, despite limited courses. Great analog control in MTT. First person mode has extreme horizon tilt, I love to play that way for a race or two.
Hmmm, i'm not a fan of manx TT, but i sometimes think you miss the point of arcade type games. Moto racer, if you decide to play through the campaign it might hold you for 4 or 5 hours, but once complete, you'll probably never play it again, manx TT was designed to be picked up and played on and off over a period of time. Arcade games, by definition, are built on accessibility and replayability, not just content to be seen once. A good example is Sega Rally, can be completed in less then 10 mins, but over the past 25 years ive put more hours into it than all the Gran Turismo games combined, and ive owned and played them all, bar 7. I look at my ps1 shelf of games, loads have lots of content, but they stay on the shelf in favour of me picking up the games i really enjoy playing, because they fundamentally play and therefore replay really well. My opinion is, and I've probably said this before, not all content is equal. On a side note, i came to this conclusion back in the day when i had an N64. I picked up Top Gear Rally, it was a new game on a new shiny bit of hardware with lots of content, but for some reason, i just wasn't having the fun i expected, at which point, i looked over to my copy of Sega Rally and realised, not matter how many tracks and cars there were in Top Gear Rally, it'll never have the content thats in Sega Rally 😀.
I understand your point of view totally, the Saturn had a lot of arcade games that were fun and great to play, Sega Rally being a great example like you said, aswell as VF2, the Virtua Cops and some others, but the Playstation ended up getting a lot of fun arcade games that had also had loads of content added to accompany the arcade modes within the games. Obviously Moto Racer is not the best example of that and the one that always springs to mind for me on the Playstation is always Soul Blade!
@gameshack1985 Soul Blade is a great game, got it as part of a double pack with Tekken 2, another great game. Sega were moving in the right direction with the Dreamcast, Soul Calibur is another great example that's pack full. Perhaps Sega were just a generation too late to the party, and ultimately too late for them to stay in the console race.
I’m enjoying this series and think panzer dragoon 2 vs omega boost, guardian heroes vs panzer bandit or nights vs Klonoa would be cool videos if your taking suggestions
More content goes a long way with me. This is why I'll prefer some games that are inferior on a technical level (Doom on the SNES vs Doom on the 32X), because there is a lot more game there.
@SomeOrangeCat Agreed. Moto Racer is by no means a bad playing game either, it was just a common flaw with so many Saturn arcade style games...no content..
@@gameshack1985 sure no game is perfect, but i think this debate of more content vs arcade style games is funny. What matters is if a game is good or not.

Great video as always, maybe Duke Nukem next to give the Saturn a chance of pulling one back 👍
Most 5th generation FPS's gave me terrible motion sickness!! 🤢
I'll have to sit the next one out!!... 😢😂
@@TH-cam-Grifter I guess I'm lucky in the sense I've never had motion sickness from a game!
Soviet strike! Best FMVs on the Saturn and a very solid release
@manueld885 Indeed, the quality of the FMV on Soviet Strike is top stuff! Really annoys me that other devs put out awful FMV on the Saturn!

Me too the demo was the Sea of Sand track and I was stunned by the beach graphics midway. 🙂
Oh my.. been playing this a lot as a kid!! So much nostalgia! LOVE IT!
Happy to drop you a like btw! Hope you have a nice week ahead! ^_^
Thanks for the comment!
@@gameshack1985 no worries, the pleasure was all ours to support you :) Take care!!

Always open to suggestions, currently limited as I don't have access to all PSone games and refuse to use emulators!
Hey!! It was already 9 - 6 to Playstation after ISS Pro 98 won last time!! Should be 10 - 6 now!!
@WayneCatlin That's why I put an amendment in the pinned comment! 😂 Glad you're keeping track too though!
@gameshack1985
Ahhh, I didn't notice the pinned comment!! (Sorry)
👍👍👍
@@TH-cam-Grifter All is good, I'm glad someone else is keeping tally too!! 😂
Moto racer in comparison with Manx TT looks like a Simpsons movie
@@pedrokripton everyone likes the Simpsons!

Moto Racer...far more everything 😉
Just played manx tt today and its always fun.
@@dragaoastro69 i just wish it had a few more courses! 😅
@@gameshack1985 sure no game is perfect, but i think this debate of more content vs arcade style games is funny. What matters is if a game is good or not.
No content in Manx TT. It's a very basic arcade game.
Very much agree. It does play good though!
