Ducati - 90th Anniversary The Official Videogame comes from the creators of RIDE and Ducati passion itself, and is a true spin-off, entirely dedicated to the historic Ducati brand and presenting ninety years of motorcycle legends in a spectacular and exciting videogame. The latest title from Milestone Studios boasts extensive content. The bikes themselves of course, with 39 different Ducati models included in the game, 29 of which have never before been seen in this context, divided into 7 eras, from the 1950's to the latest, high-performance Bologna-built bikes. You can race with the legendary 125 Desmo (1958) or with the 500 Pantah (1970), the beautiful 750 F1 (1980), but also with the first Monster 900 (1990) or the various evolutions of the "naked" par excellence, such as the high-performance Monster S4RS Tricolore. The Superbikes had to be incorporated of course and include the 848 (2000) and the highly exclusive 1199 Panigale Superleggera (2014), as well as the Desmosecidici GP15 ridden by Andrea Doviszioso and many Ducati production milestone models.

As spinoff of the RIDE series, a series I have a notoriously poor history with, I was expecting rebberbanding AI, a low-quality sound engine, and annoying-at-best controls. Instead, what I got was a great showcase celebrating 90 years of legendary motorcycle company Ducati.
From classic bikes to the superbikes of the 2010s, the game allows you to play through notable chapters pf the company's storied history and experience the bikes that came with it.
Despite being a spinoff of the aforementioned RIDE series, the controls are actually pretty decent this time around, with options available for the more casual type of player whop doesn't want to have to think about power-to-traction ratios every other second.
While the gameplay may start out slow with the older bikes, it quickly picks up the pace as you get closer and closer to the present day, with different types of challenges to keep you occupied along the way.
While the graphics might be on the lower end of things for the time, the sound engine perhaps not the best, and multiplayer being almost completely dead at this point, the game is a pretty decent experience if you can get it dirt cheap like I did, especially if you're looking for some super easy achievements to boost your gamersore.
