Graphics: 9/10
The Graphics in this game are really good. There are many graphics features in this game, imagine that when you drive over sand your wheels becomes dirty or when you hit somebody you see those little sparks... there are also good weather options like drive in rain,storms,cloudy weather. stuff like that. I really like the rain option because the road is slippery then and you can slip and fall and the real fun out of moto games is to drive onto other drivers :). Kidding of course... but the its one of the most fun parts in moto games, and SB 2001 makes it more enjoyable. The championship option is just like SuperBike 2000 also, all scenarios from the old games were kept and its kind of fun. (Note: Those Screenshots were taken with FSAA off. so imagine the graphics with FSAA on :)
Music: 6/10
Pretty plain music in the game :( shame... could get the game much better with some good music, although engine sounds are very good they don't cover up for the good loss of music...
Gameplay/Controls: 9/10
Controls in the game are very good, very easy to get on first run. Controlling the motorcycle is the hard part very tough to get on sharp turns after hitting the keyboard (lucky I missed it or there will be no more keyboard for me :) but now hand my hurts and I got pissed off to be the last driver again while all other drivers are 2 laps ahead of me. oh well... that's life.
Overall: 8.5/10
Get this game if you can, if you like Moto games (i.e. MotoCross 2, Moto-x) then its a must. If you're not driving genre fan then prolly it may appeal you for a while but then it will get boring pretty fast, only for Mad-Drivers!
Nothing more to say!
