Moto Race Challenge 08 is a motorbike racing game for Windows PC.

Moto Race Challenge 08 is a motorbike racing game with a simple set of controls, easy on the eye graphics, and lots of twists and challenges. To control the bike will require nothing more than the cursor keys on the Windows PC keyboard. Graphics are good quality and Direct X friendly. There are free challenges and tournaments for the more advanced inside the tracks of Moto Race Challenge 08.

In order to run Moto Race Challenge 08, players will need a Windows PC with 1 Ghz or better processor, 64 MB or better graphics card, 512 MB RAM, 100 MB hard disc storage space, Direct X 9.0c or higher, and Windows 98/Me/2000/XP/Vista. It may or may not work on Windows 7 and newer.

Racing on a motorbike means that care must be taken by the player to stay upright and obey the basic laws of physics - don't tip over. Speeds can reach more than 100 miles per hour, and the speed and weight of the bike affects its impact when it goes around corners. Players missing corners end up off the track and out of the race. Moto Race 08 supports online multiplayer racing as well as offline computer challenges, test tracks, and practise runs.

Some new tracks have been added to Moto Race 08 as well as more advanced bike and game controls. Realistic graphics show tire marks on the road while Direct X offers smooth rendering.

Moto Race 08 is a creation by Greentube Internet Entertainment Solutions GmbH based in Vienna, Austria. Greentube specializes in casino style games and free multiplayer games with 3D graphics. The company's management and founders all have strong backgrounds in the software entertainment industry. Thomas Graf, the company CEO has decades of experience with Research & Development, Marketing, IP and Operations Management. Eberhard Durrschmid, chief operations officer founded the company. Bernard Krczal, CFO, studied and applied his Business Computing knowledge to the team.

Founded in 1998, the company became Greentube Internet Entertainment Solutions AG in 2000. The games feature in-game advertising or the use of paid content. Reviewers generally don't make mention of in-game ads, so don't let that detract from the enjoyment of trying Moto Race Challenge 08 for the first time. After a successful decade Astra Games obtained a 70% stake in the company Greentube and by 2011 had acquired all remaining shares.

Similar games to Moto Race 08 which have been created by Greentube include Mountain Bike Challenge, Ski Jump Challenge, Ski Challenge 15, MX vs ATV, and Super Bike Racers among others. New to this edition are a wider variety of track conditions which match weather conditions, IE mud, ice, dirt and dust, etc.
