    Grand Prix Racing Realism.
    Make room for the ultimate, hi-tech linkable motorcycle racing video game available. 500GP is the real thing. Race against real Grand Prix riders. Race on real Grand Prix courses.

    So real you have to fight the wind.

    500 GP was released in February 1999 (even if the titlescreen says 1998).

    The FIA licensed successor to the Suzuka 24 games where the player chooses from three licensed courses: Jerez (Spain), Paul Ricard (France) or Suzuka (Japan). The game features authentic motorcycles from Honda (NSR500), Suzuki (RGV500) and Yamaha (YZR500). It also has likenesses of the real 500cc GP riders in the game.
