    Good news, everyone: The Earth has once again completed its celestial lap 'round the Sun! You might have other manners of measuring the start/stop times of the Julian year, but we prefer our method, which is to wait for Capcom to announce the next MotoGP game. That happened earlier today, when the publisher revealed March 2011 will see the 360 and PS3 release of MotoGP: Hyper Wheelz of Fury 2: Sword of Suzuki. No, no, that's not true at all. It is, of course, titled MotoGP 10/11. According to Capcom, MotoGP 10/11 will keep in line with its predecessors by delivering "all the content from the 2010 MotoGP season and offer downloadable updates for the 2011 MotoGP championship shortly after the season starts." You'll be able to play through said content with a friend, as the game will add a local splitscreen co-op mode, which lets a fellow biker join your MotoGP team to help take top honors in championship races. We expect the occurrence of Talladega Nights-esque slingshot maneuvers will increase tenfold once this new feature is implemented. %Gallery-107155%

    Speaking to CVG, MotoGP lead designer Greg Bryant discussed the future of the series on both the Xbox 360 and PS3. Bryant said the development team plans to incorporate Natal support into MotoGP 10/11 in order to implement head tracking. According to Bryant, "the future for [Natal] is through head tracking in racing games." As for future iterations on the PS3, he noted that the team plans to use stereoscopic 3D and "theoretically" enable head tracking with the Playstation Eye. Honestly, if it turns out anything like this, consider us stoked.
