i have mx unleashed it was fun for a while but gets boring especially when something like gta comes about with everything and more to it. still it looks pretty good.
 
i race motocross and i never get bored of MX Unleashed. I'm not really excited about this game as much. I was hoping for MXU 2 not this combo crap. Quads suck, period. :crazy: 👎
 
The only thing I liked about the first one..... the Monster Trucks. :D

Oh, and the off-road pickup. Great times... 👍
 
what about the commercials? :lol: I've only seen the golf cart one anyone seen anymore. Usually only see that during Supercross on ESPN. I figure they will have a bunch like they did for MXU. They are really funny.
 
There's a pretty good demo in the new Official Playstation Magazine, which includes samples of nationals, motocross, hill climb, and machine race. Nationals and motocross haven’t changed from ATV 2 and MX Unleashed, just new tracks (though it would be cool to see some of the better tracks from previous games return). The machine race is a wide mellow track designed for the new sand rails, which handle like a cross between the buggy and trophy truck of MX Unleashed; pretty fun and easy to drive with the new cockpit view. The hill climb is pretty solid, and is more fun than just running up the bordering walls of a normal level, because of the improved mechanics and camera angle. Also notable in the demo is the option to have hand guards, so there might be other little aesthetic options in the final game. Other additions to the series that aren’t in the demo include short track races, gap jumps, online (new to MX series) and supermoto.

The game should be pretty good, because it’s made by Rainbow Studios. They made ATV Offroad Fury 1 and 2, but not 3--which is unofficially ATV Quad Power Racing 3, which was cancelled when Acclaim went under, but bought up by SCEA and published under the Offroad Fury guise. Rainbow’s other titles include Motocross Madness 1, 2, and MX Unleashed, which is part of the series by THQ that includes MX Superfly, and MX 2002 Featuring Ricky Carmichael (both by Pacific Coast Power & Light).
 
I've rode dirtbikes for years, so when something like this comes out I gotta get it. I think the quads will be cool aspect as well.

I liked MX Unleashed and I like ATV Off road, so I'm thinking I'll like this.
 
Has anyone tried this yet? I know we have been busy with GT4 and some of these games are slipping right by us.
 
The game will be cool, but the matchup is retarded. Obviously the game is very arcadish. If you did half the stuff ingame you would proably be crippled in a few hours. But quads vs. dirtbikes is just stupid. If you can keep up with a dirt bikeon a motocross track with a quad then the game is stupid. Its not even kinda possible. I will still buy the game though. I just hope that i don't ever have to use a quad to compete in a race because that will suck. I hate quads. Thats right i'm a hater. :)

i bought it yesterday and it is pretty fun, the freestyle tracks have vert ramps, and there are hill climbs that are really cool. the graphix look like the ATV OFFROAD FURRY games.

i will post more when i get more time to play ;)
 
i got it too. Its gay like i said. Cool new features i just wish there wasn't quads. They make me :crazy: I love being run over by quads 👎 :grumpy:

I bought this game and can't find any replays...what gives? Thats almost the best part about these games! How could they leave this out?
 
I play ATV3 online and it´s very fun, so I might get this one too. Anyone here tested it online on PS2? If so, is it good?
 
no replay option that i can find. That does suck! The freestyle coarses are great. oh yeah i almost forgot........quads suck! :sly: :)
 
I´ve played for a few minutes last night, it seems to be a fun game but the controller is too sensitive in my opinion, the L3 I mean. The soundtrack is good, it´s the right kind of music for these games, but they have two songs from Burnout 3 and another two songs from NFSU2. A little more search wouldn´t hurt.

Anyway, I´ll try to test it online this weekend.
