Give it a year and everyone will be doing it. 12 months from now you'll be call him a revolutionist!

Rik - if he can huck 200 feet to flat, I think he's talented enough to do runs on his hubs, let alone need to cover his brakes. :P

bighitter

09-12-2003, 09:38 PM

ELX

09-12-2003, 09:46 PM

He's only not covering his brakes cause he knows they dont have any cables so they wound't do anything anyway. :D

I have no official date for the game guys. I'm not sure if this means its going to be a while before we see it, or it won't be released in Aus at all. I might ring our buyers today to see ;)

One Big Mistake

13-12-2003, 01:42 PM

this game is actually really cool. theres so many bikes and a bunch of pros and made up people, the graphics are sweet and even though you can do the 300 foot drops to flat, its still really fun to play. most of the MX and slalom courses are kickass and the downhill and freeride runs are sweet theres lots of stuff to ride on. the soundtrack sucks though..but theres bonus movies that are sweet and lots of crap to change/upgrade. theres like 27 levels or something..and those forks on the yeti are dorados :roll:

Dicky

19-12-2003, 04:44 PM

looks like we've got a video game in the true sense of the word on its way... finish the championship, upgrade your rig, arse around, go exploring off course, do silly unrealistic stuff. Mad.

looks like a bit of a cross between Motocross Madness (hucks to flat) and Dave Mirra (silly unrealistic stuff).

back at school, myself and a few mates went around installing the demo version of Dave Mirra from the network, then had a bit of a comp in free periods to see who could pull off the most ridiculous trick. My best effort was a "suicide no hander triple barspin superman indian 720". Yeah i landed it. Don't know how the keyboard's doing though...

looks like similar antics are on their way again.... sweet....

19-12-2003, 05:11 PM

..and those forks on the yeti are dorados :roll:

looks like an 04 shiver

Guys, I've got an advanced copy of this game for the next 4-6 weeks, as there is no confirmed released date or pricing (despite what you may hear) I can garentee it will be out in the next 3 months and be under $100.

Thats about as informitive as I can be on release details, but any questions on the game play?

09-02-2004, 05:48 PM

My mates have played it in the states, and said it is rediculosly fun, despite the whole un real-ness of it all. They say, apart form sitting on their bikes, its the most fun they've had sitting on their arses.

matty2004, you can't buy the PS2 emulator for Xbox.

You need a chipped Xbox, then you need to download the source code for the emulator and compile the software yourself.

It's not really that good anyway, converting PS2 code to Xbox code and then playing the game takes too much processing power.

Chilli

10-02-2004, 12:30 PM

is it coming out on PC?
i cant be stuffed buyin a ps2 just for one game
