YES! finally these fames are in aus and i went out and bought a copie yesterday! not only that but i got my spokeydokes too! be sure to look out for some up comping pics of my spokeys! ok.. so if any one wanted to know anything about this game im gonna write what i think of it.
It starts of with you(the player) being a nobody with a dodgy bike, with no sponsers and only 4-5inch. first level is bloody scary with huge drops and massive storms half way down, the combat is funny and the hills are VERY steep, some times getting 100mph. in total there are 27 playable levles and thats with out unlocking new ones. there are three different carees. super caree(with three races MX,FR,TDH in each level), specialized caree where you can unlock new riders like eric carter and richie schlie(or how ever its spelt) and custom caree where you can choose from MX,FR or TDH as a mix.

Sound track: 8/10
Graphics: 10/10
Game play:6/10
Loading: 9/10
my favorite parts of the game were playing "get retared" by black eyed peas while rushing down the cliffs of hawii or smacking heads on low hanging branches, throwing water bottles at other racers while going 80 or so mph!
of you have the money and a PS2 i suggest you go out and buy the game.. NOW!! :P

what is wrong with fose... it is better than the stupid pos foeses... because if you have two foes bikes you must have two foeses which just plain sucks, so therefore the name must be changed to fose because multiple bike whores like squidly will not need to worry about speelling with the plural of fose being foses... i will email brent foes and make him change his name....

oh and the point of this?

I LIKE SMURFS

My mate was gonna buy it so he rings up the shop and they said they have 2 copies left so we chuck down some breaky. We ring up again to make sure they still had some copies left and they said they just sold the last one.

He waited for the next shipment and after a day they were all gone.

He is getting really annoyed, i think the next shipment at the shop is on tuesday, so if they sell out he said he might as well as kill himself.

well duh, tell him to reserve a copy :roll:

11-03-2004, 06:35 PM
didnt buy it but i hired it and played it for a night,

i unlocked:
missy
lopes
carter
schely
llanes

and the special rider that you need like $50,000 to unlock
o and the deer and i got the prototypr bike which was just a specialized basically
the stupid thing i found was risse forks on the karpiel had a really high rating
what event did you get the M1 in?? and the mongoose dh bike is just ec's turner.
it was a pretty fun game, i had trouble passing the "free style" thing which is like tony hawk style challenges.

oh yea, and to finish off whats with being able to be sponsored by companys and not get anything for free, and being able to be sponsored by two bike companys in one event, like at one part i was racing as ec who is sponsored by mongoose, then i got sponsored by foes and karpiel!!!!

i have heard and from what i can tell the game is a discrace! Codemasters says that the game is only sposed to last 20 hours to pass the whole thing and they call that good, I dono what youse reckon but ive heard its too easy and who punches on the way down, is it sposed to be simulation or just plain stupid?, i know im not payin $95 for it, i'll wait till it gets to abaout half that b4 i get it!

Well they're never going to be able to replicate the real feel of riding a bike, so they have to take some other angle, they obviously chose for the novelty one. Tony Hawk's works on a similar principle, it is completely rediculous, but is a barrel load of fun, whether you skate or not.

If you want a fun, realistic mtb game you can play with your thumbs, you're dreaming.

hey and the coverthat has been posted up isn't the real cover of the game, its some guy whipping it good from shot under the bike, so watch out for that if you dont think the shops have it in...

but i think its really good ecept a few of the tracks are like bmx downhill with 100 foot gaps (jumps) and you can pull backflips to frontflips between each jump, its good with the energy bar and the whole setup with the bikes but the moves and gaps coulda been made more realistic....and who throws drinkbottles at opponents? ME ME ME ME ME ME!!!
