Brings two good games together to make a great game, along with some improvements to the series.
User Rating: 8.3 | MX vs. ATV Unleashed PS2
I haven't played MX Unleased, but I own ATV offroad fury 2. I really liked that game, especially the rock soundtracks, as I do in this one as well. This game seems to me a double buy, you get MX unleased and ATV offroad fury. But not only that you get to race them against each other. You can also race other vehicles like buggies, golf carts, and monster trucks, although you have to unlock them. There are tons of other unlockables in this game, inluding racing figures, more tracks, gear, and harder difficulties. There are tons of tricks you can do, and they are important because they earn you store points, which allows you to buy unlockables. Although it's not absolutely necessary to do them, as you unlock things by winning races, you just won't unlock things as fast. It does take a lot of points to unlock most things, around 5000 and up to 250,000 for bikes and tracks. That means it might take a while considering you get 1000 for most tricks. Some of the tricks are particularly hard to do and need a good amount of hang time. The training videos are better there than not, but I wish they would show what buttons to push when they are showing them instead of just telling you what to push. One thing that I was hoping I would see in this new game was weather. If it's in there I didn't get to it. We all love ATVs and motorcycles spinning dirt and I thought weather would be a great addition over the previous games. The graphics are more or less the same as the previous games, although you can get 480i and 480p high definition, so thats a plus. The sound is basically the same as previous games as well with good engine sounds and definately good soundtracks.
