![]() Yes, there's nudity. Yes, the language is coarse. However, neither of these make the game any better. We still have a basic BMX game based on tricks and challenges that other games have done and done better. The basic engine is ripped right from Dave Mirra and only removes the time limit, now a common practice among other games. Oh, the graphics and sound? Well, the game looks exactly like Dave Mirra and the soundtrack is ripped right from the other 40 or so extreme sports games.
As a GAMER, I'll have to admit that the gameplay really isn't that bad. It's the exact same engine used in Dave Mirra 2 with little or no improvements. The camera is still buggy and grinding on rails is way too easy. The thing is that most people who pick this game up won't care about this stuff anyway. Of course, once those people find out that 90% of this "extra" content is locked away under nearly impossible challenges, most will move on. |
