How it works

Graphics get a B. The tracks are spectacular, smoothly designed with plenty to do and see. The tribal tattoos are a nice touch. Crashing isn’t as exciting as it could be.

Control gets a B. Calling up the legion of tricks keeps your fingers busy, but controlling the bike around the track is easy, even at the normally frantic pace.

Sound gets another B. The pounding metal soundtrack is perfect. The bikes sound realistic, with a characteristic two-stroke drone.

“Freekstyle” gets a solid B. It’s an excellent choice to feed your need for speed, and the difficulty factor will keep you busy for the rest of the summer.
