Motocross madness + gamepad

Having control problems in Motocross madness. I'm using a gamepad and every so often the bike will fail to turn for a split second, enough to cause me to go off track. Raced someone online and he complained of this as well, he was also using a gamepad. I tried three pads (phazer, gravis and sidewinder) all have this problem. I also have a Thrustmaster ACM gamecard. Any ideas or is this a known problem/bug/feature? TIA Adam

I'm getting the same problem just using a Microsoft mouse... arg! Any help would be appreaciated. Joel Joel Downs Gamers Extreme http://www.gamers.com

I'm having the same problem and so is a freind that bought it. Must be the game. If anyone knows a cure please let me know...I'm using a Microsoft SideWinder. Thanks, Gary

I'm using a GRAVIS XTERMINATOR and I have the same problem trying to turn but it almost seems exclusive to turning and accelerating at the same time. The problem seems to go away if I let off the gas before turning.

Its all about timing - sometimes i let off & sometimes i gun it in the corners - the main thing is too line up straight for the jump - sometime when you land after a big jump you bounce & your front wheel comes off the ground - giving it gas & turning when this happens will cause you to wax hard or send you off line :) i am using a keyboard - same as my gravis gamepad - maybe i need to program my analog F22 PRO ! Punching the gas after a jump also causes the tires to spin a little bit --------------- > I thought it was me all along...now I know the rest of the story...its a MS

The music in my game won't play? Whats the deal. Awesome game though! Nice setup/instruction booklet Microsoft sent with the game. They should be ashamed! I guess they'll make one in a month and ask $19.95 for it. Rich get richer....... Gary

I've tried many different things to try to help this problem, but no go. I thought it was my system or something but quess not. Sure hope someone (microsoft) can fix it!
