Did anyone download this demo off www.3dfiles.com and play it? Altho my sound didnt work (sblive) and the game slowed down at times (on a 464mhz no less)... the game showed alot of promise. I think it got better feel than motocross madness and really depicted motocross racing accurately. It has several of the World GP moto tracks and has TC/IP and ipx protos on network playing... Try it out if you like motocross racing..

I downloaded it and I loved it! It great! I also noticed kinda of a little slowdown at times (450 celeron) but I still think it kicks ass! I havent bought any games lately (been doing the try before you buy warez) but I definately fork out some cash for this one! This game definately shows a lot of promise and I had no problem with the sound. I wish the demo had joystick support though playing on the keyboard kinda sucks!

I also tried it. Very nice. My wheel and pedals worked, so a joystick should too. It is in the options area. Only problem with the wheel, I didn't at first blush, see an area to define my wheel/stick inputs. So, since I have an older T2, the gas produces a down motion, not a problem in Papyrus sims, but SCGT(until the split axis patch) and now ETM required me to use the brake to accelerate and the gas to brake...very confusing..I liked the chunks of rocks being thrown at me when I was close behind someone. AI was a little too reminicent(sp?) of the old Pole Posistion days when you fell, everyone ran into you. And I'm not a big fan of the tunnel track approach, where the invisible walls keep you on the track. Moto Cross Madness had some huge problems with thier track layouts, but at least you had full freedom to miss a turn and go off course to get back in the race. dave henrie ps, the handle bar view was screamingly fast on my P225 mmx using D3d and a voodoo1.

Yes, it's pretty cool. It needs a little bit of polishing, IMO, but there is lot of promise there. I was playing with the keyboard since I didn't want to use my wheel, and the control with the keys is extremely sensitive in the behind bike view. Using the on-bike view seemed to help calm it down. I'm an avid dirt rider, so I love all the MX games that are coming out. This one and MXMadness 2 both have lots of promise. I thought it was funny the way they altered the names to get out of licensing the bikes... Hond, Suzuky, Kawasaky... heh. A lot of the rider names are extremely reminiscent of real GP riders names, too. Tim
