does anyone own it ? and if you do for PS2 can you tell me how good it is ?

I haven't bothered to spend for a PS3 yet as the Australian model doesn't have backwards compatibility and I am after another motocross game,

MX vs ATV Reflex looks like it wont make it to PS2 so I was looking at Motorstorm, personally the original one looked the best but Arctic Edge is the only one to make it to PS2

I have MX vs ATV unleashed and untamed if you need something to make a comparison, Im wondering if it meets the level of those games ?

I saw it in a shop too, but I went for PS3 version and Need For Speed Shift. I can tell you that it is very good, but when you are starting out, the steering might feel weird.
As in other vehicles have slower turning than others(bikes have very sensitive steering whilst Big rigs are very slow) and other vehicles move better on specific surfaces(Big rig moves better in mud than a Rally Car, aka not much traction)

Well I played the first 2 games and if this game is similar to those then I would highly recommend it.

its it possible to do stunts of the MX, ATV and/or Snowmobile ?

trumpetguy · « **Reply #6 on:** November 06, 2009, 08:27:36 PM »

The other games you don't do stunts it's basically crash or win and the crash scenes always=win especially if your driver falls out of the vehicle and gets crushed, so much fun. For me however, I found it hard causing my opponents to crash.

I have Seen it on shop, and I have MX vs ATV untamed:Good game! :D

we should really start a separate topic but have you played unleashed ? they both have good things the others dont but I was disappointed to see untamed didnt have the real bikes

Jonzu95 · « **Reply #10 on:** November 07, 2009, 11:02:23 AM »

Yes, I have played it, I did once a 4x Backflip!! Maybe my favourite is Buggies or ATV:s.

JoeBlo · « **Reply #11 on:** November 07, 2009, 08:44:00 PM »

ATV's are easier to nail heaps of flips because you can land on the front wheels

I have done a 5x with an MX on the ski ramp on Untamed but I think it was 3x at most anywhere else

my favorites and MX's and Monster Trucks :P

5x volt!? How? O_O

JoeBlo · « **Reply #13 on:** November 08, 2009, 04:31:24 AM »

use the Ski Ramp on Untamed, Suspension load off the little ramp so you land on the down side of the ski ramp then full suspension load off the ramp and a lucky landing on the front wheel :P

I would recommend trying Dirt 2 it is a little different then what you are looking for but it is truly a great game. And the graphics are amazing.

Jonzu95 · « **Reply #15 on:** November 10, 2009, 05:16:16 AM »

I'm hoping that I will get that to my Wii on christmas!

I would love to but I only on a PS2, Im a ken block fan so I have heard a bit about it.

Im not bothered on PS3 yet as the austalian model(s) dont have backwards compatibilty for a stupid an unexplained reason

for me I own 80+ genuine PlayStation 2 games so I dont want to bother buying something that wont play any of those games

I don't have a PS3 or 360, but planning to get them, or at least one. So far my collection is a: Wii, Gamecube, PS1, PS2, DS, GBA.
