More beautiful than the game’s musical bliss however, is the controls.
-
A massive improvement over the previous Mat Hoffman title on the PSone. It’s nothing too original and it does have its flaws.
-
The visuals and sound are very well done, as the only drawback to the game is that it is very difficult to pull off tricks at times.
-
81This would have been more fun, and no less replayable, if Rainbow had dialed down the difficulty a little bit.
-
80Its improvements to the series are substantial. [Sept 2002, p.30]
-
80There's no question that it brings a lot more to the table (in every department) than the previous (PSX) version, but it still isn't perfect.
-
80It’s also a pretty damn good piece of extreme sports interactive heaven, with sweet graphics and tight control at the service of one heck of a well-coded engine.
-
80Offers no major surprises but plenty of refinements to a proven formula. It’s a major improvement over the first game.
-
Hoffman's sequel is so advanced - not just graphically - that it makes the first game feel like a bike with no chain. [Sept 2002, p.113]
-
77Slick, professional and realistic, but punctured by familiarity and frustrating controls. [PSM2]
-
Apart from having cool flatland tricks and an interesting road-trip theme, Mat Hoffman's Pro BMX 2 is rather stale.
-
A solid game, but I just wish it brought more to the genre as far as originality.
-
When you get into the game you're gonna experience a major case of "been there, done that" if you're an experienced Tony Hawk player...Other than that, Mat 2 is a killer game. [Sept 2002, p.148]
-
75A sound choice that will not disappoint.
-
The updated engine and trick system make for plenty of fun, but the irritating level setup will make all but the burliest riders drop their controllers in annoyance. However, this game is on the right track.
-
75Only pick this up if your are crazy for the O2 series of video games or are new to the genre.
-
The buttons can be unresponsive, and the pace is slower than it should be. On the upside, flatland tricks live up to the hype; you can string great combos together. [Sept 2002, p.80]
-
72The game's shallow goal design keeps it from achieving the same level of addictiveness as games like "Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3" and "Aggressive Inline."
-
70Granted the Road Trip mode can get kinda frustrating and boring, but experiencing the various levels and checking out the behind-the-scenes video footage is almost worth the aggravation.
-
If you're down for another BMXer, Hoffman 3 is without a doubt the best it gets. [Oct 2002, p.85]
-
67The problem with the gameplay lies not in the mechanics, but rather the objectives. I literally got frustrated. I couldn’t figure out what I had to do at times because the objectives were too vague.
-
A poorly implemented game idea that is by far beaten by Dave Mirra’s BMX game, which incidentally in its first incarnation had much more expansive levels than this game.
