  1. The total package. It's fun, it's involved, and it's portable. Some of you will no doubt have worries that the A.I. may be too challenging or that the career mode may be too time consuming. With regards to those concerns, my only advice is that you cowboy up.
  2. Despite unresponsive controls and average graphics riddled with a jerky frame-rate (elements that would normally kill any racing game's enjoyment) Blazin' Trails delivers a surmountable and fun but challenging struggle for first place.
  3. It's worse than ATV console games, thanks to a poor control system that's seemingly been designed with little thought for how the PSP itself is designed.

    The negative reviews from major sites for this game leave me scratching my head. The framerate is great! Yes, it slows to a crawl during a racing wipeout animation but that only lasts for less than two seconds. Otherwise, the framerate during racing, including cornering, is quite solid. And what the negative reviews do not tell you, is that during Free Run, Hot Laps and Freestyle, when you are the only rider, the framerate goes through the roof and the driving as well as the wipeouts are thirty frames a second or better. The load times are on par with THPS Remix. Overall, Blazin' Trails is challenging to be sure with very realistic physics, but that is what makes it satisfying to play. The depth is astounding. There are tuning and customization options, many tracks, lots of ATV's and gear and a fantastic handlebar cam that looks identical to the one used in ATV Off-Road Fury 2 for the PS2. I have Metal Gear Acid, THPS Remix and Wipeout Pure and this game is superior to all of them. If you like racing games with realism and depth then you won't be dissapointed with Blazin' Trails.

    I love the atv series. This game does not measure up. The controls are not the greatest, the challenges this game presents just are not worth the time. What I mean is that you have to memoriez, the lay out of the track to suceed in any race, it does not matter how good you are, the tracks are unforgiving. Maybe I am a 30 year old with the attention span of 13 year old , but I'll stick with Ridge Racer for now.....can't wait till SSX comes to the psp. Expand
