this game is amazing, if you rate it bad, it's because you are not experienced with the real world of motocross and how the machine works because this is a very realistic game!

I think that the new Reflex game is great! I have only downloaded the demo and I am already in love. The only thing that I really have to complain about is how sensitive the controls are for the reflex control. I found myself dramaticly whipping the bike or accedently sliding the bike out just from tapping the right joystick. Aside from that, I think that the game is very realistic and fun to play.… Expand

I was expecting this game to be ALOT better than I anticipated it to be. The gameplay isn't even remotely better than the older version, I don't like the fact that you have to get yourself out of a 'Pickle' so to speak, if you fall, you fall get over it. Sorry but a 4 from me

over all i found the game fantastic, the reflex system and terrain deformation are absolutley brilliant and set a standard for any new mx game to come out. the only thing keeping this game from getting a 10 is the sound of the 450's, they sound really tinny, apart from that THQ have hit the nail on the head.

The free ride maps feel immensely overwhelming in a good way, and after a few times smashing face first over the handle bars, you will want to thank THQ for finally bringing us seperate rider control. The music and presentation are both spot on, and the real-time terrain deformation is something to behold. What are you doing reading this? Get on your dirt bike and go buy this game!

As a huge fan of mx and sx this game was a must get for me, now I kinda regrett it. First off, the A.I. Is by far the most pathetic I have ever seen in any racing game........Ever. I am playing the motocarrer at all-star level and am winning races by 20.+ seconds, Its that bad. If you dont get a good start you will almost certainly get destroyed by some loony on the first corner, and if you make it past the first corner with not enough speed to clear the pack expect to get squashed by another idiot on the first jump. Its soooo bad you will want to restart the race if you find yourself last place after the 2nd corner as you will have no hope in hell of getting through the pack alive. But when you do get a good race (rarely) it is very fun. You actually see riders turing the wrong way into a corner, the wrong way, instead of left they will take a hard right and take out about 3 dudes, its just amazing ( I only race mx and sx as the other race types, omnicross etc are sooooooooooo boring.....very, very boring) The new reflex controls are pretty cool if you want to pull out some good whips and scrubs, but cornering with it is pretty much useless as it doesnt really do anything, apart from leaning back over the whoops-sections I never use it because it has a tendancy to make you very vulnerable to any small bump or ditch in the road, and you will spin out and crash and be forced to watch another amazingly bad crash physic animation. The new "terain deformation" system is pretty amazing, although I dont know how a 125cc bike can make a 4 foot deep hole in the ground. Anyway it is cool, the track changes each lap and changes the way you race aswell, race lines and rutts form and make cornering much faster, and hektik as water will rise from under the dirt. I can go on all day but basically this game has taken 5 steps forward and 3 steps back from the last one, the graphics are meh and the sound is exactly the same. If you love mx and cant wait to see the 2010 AMA championship get it, if you are just looking for a cool race game with trucks, get dirt2. Go Chad Reed!… Expand

While the events within the game are nothing to write home about; the beautiful tracks, unique 'Reflex' control, and the (sometimes) tense off-road action make it a nice addition for any racing fan's library.
