Electric Playground

Arguably the finest motocross game available thanks to its racing and freestyle gameplay offerings--and new additions to last year's game.

IGN

Be sure to get the GCN version of the game and not the PS2 one -- it runs and looks noticeably better.

GameSpy

A well-rounded, deep, and diverse title. The graphics and sound in the GameCube version surpass those found on the PS2.

GameSpot

MX Superfly may get bogged down from time to time by the overabundance of minigames, but behind that small obstacle is a motocross game with great gameplay and solid audiovisual presentation.

GameZone

MX Superfly is the best motocross game currently out for the Gamecube, and arguably any 128bit system, so a recommendation is inevitable.

Although entertaining, MX Superfly lacks that consuming compulsion to see, perform, and unlock everything, but it is worth a rental if the words ‘Yamaha’ and ‘Honda’ excite you.

Game Informer

This series has lots of potential, but has yet to live up to it. [Sept 2002, p.85]

Gamer's Pulse

While none of these modes excels to a great degree, the sum of the different play modes is quite a lot of fun.

The overall riding experience is really flat. [July 2002, p.148]

Play Magazine

There is one thing I absolutely loathe, and that's the super-hyper-lame-ass "ooh-yeah" and "woo!" they feel necessary to slide in every time you pull off anything even remotely cool, and the similar "what the?" and "careful!" every time you get bumped. [Sept 2002, p.73]

D. P. gave it an8:
Great fun. Graphics are amazing. Tricks are easy to pull off. Lots of tracks and mini-games. Nice track editor - you can create your own Evel Knievel scenarios.

Ryan M. gave it an 8:
Not too bad for a biker game. The trick system is pretty poor, but it's backed up by good graphics, decent unlockables, and a pretty high replay value.
