When we're this in love with a game about silly four-wheeled pleasure machines for the suicidal, you can bet something really special is going on.

By far, it is the best racing game I've seen on the PlayStation 2.

IGN

It's graphically solid in almost every way -- the framerate is smooth, the textures and models are sharp, the animation never fails -- and the physics model works to create a game that's both deep and playable.

The eye-catching graphics, tight control, and enjoyable gameplay of this fine game really caught me by surprise. To all the PS2 users disappointed with the system's lackluster games, I highly suggest picking this title up.

To all the PC nuts that are reading this, imagine "Motocross Madness 2" with 4 wheels and you know what to expect from this PlayStation 2 classic.

While ATV and offroad junkies will delight in Fury's deep, challenging action, its appeal isn't mainstream enough to reel in the average racing fan.

The ATV handles amazingly realistic and the ability to performs wheelies and other tricks makes it quite a joy.

The game's arcade feel may discourage those looking for an off-road racing sim, but most everyone else will find it to be a fun pick up and play game.

Matt B. gave it a 9:
This game is great! You can race against the computer in Maxxis, or just ride the mountains in Freestyle, or you can go checkpoint to checkpoint. I love riding four wheelers and I know how they ride, and this game is very realistic! pull back to pop a wheelie, pull back and forward when you hit a jump, the tricks are done in real life, it all works out to make one Hell of a game! I prefer this game to any one who likes having fun, and loves Zero Gravity. Well keep it up metacritic!
