    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.
  2. 90
    By far, it is the best racing game I've seen on the PlayStation 2.
  3. The selection of courses is excellent, and the outdoor Enduro environments are packed with tons of thrills and secret locations.
  4. 88
    The tracks are absolutely gorgeous, as everything is rendered in excruciating detail.
  5. 87
    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.
  6. The graphics are solid, the gameplay is grand, and the possible parties are limitless.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. The only real problem is a distinct lack of creativity.
  10. 80
    When you do get in the groove, and you're timing all your jumps perfectly, this game puts you in that hypnotic trance of gaming goodness. It's a very rewarding feeling.
  11. Although ATV Offroad Fury is not a keeper for everyone, you don't want to miss playing it at least once.
  12. Da Gameboyz

    The learning curve is higher than some gamers may want.
  13. A great game for any console, with fun control and a variety of options that will keep players coming back for more.
  14. 70
    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.
  15. The ATV handles amazingly realistic and the ability to performs wheelies and other tricks makes it quite a joy.
  16. 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.
