ok, a lot has been said about this game, and after purchasing it, i hope to give you the truth about BMX:XXX. basically, if you like bmx games its a good game. however, the graphics are poor, with cut scenes resembling something from incredible crisis on ps1. in game graphics are better, but not much. rider graphics are impressive but background is nothing to admire. tricks are good with a huge range available, and probably the best thing about this game is the flatland tricks you can perform.However, grinds and balances are far too easy to keep a hold of. Rider falls are ridiculous, with the rider suddenly turning into a very bouncy rag doll. these look unrealistic, but they are not a major problem. The ps2 version of this game contains no nudity at all, just some bad language. Nothing you wouldn™t hear in a 15 rated film. The 18 tag on this game is unnecessary. the soundtrack is good, with tracks like `My Friends Over You` by New Found Glory. Multiplayer games are not what i expected. Strip BMX consists of achieving ridiculous combos, and trying to beat them over and over. When this has been done, the rider is left with bra and panties on, and it goes no further(on the ps2 version). and with only 3 pieces of clothing needed to be taken off to achieve this, the game has a disapointing end to all that time spent getting a 14-trick combo just to beat the opponents score. Paintball BMX can be fun, but only when the rider is in your view, seeing as the player who is firing is immobile and can only shoot the other person if they choose to come into view. Levels are also large and impressive. Overall, this game is well worth buying for the jokes and tricks, but if your just looking for some cheap thrills, then keep away.
