I think I'm gonna pass on this as well. 1200 points is too much for this game, and it doesn't even play as well as it does on the PC.

If it turns up on the deal of the week, I may reconsider...

Right, maybe I'm just a bit thick, but what the hell are you supposed to actually do in this game?

I played the first two tutorial missions and all you seemed to do was hold down the right trigger. What am I missing?

You are supposed to make it to the end of the levels without crashing and burning. That's about it. But the levels are laid out in such a way that they will make your brain hurt trying to figure out how to make it to the end in one piece. They put glass panes, pieces of wood, metal etc in the way so you have to fiddle around with your speed and angle etc.

It's extremely fun and extremely frustrating as well.

I personally thought the SAME exact thing, that this is Excitebike 2009. Exactly, except WAY WAY better than I ever could have imagined it to be.

I basically can dominate on Beginner & Easy, and then it is pretty much ALL down hill from there. :laugh: I am basically still on some of the later levels in Medium, have not even bothered with anything above that yet, and I honestly just cannot see me getting Gold on most of them, cause gold means 0 faults, and I just do not see it happening before I lose my mind.

So as much as I absolutely love the game, it is also one of the more frustrating games I have played in a long, long time. At times it is the good kind of frustrating, as I happen to really find an appeal in practice makes perfect type games and nailing the "ultimate run," but at other times it just sucks as it is so damn annoying. LOL

And I also see why no custom tracks have been made. I played around with the Editor today and while it is not incredibly hard to use, it is also not super easy to use either and I just do not thing I personally have the patience to get a track done myself.

What else... Oh, love the replay option, just so cool how you can see the top persons run, helps alot.

Skills are also fun, but some of them I am just like dumfounded lost with. Like the stairs one, even when I watch my top Friend on the leaderboard's run to see what needs to be done, when I do it, just does not work...

Which reminds me, a HUGE AMOUNT OF RESPECT to RatherLargeBear. DAMN Man, you are truly a pro at this game, my hats off to you and your domination on the skills and higher levels.

Only thing, I would have loved to see that Amazon coupon before I purchased it which I did not, as while I do not think $15 was really to much, I do feel if I paid $10 it would have been a perfect price for it.

Trying to decide whether to get this, or save for shadow complex. Oh the dilemma.

That was my dilemma as well, as I am getting Shadow Complex without a doubt, but I can say without even playing Shadow Complex that they are two very, very different games.

If that amazon deal NoLimit06 posted a few pages back is still active, I would use that. $10 is a great price for this game. It is.

It's now $15 on that link.

It is $15 but you get $5 mp3 credit on their music store. I bought it through amazon but haven't gotten the mp3 coupon yet. In any case, I can pay directly pay by credit card (Y) instead of MS points (N).
