Motocross Madness 2 (MCM2) comes with five different race types: supercross, nationals, baja, stunt quarry, and the all-new enduro type of race. Another really.
Motocross racing is an exciting sport that has been gaining some well-deserved respect of late (c.2000). The maneuverability, balance and overall knowledge the riders must possess to be successful is very high. Games like Motocross Madness 2 give those of us who want to experience the sport a chance to see what it's all about with bones intact. With Motocross Madness 2, there's no need to worry about hurting oneself by performing the insane jumps and tricks that are possible. And, trust me, they are insane!
Tricks like Superman, Cliff Hanger, the (appropriately named) Heart Attack, Big Kahuna and many others are part of what contribute to the title Motocross Madness 2. As exciting as the tricks are, they're not the focus of the game, however. Winning the race is what counts. In Motocross Madness 2, there are tournaments, practices, single events and pro circuits. In addition, the game contains stunt and endurance levels as well as emulated Motocross events in stadiums. To start, the Baja levels are definitely recommended. These show arrows at the bottom of the screen to let you, the new racer, know where you are going.
There is a very good amount of variety throughout the different levels of Motocross Madness 2. The tracks range from the deserts of the Baja to the dirt tracks of the pro circuit, with lots in between. The different textures of the surfaces affect your bike accordingly. For example, things tend to be quite a bit more slippery on the dirt tracks of the pro circuit compared to those of the hard desert.
One addition that would have been welcome is weather. With the lack of this key feature that affects many sports (think of a football game without the option of snow), Motocross Madness 2 doesn't feel as complete as it should. With varying weather options, the environments could have been greatly altered and gameplay expanded. Instead of having clear paths to the finish line, you'd be forced to come up with a strategy to evade puddles, icy patches and so forth.
The controls in Motocross Madness 2 are very responsive using a gamepad. While turns can be pulled on a dime, an extremely important aspect, landing jumps is another story. While not a product of poor control, landing jumps takes a lot of proficiency and practice. You must land with tires correctly aligned and have the balance of your bike in complete control at all times -- certainly not something to be taken lightly.
Races are very difficult to compete in for beginners as crashes occur regularly. Anytime your bike goes airborne, you must watch out for anything may get in your way. Trees, rocks and other debris cause regular high-speed crashes. Unfortunately (or fortunately depending on your point of view), even on the easy level the opposition is very good. The computer-controlled racers are very proficient at their trade and will do everything in their power to win. That makes Motocross Madness 2 seem very real.
The graphics in Motocross Madness 2 are very, very good. If you have a high-quality video card, you can turn up the level of detail for your game for an even better experience. The backgrounds are beautiful. The sun creates unbelievable effects, the trees and bushes look lifelike and the bikes move with such speed, you'll feel like you're riding them. The camera view is nearly perfect as it moves back for wide shots and zooms in for stunts and jumps. There are no problems with swinging cameras or anything in the background getting in your way.
I had a bit of an aversion to the sounds of Motocross Madness 2. The sound effects are just average but the music is nearly non-existent. Aside from an Incubus song during the introduction (very nice touch), real music is not a part of the game. Instead, generic background music is played or nothing at all. Microsoft made a mistake here because heart pounding, adrenaline-pumping music could have enhanced the title a great deal.
Lost in Blue 3 is a survival game developed by Matrix Software and published by Konami for Nintendo DS in 2008. It is the sequel to Lost in Blue 2. It features four teenagers washed up on Little Xanadu Island.
As it stands, Motocross Madness 2 is a high quality racing game for the Motocross fan. People who like regular car racing games should also give this title a try -- they may just be surprised by the gameplay and sport of motocross racing!

OverviewSo you think you’re a pretty good dirt bike rider, do you? Think you can handle even the most extreme air?
Is there nothing you won’t use as a ramp to launch yourself? I answered all those questions with a 'NO' but still couldn’t resist taking a look at Microsoft’s follow up to. The only thing I recommend is that you bring along a steel cup, kneepads and a very good back brace because you will need it after a heavy game session.Motocross Madness 2 (MCM2) comes with five different race types: supercross, nationals, baja, stunt quarry, and the all-new enduro type of race. Another really cool feature is the Pro-Circuit racing where you get to start out as a no-name rider without experience, but as each race progresses you might get better. Watch out, though, because you only have a limited budget to pay for race fees, hospital bills, and bike repair. If you win races you just might get a sponsorship and make some money. If all that is not enough, then just head on over to the MSN Gaming Zone where you can race against other human opponents and get your butt kicked.
First off, this game really needs to be played with a joystick to get the full experience of MCM2, gamepads also work well, but I just can’t imagine having that same gaming experience using the keyboard. One of the first things I noticed when I started playing was how much tougher the tracks seemed to be.
Which is great because it will take you awhile to get the feel of each track; I know it made me stay up each night one or two hours longer than I should have. I think the single best thing about MCM2 is the addition of Enduro racing, which has you driving over some crazy terrain. You’ll get the chance to race on a ski slope, over and around a trailer park, and my favorite which is riding through the Amazon Jungle. There are way too many awesome tracks to list them all, but whether you enjoy supercross, baja, or stunt tracks, it’s all here. GraphicsI have one major beef with the game designers concerning the graphics. Why the heck did you have too put so many trees everywhere for me to run into??? I fell in love with the graphics from the moment I ran into my first rusty trailer.
The game seems much more wide open than the first Motocross Madness and I think that has a lot to do with putting trees, buildings, and vehicles into the game. Another thing that stands out is the better use of shadows this time around, it gave the game a much crisper feel to the racing environments. When you get to the indoor tracks you will notice another thing that is different this time around: the use of ruts in the track. It makes picking your racing line a whole lot tougher.
Okay, I’m going to quit babbling and just say this: 'The graphics are very nice.' AudioThe audio remains virtually the same as in the first Motocross Madness, with the exception of the new sounds found in Enduro racing.
Because of the type of racing involved in Enduro, you will encounter everyday objects like dump trucks, speeding trains, police cars, and even a very cool 'humming' power line section. Other than that it sounded like the same old motocross madness that we have come to love.
System RequirementsMinimum: Pentium II 233MHz, 32 MB RAM, Windows 98, 6X CD-ROM, 190 MB hard disk space, DirectSound API compatible 3-D sound card for 3-D audio, and a 28.8Kbps modem for internet play. If you are a first timer to Motocross Madness then you will fall in love with the game and be playing until the wee hours of the morning. If you’re a return customer you will be overcome with joy with all the new little tweaks to the graphics and tracks.
But you will bow down and thank the Moto gods when you see the new Enduro section that has you racing in some very interesting places and using some cool objects to get major air. All in all it is a strong second showing for the Motocross Madness family, so we will give it a score of 86/100.
Bioshock wiki. It would have scored higher but I was a little disappointed with uniforms for the riders and the bike tweak section seemed a little flat to me. So what are you waiting for? Grab some cash, get the game, and come home and get muddy.
