- Mx Vs ATV Untamed (PlayStation 3)

Mx Vs ATV Untamed
Rainbow Studio's Mx Vs ATV series has never been about simulation-style racing. If that is what you are looking for here, you are out of luck and will be disapointed. The graphics are not the best buy the gameplay is solid. Controls work well and the fun-level is through the roof. If I had to pick some things to complain about in the gameplay it is the fact that Rainbow added "realism" to the game when it comes to the motorcycles. No longer can you make the huge jump and then stick the landing. 99% of the time you will crash and burn. Yet I can still land jumps with my bars turned and only holding on with one hand. Doesn't make sense, this series has always been about arcade-style racing. Also, the track boundries are questionable at best. In one part of a track if you leave the boundry you reset, yet in other portions you can glitch through no problem. It should be uniform.

Either way, this game is fun to play either alone or with friends. If you want a realistic racer I suggest you wait for Gran Turismo 5 Prologue or buy Dirt. MotorStorm is another decent option to pick up. If you are still unsure download the Mx Vs ATV demo via PlayStation Network Store or rent Mx Vs ATV first.
