MX vs ATV Reflex Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)MX vs. ATV reflex is big improvement over past MX vs. ATV titles. The graphics are excellent and the new reflex control system works really well. However, the online game play is ridiculous; you have to wait 30 to 45 minutes in a loading area for a match to start. After it does, no telling what will happen. Sometimes it works and you get to race but, most of the time it tosses you out after ½ a lap or so. Please do some research before buying this game for online multiplayer on Xbox Live.

Single Player-5 stars
Multiplayer-0 stars
Overall-3 stars BTW, next year dump all the trucks, buggies and utv's. That's what the Dirt 2 is for. Also, add some more Supercross and National tracks(only 8 of each this year).

Similar to earlier games in the MX vs. ATV series, gameplay in Reflexrevolves around multiplayer racing (12-player), across a wide variety ofoff-road race event types. These events encompass everything from motocross,supercross, omnicross and others and also feature a high level of trickcompletion, judged with several parameters in mind. Vehicles used in theraces run the gamut from specific MX bikes, and ATVS, to super buggies andtrucks. Gameplay in the dirt-covered environments faced require skill andguts to master. Along with the new Rhythm Racing 2.0 physics engine, MXvs. ATV: Reflex helps players achieve in these areas with a new controlscheme, Rider Reflex.

Rider Reflex
Build around dual stick controls, the Rider Reflex control scheme builtinto MX vs. ATV: Reflex is designed to revolutionize the way yourace in several different ways. The first of these is by improving precisionturning when you need it. With the left stick controlling the bike andthe the right the direction that the rider leans, tighter and faster turnsare possible by jerking the two stick in the same direction, carving theplayer to a stop or changing direction in a instant, just as you wouldon a real bike. Similarly this ability to use the rider's weight, alsoimpacts more subtle abilities to control a bike, both on the ground andin the air as the rider uses his weight to slow, or speed up his momentumat crucial times and change the angle of his bike to correct a bad takeoffBut Rider Reflex is not just about steering. It also has a major roleto play while while you are in the air, allowing players to pull off trickslike never before. There are several tricks and freestyle variations possible,all of which will take some time to discover and master, but the basictrick performance mechanism is simple. To pull off a trick just hold downthe left bumper and indicate direction on the right stick. Players canhold the stick in the final position to hold the trick longer. The tougherthe move, the more movement is required of the stick. Tricks can alsobe combined for extra style.

Wreck Avoidance System
No matter how sick attempted tricks might seem, they aren't worth much if you can't stick the landing. With this in mind MX vs. ATV: Reflex helps to get you back on the ground, safe and sound with a wreck avoidance system. In the event that players can't manage to use the Rider Reflex control system to right themselves as they come back to earth, this automatic system provides a last chance to avoid the disaster by alerting you to your danger with an onscreen arrow as the ground rises to meet you. Players must quickly flick the right stick in the direct of the arrow for the rider to regain his balance and keep on going. But expect to be challenged. If you are too slow you will wreck, and the harder the impact the less time you have to react.

Terrain
Featuring a new terrain engine, MX vs. ATV: Reflex provides unprecedented terrain deformation that create ever-changing courses as off-road vehicles carve lines and deep ruts that have a real-time impact on gameplay and remain persistent through the full length of each race.

Ride With Your Favorite Motocross Stars
More than just a game, MX Vs ATV: Reflex allows players to sharethe track and race against their favorite top athletes in professionalmotocross and supercross. Just a few of the top riders that players canexpect to cross paths with include, James Stewart, Ricky Carmichael, JeremyMcGrath, Josh Grant, Ryan Villopoto and many more.
