The ONLY complaint I have is the horrible wait times when picking vehicles because it has to load the 3d image of the vehicle. They fixed that in Pacific Rift. Otherwise, this games is awesome. In my opinion this is one of the best race games out there. I'm not a fan of very realistic simulations, but I don't care for races where the cars on on rails either. This is a nice balance of arcade fun with just enough realism and grit to make it extremely playable for hours.

I purchased this video game for my sons, and they can't get enough. They play separate, and they challenge each other on the different levels. I don't play, personally, but I enjoy that they enjoy it so much.

THE GOOD:
- Great graphics: the trucks look amazing, with reflective paint and detailed components. The courses also look great, with detailed textures and good lighting effects. The video cut scenes are incredible in HD.
- Vehicle choice: From motorcycles to monster trucks to rally cars, this game pretty much covers every off road vehicle out there.
- Vehicle damage: Vehicles crash in an explosion of parts. Very detailed damage after impact. The trucks get coated in dirt realistically.
- Simple menu structure: Very easy to navigate the menu, pick settings and races.
- Decent online mode, with a full list of courses and vehicles.
THE BAD:
- Single player game gets really difficult about half way through. If you make one mistake and crash... or somebody bumps you into a rock, you're screwed and probably won't win the race.
- No vehicle upgrades available... you don't really know if one truck in a class is better than the next, so you end up choosing based on styling and color. It'd be nice if you could see some generic ratings (acceleration, handling, top speed, suspension travel, etc.) and could increase these ratings with some add on parts after winning races.
- Online modes is lacking is stats. It tells you how many races you've won, and how many you've lost. Anything other than first, and you're a loser. This may sound like a small thing, but for me stats keep me intersted in the online portion of a game. Without good stats, I don't get hooked to keep playing and improve.
- Sound for some reason is extremely loud compared to other PS3 games. Hard to find a comfortable volume

This game is a fun racing game, graphics are stunning, and it even has online play so that you can test your skills against others around the world. Only downfall is that you have a limited number of vehicles to choose from in each race and it doesn't have just a freestyle track where you can practice race, and you kind of go off instinct on what terrain each vehicle you have best suits it. Crashing slow motion gets kind of annoying too when you can't just skip it and get on with the race. Otherwise great game for anyone who likes motor cross stuff. My little brother loves this game as it has to do with mud, racing, trucks, bikes, semi trucks, and baja vehicles.
