MX vs ATV: Untamed Video Game Widget
So I hear from Jerry at M80, a company that's doing work for THQ, makers of the oh so sweet ATV Off Road Fury games.
"hey Kid, pimp our new game, we'll hook you up," he says.
--I say, "whatcha got, and what i gotta do?"
"nothin', just throw some pics up about our new game, MX vs ATV: Untamed."
--I say, "I can do that, watcha got?"
"a demo of MX vs ATV: Untamed for you my friend!"
--"A demo? Gimme the game, cuz! And gimme an Xbox too, cause all I got is two busted-out PSToos."
"I can't give out the whole game. C'mon, just a pic or video for a demo."
--"I really need an Xbox and the game, Jerry. Ok, how 'bout you hook my brother up with a job?"
"What are you talking about? What's that got to do with MX vs ATV?"
--I say, "my brother's T-bird sucks gas, he needs gas money to take me to Walmart to buy the game now, since you ain't givin' me one." Then I tell him, "my blog spiked out 15,000 visitors in the last week, you gotta have sumthin' for us hard working kid bloggers."
Jerry looks left, Jerry looks right, and says, "Kid, you're crazy."
--So I say, "Jerry, forget it, keep your demo. I don't want to do this anymore."
But here's the thing: I'm gonna do it anyway. Why? Because I loved THQ's ATV: Off Road Fury, and that company deserves props. It was a sweet game, and my bro' and I still race in it after over a year of owning it. And because as soon as I heard about MX vs ATV I was into it, and keep buggin my dad to get a better game system so I can play it. So, below is what Jerry wanted me to say, which I promised him I wouldn't, but which I will anyway just because.
MX vs ATV: Untamed kicks it up a notch and shifts into high gear as the best selling offroad franchise returns. Rainbow Studios has evolved their legendary Rhythm Racing™ engine to include throttle based power slides, near upside down whips and new scrubs.
Oh, and I did grab one of their cool widgets. They are pretty slick, with all the vehicles you can turn all around, watch the videos, check the screen shots, etc. If one of you get your hands on this game before I do, drop some comments about it, or tell me where you reviewed it and I'll post a link.

Burnout Revenge for PS2

Rating (1-5):
Reviewed by Nick
Official Site
Type: Driving game; PS2 version
Summary:The best racing game I've played.
What I liked: The good thing is, unlike all other racing games, when you crash, you actually CRASH. You don’t just bounce of the wall, you get broken to bits, and have the power to explode, sometimes killing other racers. You hit traffic into other racers for points, you can drive enemies into walls, trains, off mountains, heck you can land on enemies for an arial takedown. This game is so awesome. There's also a mode just to see how many cars you can crash and make the biggest pile-up. I definetly recommend this game for all ages.
Didn't like: This game is perfect, except, when you get really good you might go so fast you can't see anything. Blazing speeds when you use the boost trigger.
Additional: Pay attention to the stats when your picking your car. The top speed, weight and force are all very important and could win or lose a race for you. Ok, this part is critical: If you're doing a race where you have to hit traffic, racers, or cause a huge pile up, force and speed will help big-time. The higher the force, the bigger the explosion, while the faster the car, the more initial impact damage. Cars with higher speed and force will be unlocked as you progress in the game. The lighter the car, the faster it goes, but the more damage it takes and is harder to control.
You can explode after you have been taken down or wrecked, by pressing R2. But be patient and HOLD R1!!! This will put the crash in slow-mo and you will be able to see more clearly if an enemy is coming up. Also, if an enemy racer has taken you down ealier in the race, watch out for a red icon above the car. If you take him out you will have a revenge takedown and will receive extra points. Take down your enemies in creative ways for style points, and get a record in takedown style to receive animated trophies at the end of the race. Enjoy the game and look forward to the awesome cars and tracks. =)
Recommend for: All ages, but some adults might find this game to be to violent for kids under 7.
