MX vs ATV - Xbox,PS2 preview

[Fixer]

I'm wondering how many guys dug out their PS2 or XBox version to get a reminder of the improvements in store... I never played this one all the way through like I did MX Unleashed- Truthfully I lost interest after a short while and although there are some good tracks I didn't think they were anywhere near as good as Unleashed- which seemed much more inspired and professionally done..Some people said they were too easy but they probably didn't have the fastest times, just making it around a track without crashing doesn't make it an easy track, getting the lowest possible time is where the difficulty is and with many chances to make or lose time I thought the Unleashed tracks were more rewarding...


MXvsATV annoyed me more than I enjoyed it mainly due to the tracks.....
Since you couldn't make your own I quickly lost interest, I'm a die hard computer player and among the things I hate are gamepads for MX games and the craptastic screen resolution of my TV. What I really dislike about the PS2 is in multiplayer they downgrade the visual quality even further to make it play smoothly (to the point that I felt it's unplayable). All in all, it's original  console release was a big let down for me. I really enjoyed riding the newer bike just not on my TV.....I'm looking forward to riding some killer "User Created" tracks.....ON MY PC 

I definitely hope they allow screen resolutions of at least 1600 x 1200  and.... ditch the  #$@&* Console menu and not use a separate "game launcher" for option adjustment- a totally redesigned  FOR PC game menu.

Apart from the low resolution graphics, lack of content and terrible soundtrack the single biggest issue that removed all interest in the console editions for me was not being able to use my joystick.

im sure the sound tracks sucks balls, but i think they will implement a new system where u can add ur Pwn shti, if not, run media player in the background.... and controllers do suck i must say for these types of games...

BUT, cant be to hard, its comin for pc, and its like "mcm3" and if it sucks, we already got mcm2

I played both games complete on the xbox.

As far as the soundtrack goes, I turn it completley off. I need all motor. Besides, the soundtrack isnt all that bad(as long as you dont listen to the rap crap)
I thought the tracks were alittle harder in mx vs. atv unleashed than in mxu. Played mva online a couple times. It was alright, xbox live is really horrible.
The graphics for me were just fine, I played it 1080i HD.

I like the physics better on mva than mxu, the rider looks more natural.

My opinion: If they did a direct port(no changes) to pc with a track editor, it will be a WAY better game the mcm2. I honestly stopped playing mcm2 after mva. I couldnt stand the physics of mcm2.

I am assumming they are going to make little changes here and there. It will be a fantastic game no matter what.

heh heh heh, Soundtrack was just a little dig, I cant handle racing games with music, no matter what series they are simulating.

Anyhow, The game will indeed rock even if it is just a tweaked port with a track editor, anyone know if it will have 5.1 audio?
