    El mejor juego de motocicletas de PS2. GP se vuelve aburrido al compararlo con esta maravilla.

    This game rules. Most people dont like it cuz its not as easy as ssx. This one is for the best video gamers who want to be tested to thier full. This game is so great if you get good enough. I love the tricks and way of unlocking characters. Tied for best ea game with NBA street vol. 2. I want a freekstyle 2.

    Really fun game until the tracks begin to repeat themselves over and over, after the third time I was extremely bored. Worth buying if you like free-style. Cool moves!

    I loved SSX, but this just stinks. Poor graphics, annoying physics and little sense of speed.

    No matter how many times I try to enjoy this game, I fail. I am a big EA fan, but I still can't stand Freekstyle.

    Not really a fun game, the only thing that I found fun was crashing the bike into obstacles. The tricks were really hard to do and not really that impressive.

    Don't expect to be playing the reincarnation of SSX Tricky here folks, this one is hard. Extremely hard. To the point of insanity hard. For example, level one alone is quite a challenge to make it through. The AI is downright ruthless and it took me nearly five hours to make it past this track, and that's saying something as I'm usually the type who can fly through any game out there.

The AI is downright ruthless and it took me nearly five hours to make it past this track, and that's saying something as I'm usually the type who can fly through any game out there. The track design, and speed is amazing. The motion blur is very very cool, and the jumps pack quite a punch but most of them are near impossible to land with the precision needed to do so. Crash once, and you may as well forget it and start all over unless you are the master of hidden areas then maybe you have a shot if the opponent doesn't boost it past you at the last second of the Main Event. And yes, you must place 1st on the third race of each track to make it to the next level. ARRRGH! SSX Tricky was so easy, but come on now EA, did you really think that boosting the difficulty to insane level would make this that much better?! And no, you cannot change the difficulty here. FRUSTRATING. I just hope to master this one at some point before I throw the game out the window. Expand

    A very fun extreme racing game that is basically the motorcycle version of SSX.

    eu amei este jogo! me divertir bastante, mas também sofrir muito nas fases de circuito. Minha critica é que a EA pecou em o jogador ter que jogar muito para concluir uma só fase, e falta de mais pistas diferentes e desafiadoras. me divertir muito e concerteza merece o título de greatest hits

    Funny Characters, cool bikes to ride, gnarly tricks to perform, long race tracks with massive jumps, & somewhat open-world freestyle tracks. This game will forever be a masterpiece to me & my older brother when we grew up.

    Ever since I started playing my PS2 again, I would think of the best situations possible for my brother to play Freekstyle again after those childhood days. I just want to give my brother nostalgia for something but he doesn't have nostalgia for anything.

    I love this game so much but I'm terrible at it.

    Freekstyle is a fun game that gets repetitive real quick due to its small selection of courses.

    Eu amava muito esse jogo,mais ainda quando vinha meu primo ou meu irmão jogar comigo no meu PS2, infelizmente o PS2 parou de funcionar.

    There hasn't been a more thrilling motocross game since Nintendo's "Excitebike 64." [August 2002, p.124]

    Its rubber-band AI is staggering in its cruelty.
  3. A fun, difficult racer deeply entrenched in the SSX vein. It does what it does well, though it's not much of a departure.
