  1. Left Field Productions (previously responsible for "Excitebike 64") have delivered an incredible sense of speed and provided some much needed variation with its' game modes. However for those after those looking for online play will be best served by the Xbox version that does not restrict you to continually empty Australian servers.
  2. MTX Mototrax may be the only game in town if you're dead-set on online play, but THQ's recent release, "MX Unleashed," is still a better game across the board.

    Fast, furious, but difficult to master, this game will have players cleaning dirt out of their PS2s. [May 2004, p.40]

    MTX may be fun to drive, but it's a little short on car-wreck appeal, which probably has to be considered an important factor in an extreme sports game.
  5. The gameplay holds together fine, the graphics look great enough to keep the game moving, and you got to love being able to go online and rub a wheelie in an opponent's face.
  6. The only two things that keep MTX: Mototrax from truly soaring is the lack of racing precision seen in other motocross titles and the strange physics anomalies.
  7. Regardless of the decent handling, there's no escaping one of MTX's most annoying flaws: heaps of the objectives are startlingly samey.

    The game initially strikes a good balance between challenging and rewarding but becomes extremely difficult in later stages (despite bike upgrades), ramping up the frustration factor considerably - and unnecessarily. [May 2004, p.88]

    Playing MTX a month after playing "MX Unleashed" is sort of like driving a Taurus after a month of driving a Viper. [May 2004, p.100]

    A Sick game with sick maps and a map creator, with a sick soundtrack!

    A Sick game with sick maps and a map creator, with a sick soundtrack!
    This game was ahead of it's time.
    Besides the awesome dirt bike races, you could also do lots of tricks and combos, and a pretty good amount of customization to your bike and rider.
    This game was like Skate 3 but with dirt bikes.
    You could even do some back flips around the Travis Pastrana's house while listening to some Slipknot or The Distillers.

    Best Dirt Bike game of all time for me.
