BMX XXX USA PS2DVD
lacks "Topless Mode"
The gameplay of BMX XXX is very similar to that of Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX 2. One button is used for tricks, and another is used to modify those tricks. There's actually a considerable amount of depth here, as the game has a ton of tricks when you count up all the modified versions and combinations. However, even with all this variety, none of the tricks feel particularly special or important, and you're left with what seems like a billion different ways to do a tabletop. Little quirks of the Dave Mirra engine pop up on occasion as well. You'll sometimes find yourself able to skid in circles forever, and you can still land just about any vert trick in a stall, which takes all the challenge out of landing tricks. Simply hit the grind button on your way down and you'll catch the rail and stall your way to safety, even if you're headed headfirst into the pavement. The bike will also magically reorient itself to make wallrides, walltaps, and fast plants almost automatic. Sometimes you'll even be able to walltap a ramp as you're coming down, which is another way to guarantee a safe landing. While the genre isn't exactly known for extreme realism, the Dave Mirra engine's unrealistic quirks ensure that BMX XXX's trick system is never challenging
