The only thing I recommend is that you bring along a steel cup, kneepads and a very good back brace because you will need it after a heavy game session. Motocross Madness 2 MCM2 comes with five different race types: supercross, nationals, baja, stunt quarry, and the all-new enduro type of race. Another really cool feature is the Pro-Circuit racing where you get to start out as a no-name rider without experience, but as each race progresses you might get better.
Watch out, though, because you only have a limited budget to pay for race fees, hospital bills, and bike repair. If you win races you just might get a sponsorship and make some money. If all that is not enough, then just head on over to the MSN Gaming Zone where you can race against other human opponents and get your butt kicked. One of the first things I noticed when I started playing was how much tougher the tracks seemed to be.
Which is great because it will take you awhile to get the feel of each track; I know it made me stay up each night one or two hours longer than I should have. I think the single best thing about MCM2 is the addition of Enduro racing, which has you driving over some crazy terrain. I have one major beef with the game designers concerning the graphics. Why the heck did you have too put so many trees everywhere for me to run into???
I fell in love with the graphics from the moment I ran into my first rusty trailer. The game seems much more wide open than the first Motocross Madness and I think that has a lot to do with putting trees, buildings, and vehicles into the game.
Another thing that stands out is the better use of shadows this time around, it gave the game a much crisper feel to the racing environments. When you get to the indoor tracks you will notice another thing that is different this time around: the use of ruts in the track. Xcrules 1 point.

Got it installed and updated the registry, game launches but when I enter a race my screen is a bunch of graphical artifacts.. Any ideas? IR 1 point. I downloaded the rip version.
How do I install it? I unzipped the file and now the game files are in my downloads. I tried to click the game icon, and it tells me "installation error". Abelhawk -1 point. Ardania 2 points. Akshit 0 point. I've been looking for it a very long time now!! Game on 1 point. Me too. It looked epic when it went BOOM! I can't believe it's been over 18 years. I look retrospectively and can see and almost touch my past innocent self playing this. Adding a premium peripheral to Motocross Madness ups the price tag overall, but it also ups the Fun Factor.
However you choose to play, though, Motocross Madness is a welcome leap tor racing enthusiasts. Motocross Madness , to be exact. Motocross Madness gives you the choice of four different types of competition.
The first three are all track-style races. Baja is a sort of cross-country race in which you ride from checkpoint to checkpoint as quickly as possible. National races take place in a trench-like environment.
Supercross is an arena-based track with lots of bumps and jumps. And last, but certainly not least, perform as many stunts as possible to earn points in the Stunt Quarry. This adds a level of realism that is pretty much only paralleled by physically riding a bike. When you get air and try to land, make sure you level your bike properly, otherwise the word "dismount" quickly comes to mind and body. In fact, they are so realistic that my friends and I find ourselves cringing and yelling "ouch" and other words whenever we eat it pretty bad.
I found that steering the bike during some of these races, particularly during the National, tends to be a bit sensitive and may take a few minutes to get the hang of.
The stunts, however, take a bit longer to get under control. There are sixteen different stunts that are all pretty neat to watch and perform. There is even a "stunt camera" that will show the stunt from a different angle when the stunt is executed. The interface is very straightforward. In fact, my copy had no written documentation and I figured it out.
Upon loading the game, I received an error message about my video card not having the latest drivers and that they needed to be updated. I updated with the files on the CD which turned out to be the same version I already had and still got the same message. I then clicked on the "Start" button on the CD splash screen and got an "Access Denied" message that scrolls for about five seconds before it loaded the game.
The animated splash screens from the game took up to three minutes to show compared to the same Microsoft splash screen that takes maybe fifteen seconds on Age of Empires , Outwars and Monster Truck Madness 2.
Fortunately, you can bypass this. Once the game finally loads, the largest problem of all comes into play: it tries to access my B: floppy drive for up to a minute before going to the next screen when I select something.
I found if I completely disabled my B: drive, the problem went away. During the actual gameplay, I had no problems at all except when I finished a Baja race, the game completely locked up.
I have been told that there should be a patch for these problems soon. Hmmm, how do I describe this in a word? Perhaps "realistic" will do. The terrains are quite vivid, which says a lot given that most of the playfields are pretty much wastelands. I found the shadows of the bikes caused by the low-lying sun to be really amazing. The bikes and the riders are clean, crisp and well done overall.
In a nutshell, 3Dfx strikes again. If you hate the sound of dirt bike engines roaring, I would suggest turning off your speakers. If you hate the sound of rock music, again, turn off the speakers. The rest of us will enjoy the sound of very realistic-sounding engines revving and tunes blaring. Occasionally an odd sound will be thrown in when selecting options in the menus.
Also, that little surprise I mentioned earlier involves the sound of a shooting cannon and a bomb dropping. Force Feedback joystick, game pad, or a compatible device is recommended. For this reason, I cannot effectively comment on written documentation. I found all the info I needed for doing stunts by looking on the web.
I had originally planned on giving this game a 94, but due to what I considered the serious problems I encountered and that this is release code on the CD, I had to drop the score quite a bit.
Please do not let this discourage you from considering purchasing it, though, as overall this is an absolutely wonderful game that will prove to be a lot of fun for everyone and especially for you dirt bike freaks when the cold, dark winter months roll around.
