Although plenty of attention has been devoted to getting the gameplay and level designs spot on, the graphics haven't been overlooked - they really do look like they belong on the Xbox 360 or PS3. From the physics of the bike to the light from its headlamp, everything looks great. There are occasions when the front or back wheel gets stuck in part of the scenery, but this very rarely happens. There are several different camera angles available to view the action while you're playing, such as third person view and the first person headlight view, although you will mainly want to use these for watching the replays of your runs and stick to either the default action cam or the direct cam during the game. This really is one slick-looking game, and if Microsoft and RedLynx were willing to partner up, this would be one of the best games, if not the best game, on Xbox Live Arcade. The game even has achievements already, something you don't really see in many games for PC, and although I already own it, I would definitely spend my precious Microsoft points on it again - it's that good!
Although there is no multiplayer in Trials 2, you have the option to team up with a group of other players, but if you don't create your own, you will have to know the name of the team and the password in order to join. I myself am a member of the Flyers! There's also an online scoreboard, which automatically stores your times and places you among all the other players in the world. Another great addition to this is the option to watch other people's ghosts while you ride yourself, in order to observe their riding style and even steal a few of their tips and tricks and eventually beat them to the finish line, placing you above them on the scoreboard! Last but not least is the option to press tab and bring up the chat screen, so you can talk and ride at the same time, which is good for teams.
If you're a fan of the actual sport of motorcycle trials, or you're just up for a challenging, addictive and lovingly crafted arcade game then Trials 2 is for you. Redlynx have come up with one of the most compelling and fun games of the year, and if this does manage to make its way onto the Xbox Live Arcade, Microsoft will have yet another hit on their hands. Anyway, I must get going - I need to have another go at finishing Inferno!
