BMX XXX

Description

Mature players take their BMX gaming to new highs and new lows in this release from AKA Acclaim. Choose a character or use the Create-A-Rider feature to design your own, then hop, spin, and grind down the street to ribald calls of encouragement from local hoodlums and passers-by. Pull off a couple of your best tricks to impress that lady on the corner (you know, the one who's wearing her underwear on the outside of her clothes). Don't worry too much about what that homeless guy just called you -- but don't let your momma hear you talk like that. Hey! Did that gal just ride by topless? The orphaned love child of Acclaim's Aggressive Inline and Dave Mirra BMX games, this exaggerated extreme sports title dropped its affiliation with Mirra and other pro riders in the middle of its development. Instead, the BMX XXX game world and its resident characters are presented as pure fantasy -- the kind of fantasy not always appropriate in polite company. In terms of gameplay, BMX XXX is similar to other extreme sports games from Acclaim and developer Z-AXIS, with trick-based scoring, big combo opportunities, and in-level objectives. Yet in BMX XXX, cut-scenes are more likely to reward gamers with video of professional strippers than of real-life tricks and bails. Some may find a straightforward sports game with a few titillating extras, while others may be so offended by the presentation that they never even get to the gameplay. However you take it though, BMX XXX represents a noteworthy attempt to bring a new, "adult" attitude to mainstream console gaming.
