Weird.

I'm shocked that the other reviews are not absolutely plagued with complaints about the BMX biker not able to pedal the bike. If you land on an upwards slope with low speed, you can hold "A" to speed up but all the biker does is crouch low and not pedal. So the game says you're going to slow and boom - game over.

Anyways I guess that maybe that's just how the game is suppoed to be played. You need to keep your speed up and the biker is not allowed to pedal. I'm trying to get into that mentality, but I just can't. THE PEDALS ARE RIGHT THERE DAMNIT!! PUT YOUR FEET DOWN AND GO SCRUB!!!

Anyways I can't possibly recommend this game for that alone. It makes the game ultra frustrating. However the game seems very fun in the levels where this isn't a concern. Really brings me back to the Tony Hawk 2 glory days. I think I'll go back and try to play some more downward sloping levels only :/

In closing my birthday wish is to hold A and have my biker move those little speed inducing pegs under his feet. That would be so delightful.
