Unfortunately, the controls have some major issues, which is one of the major downfalls of the game. To say the least, they aren't very responsive or accurate.

Looks infinitely better than its ancestors, but plays pretty much the same.

It’s not a masterpiece, but Z-Axis’ BMX combo-fest is a blast and a half.
5
I love the level design and the graphics but the game feels very clunky and ruins the experience for me at least.

Everything we could have hoped for – great new levels (with just a touch of the old levels left in), vastly improved graphics, and another great soundtrack.

By far the most fun game I have played on the PS2.

What impresses is the structural coherency of the game world: anything you see and think ‘I ought to be able to stick a bike on that’ will indeed be solid and available for tricks duty, from moving cars to power cables, scaffolding and tree branches.

The game feels solid and responsive, the controls are relatively tight and the bikes are fast, unlike in the previous games.

Isn’t quite as fresh as the original was a year ago, but Z-Axis has really stepped up for the PS2 sequel in all areas, and we eagerly anticipate what they’ll have ready for the third installment.

Simply not sufficiently distinguishable from its clan to make it an essential purchase.

SummaryRearing its head for the first time on the PS2, the latest incarnation of DMFB features eight levels ("4x bigger than before") in vert, dirt, street, and park riding, with ten multiplayer games and a roster of pros including the usual suspects: Ryan, Rick, and Dave himself.
