There’s something uniquely thriling about all the crazy futuristic touches in Trials Fusion, with sliding platforms and hoverships and weird purple alloys and force fields. I say that I couldn’t care less about all the customizable constume bits, but I still find myself playing dress up with my motorcyclist. I mean, I paid to unlock those costume bits, so I might as well use them.

Not a game that will go down in history of electronic entertainment, but it provides lots of fun, especially in multiplayer. [06/2014, p.62]

FMX, local multiplayer and quads miss the sweet spot, but everything else is very special. [July 2014, p.66]

Good game but not enough content (unless you want to pay for it). Difficult in the later stages of the game but that’s also what gives the game that addictive feeling.

Miserable game. Frustration over fun is the idea, which is why nobody plays these games I guess. Some say you can enjoy it once you’ve spent hundreds to thousands of hours mastering the physics. To that I say: there are better things to do with hundreds or thousands of hours of my life. Some devs forgot that games should be fun. Especially games with extreme sports. They brag about the physics and control in this game, but a few hours will have even decent players smashing their controllers. I love extreme sports games and racing as well. Got the platinum for Riders Republic because I enjoyed it so much. Beat every Tomy Hawk title up to Underground 2. I get the idea of failing and restarting and I have the patience for that if it feels fun and worthwhile in the long run. I’ve tried 2 Trials games now, Fusion and Rising. Both of those games do not care about fun or players time sink. They want you to perform a flawless run without even leaning to correct your angle so you don’t fall. Possible? Yeah sure…Fun? No. Miserable. And you will need to achieve some of these goals to simply unlock new maps. Oh and don’t get me started on the community maps mostly all being on tracks that would cost an additional $10 minimum to buy dlc content. I understand these games have a loyal following and I have nothing but respect for those who find this fun. I don’t know any of these people and all of my gaming friends have tried these games and all of these friends stopped and said they were too frustrating. I thought they were overreacting a bit, but no. If anything they were under reacting. Some call these games the dark souls of extreme sports games. I don’t think that’s true. Dark souls has value and a clear path to improvement. I was not able to find value in playing these and if I could speak to the devs I would have to ask if any of them play the games they make. I’m sure they do not as the challenges would be too difficult. If a challenge is too difficult for you and you have made the product, consider bringing it down a notch rather than sacrificing fun and ultimately causing your game to be incredibly niche. I’m not saying make it brain dead easy. I’m saying 99% of people who pick this up will not continue playing because the frustration is not fun. Maybe if you aim for fun, people will play your video games. Ask Tony Hawk. And to the “git gud” crowd out there: I am very good at many games and other irl things. The time it would take to get good enough to enjoy this game would first of all not be enjoyable at all for me and secondly that time would be wasted when it could have been invested in something like playing my guitar, cooking, or taking a walk with my dog. All better ways to spend you time and more rewarding. That’s not even naming the hundreds or thousands of better games you could play in that time.
TLDR: Game is not fun or worth your time sink and made me wonder how many devs even play their game and how many players just lie about achievements. Don’t bother. Play something fun.

The usual, wonderful Trials game, with tons of stuff to do, a great learning curve, a powerful editor and some great new elements.

If you have a tendency to rage quit and throw controllers, Trials Fusion may not be for you. Sometimes satisfaction is only found after hours of failed attempts, but the ease of giving it "just one more try" can be absolutely engrossing. The game’s outside-the-box goals are brimming with creativity, and the uncompromising level design pushes you to keep digging deeper to conquer every roadblock in your path.

Utterly addictive but It's too unpredictable to maintain the fun factor. The physics are too **** games asks you to roll a ball down a hill in a perfectly straight line except occasionally not too perfectly, else you'll mess it up. It punishes you for being good and for being bad. It challenges you to master chaos. Its worth playing for fun. Just dont try too hard to master it. It will come to you in time. With 60fps you can fail 60 times every second. Or kick-ass 60 times a second.. Torturously nuanced. Brazenly difficult. A game for gods PS: Learn to bunny hop

Trials Fusion is a worthy successor to Trials HD and Trials Evolution. It sticks to the same formula of those games and adds amazing new minigames and fantastic new skills to it. It doesn't quite live up to the full next-gen potential, but it is still a very fun game, where you can put lots of hours trying and failing.

Trials Fusion is a worthy addition to the series, even if it isn't the complete package we were hoping for.

Trials Fusion is not an evolution but rather a fusion of ideas and concepts that need to be improved.

Hardcore Trials fans have probably already bought and completed this game, but for others who may be curious and haven't jumped in yet, I'd recommend either of the others before this one.

Lo primero a tener en cuenta es que este juego necesita una cuanta psn en ps4, ya que sino es un juego de 10 horas, pero si la tienes es un juego INFINITO ya que los usuarios se dedican a crear pistas unas 30 al día y ya hay mas de 160.000 lo quei lo convierte en un juego perfecto para echar una partida rápida siempre en una pista distinta. mas de 100horas jugadas y me gusta como el primer día.

You can play a game like this on cool math games. Not fun at all. DON'T BUY THIS GAME!

There's not a whole lot to say as there's not a whole lot to the game. There is a "campaign mode" which has you travel to tracks which take a minute at a time to beat on average to earn a Gold medal. There is no story mode. The gameplay is press the gas while you lean forward or back on your bike. The game is a side scrolling racing game on rails. You can only move forward and can't position your bike along the "track". There are more movement options on Excitebike for NES than this game has. There's no on-line multiplayer, only couch which I did not try. The on-line tournaments feel like an extension of campaign as you stack your times up against other people.. but none that you play against live. The "announcers" repeat mostly the same lines on each course. If you're having a hard time with a course, prepare to hear the same speech numerous times. The graphics are really nice and your friends names showing up as you race is a cool feature so you know where you stack against those on your friends list. You can also customize your biker, which seems mostly worthless in a racing game where no one else will ever see you on a track with the lack of good multiplayer. In all, even the graphics and cool features can't help the repetitiveness of the audio and the gameplay.
SummaryTrials Fusion melds the classic, proven Trials formula of simple yet addictive competition with the social and visual breakthroughs of the next generation of gaming.
