If you ever wanted to feel terrible at games start this game. If you wanted to feel good at games. Play this game for a month

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.

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 typical Trials game. Fun for a while but the fun doesn't last very long once you get to the really frustrating parts.

I played this game maybe for 6-7 hours or **** first, I found the game really fun and even addictive. It is easy to start and beat the first levels. However, when you reach the difficult tracks, the game becomes more frustrating. The difficulty spike is huge between the medium tracks and the hard ones. I think this game is average and that's why I give a 6/10 rating. It is a good arcade game but it lacks a bit of content, especially if you don't buy the DLC. I feel there are alsp too much microtransaction. I recommend this game if it is on sale.

If you’ve ever played any of the last gen Trials games there is nothing here that you’ll not have seen before, other than some improved graphics of course. As with previous titles the main career mode of Trials Fusion tasks you with completing a series of motorbike “obstacle courses”, they start off fairly simple and with the online leader boards there is an incentive to replay tracks to try to finish just that little bit quicker. The difficulty ratchets up pretty quickly however (although not as steeply as earlier games in the series) to the point where proceedings will become more frustrating than fun for all but the most dedicated of players. The online multiplayer offers the opportunity to compete more directly with other racers, including private matches against friends and offers a nice alternative to the single player. A few of my friends have had issues getting online due to Ubisoft’s insistence on having to sign into their Uplay platform however which has been frustrating when we just wanted a quick game.

This game is initially fun but when you get to the harder levels this game becomes very frustrating due to either my controller lagging or the laggy controls....

I gave it two points for graphics... they're fine really. Good, even. But whether a game is good or not, is not pinned on graphics. It has to be fun to play. At first I was delighted at what appeared to be a modern take on ExciteBike. The luster wears off extremely fast, as some of the worst interpretations of physic and wonky controls soils whatever charity nostalgia might provide. There's no 'left' or 'right', you're just a driver on a vehicle, going in some rail-like path, and it's up to you to either accelerate, brake, lean forward or back to get through things. The rider never returns to a natural position by instincts that any of us that have ever learned a bicycle will do, so you may find yourself flipping backward or flopping forward because of that failure to adjust for the driver that a proper equilibrium system does for us. If this sounds exciting to you, then just give the game five more points I didn't. No matter what though, the actual physics are derpy, and too frustratingly divergent from reality for me to give it a pass. The final nail in the coffin for me, was with the flakiness of the Ubisoft score tracking service. I spent quite a while on a couple tracks trying to get a decent score to beat some of my friends' times, only for the system to throw me errors that it lost connection to Ubisoft, and it will not successfully reconnect until you leave the final score window. Once you're out of that window, you have to redo the race and hope it stays connected to get ranked with your friends. I can't even recommend anyone with PSPlus to touch this, this month while it's offered for free.

Graphics are alright, music is repetitive and annoying - bikes sound like lawnmowers and your rider is constantly screaming for some reason. Gameplay is simple: hold gas and hope that this time the physics won't screw you over. Seemingly same jumps can result in crashing or perfect landing. Reminds me of Angry Birds - just keep presssing restart till you win. I had more fun playing Across or Elastomania about 18 years ago.

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.

First time Trials player. I found this game addictive for a while, then it just became frustrating. I enjoy playing user created tracks if they're well made. I have major complaints regarding the editor. I gave this game a score of 5 due to the broken editor. Several times I loaded tracks that I had been working on only to discover that the editor did not save all of my work. This wastes the time of those creating tracks for the community. Today, I lost an entire track due to this broken editor. Upon saving my work a final time, the game crashed. Now, when I try to load the track, the game immediately crashes. All of those hours were lost due to a broken piece of software. I highly recommend that users don't spend too much time trying to make elaborate tracks with the editor on PS4. You just may lose all that hard work and time to a broken editor. It's a shame, too, because I enjoyed making tracks for the community. Redlynx needs to fix the editor. Until then, I'm finished with it. I'm not wasting more time.

I don't believe in ghosts, but i saw a ghost when I played this game. The ghost of old man jenkins telling me i was not #1. Frick. Why did Squidward's dreams have to die, I believed in him so much. Life goes on I suppose. SQUAAAAAA

Standard driving beating a time or previous score game. Really hard if you plan on beating all of the levels, takes plenty of luck and a good hand of skill.

The game is fun and entertaining, but is a bit of a disappointment after Evolution and an overall step back. ***UPDATED*** Everything I originally stated is pretty much the same. If you haven't gotten to play trials I'd still say get it, but with every update lately the game has taken on a look of a mobile game with endless pop-ups and ads on main screens for DLC, have made the game take on the appearance of a desperate mobile game. I've lowered my score from 7 to 6. This is obnoxious, and I'm sure is an outcome of Redlynx being purchased by Ubisoft. (This BS compelled me to update this review) The gameplay and controls are excellent and on par with the previous titles, and FMX was a great addition. Red Lynx dropped the ball when it comes to customization. The body kits are OK, but I want to be able to change the color on every part of my bike! I hate all the white/silver strips and accents I cant change! I don't understand why devs would exclude simple features such as this from a new title like this! The leveling up was just a meh addition, and goes hand in hand with the track challenges. I'm a pretty good Trials player, I have zero faulted all the Inferno tracks, but some of these challenges were ridiculous! There shouldn't be challenges requiring you to zero fault and extreme track,. I could see this being a huge turn off to some, and is frustrating for someone wanting to get all the trophies/achievements. The future theme wore thin on me rather quickly. The AI voices grated on my nerves quickly, and trying to incorporate that story was just silly. The track editor was a disappointment to me coming from Fusion's editor. I was sad to see that there were no classic wood ramps or scaffolding etc. The game is fun, and worth buying, but I'm glad I did not buy the season pass though. If your coming from Fusion you may be disappointed as I was, but if this is your first chance to own a Trials game, get it!

Игра прикольная, НО! Играть в такие игры на консолях нового поколения? Это как-то странно. В такие игры нужно играть скорее на планшете или телефоне. Но если вы сыграли во все крутые ААА игры и у вас есть лишние 10-20$, то почему бы и нет..

Its a usual game....with a lot stuff to do (events, online events, multi, etc). The main game is cheap (main game) but Ubisoft sells the complete game through DLC system, and it transforms in a expensive game. Buy this game if you want a **** more.

This is the first trials game I have bought and I absolutely love it. You really get a chance to notice your improvement on this game, more so than many other games. The game goes from easy to hard to the ridiculous, but there is plenty of tracks for all skill levels, especially with the excellent track creator and unlimited creativity of the community. Great fun with friends and solo, I have developed a real soft spot for this game and would definitely recommend it.

I've played the previous games in the series and this is so far my favorite of them all. This game is frustrating, fun and addictive at the same time. The game can be frustrating at first since especially the hard and extreme tracks are really tough for someone who can't play the game. Later on if you keep playing it's nice to notice that you can actually get gold medals on hard tracks that you could barely even complete earlier. If you are, however tired of the series then this game won't really offer you much of anything new. The FMX tracks are a new addition to the series but they aren't that numerous and not my favorite type of track in any case.

Great game, beautiful graphics, not many framerate issues, nice music, LOTS of replay value, all the medals, challenges etc. I don't know how the online works as PSN is down as I am writing this, but the game is very easy to control, pretty difficult and will offer a challenge to gaming masters. 9.1/10

My first game in the series and I have to say... It's pretty good, the maps are challenging, and at a $15-$20 ( can't remember the price) it's a really good value. The local coop is fun, I really recommend this game to trials fans

This was a game I was looking forward to when I got it yesterday. I like the game, but I do have a few complaints. 1. It is way to short. I already have almost everything beat, and I haven't even played for 3 hours! Not even the DLC makes it longer. 2. Some of the tracks are nearly IMPOSSIBLE. I look at the Original Trials HD. The Stages look hard on hard, but in Trials Fusion, the Hard stages are nearly impossible. I swear, half of the hard stages if you mess up, you have to restart the ENTIRE TRACK. 3. It is DLC is too expensive! $20 for a season pass? Seriously? It makes the game maybe an hour longer at the most. If you own a PS4, it is worth getting. I got mine for only $30 since a store had a deal. Though, if you think the other Trials games are way too difficult, then I can't recommend it. I bet it is just me who is terrible at this game, but I bet everyone else is looking at this review and laughing.

Terrible sequel to one of the best pick up and play games of all time. The heart and soul has been taken out of the game. The content has been stripped back, the game-play mechanics dumbed down and so many features have been broken since launch it's not funny. It's a real shame to see such a great franchise be flushed down the toilet due to greed. Save your money for games made by developers who respect their fans and put their heart and souls into their game.

I love this game, its so easy to pick up and just play when your bored and no other game will cut it. Great scenery, level design, and physics. I think at £15 is a good price but should include all the extra packs for that amount, and they should have real branded motocross bikes with an actual upgrade system (exhaust, suspension, piston etc) this would add an element of quality and realism that it does not have at the moment it is defiantly arcade style atm.

Firstly I think the controls are fine and work well. I've played a few hours of trials evolution before but nothing major, I think the everything except the customisation is an improvement, though the customisation is still better than most games. The integration of uplay is good and so are the rewards. The bikes are detailed and the map are less prone to glitches, with nearly 22000 maps on the game you can't get bored, and if you do you can always make your own maps! The only thing that lets it down is the price of the DLC, however £15 for the game is a bargain so you can't complain!

This entire instalment of Trials for PS4 is a joke, Riders Of Rustland is no different. The season pass IS NOT worth the money, and Ubisoft basically stole the extra $20 from people by advertising the game for $40 for months on PSN, then dropping the price weeks later after the game came out. This whole game ****, taking on some sort of futuristic techno-laced robotic theme instead of the traditional heavy metal & hard-edged dirtbiking theme - cool man! It's a lazy cash grab and it shows. The tricks you can now perform are little more than a burden. The DLC ****! There's no online multiplayer. There's no decent bike/character customization. The tracks are boring and thoughtless, and I usually can't even waste my time to make it through a single couse. I loved Trials Evolution, but this is trash. The whole game is a letdown.

I paid for the deluxe edition on PSN and wish I hadn't. It's good, but it's not worth the money to get the expansions as it's much of the same as before. In it's defence though it does look nice and is smooth. But not much of a step forwards from the first games.

Many others have stated that this feels like a track pack for previous games and it does. The game feels less of a full package than its predecessors, especially with no dedicated skill games. The lack of supercross tracks (there are a handful in the game, but no ability to create more in the track editor) makes it less welcoming to those with high expectations based on previous games in the series. Its known that the developers used the in-game track editor to create all of their tracks for the game, and it feels like they've relied too much on user content being generated by its community to flesh out a bare bones package. Aside from the lack of content, the gameplay is as solid as ever. The bikes respond well and the in game tracks are created very well. FMX is a new addition allowing the user to do tricks for points, however the 'ragdoll' physics of the rider flailing into a new trick position feels lazy and sometimes it is difficult to pull of a trick that you want. however it is still worth giving a try as it is quite fun. To add more replay value to the game, the developers have added challenges to complete on every track, ranging from simplicity of completing a few backflips to the insane of the screen flipping upside down. These added challenges provide incentive to replay levels, not only to best your friends score but to add a little challenge to the completion of each track. Overall the game is worth buying, but if you've been a fan of the series for some time, there may be some disappointments.

A fantastic game with barely any issues. The game has a fantastic campaign with hard levels that are rewarding when you finish the level and get a gold medal. The controls are flawless and the graphics very good. The gameplay is fantastic and is very addicting and just fun to play. The Level creator is fantastic and makes the games replay value higher with all the fantastic user generated content in Trials Fusion. The multiplayer is just average and is not that fun to play. I was just thinking that they shouldn't have even included the local multiplayer. Overall fantastic 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.

Before I had got Trials Fusion, I had never really played games like this before. But I gave it a chance anyways. And I absolutely LOVE IT. The good thing about games like this is that they never get old, I'll never want to sell this game, it'll always be fun. And it offers practically limitless content. You get about 70 tracks in the game on release date, which vary in difficulty. And you have tons of tracks to download from people who have created them. Not to mention the 6 DLC packs which will come out at a future date. The game is really quite challenging. When I got to the "Skill Showcase" I actually quit the game for a little bit because I didn't think I could do well. But practice makes perfect and now I've completed the whole game and got silver medals on all the tracks. The graphics for this game are also really impressive for a 2D dirt bike physics game. I don't see how you can give a game this fun and timeless anything but a 10/10. This is a game you can pick up and play and have fun with 3-4 years down the road.

More of what you'd expect if you're at all familiar with the other Trials games. Just as fun and challenging as always, with new terrains and levels/games to explore and some weird new "trick" system thrown in for good measure. A little disappointing with the price point though, as it's the most expensive of the series to date and is pretty much the same if not slightly worse than Trials: Evolution,

Trials Fusion, the game is set in the future where everything seems to crash and explode every 2.4 seconds. If you don't already know you ride a motorcycle (and the occasional quad bike) through increasingly hard courses until you turn your console off in anger. The game is just over 4 - 5 hours long depending on how many times you crash. You can now do stunts by moving the right joystick in multiple directions but its very flimsy and your rider seem to spin around like a mental **** can create your own courses but i didn't really feel the need to do it. Its not too expensive to buy so you can give it a go if you want.

While the game is very polished on the visual side of things, it's mechanics feel glitchy. It's not something you feel during the easier first levels, but it becomes a complete annoyance later on - the bike/or quad behaves unintuively in some scenarios, and more towards the harder part of the game become a source of annoyance. I have completed every level with a gold medal, and I don't mind repeating levels in games but some here just felt awkwardly constructed instead of difficult. And the air tricks part of the game is ridiculously bugged with the rider getting tangled between the wheels and what not. Tony Hawk's had better technology 12 years ago. Overall - a pleasant game that I would recommend if you like challenges, but it would benefit from additional development and testing.

Stylish, thrilling, often hilarious gameplay which I'm thoroughly enjoying for the time being. It's a bit of a physics puzzler **** that requires developing intuitive instinct on the fly via trial and error. That same kind of physical intelligence that all X-Sport enthusiasts must harbor in order to not kill themselves while competing....something of which I have precious little of. Well.....maybe a little bit in my thumbs :)

I play this game A LOT as I have with other Trials games, so I will try to be as in-depth as possible. Pros: If you are a true fan of trials, it IS another trials game and you wont be disappointed. Plenty of tutorials just like before in Trials Evolution, so that really helps if you're new. Not to mention you can also watch replays of other riders on the leaderboards, which helps new and experienced players. It looks very.. pretty. It is definitely an upgrade from Evolution. And to those that say these are 'last gen graphics'.. Let's not forget that this is still a relatively small developer and the game is 20 dollars. The addition of FMX and the quad bike. While some people may not like it, I personally appreciate the effort in adding to the game so you aren't just grinding tracks all day with the same two bikes. The quad bike makes you learn a completely new bike that we haven't experienced before, and FMX adds something completely new to the game that is fun once you learn it well and it is a nice break from doing regular tracks. Even though the controls for tricks are pretty wonky. Another thing about FMX, if you are concerned that your skill on FMX tracks will effect your ranking on the global leaderboards, don't worry it wont. Just like skill games don't count, neither do FMX tracks. The quad bike tracks count though. Challenges. What an awesome idea, seriously. I am well aware that not everybody is like me where as they want to go back and platinum every track, or even try to better their time further after receiving a platinum medal. But this gives everyone a whole new reason to go back and replay each track. Each track has three challenges that you can choose to complete. Some are easy, while some are rather difficult. The level system. You get XP from completing official tracks with the highest medal possible, completing challenges, and what is also interesting is you can get XP from completing user created tracks, and that adds to your overall level. The level serves no other purpose than unlocking outfits for your rider, different wheels for your bike, and things like that. But it is definitely cool that you get rewarded for playing user created tracks. The track editor. I personally can't really speak for it, so take this with a grain of salt. But I have heard that they added a lot more items and apparently you can do more with the editor now. This is what I have heard, I personally don't use the editor. So like I said. Grain of salt. Cons: Less customization for bikes. This to me, really ****. I loved being able to customize every color for each part of my bike in Evolution, and now the wheels and body of the bike are the only things you can change. Why they decided to do this, I have no idea. But it is a little disappointing. Sound. Gahhhh Redlynx WHY? The announcers are AWFUL. We fully understand that your sense of humor ****, and we understand that because of the infamous Trials Evolution opening rap song. I'm just glad you can turn the announcers off, so thank you for that. The music isn't that great, but I think it's an improvement over Evolution. The 'thumbs up thumbs down' rating system for user tracks. This ****. It really does. If I remember correctly, in Evolution you could rate user tracks 0 through 5, which makes a lot more sense. Sometimes I like a track a little, but certain things I don't like. I don't want to give them a fully positive or fully negative rating for that track, I should be able to rate it in the middle. All this causes is really crappy tracks to get rated 80+% positive, so you are led to believe it is fairly decent, when it really isn't. Uplay. Ugh. I saw this coming when I saw that they had Ubisoft as their publisher back when Trials Evolution: Gold Edition came out on the PC. While it isn't that big of a deal, it would be REALLY NICE if it would actually work. I know not everybody has this problem, but some of us do. I STILL cannot link my Uplay account, which causes me to miss little features of the game. Nothing huge, but it's still there. Fix it, damnit. Other thoughts: I have this section here to just talk about multiplayer. I am very disappointed that online multiplayer isn't available at this time, because that was one of my favorite features of Evolution. The reason this isn't a con, is because Redlynx says that they will add it later. Which I really hope comes sooner than later. But in my opinion, I'm glad they released the game now, rather than waiting for multiplayer to be finished. It gives everybody plenty of time to familiarize themselves with all of the tracks before diving right into multiplayer. Hopefully it will be even better than Evolution, and hopefully they wont have that crazy leaderboards glitch with multiplayer like they did before. If you have never played a trials game, check out the demo. If you like the gameplay, then go for it. It's worth it. I'm almost out of characters, hah. I hope this review was helpful.

It's late at night, my head is pounding, and I'm trying to figure out just what ruined this game so badly. To spare you a mindless rant, I've decided to separate my opinions into normal categories. Graphics: 7/10. A very pretty game, with lots of action going on in the background and crisp visuals up front. The explosions and other effects looked very decent. However, the horrid graphical glitching (pixelatwrion and major texture pop-in) really pull you out of the game. Not only that, but they'll ruin your run of a level if they appear in the wrong spot. "Story": 1/10. If I didn't know better, I would think that there wasn't a story to this game. Turns out, the so-called "announcers" are trying to tell you something. What that is, I'll never know. For the most part, there mindless droning on about everything under the sun will make you want to shut them up more than actually listen to them. Gameplay: 4/10. Don't get me wrong, I love Trials. I've sunk at least 400 hours into Trials Evolution, and gotten almost all the gold medals. This game is no Trials. The learning curve spikes with about 16 levels left, and it is harsh. But not harsh because the levels were cleverly made (they were all pretty **** really), but because the controls have been absolutely **** upon. ALL of the bikes feel sluggish and unresponsive, not ever even coming close to the twitch-control gameplay of **** whole trick mechanic is completely broken, like trying to give someone a surgery with a rotten mango. The tricks just did not work at all. Overall, the horrific gameplay really did make me want to cry. Audio: 6/10. The openong theme is... meh. This is better than Evolution's start up theme though. The rest of the audio however, consists of maybe 2 songs. They loop ENDLESSLY, and I had to turn them off entirely within an hour. The bikes did sound pretty nice though, with a better rumble to them this time around. Overall: 4.5/10 This game was the worst possible scenario. Unbelievably short, and repugnantly awful until the end. Don't give in to your temptations; avoid this game like the plague.

The game just comes off as annoying. From the music to the dialogue shoe-horned in, it all seems to add to this ongoing idea that Ubisoft rushed this game. Its mechanics are decent yet feel sloppier than Evolution. Where the game insults is the lack of track innovation. Evolution felt so fresh and bursting at the seams with ideas that this one just feels gimmicky, having you say "Jeez another future level?" or "Wow there are so many explosions going on in the background." I expect better from this franchise.

Trials Fusion is an extremely irritating game if you don't like to try again millions of times. But if you do, this is certainly the game for you. You get to ride around in a 2D level, in a motorcycle.

(Note: PC Closed Beta Review) Fun to play, difficult to master. So this is the first Trials game I've played. The graphics are decent for an "arcade" title, but the gameplay is what really makes me love it. I noticed a review saying there isn't multiplayer, but there is local multiplayer. Also, the game is designed for one rider on one track trying to get the best time, trophies, etc... So this game is a competitive leaderboard game, try to be the fastest racer or score the most points on the track, etc... I don't know how I missed the previous titles, this is the game I've always wanted to play. Basically it makes you master the physics of a MX bike (or one ATV so far) on tracks that are bursting with imagination. Some of the challenges are extremely difficult, like keeping your front wheel off of a certain part of the track, requiring perfect balance and timing on your part. When you master all of the tracks you have, you can go and make your own. Lastly, the developers have already announced 6 DLC packs, and have been constantly patching and tweaking this game. This is a cult title, you will either play through the courses once (or maybe enough times to get a gold medal) and afterwards wonder why you paid $20 for it, or you spend time to try to be the best and master the bikes and tracks to top the leaderboards, and feel your money was well spent. Also, I guess you could just have fun with it!

In most games, even if you don't like the game at first, if you give it a chance, something about the game generally grows on you and you end up overall more positive about the game. Trials Fusion is not that game. This is a pretty short game, and increasingly short depending on your skill and patience with the games generally overly sensitive (i.e. poor) controls and poor level designs (especially later into the Skill/Expert levels). The reason for this is the game developers don't know what is fun about their game, and for some reason feel that 10 second checkpoints of extremely hard (essentially luck based due to fussy physics/controls) and un-fun bunny hopping levels is what the later levels **** like this should be. I would have hoped as you went further along, the more spread apart the checkpoints would get with longer stretches of needing to maintain good momentum to make the jumps and land correctly, but instead the checkpoints get ever narrower leaving the player to get lucky or die trying for each successive bunny hop section for whole length of tracks. The local multiplayer mode (no online) is also pretty worthless. It is again just small checkpoint sections pieced together as players rubber band each other forward until the end of the level and then whomever had the least "faults" is the winner (regardless of who crossed the finish line). The track editor and level sharing might be one saving grace for the game, but as of now, most of the created levels I tried were buggy, but it did have a few stand out tracks that were better than the included tracks in the game. I should also mention that the game crashed most of the times I used the share feature to post a screenshot to Twitter. The PS4 would allow me to Close Application and submit a bug report whenever that happened so only the game was crashing and not the system. Chances are if you get this game, the more you play and progress, the more you will end up hating it, and I doubt anybody would truly consider playing this game as "fun". If you are still interested in the game, then at least save yourself some money by getting just the $20 version instead of the $40 version. They are the same game currently, but the $40 version includes season pass which will bring some added content/features down the road.

Good game! Trials Fusion doesn't have an engine improvment, but still a very nice game, with great maps, great challanges and great fun, the most spectacular thing is what's happening in the map, each map has one event happening, witch makes the roads much more epic. I just think that Ubisoft should make a online multiplayer mode, it would match with the game, but we need to think about the price, I think that those $19,9 is value for money, highly recommended.
