Song - • GHOSTEMANE - Mercury Today I revisit MX UNLEASHED. This game is still so much fun, I think its better than the current motocross games. Hope ya enjoy
@@MBF120 just how bad the new ones are played this game so much as a kid sad to see all the current games feel so much worse i always remembered the game feeling awesome and smooth
@@ajjohnson5926 yea its really crazy how much these games have been on the decline, sure they look amazing graphic wise, but everywhere else they fail.
Tbh in my opinion, none of these newer current games will ever compare to these older classics. Best gaming period to me (in my opinion): 2000s and even early 2010s (like 2010-2012)
Dude, after all these years its great to see people playing the older game and it still getting some props for the things it did right. I'm Robb Rinard, and I was the lead designer on MXU. I designed over a half dozen off-road games and MXU is still my favorite to this day. -robb
No matter how old they get they will always be fun:) if you were actually the lead designer on this game than thats crazy man! You did one heck of a job on this game, especially for its time
@@MBF120 I really was. My biz partner Rick Baltman and I worked on the bike/rider physics for years. First the MCM series, then Off-road Fury series, then MXU. Then Rainbow got sold to a big publisher and they fired me. Cuz I wouldn't shut up about the terrible direction of things.
@@robbrinard6090 i appreciate all the work you did on these games man:) definitely have a lot of memories with these games. What year did they fire you??
I play this game once every few months on my old PS2 from elementary school. I think it’s so cool how these 2000’s games not only stack up with new games coming out but in some cases better.
@@MBF120 sorry for getting back so late, yes the PS2 from my elementary school days surprisingly still works and is playable. Some games skip and freeze but they got small scratches on them (also mostly 12-15 year old games) but the system itself all good.
Such good physics and rider movement! One of my fav features is the ability to rotate the camera slightly to the sides to get a better view of the vehicles/riders
This is my all time favorite motocross game ever and I’ve played a good majority of them all. Something about it not only being a PS2 game along with it being dirt bikes only on top of having my favorite freeride mode ever equaled my favorite game ever growing up as a kid.
I was 11 when this came out. Still play it to this day. I remember me and all my track buds would play this at night at the track. Have tournaments and stuff. Good times man. Good times.
This game is amazing, it was my childhood played it everyday, playing monster energy supercross now but about to whip out the old ps2 and play this again.. also the freestyle maps were so good, something newer games just don’t have
Offroad racing games used to be so much fun back in the day: ATV Offroad Fury 1-4 ATV Quad Power Racing 2 DiRT 1-3 Downhill Domination FlatOut series FREEKSTYLE Motocross Mania 3 MotorStorm series MTX Mototrax MX Rider MX Superfly MX Unleashed MX vs. ATV Unleashed MX vs. ATV Untamed MX vs. ATV Reflex Nail’d Pure Sled Storm Splashdown series SSX series Test Drive: Eve of Destrction Racing games used to have so much fun and care put into them back in the day. These days racing games are soooo boring and way too realistic looking. I’d rather stick with the old stuff. 😭😭😭👌🏾
I just saw this game on the microsoft store and started losing it. I remember the summer I got this game for PS2 when I was a kid. We had all our friends from the neighborhood crowded in me and my brothers room playing this game freestyling, racing trophy trucks, helicopters, etc. This game is legendary and I'm so stoked for it to download.
This was my favorite racing game back in the day. My gosh, and the stuff you could do in the freestyle open world map, legendary. Man, what I wouldn't do to have the games return to a place like this
This game still pisses over the current mx games, I can’t believe how lame they’ve gotten, heck the physics are even better on mx unleashed and bikes sound way better
@@MBF120 don’t get me wrong the graphics and visuals have improvised tremendously but can you imagine how awesome it would be playing the new games with the physics you’re playing on this, my god we need to start a petition 😭😂
Everything you said is true. That's why I'm here right now while it installs on my Xbox one... The game creators for moto games should be EMBARRASSED of themselves in 2022..
Another amazing thing about this game and the sequel is they’re packed full of content and they don’t sell 80% of the tracks as DLC. When I first tried Legends with a Trial and saw there was only 3 or 4 national tracks and the rest had to be bought I just stopped playing. This franchise unfortunately died to me after the ps3/xbox 360 era as the devs ruined it with greed
Dude after unleashed the games went to shit, I think there was a couple decent titles that a few friends told me about but MXVATV unleashed/ Mx Unleashed have some of the best physics of any Mx game imo. They could literally just remake these games with updated graphics and it would be sick. New physics looks like a robot.
I still ocasionally play on xbox one. They sure did great by making it backwards compatible. Playstation could learn about that. This game is my childhood. Probably the one videogame Ive spent most hours playing. It has a place in my heart forever. Thank your for talking about it and keeping ot alive. Can't believe the 1st one is still the best in the series nearly 20 years later.
Ive never played the only mx unleashed. Iv only played the mx vs atv unleashed. Iv tried lookin for it for xbox one but couldn’t ended up finding the mx one only. These are fckin lit tho, i never got into the newer games cause the physics was absolute trash in my opinion
I remember playing this growing up. Last dirt bike game I ever played, I was more into cars. I look back now and don’t know how 5 year old me was playing this
Racing games look shit because the ai always let you be in first almost all the time when I played nascar on the ps2 it was hardcore now that's a racing game.
Hell yeah it is. Ive loved mx unleashed and its held up surprisingly pretty well. Im sure most is nostalgia, but you have the awesome soundtrack, the many unique track environments and fun layouts, big freerides with alot of vehicles and variables to have fun,etc. 🤘
Try mtx mototrax. That game was even better. I still have my old disc but sadly cant play it with xbox one. I still used to play it with the 360 when the game was like 12 years old.
@Mr_Big_Fries You should do more Supercross tracks... I also enjoyed the national tracks black hills, doha, Grandview.. umm the national track with the cable car, and the track... gosh I will have to turn it on and see all the other ones I'm missing. I can also agree in the fact that this MX game is by far the best!
@Mr_Big_Fries I grew up playing this and got really good at this game I bought a Ps2 about a year ago as I didn't have my original one anymore just so I could play the classics! It would be nice to see you upload a bunch of this content even a let's play because there isn't crap out there for this game!
@@lucaswillis7646 expect a bunch of vids coming on this game man! I figured people would enjoy watching some vids of this game. I grew up playing it to so i just absoloutly love playing it!
@@MBF120 Sounds Great! I will continue to subscribe and Watch/Like your videos! Crazy to me how far ahead of its time this game was and still holds up to this day! No microtransactions, and when u bought a game it was a FULL GAME! Not just DLCs and garbage
MX Unleashed is by far my favorite Rainbow Studios ever made, and I have played a lot of their titles, from Motocross Madness 1 and 2 on PC, to ATV Off-road Fury 1 and 2 on the PS2, This game of course and MX Vs. ATV Unleashed and little bit of MX Vs. ATV Untamed, however it is this game I feel that has the best racing, physics model, even the Monster Truck feels incredible in this game compared to MX Vs. ATV Unleashed, the graphics are just right, the way your rider moves with the bike is just smooth and incredible feeling, easily my favorite MX Game ever made. :)
I just recently got my hands on mtx mototrax after years of only playing the demo on Tony hawk's underground the AI is tough as shit in that too but all out's AI is way too easy its still fun to play but mxgp and Supercross are the ones to go to for more of a challenge
I still play it all the time and my 13 year old sister also loves it now. Think I got this game birthday of 2006? Tried playing a PS3 MX game and it just suckeddddd.
@@MBF120 bring them up on the older games first. Probably the best way to do it is to get a nice PC and emulate the PS2. That’s what I do with my laptop if I’m not using my PS2
I have never played mx bikes actually. The more i watch it, the more i wanna buy it. I hear nothing but good stuff about mx bikes, i'm gonna buy it soon for sure
