I'm downloading the demo. Everyone who talked about how good Trials 2 is, also mentioned how unbelievably hard it is.

It doesn't look like my sort of thing. With the level editing tool and everything else bundled in there, it looks like good value for money, even at 1200 points.

It looks like a modern day Kick Start 2, or even ATV simulator



I might have to give this a trial.

It gets hard in the appropriately named hard levels, there is enough fun to be had playing easy, normal, tim trialling easy, and playing all the mini games of which this game offers way more.

Oh and if there's an achievement for clearing hard with no falls I will hunt down and kill everyone at RedLynx. That gooseberry fool's impossible.

Day One.

Or at least it would be, if I wasn't away.

Just been playing the Trials 2 demo, and it's bloody tricky!

It's quite fun, but not really my thing. I'm not big on trial and error style gameplay.

If this is the modern day Kickstart 2, I'm there. (No split-screen multi? That MADE Kickstart 2!)

Is there a multiplayer aspect to this, or is it just time trial stuff like N+?

Either way, this is a must-have title for me.

This is toweringly brilliant. I've got the Steam version but couldn't really get into it with the keyboard controls. Here, the difficulty level is smoother, there's a boatload of extra stuff and it just feels fantastic. What's more, the genuine hilarity at some of the crashes makes the high difficulty far easier to take. I've completed Beginner, Easy and the first couple of stages on Medium and I'm having an absolute blast.

Buy the gooseberry fool out of it, people.

I've queued it for D/L off PNet as I have it on steam, but due to my shitty intergrated GFX card, I get 22fps at best with EVERYTHING on low :( So it'd be nice to play it properly at a steady FPS with everything switched 'on'. Really enjoyed what I have played of it, looking forward to giving it a real shot later. :)

Just got all golds in Beginner and all but 2 in Easy, now to move onto Medium! :twisted: It's bloody addictive though, much better playing it with a joypad (imo) over a keyboard, the adjustments just seem so much easier to make mid jump etc. :D Will defanitely pick this up tomorrow on my retail GT. 8-)

Don't start a game - you'll never make it back to work!
