The game has been around for years and is still fun for players at all levels. The mechanics and skill needed make the game challenging and it's soccer with rocket boosted cars that fly. Always a great game when you have limited game time.

Great pure FPS. Action, fun, nothing else needed.

In short, the "overall" best MX game I've ever played! I raced MX bikes for years and I know what the real thing feels like. Is it perfect? Hell no. Is it the most fun to play of any MX game? In my opinion, yes!!! Buy it.

----- The Good -----
- Physics: though in air physics aren't perfect, the bike feels closest to the real thing of all MX games I've played (yes I've played MX Sim, just not near as fun and as polished as MESX2)
- Cornering; loss of traction and throttle control are critical or you may spin out
- Graphics: best most realistic graphics racing experience ever!
- Presentation: real announcers, fireworks, track deformation, and dynamic weather (in career mode)
-- you could race a heat in the rain; then in the main Event have clear skies.. Nice!
- Track Editor: the most feature-rich track editor of any MX game; racing your track online is another story
- Factory bikes!!! No made up bike names; you ride the real thing and all bikes have slight differences but are balanced

----- The Bad -----
In-air Physics: you can move the bike left and right / you can pull out of an endo too easily; this makes the game a little easier and some would argue more fun since you will crash less
- Scrubs/Whips: The whips are semi-free; not as good as other MX games, but they do lower the bike off jumps like real scrubs; this game is more focused on racing rather than Freestyle (tricks are only enabled on finish line last lap)
- Online Custom Tracks: you can not view "Favorite" tracks online; only Most Downloaded or Most Liked; this make playing a newly created track impossible; if this change is made the game replay value will sky rocket!!!
