1.0 out of 5 stars No good, January 11, 2001

This review is from: Xtreme Sports (Video Game)

Xtreme Sports is no good. I bought it and returned it 3 days later. Xtreme Sports is good for 5 min. of play. The snowboarding is awsome!!!!!!! ATV is cool!!! The Rest (boo!! boo!! boo!!). The game is setup like this: You can choose from 4 characters (which is terrible). The gameplay is like a triatholon. You choose a certain coarse and each coarse has a different order the sport goes in. For Example if you picked one of the tracks it will have Snowboarding, ATV, Speedgliding. You start off with the snowboarding then you run to the ATV then you run to the hangliding. The snowboarding is good because you can do awsome tricks and land them eaisily. The ATV is cool b/c you can also do tricks and it's fun how your speeding up and down a rocky road trying to get in first place. The hangliding is horrible it's so slow and all you do is try to get these ballons so you can go faster. Plus every time when it says pres AAAAAAAA to release you from the hangliding you never land in the right spot and you have to run all the way back to the finishing circle and you loose. When you start off with the game you can only play Snowboarding, ATV, Speedgliding, and Mountain Biking. They two player mode is bad b/c if one player dosen't reach the checkpoint in time to switch sports you have to GAME OVER and that'll probably be the case if you're playing with your friend who's never played before. Point is I thought this would be a tight game b/c of the theme of XTREME SPORTS but I fell into the trap, bought the game, and returned it. Even if you don't believe me I bet you'll get the game and you wont like it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great game!, January 18, 2002

If your tired of playing the traditional sporting games, then this game is for you. It's got a good variety of non-traditional games including bungee jumping, skysurfing, bmx, 4-wheel, and snow boarding. Play by yourself or with a friend. Great visual effects and good controls.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome, March 19, 2001

I really thought this game would suck, I hadn't heard a good review on it. I went ahead and bought it because I got a good deal on it and I'll admit I hated it at first but after you play it for awhile and get used to the controls it is awesome. Is it challenging yes, will it become a cakewalk no. Anything can happen in this game your not going to learn the controls and totally dominate the game everytime. I love it it's well Awesome.
