The first thing you will notice when entering the game (or the excellent practice mode) is the simple and yet well-designed control system. Controlling a quad is very much like riding a motocross bike but which the extra stability provided by the 4 wheels. The game appears to simulate the physics of the ATVs quite well too, and while they ride wonderfully along most terrain, a harsh landing at the wrong angle will send your rider flying through the air before crashing to the ground in an uncompromising heap.

This sort of game is very dependant on good track design, so its with much elation that I can say the developers have done an excellent job. Not only are the tracks gorgeous to look at (even though a couple of them are rather sparse dirt-related affairs) each bump and turn accurately models the physics you would expect to encounter in real life racing. Players must always be focused on keeping up the speed of their ATV (this is a great game for those who love to hold down the acceleration button constantly) and must also judge the angles of their jumps in order to land safely and prepare themselves for any upcoming ramps or turns.
