The unholy cursing that took place wasn't directed at Freekstyle's design or gameplay, but rather, how dreadfully challenging the game manages to be. [July 2002, p.82]
Freekstyle is a solid and often fun game that is sadly plagued by some niggling faults and the knowledge that both in terms of the genre and game style, this has been done better before.
eu amei este jogo! me divertir bastante, mas também sofrir muito nas fases de circuito. Minha critica é que a EA pecou em o jogador ter que jogar muito para concluir uma só fase, e falta de mais pistas diferentes e desafiadoras. me divertir muito e concerteza merece o título de greatest hits
Don't expect to be playing the reincarnation of SSX Tricky here folks, this one is hard. Extremely hard. To the point of insanity hard. For example, level one alone is quite a challenge to make it through. The AI is downright ruthless and it took me nearly five hours to make it past this track, and that's saying something as I'm usually the type who can fly through any game out there. The track design, and speed is amazing. The motion blur is very very cool, and the jumps pack quite a punch but most of them are near impossible to land with the precision needed to do so. Crash once, and you may as well forget it and start all over unless you are the master of hidden areas then maybe you have a shot if the opponent doesn't boost it past you at the last second of the Main Event. And yes, you must place 1st on the third race of each track to make it to the next level. ARRRGH! SSX Tricky was so easy, but come on now EA, did you really think that boosting the difficulty to insane level would make this that much better?! And no, you cannot change the difficulty here. FRUSTRATING. I just hope to master this one at some point before I throw the game out the window.
Not really a fun game, the only thing that I found fun was crashing the bike into obstacles. The tricks were really hard to do and not really that impressive.
SummaryPicture flying through rugged terrain with massive jumps at more than 70 mph, hitting a 40-foot jump at the ledge of a 200-foot cliff, and pulling off a Backflip, a Tsunami and a 360 all before you land. If you've got the guts to get this done, then Freekstyle is for you! Race as one of eight different riders in any one of the nine aweso...
