Trials HD is one of my favorite Xbox Live Arcade games to date! TrialsHD is a great 4th person motorcycle racing game. The object of the game is to fly through the course, and maneuver across the obstacles as fast as you can.
What I love most about this game, is the physics engine. Once you have played this game as long as I have, you learn predict, and control how and where your character goes. There is also anti-gravity physics available in DLC, but we`ll get into that a bit later in the review.
TrialsHD brings you 35 tracks, and 12 mini-games, which are divided between beginner, easy, medium, hard and expert mode. I personally find the mini-games more fun than the actual tracks.
The mini-games and tracks are fun and all, but we haven`t even touched the best part of the game, that`s right, the track editor! The track editor has to be one of the most complex editors on the Xbox 360. If you want more of a picture drawn for you, imagine halo forge mode, but more industrial. There is really no limit on what you can do in the track editor, you can make helicopters, gravitational pulls, catapults...etc.
There are also two DLCs for TrialsHD that offer more tracks, more mini-games, more track editor items, and more fun! I strongly recommend you get the DLCs if you buy TrialsHD.
Now to leave you with my closing thoughts. TrialsHD Is a great classic that never gets old, I might even go play some now!
