Quick Look: Trials Evolution

The part where the guy humping the cement bags should be used in the next I Love Mondays™.

Face first into the dirt! Love that.

This looks like a ton of fun. I hope it eventually makes it to the PC.

That SPHERE track reminds me of all the Deathruns I have ever played...

XBLA games are getting better than $60 disc games.

And some $60 disc games are becoming XBLA games.... *I Am Alive*

@Amored: As much as some Norwegians like to think it's a big thing, noone else cares at this point.

I'm not Norwegian, but from neighboring Sweden, and the trial is a huge thing over here. It's also all over BBC World and Euronews.

I didn't say it wasn't news, I said people don't care. Or rather, they care about as much as they will care about what's news tomorrow.

I definitely care, since the eventual outcome of a tragedy as horrific as this one helps to define the outer boundaries of civilized society. How the justice system treats and punishes the worst criminals is a good indication of the public's common values at a given time. I don't think many people here are keeping up with the trial's daily goings on, though.

That was sorta my point. Expecting people that's not close to the case to be sensitive to the fact that the trial started this week is sorta irrational, as they wouldn't pay attention to it unless they happened to read/watch it through news. Sure it's sorta hard to avoid it here in Norway, but I'm pretty sure most people in other countries wasn't aware it was happening this week.

Being from Sweden, I try to, but it's easy to get tired of all the "Video Games are to blame" propaganda that everyone not in the know seems to so discreetly want to convey.

Twas a day 1 purchase.

"Gonna get stuck in it if it gets much wetter..." lmao

Brad "knee jerk criticism" Showmaker. Boo. At least Jeff was there to keep him in check.

This took me by surprise as I actually enjoyed my time with it unlike the previous game. Was able to get all gold medals in the demo and dress my dude in pink. This may end up going on my wish-list.

Wow, Brad is having an off day! It's painful watching him try to land after awkwardly jacking the bike forward for seemingly no reason after every jump. It makes landing even the easiest jumps nearly impossible. Brad, you make me sad :( but I still love you. <3

Who else was hoping they'd turn on bailout finish in multiplayer? It is by far the funniest thing I discovered by accident when playing with friends last night.

Really want to pick this up. may do it soon. still working on fez though and I'd rather not miss out on that one.

I grew up watching Kick Start, then I wanted to join the mini imps. Now I'm 34 Trials is living the dream without busting my balls

This really needs to come to PC. Such a bad move to completely ignore the PC Audience even though the first games were successful on PC.

Can someone upload a recreation of their user map? Best map ever.

@Max_Cherry: What's the problem, dude?

It amuses me how everyone acts like Giant Bomb is some boy band.

"Nuh-uh! Ryan is the hottest one! Vinny is just there to work the cameras."

"Oh, yeah? Jeff is the one with all the talent. Ryan could be replaced with any pretty boy on the block."

I know trying to get the internet to stop bitching about petty things is like pissing into the wind, but the level of commentary on this video is ridiculous. Don't you people have bigger problems to complain about? If not, holy shit, go out and find some, because life is not to be wasted on such trivial nonsense.

Everybody knows Dave is the cutest.

Kickstart hell yeah, I know it!

They also did the same thing on minibikes in season 1 of Nitro Circus... or every episode.

As far as this coming to the pc....guys come on some modes in this game would not go very well with a keyboard and mouse...sorry...and coming from a pc player I should know...also...I bought the game on my 360 just because of this quick look!

As a PC player, you should know it's pretty easy to plug a controller into a PC and play that way.

Even with Trials 2 on the PC, you can plug in a gameplay and play. That's no longer an excuse for a game not coming to the PC. Not that it ever has been.

Having said that, I have no real illusions that this is coming to the PC, RedLynx hasn't even brought stuff to the PC that they claimed they were going to previously, so it's pretty clear they've abandoned that platform for now.

So I went ahead and bought the 360 version, cause it's still pretty awesome.

Thank you Brad, you made my day with this =)

Brad is just as awful as ever. Love it.

Trial Indoor hosted in my city (I was actually there that day) You can see a multiple indoor and outdoor world champion here making some super technical jumps.

We should start playing fuck-marry-kill with the GB crew. And instead of loyalty in our profiles being for Sony/Microsoft/etc., it should be for specific GB staff.
