    Everyone keeps talking about Trials HD on podcasts and gaming websites, and yet somehow no one has mentioned a little game called called "Elastomania" or as I knew it as, "Across". I got this game of a friend years ago, I'm pretty sure it was free or shareware at least, but it basically is "Trials HD" just in 2D, you just control the tilt and the speed, how has this been overlooked? I managed to find the website www.elastomania.com where you can download the demo. Does anyone know about this or am just crazy?

    The whole concept of a side-view-bike-across-an-obstacle-course has been done to death on a gazillion of crappy flash games. I used to play them all the time in school. Trials HD looks cool though, considering that it's got a ton of features and looks gorgeous. Plus the ragdoll looks hilarious!

    Far from it, Motocross Maniacs came far far before ANY flash game, yet it probably wasn't even the first.

    No. Trials HD was called Trials 2.
    Also, ive never seen elastomania called across, also elastomania wasn't the first of that type of motocross game.
