Line selection feels like a massive waste of time in this game. And that’s not even the biggest problem with the gameplay. The gap between turning too much and too little is far too close together for instance.

We get that actually racing in motocross is by no means easy, but the game’s controls just feel too finicky, and no amount of tinkering with the full button-mapping aids that. Even pre-loading the suspension for jumps feels inarticulate: it worked as well when we didn’t press anything as when we did, so eventually we just stopped bothering altogether. The handling and control of the bike actually feels like it took a step back from how things worked in even the first entry. This extends beyond the purely aesthetic stuff as well. This mode – minus a few UI tweaks – feels nigh indistinguishable from the career mode in the first MXGP, but in fairness the career mode was quite good in that. This is especially important in the game's career mode, where you start as a rookie and try and work your to the top as the best rider in the world. The game’s robust tuning and customisation options pervade just about every facet of the title, and while the more casual of you will likely skip the tuning options, the feature set is still quite good.

While the theme of “been there, done that” is an omnipresence running through this title, that also includes some good things. Not to mention, the rain itself looks atrocious. The weather stops and starts as if toggled by a switch, rather than swell and wane, resulting in varying weather that simply feels very rigid. The problem here, though, is that the dynamism feels very wrong. The only standout would have to be the dynamic weather, where you can encounter more than one weather condition per track, as opposed to the usual fixed weather type. In fact we were hard pressed to find anything in this game that actually felt new. There is even an official mode that represents the Motocross of Nations event – which, if you follow motocross, is quite a big deal – but the problem is that much like everything else that we mention, this isn’t new to the series. This doesn’t only apply to the look and feel of the game either. And all of this attention to detail and authenticity, while not new to the series, is appreciated. All of the major bike manufacturers and lots of other licensers are on display, too. The game includes the tracks that are used in the tournament, as well as the actual riders. MXGP 3 is a motocross racing game about the official Motocross Grand Prix tournament, an annual 18-race tournament spanning a large portion of the world.

During that time, has Milestone been able to make any meaningful steps forward in the evolution of this franchise? Skip ahead to present day and Milestone has released the third entry in the series. While it was an alright title, it didn’t exactly blow us away.
