Hard as I tried, I just couldn’t see the shine in this game. I had a go at the trial version (Hee, trial Trials), but after about half an hour of wondering where it was supposed to be fun I closed the window and uninstalled it. Maybe I just missed the point somewhere along the line?

What JJ said. If it had a track editor, it would be Trackmania Bikes.

Awesome, awesome game.

I just bought it. “Damn you Kieron!”, cries my wallet.

Yes, I read somewhere it was coming to Steam. Any word on that yet?
I really like to buy this one, but if it’s comming to Steam, I’ll hold out a bit (jumped the gun with World of Goo).
Trials reminds me a bit of Trackmania. Except with a motorbike of course. But it’s the same sort of rush, starting a track over and over again :-)

I also paid Real-Life Great English Monies Sterling for this. It’s fantastic! Only 7 places from taking Team RPS!

Ouch.

OK, well I’m not quite as bad as Optimaximal.

I think the trick is that it only takes small adjustments to make a big difference to the rider yet I keep mashing at the keyboard.

But even those Easy tracks are brutally hard… It took me over an hour to do the fucking Tutorial…

I fail :(

Okami: NO-ONE SHOULD LEAVE RPS. Er… fixed.

Del boy: I find it best to repeatedly play the Easy ones before moving onto the Medium.

I actually bought this with real money and everything.

It’s so UNBELIEVABLY HARD and I’m so UNBELIEVABLY BAD…..I’m actually worried about having a wireless keyboard because one day I’m going to throw it out of a window in frustration.

I did somehow manage to get to 500th in the world on one of the medium ones though, I’ve no idea how.

uhmm… there’s no link to the eurogamer article. Both of your links lead to the same RPS article about Trials 2..
