Mini Review Monster Jam Showdown (PS5) - Familiar, Enjoyable Monster Truck Madness
Show off your skills
The Monster Jam series is no stranger on PlayStation, with many entries. However, after Rainbow Studios developed the middling MTX vs ATV Legends, the licence landed with Milestone, which produced the recent Hot Wheels Unleashed series. With Monster Jam Showdown, the studio has brought its experience and racing finesse to the...
Review Hot Wheels Unleashed 2: Turbocharged (PS5) - A Fast and Furiously Fantastic Follow-Up
Magnificent modifications
We remember as kids setting up our Hot Wheels Octoblast and Shark Park race tracks every weekend, launching cars round them at high speeds while avoiding the giant creatures. It always brought such joy to our young selves back in the day, and so it's great to see that Milestone has captured the essence of that nostalgia and...
Review Hot Wheels Unleashed (PS5) - Fun Toy Car Racer Makes the Most of Its Licence
Beat that
Republished on Wednesday 28th September 2022: We're bringing this review back from the archives following the announcement of October's PlayStation Plus lineup. The original text follows. After years spent fine-tuning its various motorcycle racing titles, developer Milestone has taken a significant detour with Hot Wheels Unleashed...
Review RIDE 4 (PS5) - A Motorcycle Crash Felt from the Inside of the DualSense
Wheelie not very good
Next-gen upgrades are a fantastic way to give a game extra polish and enhance the overall experience by taking advantage of the more powerful hardware. Three months after the launch of RIDE 4 on the PlayStation 4, the game was given a new PlayStation 5 version. While there are glimmers of potential under the surface, especially...
Review MXGP 2020 - The Official Motocross Videogame (PS5) - Not Just Another Scrub
Jump the gate
The MXGP titles have been slowly inching their way forward through the years, generally only seeing minor changes with each iteration. Luckily, Milestone has crafted a pretty solid bedrock upon which to build its racing titles, and this latest entry — the series’ first foray on the PlayStation 5 — represents the franchise’s...
Review MotoGP 20 - Another Exciting Ride, If You Can Handle It
A tricky balancing act
Milestone has made a name for itself as the de facto developer of motorbike racing games. If you trace it back, the Italian studio has been crafting this niche subset of racers for about 20 years. To say it has experience with two-wheeled motorsport would be a grave understatement. However, despite its expertise and dedication...
Mini Review Monster Energy Supercross: The Official Videogame 3 - Nights and Bikes
On yer bike
Monster Energy Supercross: The Official Videogame 3 – or, to give it its full title and pad out our word count, Monster Energy AMA Supercross 3 FIM World Championship: The Official Video Game – proves that Milestone may just be the most prolific developer of the generation. By our count, this is its 20th title on the PlayStation 4...
Review Monster Energy Supercross: The Official Videogame - A Disappointing Ride
Road rash
Republished on Wednesday 27th November 2019: We're bringing this review back from the archives following the announcement of December's PlayStation Plus lineup. The original text follows. Racing games are dime a dozen, but while most focus on cars or more “extreme” sports, it’s relatively slim pickings when it comes to motocross and...
Review RIDE 3 - High-Octane Motorcycle Realism
Wheely quite something
If there’s one thing that RIDE 3 has in spades, it’s content. The sheer number of tracks and bikes to unlock, not to mention available modifications, is head spinning. Poor old motorcycle sim games seem to live in the shadow of their four wheeled brethren and are usually reserved for a more niche audience as a result. The...
MXGP Con
Milestone releases a large number of racing games every year. Some of them aren’t half bad, such as Gravel, while others, chiefly its motorcycle games, leave something to be desired. Unfortunately, MXGP Pro is one of the motorcycle games, and while this is nowhere near as bad as the absolute debacle that was MXGP 3, it’s a definite step...
