Supercross is a motocross app for the iPhone and iPod Touch. The game features some rich graphics and wonderfully smooth gameplay. The game allows the player to choose from 3 different modes of play: Time Trials, Practice, and Racing. While practicing, players will notice that there are many different control schemes to choose from. For the sake of this review, I am using the joystick version. If the player does decide to use tilt instead, the game will give them options to adjust the sensitivity as well.
The game will throw the player onto many different tracks to race around but I found myself just doing the training course over and over and practicing my jumps.
The camera can be changed from two third person views to a first person over-the-handlebar view which completely changes the feel. In a race, the game will automatically adjust the number of AI racers depending on how well your phone is performing. This keeps the game running silky smooth while you glide over the mounds of dirt. Overall, 2XL Supercross is another great hit from the 2XL company and has a great feel that is hard to find on most iPhone games. Not to mention that the graphics look pretty good.
If you like games that run really smooth and throw you into the racing action with some great jumps and controls, you'll like Supercross. Even though it is priced a bit higher in the app store, it has just the right amount of gameplay and graphics to pull you into the experience. Check it out.
