The editors didn't like
Not a ton of ondisc content
Takes too long to unlock stuff
ATVs kinda suck
No Supercross events
Features
THQ has made it clear that DLC is the future of MX vs. ATV Alive
But what do you actually get for your initial $40 investment? Not much
Unfortunately. You get 18 tracks 12 outdoor motocross tracks
4 short tracks
And 2 open world free ride tracks. A measly 10 bikes 6 MX and 4 ATV
Too much content is locked at the beginning
No unique multiplayer match types
A proper tutorial would have been appreciated to teach the minutiae of the vehicles.
No career mode
Vast majority of tracks are unavailable until you're several hours in

When it comes to racing, MX vs. ATV Alive is fun and calls for serious skill. The reset mechanics are aggravating, but I generally had a great time both on and offline.Unfortunately, most of the content here is imprisoned by a nonsensical unlock struct...
Abstract: Motocross racing is one of those sports that holds a certain mystique for most boys and men. Sure, the sheer brute-force power of NASCAR and the awesome cornering of Formula 1 definitely impress, but neither delivers that constant feeling of awe that c...

Abstract: MX vs ATV Alive promised a brand new RPG-like progression that would be easy to get into for the newbie, but at the same time would provide infinite depth for the hardcore gamer. Well, the game certainly does have an RPG-like progression system, and it...
