The concept is simple: get a buggy, take off to the beaten track and have fun while doing it. ATV Offroad Fury is created by Rainbow Studios, which is also behind the Splashdown franchise,
the MX Unleashed games and the well known Motocross Madness, and offers an adrenaline-filled experience.
There are 12 all-terrain buggies available in the game. There are also 20 tracks, each with a distinct setting, that can be raced upon. There is also a variety of game modes that can be tackled: Training, Freestyle, Cross Country Endurance, MAXXIS Nationals, Stadium Supercross, Pro Career and also variations of these modes for multiplayer play. For each of the game types listed, the tracks present various objectives that the player must complete.
One good example is Freestyle, where the player gets points based on the moves the buggy does while in the air. During the Pro Career, the player must complete all the races so that he can move along the game path. Other game modes are not as demanding as the Pro Career mode.
The soundtrack of the game is especially fitting, with the following tracks: Alice in Chains - Them Bones; Apollo 440- Yo! Future; Anthrax - Crush; Apollo 440 - "Yo! Future"; Bender - Isolate; Bender - Superfly; Cirrus - Stop and Panic; Primus - Jerry Was a Race Car Driver; Sevendust - Denial; Soundgarden - Spoonman; Strawhorse - Atlanta; Strawhorse - Fishbowl; Strung Out - Mephisto; Strung Out - Scarecrow; Ultraspank - Click; Ultraspank – Crumble.
GAMEPLAY HINTS
Split-X
Press Right + Triangle to do the Split-X trick.
Quick turns
Take the inside of the turn and use the clutch (L1) for a quick turn.
Press Up and the direction you want to drive while accelerating.
Burnout
Go in the reverse and then release Square (Brake). You will see the dirt in the air. It works best with the Havor Razor.
Hold the clutch and then hit the gas. Hold the gas and then release the clutch. You will see the dirt fly up.
Return to track at high speed
In Feestyle mode and on any of the levels, try and go off the track and keep going. You will eventually find a huge fall and then a hill of about the same size (do not fall off). After the hill, you should notice that the landscape turns flat. Continue to drive there and after a short while you should be sent flying back to the track at high speed.
Big air
If you drive your four wheeler to the boundaries of the game world, you can fly a very long way back down to the ground.
Wrecking other racers
When you are launching off a jump as you are over another racer, press L3 and land on them. This may require a few attempts.
