MX vs. ATV: Untamed puts you in control of everything from minibikes to monster trucks, but does it hit all the right jumps or crash and bail?
It might only be January 2nd and most of the games industry might still be sleeping off its holiday hangover, but that hasn't stopped THQ from trying to get our new year temperatures up with these latest videos for MX vs ATV Untamed.
MaxConsole.net "MaxConsole reader Kevin has mailed in to let us know his frustrations regarding false advertising on MX vs ATV Untamed for the PS3. The Official website and GameStop advertise it as having a 12 player multiplayer but it only has 8 player multiplayer. He indicates that the game is just a 'crappy port' of the 360 version and the gas and break are supposed to be analog but they are not and the graphics are so grainy they may as well be in a PS2 game."

Major Nelson Shares some information on this new demo for XBL:
THQ have announced that their best-selling off-road racing franchise will be heading to a number of consoles, including the Wii, Nintendo DS, Xbox 360, PS3, PSP and PSP in 2008. It is the first time the franchise has appeared on Nintendo consoles. "We've taken the core MX vs ATV racing experience and tailored game-play to match the strengths of each individual gaming machine" says THQ. It's good to see THQ pony up with some Wii and DS titles outside there normally Nintendo portfolio (ie kids games).
