I would pay so much money to play this on my PS3 
Nice timing on the new DLC, just finished the Big Pack today. Mostly bronze medals, admittedly, but you've got to know your limitations :lol
My brother loves Trials 2 on PC but only has a PS3, no 360, so I'd like to see a PS3 version too.TerryLee81 said:I would pay so much money to play this on my PS3
HOLY FUCK this game is awesome and addictive... I can't believe I payed 400 msp for it+240 for the expansion :lol I've cleared all the tracks except Goin' Up, Inferno II and the DLC Hard/Extreme tracks.
That Goin' Up though... it's impossible! My problem is the hill climb move, that is landing on something that's nearly vertical, quick-tapping the gas and then climbing. My problem is that as I land, I need to lean back a bit to land straight on the incline. When I do, my bike starts tipping over backwards, and as I start to give the gas, I also try to tip forward to avoid flipping over backwards. But when I lean forward, my back wheel bounces off the ground and I fall Sometime I don't bounce, but I can't figure out why. I just can't seem to get it down consistently... I've come as far as the second to last slope on Goin' Up, but by then I'm at like 25 minutes and there's no way I can clear the last two that fast. Help me GAF I've watched Youtube videos but it doesn't really help...

go back to King of the hill and get good at it. it will help a lot with Goin Up.
when you learn that skill and others, then you begin to see the true brilliance of Trials. have fun! it can be addictive.

Trailer for the Big thrills!
Nice to have the trailer out(and of course the DLC), I almost went crazy with Beethoven blasting away at full volume all day long in the office. (yes, I'm a Artist @ Redlynx. Antti made me do this shameless commercial post

Youtube? Bah! Pro tip: go to the track selection, then go to leaderboards, then tab over to all players. You can watch the best players in the world and it shows their movements on a virtual analog stick and triggers.
Though some of those guys' runs are not practical for just completing the track. If you want, friend me, GT: Najaf. I have platinum on all tracks except for three of the expert tracks. On those I have golds. All of my hard and expert times are replay featured so you can see a 'normal' person go through them.

Wow ,really? I was looking for a "watch leaderboard replays" feature but couldn't find it. Thanks! It's really amazing how you get noticeably better everytime you play a track. I tried Goin' Up a few more times today and suddenly I could do the beginning sections in just a few tries whereas before it took me look 5 mins just to get up the first hill

Yeah, they host something like the top 3,000 times' replays on each track. Its great because anyone, if they dedicate to one track can get a replay featured. If you have friends who play trials, you likely dont need to go to all players to see replays. Usually your friends will have some top times on some of the tracks and its nice to see how they are doing things straight from the friends leaderboard tab.

Taking a break helps a lot. Sometimes you get stuck in a really bad rut with this game. Kind of like a hitter going into a slump in baseball.
I can't wait to sink my teeth into the new dlc.

Man, no kidding. The 2:SE Insane levels make HD's Insane levels look like Wind Waker.SmokyDave said:

taking a break means trying other tracks before going back to the one giving you trouble. there is always room for improvement on every track.
you know youre hooked when youve attained platinum and you still go back for more.
blood, sweat. and tears. no mustard on my bike.
I went back to the DLC pack #1 before trying DLC #2 out and I realized I never finished pack 1 because the 2nd to last track on hard where at the very beginning, 4 feet from the starting line, there are these angled vents an inch of the ground and no matter what I do I can't get past them. Which is weird because I even beat some of the Extreme stages but I can't climb this stupid vent :lol
Anyhow started on DLC pack #2, so goooood. Still my favorite downloadable game this gen
