Trials HD/Evolution

[MeenieWK]

Yo good people.

Discuss all things frustrating, infuriating and amazing.... AKA TRIALS... The greatest Live arcade title, thus far...... in this thread.

Any other fans?

also, importantly, does anyone know when Trials Evolution is due to be released?

 

[MeenieWK]

NO ONE on here plays this?

Was it not released in teh states or something?

 

[Cuyan]

I played the absolute crap out of some Trials. Made tracks and the whole bit. I still pick it up every now and again but with the new one on the horizon, I don't feel the need to go back to it. I'll just wait.

 

[MeenieWK]

I read a rumoured release date of 30th Dec.

They are cutting it close considering the did initially say it Would definatley be released in 2011

 

[MeenieWK]

Supposedly the XBL dash listing for Trails Evo stated 18th April.

This was then removed.

Six Weeks from Today..... i might explode before then.

Trials came out 3 years ago. Yeah there is a sequel coming out, but there's really not much to discuss.

 

[MeenieWK]

A sequel to one of the biggest XBLA titles thus far.

Its not just some tin pot game that no one plays, and the changes and advances in the new one will make it a huge online hit.

I mean, people still discuss alan wake.. .and lets be honest, the less said about that "game" the better

 

[OEsuperman]

I actually made a Trials HD map that was supposed to resemble the Bat Cave. Wish they had the ability to upload instead of share from peer to peer though!

Whoa whoa whoa, Alan Wake is easily top 3 on the 360 and is without a doubt one of the games of this generation. Trials is great and I can't wait for Evolution here in about 3 minutes when I download it but to say its better than Alan Wake, just no

No offence intended dude..

But I must ask are you American?

It seem that Alan wake is rated far higher in America generally than anywhere else. Dunno why but I can't remember anyone who enjoyed it or reading any good reviews... Most generally see it as massive let down and essentially naff.
With the exception of Americans who seem to really dig it.

I wouldn't even put Alan wake in the same league as trials, let alone anywhere near as good.

Seriously, A.W was universally slated.

Also

I am crazy jealous that you get it in 3 minutes

Trials evo gives you the option to upload and share... However, I would love to try your course, you can add me if you like.. Xbl name meenie77

The creativity in these courses are just mind boggling. Every one feels very different from the last and they all have very cool things going on. This game is a must buy for any xbox owner

 

[Donut]

How is the online stuff ? I loved the first one but that was seriously missing online play. Also can you import Custom Tracks online ?

 

[jacobed]

haven't tried too much online yet. The editor stuff is amazing though. It reminds me alot of the Guitar Hero editor. Where you have top rated, top downloaded tracks and when you download them its basically instant.

It really is frickin amazeballs.

the addition of the curved driving lines makes a crazy difference to the game play also.

stunning game ... and ive only run through upto the medium levels so far.

 

[Master Chief]

Hahah I really like the themed levels, especially the ones based on Limbo, Inception and Alan Wake. >:]

I skipped Trials HD coz the perfectionist in me can't play these punishing games. I took the plunge this time though coz the tracks look amazing. I think I have like 500 restarts so far? lol but I've got no complaints.

 

[MeenieWK]

Gigatrack (probably used the wrong name here) the last Medium track is utterly punishing.
7 minutes if surprise intense concentration, left me in need of a swift beer.

The Limbo track was a lovely surprise i must say.

 

[jacobed]

Not only is it long but there are not very many checkpoints

 

[jacobed]

This is without a doubt one of the best games of the year and a must buy for anyone who has xbla but my god the soundtrack is easily one of the worst ever. It is just awful

 

[Donut]

So this game is worth the $20 ? Might buy it soon

 

[jacobed]

Well its 15 and if you liked the first one or you can handle the frustration than yeah its an absolute must buy

I normally just go for the 1600 Points bundle on Amazon, or the Marketplace. So it is $19.99. So it is 20 for me. No need for more then one purchase. There is no 1200 Points option

I had to settle for silver medals yesterday.

I was shattered.

EDIT: Had to settle for more this morning

 

[jerkhero]

Great game, already finished all the tracks and only missing two achievements (squirrels and the tournament without faults). Anyone think this is a bit easier than the first Trials? At least i haven't raged nearly as much as with the first one. However extreme tracks still took hundreds of faults. I don't know if i have the patience to try even silver medals on those.
