First look: Gravity Games

Midway has released new information on Gravity Games, its upcoming BMX game for the PlayStation 2. The game, which is based on the BMX event in the actual Gravity Games extreme sports competition, lets players select from up to 21 riders, seven of which are real-world professional riders like Dennis McCoy, Fuzzy Hall, Andre Ellison, and Leigh Ramsdell. The game will feature five single-player modes, as well as a number of two-player modes, including graffiti, high five, best run, horse, and team attack. In addition, some of the levels in the game will be taken directly from real-life tracks such as Fuzzy Hall's backyard and the tracks from the Gravity Games competition.

Gravity Games is scheduled for release on the Xbox and PlayStation 2 in May.
