utter crap, can't believe I bought this
Graphics: Sucky, even for the release date. I mean, SSX Tricky was ridiculously pretty at the time, and this doesn't even compare. The tracks are all ridiculously bland, the riders indistinguishable, and the bikes themselves are all pallet swaps when it comes to different stats. Fail.
Gameplay: As bad as the graphics. You can go through a typical track in 3 laps, go for a more free-roaming race, or do the horrible stunt mode. Why is the stunt mode horrible? Because the trick controls are incredibly unresponsive and take up to 2 seconds to register that you pressed something as simple as >x. The other riders are either incredibly stupid or insanely awesome. The only fun bit is going off course in the baja (free-roam) mode, because it launches you pretty far back into the stage. Fail.
Music: As bland as the track design. Fail.
