So I've clocked in a solid 15 or so hours on Trials Fusion as of now, platinum'd all beginner, easy and medium tracks and got a gold medal in everything else, and I must admit that, much like HD and Evolution, this is a high quality game. Here's a quick bullet point review from my opinion on the game.

Awesome Stuff:[/b]
- Fusion World track editor (essentially a Forge World for Trials)
- Notifications of when a friend beats your time
(not that I'd ever need it personally, har har, but seriously)
- Plenty of rider and bike swag
- Sweet new rides (a quad bike for example)
- Incredible system for downloading user tracks and skill games
- Quality tracks all round (not as many as in Evo though, it seems)
- Tricks mode is simple and pretty addictive imo. Probably not everyone's cup of tea but the game doesn't shove it down your throat or anything. It's a nice fresh way to play, much like skill games.
[b]Not So Awesome Stuff:[/b]
- Total removal of online multiplayer, even just with friends. Supposedly the Evo MP wasn't popular enough, but it's still a major disappointment
- A new MP mode to replace the Evolution multiplayer is in the works but won't be ready for months at least. Nobody likes finding out their game is unfinished.
- Season pass is basically the same price as the game. Seriously?
Anyway, what do [i]you[/i] think of Fusion?

Waiting for PC.
