Yeah I will absolutely not refer to anything as "lites"

And "an sx" seems to sound ok to me. just depends on what happens when your eyes roll over the "sx." If you hear "supercross" it sounds dumb, but if you read it like it sounds, then it flows better. Man I didn't realize what an opinion I had on the matter...

Only 6 and a half more hours til I get to play the demo.

I see misuse of pretty much everything that can be confused on this board and 99% of it flies by without anyone saying a word, minus the one jackass who uses bad spelling and grammar to correct the same thing. I'm surprised THIS of all things would be a point worth actually talking about, because even if it is grammatically correct "I went to a SX" sounds goofy. I have yet to hear anyone say to me "I went to a SX" in my life, it's always I went to a Supercross or I went to an SX. Sorry but it's a crazy thing to knit pick when there's so much wrong with the common mans ability to type and speak his own language.

Demo is really challenging and fun. Rode the national track more than a dozen times. Pretty sick how the track changes lap to lap. The random times when the rider pulls off a tearoff are big bonus points there for me. Smile

But no SX track. Sad Well, I guess with Untamed, it was a SX track in the demo and this year its a national. But its a demo and it did its job very well since now, I really can't wait to get the full deal. I will definitely pre-order one now!

Great job RBW_Triton and everyone at Rainbow.

I agree. The one thing which really bugs me though is the amount of contact you get from other riders, its almost like its on "arcade" mode and the riders are targeting you. I just want to throw down some fast laps without some cyborg racer hitting me in the back of the helmet with his footpeg as he flies off a jump sideways.

I think it depends on if your the type of person who reads acronyms as they are or you actually read the acronym as the words its representing in your head. I usually read it as the word.

If you are looking for a target for the National, 53.7 on the 450 and 56.6 on a 250f.

I saw on the MX vs. ATV forum. I'm at a 57 after a dozen or so times on the 450.

Maybe this is already common knowledge, but I have a theory.

When you say the letter S (as in SX), the letter S actually sounds like it starts with an E. Spelled - Ess. It sounds like it starts with a vowel.

So, this is why it sounds better to say an SX instead of a SX, but a SX is correct.

Actuallly, if you get out in front off the start and lead the whole thing, they wouldn't bother you. Smile I like getting a bad start and working my way through. Sooooo sketchy and fun! Scrubbin' this. Scrubbin' that. I love it how when you get in a lil rhythm and starting doing things on the edge and somehow, not impale yourself into a tree or sign. Smile But that happens for me like once every 3 races haha. Must be the one rider choice in the game = RC. Smile

Surprisingly I get nervous in the game out front but not in real life. Im one of those guys who gets kinda motion sickness when playing fast moving games like this. Really bums me out cause I love playing them. I just cant for more than a few minutes at a time. :-/

wow, totally different from the previous one. Wow. Realism is outstanding, terrain is REAL, graphics/definition is top. Handling is definitely a challenge, more on the simulation side than pure gaming. It's really fun but it's going to take some time to use think of using the right stick all the time.

Congrats, amazing work.
