  Gravity Games Bike Review for PlayStation 2 - Gaming Age   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
When quality games like these are available, any challengers to the throne must bring something new and addictive to the table in order to compete.
Control is paramount in trick-based games of this type, and there's no way on earth that Gravity Games Bike comes close to doing what it should.
These kind of bugs should have been caught in Midway's QA during the game's development - and if these bugs were caught and the game was shipped anyways, I can only shake my head at this apparent disrespect to the intellect of the gaming public.

 Gravity Games: Street, Vert, Dirt
Gravity Games is based on the bike competition that is well known for its extreme riding that includes box and dirt jumping, and halfpipe comps.
One thing that is going to help make this a great game is the fact that there have been over 400 motions captured to give a more realistic and human look to the riders.
Another thing that is set up to make this game give you a high extreme feel is the insane tricks that you couldn’t pull off that real life Gravity Games allows.

 PS2 VIDEO GAME REVIEWS... Gravity Games Bike: Street. Vert. Dirt. __________|
Graphically, this game is on par with some of the best PS One games, but fails to come close to the graphical look of some of the PS2's launch titles.
One of the more interesting glitches in the game is that your rider never actually rides on the ground, but instead rides 'in' the ground causing them to look like they are riding in quicksand rather than pavement.
As with many 'me too' games that have come out as of late, the idea is there, but there isn't a very firm grip on why people like the game in the first place.

 Gravity Games Bike: Street Vert Dirt (PlayStation 2) Reviews. PlayStation 2 Games Reviews by CNET.   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
Every time a trendsetting game is released to critical and commercial acclaim, a bevy of also-rans and clones are bound to follow.
Grinds and stalls are stupidly easy to balance, and the game's trick system actually rewards you for doing one trick over and over again, meaning the easiest way to score points is to merely stall the bike on a lip and continually jump up and down, landing a lip trick each time.
The game has manuals, which, if done properly, will let you string tricks together and extend combos, but the timing on the manuals is also a complete mess.

 GameSpy.com - Review
But where most games that "use" the Tony Hawk formula manage to achieve at least a semblance of engaging gameplay, Gravity Games: Street Vert Dirt has emerged buggy, broken, and nigh unplayable.
All the mistakes committed by earlier games in the category are present in Dirt, but they're magnified exponentially by the game's technical flaws.
Most of these objectives will be level specific, but many will be recurring throughout the span of the game -- the ones that call for you to amass a certain point count within a single run, for instance.

Gravity Games Bike: Street Vert Dirt was originally planned for release on all three major console platforms.
The Xbox version of this game isn't quite as muddy as the PS2 version was from a texture standpoint, but that's not to say that this game looks good in any way.

 IGN: Gravity Games Bike: Street. Vert. Dirt. Review
With the game including the word "gravity" in its title, one would assume that some measure of real world physics would be present.
In fact, gravity is practically the only rule of physics that actually exists in this game at all, even as poorly as it's implemented.
Most of the game's goals are incredibly easy, and often so stupid that your forehead will hurt from slapping it so much.
