Motocross Madness is the first motocross racing video game series in the Madness series. It is developed by Rainbow Studios[2] and published by Microsoft.[3]
Gameplay[]
The player races on the Baja track Arizona Waypoint #1.
The game is known for its realism, including terrain, audio, and "bone-chilling" motorcycle wrecks. If the player is in Stunt mode, goes out of bounds, and gets on a large cliff, an "invisible slingshot" will cause the player and the bike fly across while a funny sound plays until both objects will hit the ground.[4] The "invisible slingshot" effect was also used in the game ATV Offroad Fury, also created by Rainbow Studios.[5]
