The product is fantastic and was delivered in a reasonable amount of time. The downfall is the shipping charges, unnecessarily high.

I feel it not to receive the product

The Best (the only?) Downhill Mountain Biking Game Ever Made

Downhill domination is one of the best games I have ever played in my life. After you get past the menu (I had a little trouble starting a new game with a character) and choose from one of many different games such as a single event, like a race; the superjump; a career; and a mosh bowl (do I need to explain?) you enter the bike shop where you start the game by choosing a brand-name, real-life bike, from a well-known manufacturer such as Specialized, GT, Giant, and Karpiel; buy special unlocks with the money you make racing opponents, winning races, etc.; view your sponsors and "resume'," and customize bikes with a wide variety of brand-name parts.
From there you can choose from one of nine mountains, each with three different tracks, and then start throwing yourself off cliffs hundreds of feet tall and speeding down rocky trails in speeds excess of sixty miles per hour. Earn points by doing tricks, modifying them in hundreds of ways, and knocking opponents off bikes by kicking, checking, and hitting them with homing water bottles.
I will say it one more time, this is one of the greatest games I have ever played. I highly reccomend you discover this game for yourself, it is worth it.

Where is Downhill Domination 2 ?!!!? DD is still my favorite game after 2 or 3 years!

This game is so addicting and excellent it's been full bore to the wall fun and excitement since we got the demo in the mail 3 years ago! I'm dying for Downhill Domination 2 and I haven't been able to find any news about it's development or release! My son and I battle each other in a custom MX tournament and I rarely win anymore!

Being a mtn biker, and this has to be the first mtn biking game in a while; it's alot of fun, and I can relate to some of the more realistic stuff in the game .... racing and riding (not doing 100 - 400 foot drops and getting HUGE air)

But honestly, actuall mtn biking is SO much better than any game. That's why there are so few mtn biking games out. I reccomend playing this game when you can't ride or just got back from one, but actually riding is always so much better. You probably won't be able to do the stuff in this game, but you can definitely get to be a better biker and do technical downhill singletracks, learn some cool tricks and what not.

You can always ride, if it's dark you have a light, if it's raining then you have water proof clothing, if it's day time then you CAN go commando but it's not reccomended.

Realistic Downhill Racing, Minus the Road Rash

I am absolutely shocked that this game did not get more press or a dedicated fan base. This game is fast, fun, and the environments are awesome. The week it came out, the people at the store where I preordered it from were sick of me phoning to ask when it was coming in!!!

Choose a character, like Cosmo (from the UK) or Mai (from Japan) and a bike and get riding! You can choose from a variety of careers or just race a single race. Then hope on your bike and start riding!

Characters

Other than their name, basic stats, and country of origin, there isn't a lot to know about the characters. You have the opportunity to unlock additional characters, including real-life downhill pro riders. (Is it just me, or does Lisa Lopes look like Xena on steroids?)

Story
This game doesn't have a story, so much as it has different racing courses for you to unlock. The range of available courses is amazing. It includes:

* Mt. Liddleroch in the Scottish highlands, complete with castles and monks
* Mt. Zorkovaska in Russia, with snow and military bases
* Red Pass in USA, modeled after the beautiful rock features one can find in states like Utah

Although there isn't a ''mission'', the game has an awesome range of careers: Mountain Cross, Freeride, Arcade, Race, Technical, and more!

You can also upgrade your bicycle in the Bike Shop, which provides a wide range of tires, shocks, and frames. The Shop also provides a list of your sponsors (which you acquire the more you achieve in each of the various careers). You can also buy Extras, some of which can greatly enhance your biking stats!

Graphics and Sound
Wow, wow, wow. For a title that listed at $39.99 at its release, the graphics are far better than I imagined. No slowdown, no loading times within levels, and great detail on both the characters and the environments.

I usually hate the ''popular'' music that accompanies games (with THPS being the rare exception), but the music that comes with DD is far better than I expected. I usually mute the music on racing games, but this game is enhanced by the soundtrack.

Will This Gather Dust?
There are a lot of things to unlock in this game -- things that I will not spoil the surprise with in this review. It has a high replay value for me, as I play it at least an hour or so a week, even 4 months after its release.

Overall Recommendation:
If you like downhill sports racing (Freekstyle, SSX, Amped, 1080), you'll like this.

If you like tight controls and cool tricks, you'll like this.
If you like realistic sports simulations, you'll like this.

They should have called this Downmounting Domination
