Thankfully, getting restored and back on the track is a fast enough process that you don't feel cheated when you crash. Whether it's not landing from a jump properly, falling off the track, going out-of-bounds, or crashing into something, you'll be falling off your bike a lot. Of course, with the length of many of these courses in mind, you're bound to have an accident or two- or twenty- in a given run. It's absolutely vital to keep your cool and your concentration.
Finding the best racing line is something that takes a little patience to perform, but when you finally do discover it, it's a truly rewarding feeling.īesides alternate paths, courses in Downhill Domination are littered with forests, fauna, rocks, logs, trees, wildlife, secret passages, shortcuts, and more to keep riders on alert and aware of their surroundings at all times. You're encouraged to travel off the beaten path (but not out-of-bounds) and take risks to discover killer shortcuts and impressive jump opportunities. It's never just one particular path you have to go. The true fun and sheer joy of playing Downhill Domination's races is that each course is teeming with alternate pathways. One of my favorite downhill runs has you going through towers, riding down spiral staircases, before you pass through a graveyard, then a series of ancient ruins, all before the final stretch where you blaze through the city streets of a coastal town. They're all also full of character, each feeling an adventure you're taking from beginning to end. The main mountain races are quite lengthy, lasting anywhere between four to six minutes on a good run. The star of the game is the various mountains on stage here.
It's a game that both makes me yearn for a return to this glorious era of gaming and one that I can't help but get frustrated at. Entertainment's (War of the Monsters and Twisted Metal: Black) Downhill Domination shares similarities with is SSX, but instead of shredding down a snow covered mountain with a snowboard, players ride mountain bikes down dangerous mountains and hills. Then the next generation came and coming with it were different extreme sports like inline skating with Aggressive Inline, BMX bike riding, and snowboarding with the SSX series. Thus, a plethora of skateboarding games made their way onto both the original PlayStation and Nintendo 64. In the 32 and 64 bit eras of gaming, extreme sports games were all the rage, and leading the way was one name: Tony Hawk.
