Unlike Evolution’s convoluted mess of a menu system for the campaign, the menus here are nice and slick. The addition of tutorials makes it more user-friendly, and the difficulty curve is a bit more gradual now.

This means that if you loved both Trials games, you’re sure to love the new tracks offered up here. Beyond those changes, Fusion is basically the same Trials experience 360 owners have known for about five years now. You have a little more wiggle room for a rough one and still land well enough to continue on with the trial. It takes a lot longer to change your position mid-flight, although since it’s a weightier object, you don’t need to be quite as degree-perfect with your landings. Instead of being loose with your riding or taking risks hoping you can correct your momentum in mid-air, the ATV makes you think things through more. While there is a nice array of regular bikes, you have to change your mindset with the ATV. The new vehicle mixes things up a bit and does force you to get outside of your comfort zone a bit. The ATV operates with the same kind of precision found on the motorcycles, but it has a lot more weight to it that you really feel with each movement and jump you take. The tricks are easy to execute, and while the stick combo system may sound similar to Skate in theory, Fusion’s tricks are much easier to execute. The left stick moves you and the right stick executes the tricks depending on your position. Before, you could flip, but there wasn’t a trick system per se. The third entry brings with it a new vehicle in the ATV and a formal trick system. The second brought a ton of user-generated content and online multiplayer action. The first console entry kicked everyone’s ass due to its steep learning curve and steep hills. There’s a heavy emphasis on physics, and extensive tutorials have been added to give you the skills need to at least survive, if not excel, while facing some major obstacles.

For series newcomers, the Trials games are basically a time attack version of Excitebike without rivals, but with a time limit and a goal to constantly improve. The Trials games have been critical darlings on consoles since 2009’s Trials HD hit XBLA, and now they’re hitting the next generation with another must-own entry.
