BMX Simulator is one of the better overhead games on the A8. Hit fire as soon as GO is shown to get a fast start, thought being ahead of the computer biker adds to the pressure. You don't need to beat him just finish each race in time. With a bit of practice you can get to race #7. Neat touches where the computer opponent makes mistakes (has a pre-programmed path). Proably missed by people is that you can play as biker #2 instead and the computer controls biker #1 - which has a different path and makes mistakes on different levels. Game also has 2 player head to head. 9/10 www.gwobby.webs.com

Good original game idea - racing your bmx bike around a track against a player, from a birds eye view. Graphics + sound are great, showing what the atari can do. However the addictive/attention curve in this game is far too abrupt.Levels 1-3 are quite easy, then things get a little tough. I never could complete it! Good game though.
