If you think this all sounds a bit 'futuristic sport', then you'd be right to worry, as the only decent game ever to carry that label was Speedball II on the Amiga. Trickstylehas its base firmly rooted in boarding though, and the future tag is little more than an excuse to have a gravity-defying powerboard, and to throw in some fancy locations.
Along with a huge velodrome, these will be a Future London, Neo Manhattan and an Aerial Tokyo, the bulk of the city having been swamped due to global warming. Each city will be recognisable, yet extremely modified, for instance, St Paul's Cathedral will appear largely unaltered, albeit dwarfed by an array of shiny glass carbuncles.
Races take place through the cities, with the major landmarks connected via a unique nodal system, enabling you to plot your own course. The stunts are predictably elaborate, although the designers are keen to stress that they're not just for show, and as well as earning bonuses some are actually a prerequisite for winning a race. Trickstylc will be out in September, so that gives you just enough time to grow an elaborate chin-glove, adopt some moronic-slang and get blunted.
Just when you thought it was safe to venture into your local video game retailer and see shelves devoid of futuristic gen-x hoverboard racers, TrickStyle comes along.
Luckily, the game has two things going for it: Thus far it's a lot of fun to play, and second it's on the Dreamcast--so it looks better than similar games on other systems. The premise is what you'd expect from a hipster game though: World War III comes and goes, after which a time of peace falls over the land--this creates a Utopia of sorts. Since only a handful of people actually need to work, a group of extremely bored and inventive urban youths decide to do something nutty: Surf through the cities of the world London, New York and Tokyo on gravity-defying hoverboards, racing and performing stunts.
These people are called Urban Surfers. The graphics are the main feature of TrickStyle that stand out from the get-go. Even when compared to other Dreamcast titles, it's something special. It has all kinds of graphical effects. And thankfully the feel of the game matches its looks. Control is tight, races make sense and the overall progression of the game and how it's organized feels right.
But it's not quite complete, so things may very well change. The game works like most other racers: Finish first place on a particular stage, and you can move onto the next one. Now race against that area's boss. Then the next area opens up and more courses are available, and so on and so forth. Each course has a number of hidden shortcuts and alternate routes for maximum replayability. And of course you can perform tricks in each level for points--but in this version it was more for show than anything else.
There are also two-to four-player race modes--although there is no online support planned. In addition to everything else, TrickStyle features a number of challenges that take place in the game's hub area. These challenges consist of object collection, rail-sliding and other tasks. Complete one and you get a new trick in your arsenal. And finally, by playing the TrickStyle VMU mini-games, you'll get access to hoverboard upgrades in the actual game. The first thing you'll notice about TrickStyle is its incredible graphics.
The game is filled with tons of detailed polygon models and textures, and all kinds of fancy effects. It really is a great example of what the Dreamcast is capable of. Next, you'll notice the game runs at a continuous 30 fps. Networking Software.
