I was having the thrill ride of my life up until this point and am proud to say that I completed all races in all of the first five chapters with Gold medals and NO RESETS, but in these later levels you are begging the video game gods to simply let you reach the finish line for a bronze. As you move into the final third of the game Trials Fusion loses any semblance of a racing game and reveals its true nature as a ledge-jumping platform game crippled by crazy physics and unpredictable controls. The remaining three events Skill Showcase, ExpertвЂ™s Club, and MasterвЂ™s Gauntlet arenвЂ™t fit for human consumption or at least humans with any normal tolerance for repetitious and annoying gameplay. For the most part the difficulty ramp is smooth for 64% of the game up to and including Rainforest Rumble, and then you hit a brick wall.

Each event series marks a significantly more challenging experience as you move from beginner to easy and then medium and hard events. You then work your way through each race trying to get to the finish line in the shortest amount of time with the fewest resets.

Most chapters begin with a short pass/fail training mission that teaches you a few new skills that will be required to complete the next set of races. Trials Fusion is divided into eight events or chapters, each with a dozen or so races taking placed within an environmentally themed location such as the desert, mountains, swamp, city, etc. How about the rest of the game? Developer RedLynx had a solid foundation on which to build, but instead of truly evolving the franchise to new heights they seemed more content to make minor improvements and tweaks to the established formula while keeping the frustration factor at an all-time high.

So those are the PC-specific issues with the game and any and all comparison I will be making to the PS4 вЂ“ the only console version that could possibly compete with the PC. The same can be said for ghost data, which is really only recording command inputs and location data.

Data is data and I simply donвЂ™t understand why the raw data created in a PS4 canвЂ™t be used to recreate tracks on the PC using system-specific assets. Ghost data, leaderboards, and user-created tracks remain specific to the system they were created on, so while the PS4 version of Trials Fusion has over 3,000 user-created tracks, the PC has just broken the 500 mark as of this review.

While all versions of Trials Fusion co-exist within the Uplay universe they sadly donвЂ™t take advantage of having a shared hub. Not once in over 30 hours (ten of which were being streamed to Twitch) of PS4 play did I experience this phenomenon. These PC hiccups seemed to increase when streaming the game to Twitch using Shadowplay. It seems the tracks are streaming from the hard drive as you race them, so make sure you have this game installed on a fast defragmented drive or better yet a fast SSD for best results. The one thing I did notice happening on the PC version were these periodic hiccups where the game would momentarily stick or freeze for a half a second. Both suffer from some texture pop-in, most noticeably if you restart a race repeatedly, but again, the textures usually all appear before the pre-race countdown expires.

Both run at a sharp 1080p resolution at a locked 60fps. The PC version obviously offers gamers a much larger selection of graphical tweaks in the settings, but even with everything set to their maximum settings the game looks no better than the PS4 version. As mentioned in the next-gen console review, the PS4 was already looking and playing pretty much like a PC gold standard version of the game, so I was admittedly curious to see if and how much better Trials Fusion could be on a high-end PC. Last week we reviewed Trials Fusion on the PlayStation 4 and now we are back to check out the game on the PC.
