SX Superstar is full of high flying jumps, insane stunts, fast dirt bikes, tracks from around the world, and hot chicks. How could this winning combination go wrong? You can either play the game and find out, or save yourself the torture and listen to what I have to say.
First off, there is little to do in this game. A quick and dirty Arcade mode is offered, which allows you to pick one of many international pro riders and race on any track offered. Tracks come in a few different flavors, including a regular race-to-the-end style track, a stunt track, and another race-to-the-end track that has been disguised with disorienting checkpoint placements.
A more in depth, Championship mode is also offered, where you get to take a new racer and compete in different challenges for fortune and fame. You actually start out in a shoddy apartment in the wrong side of town with the trashiest girlfriend around, a superficial setting which will double as your home in the game. Your fax and phone will have messages from your agent and love interests in an attempt to add humor to a not-so-funny game.
Doing well in venues will get you money and a little attention, possibly resulting in sponsorship. The more money you get, the better bike you can purchase. The better bike you've got, the better you can do in races. And so on. This deathly boring cycle is alleviated only by the acquisition of newer and hotter girlfriends. Ogling over new babes also becomes tiring after about the second or third one (experiences may differ), leaving you with a sense of emptiness and shame at the end of it all.
