Nail'd A World Of Dangerous Speed

Courses are also spiced up by the fact that you can steer your bike up, down, left, and right while you're in midair. This doesn't sound like much, but the way that this functionality is merged with the tracks' design and the overall sense of speed amplifies the thrills to gravity defying proportions. Many of the jumps in the game require some sort of mid-air adjustment. Choosing where to go is often a leap into the unknown and part of the fun. Sometimes you have to decide pretty early on whether you're going to pull up for more air or dive down to avoid getting smacked in the face with a tree. Other times there are multiple routes around a level to choose from, and the game gives you the luxury of deciding while you're flying several stories up in the air. Nail'd's claustrophobic, fish eye-like camera complements the onscreen adrenaline rush, and even though it can leave you blind occasionally, there are enough environmental clues to steer you in the right direction â€" even when you're turning almost 180 degrees in midair. http://naildbiter.com/BXDkn
