While the MX Vs ATV franchise really elevated the graphics and realism of dirt bike video games throughout 2000s, Motocross Madness, was at the first game that truly felt “real” in terms of graphics, rider posture, being able to do real whips, and overall feel of game play. He shows off the different tracks and riding terrain in MCM1. That, in and of itself, was a big win in the genre of dirt bike video games.Ī look at Motocross Madness 1 from 1998 courtesy of Cordi on YouTube. The 125s and 250s sounded exactly how they should sound, as did the four-strokes. The video game was one the first of its kind where the sounds of the dirt bikes were accurate. In terms of video games, Motocross Madness truly changed my perspective on how realistic a dirt bike video game could be. However, enter the forgotten gem of 1998: Motocross Madness for PC. When we think about dirt bike video games of the 1990s, we think of gems like ExciteBike, Jeremy McGrath Supercross ’98, Championship Motocross Ricky Carmichael, and one of my personal favorites, Supercross Circuit which was truly the first of its kind in looking and feeling real.

Ten years earlier, Red Bull, who is a damn energy drink company, sent a man into the stratosphere so that he could then free fall back down to Earth while the aforementioned energy drink company streamed the entire thing across the globe… Live.

While I search for answers, let’s sit back and read another installment of Forgotten Gems, where I write about rad pieces of film, video games, and more from the 19990s and early 2000s and blatantly misremember how cool shit actually was back then and you disagree with me. To be fair, I also do not have the elusive vurbmoto Hipster beanie, or return calls from the found/CEO/owner So, perhaps, I don’t actually work here and this entire article is superfluous? Who am I even writing for right now? You? Me? Nobody? Is anybody out there? Why do I say that? Because it hasn’t been listed as feature article in our “Features” drop down menu.

However, it’s as if the rest of the vurbmoto staff assumed I would never write this article again.

I’ve only written one of these articles, which you can read here.
