BootHammer - "Thanks to Reverb Games for securing an interview with the talented devs behind the rambunctious racer Jeremy McGrath’s Offroad. I”d also like extend my appreciation to 2XL Games for taking the time to answer these questions. Today we are speaking with Robb Rinard who is the Creative Director at 2XL Games."
Jeremy McGrath is best known for his motocross riding, so it comes as a surprise that his latest off-road racing game features no bikes at all. Instead, Jeremy McGrath's Offroad features a collection of rally cars, buggies and trucks to fling over jumps and tear up the desert.
Nerdly - Based on seven-time AMA Supercross champ Jeremy McGrath’s latest passion: four-wheel offroad truck racing, Jeremy McGrath’s Offroad, from developers 2XL Games – who are well-known for racing games like Baja: Edge of Control and 2XL ATV Offroad 2009 and utilises the same proprietary XLR8R engine to create the arcade racing action in 60fps full 1080p HD. Featuring five vehicle classes, six race tracks, online multiplayer for up to eight players, and a career mode that sees you take on 23 courses of off-road action, Jeremy McGrath’s Offroad sounds like a race gamer dream but in practise it turned out to be a lot less so…
Jeremy McGrath's Offroad is the latest game under Jeremy's name, published by Reverb Publishing and developed by 2XL Games. A first for McGrath's outside of Motorcross, can it live up to the demands of racing gamers?
A Vita version could be interesting.
