If you are anything like me then you probably spent many hours sitting around playing all the Tony Hawk games and Dave Mirra BMX. It gives you a chance to do things that are not only impossible in real life, but in many cases impossible for you to even attempt. Even though they were ridiculously fun you know as much as I do that half the times you ‘stuck’ a landing you should have actually been face first in the ground.

Sadly though I haven’t seen many games like those classics floating around the Android sphere. At least not without an emulator. I sincerely hope they with all the new tech and high-end graphic they can produce will bring something similar to the market in the future. Until We see some official Tony Hawk, you can get some motorcycle action up and running.

Deemedya m.s. ltd. has recently released Trial Xtreme 2 HD to the Android market as well as the AppStore if you are into that sort of thing. The latest installment has some much improved graphics and physics compared to the previous release. There are now 32 new levels across 5 challenging environments. Rather than having some cumbersome on-screen controls you take charge of your rider via tilt controls that have also been improved. The bike and rider physics have been built on the NVIDIA® PhysX® engine, which triggers your device to produce various vibrating effects to help you feel the bumps, jumps and crashes.

Application: Trial Xtreme 2
Developer: Deemedya m.s. ltd.
Cost: $1.99
