Test Chamber – Trials Evolution

If you had a chance to check out Dan Ryckert's review of Trials Evolution, it's apparent he had a great time with the game. As he played through it in the conference room next to my office, I heard a steady stream of cursing, laughing, and inhuman squawking and grunting. Dan joined me for a tour of the game's more creative levels and modes in this week's edition of Test Chamber. We even asked him to show us an Extreme-level challenge. While he doesn't play along early on in this video, he eventually caves, and tries to tackle one of these ludicrous challenges. Hilarity and crazy grunting ensue.

UPDATE: Be sure to check out the soundboard Jason made of all the noises Dan made during this episode.

  • Nice. Actually thinking about getting this.
    Dan's Motorcycle sounds are amazing
  • I was listening to a friend play this game and it was pretty hilarious. Can't wait to hear whatever noises Dan makes while trying to traverse the courses. ^_^

  • This might make it onto my play list...

  • hmm i just might get this

  • So it's going to be rotating editors like replay, is that right?

  • Why did this have to be posted while I'm at the dentist?

  • Not sure about getting this. Seems like more of the same and competative multiplayer does not fit the spirit of trials. Its called *** trials for a reason :P
  • So far I have beaten all but three of the extreme tracks, all with silver medal or above. Also Dan having almost all bronze medals in hard tracks saddens me, they really are not very difficult. To Dan, on Dark City Run, the spot where it tells you to drop down onto the lamp, do not immediately continue driving, let the bike settle onto the surface so you can gain more speed for the jump instead of just bouncing like five feet and falling.

    EDIT: While I was watching Dan do Dark City Run and talk about people getting gold medals on extreme tracks, a friend of mine was going for platinum on Dark City Run lol.
  • This was a great video! I can see myself, loosing my cool a few times as well. I have to give it to Dan...he's got a lot of patience. Considering some of the hard levels he kept retrying. Picking this game up this weekend for sure.
  • This would be great to have for the live stream!

  • Bill Cosby puts his stamp of approval on this. Dan's grunts and non-words were amazing.
  • Damn some of those challenges look tough. All I want to know is if Dan eventually beat it and if his sound effects helped at all.
  • Ya know this game looks fun and all but there are about 20 free games just like this out on addictinggames and other online game sites. This looks fun but 15 bucks just seems like a lot for a polished version of a free game.

  • Wow. I was really hoping for a finish to the extreme level. Too bad.

  • As awesome as it looks, I don't know if I'll get this. If the first Trials is any indication, it will lead to nothing but frustration.

  • YES. I am looking forward to picking this up this weekend. I absolutely loved the first Trials. I loved it so much that I made it a mission to gold medal every course in the game. Things were going well, but I can only get silver on the last few!
  • Downloading this tonight. Loved the first one.

  • I don't know if this is the intended way it is supposed to be done, but I was stuck on the same part that Dan was trying over and over at the end also and the way I got past it was by hitting the ramp and having my front tire land right in the gap of the two pallets leading up the side of the sign. As soon as my tire hit that spot, I gave the bike some gas, leaned forward and did a front flip. My front tire landed far enough up the sign that I was able to lean back and wheelie my bike up the rest of the way. Then I just evened myself out while dropping down the other side.

  • Haha havent laughed this hard in awhile !

  • This is absolutely worth buying.
