In the case of Red Bull X-Fighters, you would be completely right in assuming that. The game only has one mode - the game itself. So what do you do. Drive a motorbike, pretty much. You have to ride, and do tricks whilst jumping over big mounds of earth. It sounds much more impressive than it is, let me tell you. In fact, you don't control the bike at all. The game controls it itself. What you actually do is hit button combos whilst the rider is in the air in order to do a trick (like a QTE, except worse). Every trick is scored on its impressiveness, and your score at the end of the round is used to determine how you did - and you get a bronze silver or gold graphic on the screen to congratulate you. Fantastic. According to the screen twizzling infront of me now, "Trophies unlock more events" and "you will be awarded with cool outfits." Lovely.
In fairness there are a lot of different events here. It's just that they are all just as boring and annoying as the last. All you ever do is hit button combinations and make sure your driver survives the landing.
Compared with what some of the other Minis offer, you really do not get much value for money with this game. I was bored after 2 events. Would i recommend it? No, i don't think so. Unless you enjoy sitting and hitting buttons that appear on the screen. Really, if you have the money to buy this, you're better off going for one of the other Minis, which offers much better value, and much more fun.
