Good ideas, poor execution.

Trials of the Blood Dragon comes off as a poor cash-in of Far Cry: Blood Dragon that some how got mixed in with a mediocre Trials game that was too ambitious for its own good. I do have some positives about the game, the music is great, the colorful art design is fantastic, there is some good humor throughout, and there were some great ideas in the game. Here are the negatives, the level design is interesting some of the time, however, that said, most of the time there are points in some levels that you just crash for no apparent reason. The platforming levels in this game are some of the worst I have ever played in a video game. The jumps are too floaty, the response time of any action feels broken, the shooting sucks, and the obsticals they want you to be able to manuver are pretty much imposible with the way the engine handles movement. Another huge issue is the shooting and grapling hook nonsense while driving, its such a huge distraction that ruins the whole thing for me.
