Trials HD vs Split/Second

Trials HD is a full-featured, physics-based motorcycle racing game featuring over 50 tracks across two distinct game modes. Race Mode challenges players to master balance, skill, and control while navigating complex indoor obstacle courses. In addition to racing, the game includes a Skill Mode where extreme obstacles lead to spectacular crashes and explosions. Players guide a trial motorcycle with exaggerated physics through various hazards to successfully reach each stage's finish line.

Split/Second is an intense action racing game set within a reality television show where competitors vie to be the first to the finish line in a made-for-TV city set rigged to blow. Players don't just collide with other vehicles to knock them from the track, but can also trigger devastating events that drastically alter the dynamics of the race. Players must use pinpoint timing to obliterate huge structures and towering TV set pieces to tactically alter the track or create entirely new routes with the ultimate goal of becoming the season champion.
