Or at least they have an official Facebook page and some legit looking screenshots. I’m not 100% convinced that my skepticism was unwarranted but things are looking promising. More details to come, apparently.

I'm still not sold on it. you would think that EA would be the ones to make the game not some spanish company.
EA doesn't actually make games, they put their names on them and advertise them.
The way I see it is, IF it's legit, and does decent or sells enough to show there is interest there, it would give bigger names like EA reasons to make their own and get some of that cash. Assuming this is legit though
Mikael: Uh, serious? EA has numerous development studios worldwide. They're obviously a gigantic publisher, but they do definitely still develop games- more than the majority of other studios combined, actually.
If ea cancelled skate 4 they wont make or help endorse a bmx game
yeah because bikes are skateboards
I wouldn't argue with guy, he looks like he knows what he's talking about. vvvvvv
ea doesnt want to be appart of it because the low sales of previuos bmx games.ex) matt hoffman pro bmx 2. theyll will see the hype this causes and the demands for it to be similar gameplay to the skate series. got strong hopes it turns out amazing.
2 pegs? c'mon son
2 pegs? c'mon son
was gonna post this same thing

Small bars come on son lol
If you go to the faebook page they have a post explaining that you can customize your bike almost any way you want as well as swapping parts.
left side drive c,mon son.
2 piece bars? Come on son.
anodised parts, come on kids, they look shite.
Better be real, better be good.Better not run out of money before it's completed.

just because its bein developed by a spanish company doesn't mean ea cant pick it up and publish it dicknose.
they can if they buy rights to it
that is what im sayin
If it's not being made by EA INC./ SPORTS , then it's not going to turn out no where near good at all. Without a big time company workin on this game the graphics,details or any big support will just go down the drain. A BMX has to at least rank close or better to SKATE 1,2, and 3. But who knows….
talking out the side of your neck
I am not convinced beause if someone was to actually make this I'm sure they would of contacted the come up, vital and all the other mainstream bmx sites about this personally to confirm or get involved rather than a facebook page to get the word out.
I'm not sold either. I just don't think there's enough money in it. BMX just doesn't sell like skating does.
this looks like an iOS game.
For now its only a 3d model rendered and a count down timer.
Where are the screen shots ?
Its a bigger step towards actually getting a BMX game created than any of the skeptics and naysayers have done. STFU
Prediction: They will ask for money to help develop the game a fuck over a lot of people.
Just go to the Web site, guys. You think thecomeup.com is ran by fucking journalists?

It's being developed using the Unity engine, and it's a multiplatform console/pc release. It will be a downloadable game, and it'll rival indie Unreal-based sports games, graphically speaking. Who knows how it will play, but the fact that they're choosing street locales rather than DEW TOUR EXTREME RED BULL DOUBLE BASS DRUM GUITAR SOLO setups is somewhat promising.
looks like some high school kids discovered unity and now they want to make a game. just rendering static 3d model is the easiest part, but what is really important in such game is character movement and physics, which is the hardest thing to do. until I see some video I will just call it fake.
Realistic physics? Why not make it actually realistic, can't play the game til 2pm (when you wake up), first level is a foot tall ledge and a curb cut you spend 6 hours a day sitting at and drinking/smoking, then you drive to a spot 30 mins away, roll up to it for a bit, try and film a trick, maybe pull it, grab a King Cobra tall can on the way home, then go talk shit in the TCU comments. I call it "BMX Life." Maybe Rockstar will buy the rights from me.
Tunnel jam level? I'm in.
Honestly though I don't really mind if some Indie company takes a stab at it because this way (Hopefully) there will be people working on the team that will have some BMX background and actually care what the tricks look like. Making the whips and 3's look good and having grinds function properly. Unlike dave mirra 2's feeble grinds that didn't put your front tire on the ledge. Either way I'm psyched.
what is the game called
not sold yet pretty sure we saw some gameplay out of that fake ea game a while back guess we shall see … got to love the drama tho.
I think it is real and has been getting developed over some sort of time, if it has levels as old as the tunnel jam etc in it. Adam
This better be on ps2
nes
That player better not be goofy footed I swear to god
They'd better give the option of four piece bars as well.
I hope you're able to cover your bike rider in tattoos.hands, throat, the whole nine yards. It won't look like me if not haha
dude this shit has been going on allday. WE JUST WANT A LEGIT GAME. who gives a shit if its EA or even activision. just rep bmx and its art the way it deserves to be, if Skate can get as detailed and dialed as it is , then I'm sure a game surrounding the lifestyle of a bmxer can be too.
It's about time to get a video game for Made for us Riders It's going to be sick hopefully
Nice 22-16 gearing too.
Probably going to be an arcade game, like Trials.
so what
I didn't say it was a bad thing..
Last post on their official Facebook page says that they need our help to make this project grow. Then next step is a kickstarter fund to ear some money I guess. So, it starts to make me feel a bit disappointed.
Is rob Dyrdek at?
Where's rob Dyrdek at?
"if this post reaches over than 150 likes in one hour, then we will post a game screenshot."
fuck off
RIP my keyboard.
they can beat the dave mirra 2 physics easily, the question is if you can combine all moves like in dave mirra, that was really one of the best things in dave mirra, oh and and the level editor. We should be glad that this guys picked up the challenge, dave mirra 2 was released 12 years ago, just think what changed in game engines since then, this game is more than welcome.
sounds like they want to get hype and then make a kickstarter to really finish the game. hope it's good.
Baby tires? C'mon son!
hopefully the buttons are the same as dave mirra bmx 2 thatd be tits.. id prolly still remember them haha down O was barspin.
That looks like the Nike tunnel in petersfield.
