Motocross Madness

Motocross Madness is the first motocross racing video game series in the Madness series. It is developed by Rainbow Studios and published by Microsoft.

Gameplay
The game is known for its realism, including terrain, audio, and "bone-chilling" motorcycle wrecks. If the player is in Stunt mode, goes out of bounds, and gets on a large cliff, an "invisible slingshot" will cause the player and the bike fly across while a funny sound plays until both objects will hit the ground. The "invisible slingshot" effect was also used in the game ATV Offroad Fury, also created by Rainbow Studios.

These are all the events that take place in Motocross Madness:

Sales
In the United States, Motocross Madness sold 35,922 copies during 1998. These sales accounted for $1.54 million in revenue that year.

Critical reviews
Motocross Madness won Computer Games Strategy Plus's 1998 "Racing Game of the Year" award. The editors hailed it as "perhaps the best motorcycle racing game of all time." PC Gamer US also named Motocross Madness the best racing game of 1998.
