NES, Excitebike and the right path

Mr 100% -- Kieren from Queensland, Bloody Bill, lent us a few minutes of his time, we were eager to talk to him since he is the first person ever to finish “Mad Skills Motocross“. In addition to this he has conducted one of the most impressive gaming sessions we have seen in many months. Check the vid below, the man is a SUPERSTAR!

Tell us Kieren -- how did you, as the first person ever, manage to finish Mad Skills Motocross?

I grew up playing quite a few motorbike games such as Excitebike which I still own on 8bit NES.I am not one to give up on something once I start it. If I am ever unable to do something I have set out to do, I sleep on it and I will generally succeed within a short time of starting it back up afterwards.

How long did it take you?

I have been playing Mad Skills Motocross on and off since I got it in September 2009. I tried the Demo first and I loved it so I bought the full version.
Recently I have been playing most afternoons after I get home from work.

Did you have problems with any particular track, which one was toughest to beat?

The hardest track I believe is based on what you aim to achieve, whether it be the best possible time or just beating the computer player in career mode. I didn’t have that much trouble with career mode at all as I find games like this come natural to me.

Alright, so who are you,where do you live and what do you do?

I am 22 next month.I am from Queensland, Australia. I am a desktop support officer, I enjoy my job and the people I work with.

What improvements or new features would you like to see in Mad Skills over the next few months?

Many people have made excellent suggestions to the game on the forums. I believe many of these are great ideas but everyone wants the multiplayer and leaderboards!

Finally, how can I bump my Mad Skills to your level?

Three tips that I would like to share with other players are; Learn the best path in a track, become adept at controlling the bike from all landing approaches and last, persistence. If you think you make a good time on a track, try and beat it, chances are someone else will.

Alright, any thing we haven`t covered or something else you`d like to share?

For those of you who still need the 30 stars in one race to reach 100% Career, Turbo Nitro 2 is where I got it. Get the wheelie and stoppie down straight up, then get your double backflips in where ever you can. (Think outside the box here) the front flips are easily done in the few bigger jumps in the middle of the track, remaining double backflips come at the end and the big air jump, use your nitro and jump over the finish.


From what I`ve understood Kieren will beat Tobias once he get a chance -- I can not wait for the Mad Skills multiplayer to be done

jippikajej Kieren and a happy, Swedish, afternoon to you all!
