    If the controls are as good as Aqua Moto, Dirt Moto will be a winner! Aqua Moto has some of the best controls you can find in the racing genre, and my guess is that Dirt Moto will handle just as well if not better.

    You should try Aqua Moto lite to get a feel for the controls. They are really very good. AM lite won't give you a good idea of the gameplay, however, since it only includes the easy mode which doesn't do the full version justice.

    4 tracks? That's it? Sorry, got to pass already...that's not nearly enough.

    Not sure how those 4 tracks are going to work out, but if it's half as good as Aqua Moto I'll be sure to get it. I'm so glad I decided to get AM, because the lite wasn't really convincing. (Albie far more! ;) ). Can't wait for some screen shots on this one.

    There are also reverse tracks and a trick park.

    I have always seen reverse tracks as a copout. Seriously, just make 4 more tracks instead of reversing them.

    I'll buy it if the controls are as good as Aqua Moto. The controls don't have to be the exact same, just as good as.

    I loved Aqua Moto, I'm pretty sure I'll like this :)

    Yeah, 4 tracks is disappointing. Hopefully they'll have speedy updates.

    Not four tracks, four environments. It is just like aqua moto racer. Here is a good comparison, let's golf has four golf courses, but has 64 holes. This racer will probably have 20 or more tracks! that is good enough for me (until I beat it all)

    Can't wait! I never liked watersports games, but this sounds cool. Also, what does LRS mean?

    Really can't believe the audacity of this developer. Aqua Moto is an unfinished product, IMO. I bought the game and it's a good product, but what about custom music and a few more tracks. These guys are like Gameloft: release a game, forget about it, then release something else, ad nauseum. Besides that, 2XL Supercross promises 12 bikes and 12 tracks. Tired of buying these damn tech demos.

    I don't know what your expectations are, but Aqua Moto has 18 tracks and also a reverse mode which doubles it to 36 tracks so I'm not sure how this an unfinished product. That's not a tech demo.

    Was there an update I missed? This game has 4 tracks. It has different parts of the environment, but it all looks the same. 36 tracks, my patoot. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the app, but Crash Nitro had more true tracks and that was a launch app.

    If you think it's unfinished, don't buy it. There is nothing misleading about there being 36 tracks across 3 environments both in our review and on the description in iTunes.
