MX vs ATV Alive
The last MX vs ATV game did pretty well so it's natural that we get another MX vx ATV game this year. MX vs ATV Alive is the next game in the series and it brings on better graphics, better terrain deformation, and now it seems the big feature will be the jockeying of position using the handlebars. Also, it sounds like THQ's going to really push the content via DLC with this one. Look for the game in May of 2011 and check out screenshots as well as a teaser below.
AGOURA HILLS, Calif. January 19, 2011 -- THQ Inc.

Featuring an enhanced physics engine and the most authentic motocross racing experience to date, MX vs. ATV Alive will be supported by an unprecedented digital content distribution strategy upon its scheduled launch in May 2011.
