BMX XXX is a controversial 2002 video game published by Acclaim Entertainment for the Xbox, GameCube, and PlayStation 2. It was developed by Z-Axis. It is a BMX game speckled with crude humor and nudity. The game allows the player to create riders as topless women in underwear bottoms and "unlock" full motion video clips of strippers in action. Consequently, BMX XXX was denied classification in Australia. While the game is available fully uncensored on the GameCube and the Xbox, the US PlayStation 2 version has no topless riders and the stripper footage is censored with small BMX XXX logos over the nipples. Despite this, the reception by the public was luke-warm.
[edit] Relationship to Dave Mirra
BMX XXX builds on the earlier work done by Z-Axis on Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX. The development title was Dave Mirra BMX XXX, and although Dave Mirra refused to endorse the product and obtained legal documents to the effect that his name would not be used, it was initially hyped and offered to the press with his name attached. It was only after direct legal action that he succeeded in preventing the use of his name on the product.
