THQ getting physical with MX vs. ATV Reflex

A racing redefinition with revolutionary rhythm racing physics. That alliterative nightmare was brought to you by MX vs. ATV Reflex, THQ's newest racer from Rainbow Studios and just the latest to make us swallow our tongues. Set to peel off the starting blocks this holiday season, the game is currently in development for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PSP and DS.

The series' fourth entry since 2005's MX vs. ATV Unleashed, Reflex will boast real-time terrain deformation and a new "dual-stick" control scheme that "separates man from machine." Additionally, THQ notes that the off-road sequel will introduce a new Rhythm Racing physics engine. But don't be fooled like we were. Sadly, the tech is named for getting players into the "rhythm of a race" rather than any sort of mid-race musical throw down.
