Yep, those video cards listed are newer than mine (2 yrs old), so that _is_ my issue : )

There's some Monster Jam video game stuff on YouTube

Sorry to drift off the topic again, but

Does anyone know if there is a certain point total you have to have to unlock the last four trucks (except Iron Outlaw)? I still have to unlock Pastrana 199, Brutus, Dalmation and GD 25th, and it seems like i would have unlocked those by now. Or, do they come with winning certain events in championship? I have all the videos, but only one trophy, thats whats making me wonder

You have to finish first in all of the events in an event series to unlock trophies and the extra trucks. So for the southern series you have to finish first in all five of the outdoor circuits, the indoor circuit, the indoor drag racing, and both freestyles.

How do you unlock videos, I have only one unlocked?!

Destroyerfan · Post by **Destroyerfan** » Thu Dec 20, 2007 2:19 pm

ok, thanks. I got all of the videos from points totals. Here's a handy trick i found for getting extra points: after you finish first in all of the outdoor events, you can go back and basically go on a rampage. you can do donuts, get all the air time you want and smash everything up for as long as you want (hitting the dirt ramps backwards gets alot of airtime points btw). It is basically a freestyle with no time limit. It doesn't matter how long you are out there as long as you finish the laps. This doesn't work on the eliminators though, because as soon as the other trucks cross the finish after one lap you are done. That is how i unlocked all of the videos, and i also unlocked Captain's Curse and Avenger in two back to back events, that is also how i got my first 200,000+ point total.

Yeah that's what I did. Edit: Answered own question!

Thanks for the info, I will just keep playing around with it.

Destroyerfan · Post by **Destroyerfan** » Thu Dec 20, 2007 4:40 pm

no problem. thank you too, i unlocked 3 of the 4 trucks, just trying for that pesky GD 25th now.

I own Monster Jam for the 360 and have unlocked everything.

Here's how to beat the World Finals on Pro...

This seems to be the only event that people are having trouble with in this game.
Freestyle at Vegas is all about the different amount of stunts you can do. I finished the game on Pro difficulty in about 4 hours and the Vegas FS was the only one that gave me any trouble.

Basically, do a huge combo. Hit the rail boxes to the left of your starting position, then hit the bus stack in front of it. Roll slowly over it, getting all the points you can. Turn around, and drive slowly over the crush cars that are a part of the race course. Then, hit the other lane of crush cars. Roll slowly over the other Bus Stack, crushing everything. Then, hit the mega ramp in the middle as fast as you can, and try and do a slap wheelie into the breakable house and that stuff. After smashing everything there, do a quick donut.

Now, finish the run by hitting everything that you haven't hit.

Your plan is exactly like mine on the world vegas pro level freestyle. I can get 15/15 stunt score easily everytime but for some reason I can only get either a 7 or an 8 out of 10 for stunt variation. I eventually gave up after getting 38's like ten times in a row. I blame my pc for sucking!

I reviewed Monster Jam on the 360 on Christmas Day.

..... Update .....

My video card crashed on me during the week, so I had to do some quick research online at TigerDirect.com and see what was up.

I like the GeForce series so I checked those out, and the one that looked the best for my needs was the 8800GT, so that's what I got.
It's a solid performer, and wasn't too hard on the pocketbook.

Now Monster Jam starts up and plays perfectly. Got the resolution cranked way up and it's like a stroll in the park for the video card lol
Here's some screenies.

The graphics quality on this game are really amazing.
And they now have a patch to allow controller/wheels.

I really hate that you have to stop during the freestyle.

hey, are there cheats?
oh, and what key is 4-wheel steering for computer. trying to win a freestyle event without donuts is hard. :oops:

Destroyerfan · Post by **Destroyerfan** » Sat Apr 19, 2008 10:43 am

Left shift works for me for rear steering, i went a long time without it also and it only works when you have the front wheels turned.
