THQ takes off-road next-gen

Shows MX vs. ATV Untamed.

THQ has announced plans to roll up its sleeves and get downright filthy with a new MX vs. ATV game for PS3, Xbox 360, Wii and DS.

The biggest new feature will be its fancy new Rhythm Racing physics engine, which will apparently be put to full potential in the new Endurocross mode - an indoor race littered with numerous objects like logs, rocks, mud-pits, and more.

THQ also gave us the customary promise to make full use of the graphical grunt and individual controls of the machines, as well as make as much of it compatible with online play as possible.

All four games are expected in January 2008, with PS2 and PSP versions to follow. More information should pop-up at E3 this week.
