This is done by an in-game meter which displays the closest friend to the player's time which adjusts based on whether the player is leading or trailing the friend's course time. When connected to Xbox Live, the player can view their performance in relation to players in their friends list. Players earn medals based on their completion time, number of faults, and in the case of skill games, other specialized criteria. These include things such as riding inside or on top of a large spherical cage, achieving as many flips as possible within a set time limit, or towing a trailer with two large bombs as far as possible while keeping them from exploding by impact. Twelve skill games can also be unlocked which place the player in different challenges. Tournament mode sees the player attempt to complete a number of courses in sequence, trying to achieve a fast overall time with minimal faults. There are a total of thirty-five courses in the game, and players can replay completed courses to attempt a faster time. The game has a variety of courses in a range of difficulties from beginner to extreme. Players can also control the bike's pitch at slow speeds or while in the air. The game uses 3D graphics, but is played on a 2D plane, so the rider can only move forwards and backwards. The objective is to complete the course as fast as possible and with as few crashes, known in the game as faults, as possible. In Trials HD the player controls a rider on a physics-based motorcycle from the start of the level to the end while navigating a number of obstacles. In Trials HD players must manipulate the rider and motorcycle to traverse obstacles and objects found throughout each level.
