TG Motocross 3
TG Motocross 3 looks like an Excitebike clone. It's not. While it borrows from Excitebike's forward/backward leaning mechanics, it employs a far more sophisticated physics simulation. And it's not a straight-up race. Instead, you'll find yourself painstakingly using momentum and balance to work your way over a series of canyons. Get enough air and you can even break out some daredevil freestyle moves.

You'll notice right away how good TG Motocross looks for a flash game. It's loaded with subtle details, like the bike's working suspension and the individual spokes on each wheel. You'll also notice right away that there's no sound, which is disappointing at first. Once the game has its hooks in you, you probably won't miss it. And you could always simulate the sound effects yourself: "Rinnnnnnn-ninn-ninn-ninn-ninn-niiii....scrunch."
If you're looking for some faster, more forgiving tracks, check out TG Motocross 2. The original TG Motocross is also worth a look.
We don't know who submitted TG Motocross for an Act Casual pick, as they apparently chose to remain anonymous. Whoever you are, thanks! As always, if you'd like to suggest a game go ahead and email us at contact@gamerswithjobs.com.

Those faceplants are very satisfying. Good find!

It's fun, but ... I need sound like some people need graphics.
I've visited Teagames for a couple of years now, and the one game that kept me coming back was Funky Truck 4X4. The monkey climbing game is a good time consumer as well.

Looks cool, I'll have to play this some more when I have some free time.

Cool game, but the dude is kind of a woosie. I may be a TG Motocross 2 kind of guy.

I got to stage 2. My guy keeps faceplanting. Poor bastard.

Ah.. this looks simular to one of my favourite 8-bit titles: Kickstart (both 1 and 2).. good times indeed!

I was just about to mention a similar game that I played on my C64 when I was a little kid, but eldcu beat me to it. I had forgotten the name of that game though.
Kickstart was great.
Well is not that I wanted to remain anonymous, at least not consciously. And even if it can be suggested by my nickname it really has another meaning.
Anyway, this is my favorite casual game. Moreover, the first TG game is the one I play more. I miss a track editor and I ask them for one, but they seem to prefer making new versions...
Fun game, but man do I suck... I got to stage 2, but I think that's as far as my talents will allow.

The first two I beat with little difficulty.
This one? Suck City at Stage 2.
Yet even then we ran like the wind,
whilst our laughter echoed under cerulean skies...
