📍 Event : Building track contest
The 3×3 Challenge was a competition for Trials HD track creators, where participants were tasked with building a custom track confined within a 3×3 cube of wall blocks. The event ran from May 27, 2010, to June 30, 2010, and was also known as Winner’s Cycle – Trials HD Competition #4.
Participants needed a copy of Trials HD for Xbox Live Arcade and a way to record their gameplay, whether via capture card, camera, or even a mobile phone. The focus was on the creativity and skill in track design, not video quality.
Instructions :
Players had to create a track within the 3×3 cube, record a video of their run, and upload it to YouTube using the naming convention :
- 3×3-[gamertag]-01 (e.g., 3×3-KatamariUK-01)
They then had to notify the judges on Xbox Live, naming their track and its purpose. The judges were: KatamariUK, Euphoric Fusion, Mad MIKE NL, and raistlin2076.
The deadline for submissions was 13:00 GMT, June 30, 2010.
