Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX is an extreme sports game for the Sega Dreamcast, developed by Z-Axis and released in 2000 by Acclaim Entertainment alongside PlayStation and PC versions under their Acclaim Max Sports label. As the name indicates, it's sponsored by (and features) the late BMX rider Dave Mirra. It follows in the footsteps of Activision's Tony Hawk's Pro Skater series, but with BMX bikes instead. Like other games of its type, the game sees players control one of a selection of real-life BMX riders through open-ended levels accomplishing various objectives to progress.
