History
Bike or Die! has had several major updates since it was first released on July 12, 2004. The 1.4 update, released in October 2006, included several new features such as the updraft and ghost bike. The 2.0 update, though while optional to continue playing, contained many new 3D effects and upgraded graphics.
The Hall of Fame competitions started with only twenty-five levels, which were built into Bike or Die!. After people began to redistribute their levels on the internet, levels by players slowly began to be added to the Hall of Fame, starting in September 2004. By March 2005, several hundred levels were available, so instead of using levelpacks made by a single person, compilation packs with levels made by several designers became a standard. However, this trend was not entirely true, as the thirteenth levelpack, BikeForce was primarily created by the user PiNerd.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“Boys forget what their country means by just reading “the land of the free” in history books. Then they get to be men, they forget even more. Liberty’s too precious a thing to be buried in books.”
—Sidney Buchman (1902–1975)
“The history of a soldier’s wound beguiles the pain of it.”
—Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
“The History of the world is not the theatre of happiness. Periods of happiness are blank pages in it, for they are periods of harmony—periods when the antithesis is in abeyance.”
—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
