Product Description

Product Description

A luscious island paradise might seem suitable for a relaxing holiday, but it also makes an ideal venue for off-road racing. The follow-up to MotorStorm trades the desert for golden beaches and verdant jungles that are as dangerous as they are beautiful.

The basic setup of Motor Storm - Pacific Rift is familiar: 16 different drivers behind the wheel of vehicles ranging from monster trucks to speedy motorbikes. Race courses are only loosely laid out, and its completely up to you to pick the best route for your vehicle.

Take the easy route, and you risk getting shunted off a cliff by your rivals. Or you could risk everything on a more dangerous shortcut. Some may be disappointed that this isnt much more than a change of scenery from the first game, but when it looks this good, thats not much of a problem.

  • Paradise found: The game offers some of the best graphics on the PS3 with amazing attention to detail, huge courses, and a fully destructible environment.
  • Track listing: 16 new courses (twice as many as the original) range from beaches to jungle with rivers, lakes, and even hot lava acting as obstacles.
  • Take your pick: Choose from eight types of vehicles, from motorbikes and ATVs to buggies, rally cars, and monster trucks--all of which can be used in the same race.
  • Racebook: 16 player online multiplayer features a fully integrated Web service for file sharing and more.
  • Split the difference: For the first time the game features a split screen multiplayer mode for up to four people, so you no longer have to be online to play friends.

4.0 out of 5 stars MotorStorm: Specific Rift, 5 Jan 2010
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
I recently picked up MotorStorm: Pacific Rift cheaply, and even though I wasn't overly convinced by the demo, since getting used to its quirks and nuances I'm glad I did buy it.

Let me summarise in bullet-point format:

+ The frame rate never struggles and it all moves at a cracking pace.
+ There is absolutely loads of content, including the tournament, local multiplayer and online multiplayer.
+ The physics are brilliant, and really make races feel chaotic and dynamic.
+ Very good pacing and clever difficulty balancing.
+ Good sound effects and a mostly sharp soundtrack (plus there's the option for custom soundtracks).
+ Excellent variety in track design and the differences between each vehicle.

- Loading between different screens can take a little too long.
- Some courses are *very* frustrating until you commit them to memory.
- You always start races in last place.
- Some of the vehicles aren't much fun to drive.
- Most of the trophies are really tough to earn!

It's not the best-looking or most polished racing game in the world, but if like me you're turned off by realism and tweaking under the bonnet and would rather smash through signs, shunt opponents over cliffs or nitro-boost over vast crevasses then this should be right up your street, as it flicks a V-sign to the Gran Turismos or Forzas of the world. The pacing is excellent and it's consistently playable, resulting in easily the most enjoyable racing game I've played since Wipeout HD & Burnout Paradise. I very much look forward to the next entry in the series.

4.0 out of 5 stars Motorstorm madness, 29 Nov 2009
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
A good arcade car racing game. The kids love the two player part. ?Not sure why it is rated as 16 yet, though you do crash cars a lot!

I would recommentd this, though not to the car racing enthusiast.
