features

  • Attacking and Offensive Driving Players must not only try to win the race but survive against the other racers. Combat-like racing takes center stage as the vehicles are the weapons
  • Stunning Environments MotorStorm features amazing scenic environments that capture some of America’s most recognizable desert landmarks with wide-open plains, harrowing cliff edges, and tight canyon sections
  • Cutting-Edge Artificial Intelligence The A.I. will be able to analyze the race and surroundings and react in the most realistic manner possible. Not only will the competition try to win the race at all costs, but the A.I. will react to situations realistically, such as locating the best routes and changing the level of driving aggression based on player actions
  • Real-time Track Deformation Players will never experience the same track twice as each vehicle will carve up the track in varying depths, making navigation of each lap different than the last Real-time Audio Manipulation – An entirely new in-game music experience where echo and reverb are filtered in, delivering a unique live music experience during each race
  • PLAYSTATION3 Greater processing power on PlayStation 3 and Blu-ray technology enables more immersive visuals and sound effects in MotorStorm, heightening the chaos within each brutal race environment

description

Developed by Evolution Studios, MotorStorm delivers visceral off-road racing, plunging players into a frenzied environment awash with grit, mud and petrol, in a game that leaves the standard rules of racing in the dust. Gone are the limits of power restrictions, limited classes, and qualifying rounds. Players simply choose their vehicle from a massive range – including dirt bikes, ATVs, sand rails, rally cars, monster trucks, and everything in between – then hit the track in a no-holds-barred sprint to the finish line. Carving a swathe of destruction through the ever-changing wilderness, players must compete in a gasoline-fuelled, horsepower spectacle where the only rule is to try and stay alive.

MotorStorm
Bright blue skies. White fluffy clouds. A red siltstone-filled desert. Welcome to Monument Valley. Here, road warriors of various disciplines have gathered to compete in multi-terrain race courses for a chance to live the American dream. The rules are simple. Get into one of seven vehicle types, and get dirty. Rally cars and racing trucks fight for the hard and fast lanes. MX bikes, all-terrain behicles (ATVs) and buggies, stick to higher ground. Ride the ramps. Memorise blind corners. Or lose precious lap seconds as you crash, explode, and magically reappear in the middle of the road.

You are immediately reminded of Burnout, and indeed, there are similarities. The same brand of buttery smooth, ultra-responsive steering controls. That chocolate-like taste of turbo thrusting and throttling. And they way they bind the two most important scientific discoveries of our time - Newton\'s laws of motion and Murphy\'s law of s*** happening - to deliver a smashing good time. But there are also differences.

For starters, the sense of speed is not as strong. In exchange, there is a greater emphasis on driving lines, power sliding and counter-steering. All told, the complexity here makes Burnout look like a kiddie ride in the park, albeit a rocket-propelled version. The inaugural MotorStorm could very well have been the definitive next-generation racing experience. Alas, a limited number of tracks (only eight), lack of time trials modes, and an online mode that is unaccessible to certain subscribers culminate into a mountain of missed opportunities.

Please don\'t believe the hype
This game is a rental at best. Grphically it is amazing but the gameplay is nothing revolutionary and downloads and additional content have been in the works since before the release. Don\'t buy until you\'ve played it.

Never played a funner game
This is my first game for my PS3, and man is it a great one! I have never had so much fun with a game in my life, and I\'ve been playing games for a long time. PlayAsia.com had incredible service and it came FAST. I love this game, and can\'t wait to see what else the PS3 can do in the future!
