Motorstorm : Pacific Rift

Advantages: Graphics, Longevity
Disadvantages: Too Easy, Slightly Repetitive

The original Motorstorm is one of the best games I had played for the PS3, so I had no hesitation in buying Pacific Rift. But, I didn't immediately start playing it, I had it for around 3 months before I first played it and from then on I was hooked. The main change that has been made is the introduction of new types of tracks. Air, Fire, Water and Earth. The Air zone has lots of big jumps and is probably my afvourite. The Fire zone is surrounded in molten lava ad makes the boost heat up a lot quick, with the Water zone doing the opposite - cooling down your booster. And finally the Earth zone which has very few jumps. I didn't think these new "Zones" made much of a difference to the game. The other main change is that the game has moved away form every track being full of dull grey, brownish colours. As the front cover shows ...

Motorstorm Pacific Rift The Truth

Advantages: Split screen, more colourful than 1st MS much more read review
Disadvantages: motorstorm 1 seemed more chaotic

Motorstorm Pacific Rift The Truth Introduction Motorstorm is the second game of the motorstorm series and a lot of people were hoping that this would make them forget about motorstorm 1 and its lack of modes. I think this game has but it has got some things that I preferred in motorstorm 1. In this review ill show everything i know and played of motorstorm PC. Story There is no story to this game, just a series of races and events. The only thing is that the amount of races, there must be about 150 races each 2 laps long which is long when your crashing and dodging vehicles. Gameplay Gameplay is Motorstorm PC is very well down, with the L2 and R2 buttons as your accelerate and decelerate really makes you feel you?re pressing down on a pedal. the x button for boost is a much improved system with the game ...

Review of Motorstorm: Pacific Rift (PS3)

Motorstorm Pacific Rift (PS3): A first rate arcade racer

Advantages: Improves on the original in every way, creating an experience that is exhilarating and a lot of fu
Disadvantages: Nothing that you won't forgive

Everyone who plays computer games learns to develop opinions about them. After a few hours play of a game, most people can give a brief overview of the good, the bad, the ugly, and ways that the series should go in future. It's a shame, then, that developers rarely listen to these opinions. Luckily Evolution Studios have listened to exactly what the fans wanted when creating Motorstorm Pacific Rift, and as a result they have produced a game that offers an unrivalled adrenaline and destruction packed racing experience this side of Burnout. In short, it's everything that the first game should have been. For newcomers to the series, the premise of Pacific Rift is simple. You put sixteen different vehicles of varying shapes and sizes together on varied tracks filled with death defying jumps, tight turns, and hazards in all shapes ...
