## Description

desertcart.co.uk Review 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. Stopping to admire the scenery is not a good idea The tracks left by other cars remain for the whole race The new four player splitscreen mode will be a party favourite MotorStorm remains one of the PS3’s best looking exclusivesThe basic setup of MotorStorm - 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 it’s 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 isn’t much more than a change of scenery from the first game, but when it looks this good, that’s not much of a problem. Key FeaturesParadise 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.About the developer: Evolution Studios Nobody can doubt the experience British developer Evolution Studios has with off-road racing games, with five World Rally Championship titles and the best selling PLAYSTATION 3 launch title: MotorStorm. Satellite studio Bigbig is also well known for the Pursuit Force series.

Review: ......WOW - Great work Evolution Studios!!!!! They did an awesome job with this game. Normally with sequels, manufactorrs add tonnes of new stuff. In this, they've kept it the same as the original but added a few new things. FOR THOSE WHO ARE NEW TO MOTORSTORM: This is probably the best racing game developed. Its 110% off road racing. You have loads of different vechicles such as Motorbikes, Quad bikes, Mud pluggers, Rally cars, Racing trucks, Monster trucks and Big rigs. You must choose carefully as each vechicle has its own ups and downs. Big rigs destroy everything it their path, Rally cars are super fast, Motorbikes are super agile. Not only that, you must choose the route you wish to go in a race. There are routes suited to light weights, medium weights and heavy weights. This is a supoer aggresive but purely awesome racing game I love: - The ability to choose your driver - the ability to select a car model and skin in 2D with literally hundreds of choice (ALL of the cars from the first game are in this with llooaaddss more) - The ability to race 4 player split screen - Take your own screenshots. - Different types of maps, Earth, Air, Fire, Water. - More skill to boasting with Fire that heats up your engine and water that cools down - Play your own music that's saved on your HDD - The ablity to ram into people with L1 and R1 makes for some super aggressive racing and awesome crashes. - 16 different maps... - More game modes: Elmintaion, Wreck Limits, Checkpoints etc. - No more time spent going the wrong way. Press 'Select' and it will automatically put you back onto the track - Crashing is never the set back it used to be. Even if you crash you still remain in the 'pack' - Supports trophies - YOU CAN NOW BACKUP SAVED DATA. Make sure you get the update but you can now backup saved data (minus data from time attack) and if you (like me) are lucky enough to have 2 PS3s you can transfer data between each one... - Lots to explore...7 months and I'm still finding new routes, learning about each vechiles...its great that theres plenty to keep me entertained. - Online...very responsive...quick to get into games and seems pretty much lagless. awesome fun with custom, casual and ranked games! - THE MONSTER TRUCK (enough said) The only downsides I can see: - Crashing is alot easier. So many small rocks which just make your car topple. - Some routes are unclear. Sometimes you can ram through a barrier and onto a shortcut, sometimes you ram through a barrier and you go into a No Zone way - very confusing espically with the large array of scenery. - All of the AI is attached to you by a little invisible elastic band. This means so matter how good you race the AI will always spring back for a neck and neck finish. This is frustrating at times as most wins can be down to luck...But I guess...no matter how good or bad you are the levels are the same difficulty for everyone... In alll...this is an awesome game in which EVERY PS3 owner must have -~-EDIT-~- Okay its been a few months and two expansion packs have been released! They include: - 14 NEW TRACKS (considering the game shipped with 16...they've almost doubled the amount of levels! - BETTER DESIGNNED TRACKS Not often where the DLC tracks are better than the shipped ones is it? Darkfire swamp...racing through a dark and gloomy swamp, Reef Runner...a race across mutliple islands, Hallowed earth...an almost-underground-entirely map, quicksands...across a beach front and brimstone...eh...dont know how to describe this map....just AWESOME? - 8 REMAKES...out of the new 14 maps 8 of them are remakes of existing maps and very nicely done. They've openned new sections of the map for racing and closed others making your favourite maps...even better! - NEW TROPHIES, VECHILES, DRIVER LIVERIES ETC - NEW SPEED EVENT - Race between checkpoints collecting time and see how much time you can finish with and see where you rank in the world...with an added twist: BARRELLS. kncok over green barrells to gain extra time red ones loose you time. mix your stratiegies to get the highest time! In all....BUY THIS...but as mentioned before...this game is both frustratingly awesome and beautifully annoying....
Review: Better, Bigger, Badder and Amazing! - I can honestly say that this game has impressed me on all levels. I thought it would be Motorstorm but with a few add-ons. How wrong I was. The Motorstorm engine has been improved to bring you better graphics, massive tracks with heaps going on, brand new garage feature and heaps of awesome vehicles for you to smash up, burn, sink and blow up into pieces. There's a huge array of new tracks divided into the four element categories - Earth, Fire, Air and Water. In Fire tracks for example you may be racing deep in the centre of the island around dry burn out lava pits, in Air tracks you'll be high up almost in the clouds jumping from huge cliffs to the next and in Earth you'll be smashing your way through dense jungles and abandoned structures and so on... The tracks are absolutely stunning showing off amazing lighting effects and the lava and water really adds a lot of new elements to the game that change the way you play Motorstorm. Vehicles look better, there's far more detail and the tracks are larger and more epic. This game looks and feels just gorgeous and the stunning intro was perfect for the game. The bikes in MS Pacific Rift are really special, they are far better to handle, look just amazing and are the most fun vehicle class to use. Monstor Trucks look amazing too but take some getting used to, once you've mastered them though they can be quite lethal to smaller vehicles. New features include a garage where you can select your own driver and customize your vehicles. Progressing through the game will unlock lots of new outfits, vehicles and videos and there's also PS3 trophies to be earned so the feeling of wanting to progress and unlock everything is there throughout. If you liked Motorstorm you will LOVE Motorstorm Pacific Rift. An amazing sequel to an amazing game. 10/10

### ⭐⭐⭐ You have to survive this game.
*by A***Y on 20 June 2011*

I have to say, this is probably the most frustrating game I have ever played (together with the first Motorstorm game). This frustration is born out of the parts of the game which are supposed to make it fun, which is confusing. As a lot of people have said, the events in latter levels of the game (level 6 onwards) are very difficult to win. You have to learn the tracks really well to make sure you're taking the right route for whatever vehicle you're using. That means you have to learn the various tracks within each track. You have to contend with AI who are more interested in detroying you than actually winning the race. Ontop of that, you have to avoid crashing because the elastic band AI will demote you from first to last place in one corner. The thing is though, once you do finally win it makes it all the more satisfying. If the game was easy, there'd be no point in playing. Sure, you can build up enough points by getting a mixture of golds, silvers and bronzes to actually 'win' the overall festival. But I couldn't do that, I HAD to win every event. The game drives you to want to win every event. Otherwise, you've just wasted time NOT winning. I wasn't enjoying the game in the end, I was simply compelled to keep playing until I won every event. When I was on the last event, I just kept thinking 'get this one over with and you can finally stop playing this game'. For that reason, I have to mark it down.
