MotorStorm on PS3

A customer from fife , scotland , 25/03/2007

MotorStorm takes parts of Burnout and ATV Offroad Fury series, and tricks them out with impressive next-gen bling. With a dozen or so vehicles swapping paint and careening off cliffs in awesome explosions in each race, MotorStorm is as fun as it sounds, and is one of the most intense racing experiences the video game world has ever witnessed.

After playing this game extensively, it's major flaw is fluency within the game. One minute your on the cliff, next minute your off. Then you watch yourself fall in slow motion. If you do manage to stay on the track throughout a race, you'll win. Why? I don't know.

I am giving this 2 stars as it is lacking in one of the most fundamental aspects of a successful arcade style racer: multiplayer features. Many would associate gameplaying as a solo hobby, one where we all sit alone in our homes with no friends. Ridiculous. But now we are being forced to sit on our own and have no friends because the only available option is online these days. Gaming with your friends is a very social activity, however now you will have to tell your friends to stay at home and 'log on' because thats the only way you'll play together. It's a sad day.

I hate racing games, they are boring and repetative and the goal is to shave 1 second of last time, DULL! But then along comes Motorstorm, its a riot, its funny, its wild and its a blast. The challenge is finishing, never mid winning. There are a few tracks but each is excellent with many ways round them, each better suited to a different vehicle. On later levels the AI cars set out to stop you winning, which should be annoying but is actually really fun. Spectacular graphics and hilarious gameplay , what more could you want.?

...No co-op! No-split-screen! The horror! No split screen is the one thing that kinda might put people off. That is the one reason why i gave this 4 stars. But the actual game is brilliant, with a choice of bikes, atvs, mud pluggers, buggys, trucks, and big rigs. You earn new cars and races by winning points from completing races. One also thing that might put people off is the lack of modes, there is only one, which is career, which is a bit annoying if you just want to pick it up and play.

But still, i wouldn't go for race driver grid, or burnout, i'd definetly pick this up!

All in all this is as good as the previous reviews say it is.... The racing is fast and furious, the graphics are exemplary and the online play is quality...(only let down by people who cheat)...

The only one let down is the lack of anything but a career mode.

There is no Time Trial, No Free Run.... which is why I have given it only the 4 stars.

Maybe they will expand it with online updates but for people who cannot access these it is a limited game but well worth a look.
