MotorStorm:Pacific Rift PS3 Review

Race around on mind-blowing tracks in vehicles of your choice

Great off-road racing, large number of vehicles to choose from, impressive multiplayer package, top-notch visuals

Dull background score, no vehicle customization

The concept of the game remains unchanged with a variety of vehicles at your disposal, ranging from a petite bike to a mean monster truck with the occasional race truck in between. This exciting mix of vehicles makes Motorstorm truly unique. The execution is as good as the concept. One needs to win races and go up the ranks to unlock all vehicle types; initially you are allowed only a limited number of vehicles. This is a good concept since it makes you want to try out other vehicles as well.

Let's talk about the vehicles in detail. There are 7 vehicle types including bikes, ATVs, race trucks, rally cars, buggies, and the awesome monster truck. The vehicle control is accurately recreated, so that every vehicle type feels unique and has a purpose to fulfill. You can take up a light vehicle, but don't get upset when you are easily sidelined by the big guys. On the other hand, taking control of a monster truck will give you the option to boss around, but try beating the small guys in a straight line. Not happening. The lighter vehicles are exciting to begin with, but you are easily pushed around, and the destruction of your vehicle is easy.

What About NFS Undercover?

"The original Motorstorm was unlucky; it was a good game but riddled with issues. I call it unlucky because the game was released in a hurry to meet the PS3 launch deadline, making it a good launch title but still falling short on promises. " The original Motorstorm wasn't a LAUNCH title. It was released 2-3 months (and into the next year) after the release of the Playstation 3.

Great review. It would be better if you mention the cost of the game and its VFM coefficient.
