MotorStorm: Pacific Rift dated
Three weeks away.
Sony has announced that PS3 exclusive MotorStorm: Pacific Rift will be released in the UK on 7th November.
The Evolution Studios-developed racer transports the game's rally/ATV/motorbikes/monster truck mashup from the original game's Monument Valley to a new island location full of volcanoes, rivers and jungle.
It's got 16 beefy tracks, introduces monster trucks and up to four-player split-screen play, and allows you to cool off the vehicles' fearsome boost by driving through the surf or pools of water.
As with the original, Pacific Rift also features online racing, this time for up to 16 racers.
There's a demo on the PlayStation Store now, featuring the Rain God Spires track (for single-player or two-player split-screen), if you fancy trying before you buy, and you can find various previews, screenshots and videos on the MotorStorm: Pacific Rift gamepage.
Check back for our review very soon.

to see why.

My own feeling from having played the demo a while back is that they maybe think it's too similar to the original (which they gave an 8 to) and doesn't show enough improvements. I'll wait and see what the other reviews say about it first but I'm in two minds to cancel my pre-order and pick it up when it's cheaper next year. I *did* enjoy the demo but not as much as expected and only after a few plays, my first impressions were not favourable as the track felt like a remix of the ones from the first game (other videos I've seen show that the new tropical setting is not really that obvious), the vehicles feel a bit floaty and the graphics look exactly the same (including those horrible flickering shadows).

No I thought this too. I also had the same feeling about Resistance 2 when I saw it on a show floor recently.

I think tinkering would lead to crappiness.

wow thats quite a difference. after the demo its now just dropped off my pre-order lst. probably not a good idea to release a demo thats going to put people off buying the game. really hope this all get ironed out cause i had high hopes for this.

Now more cautious about getting this, Edge giving only a 7 is not an end of the world as numbers of games I have enjoyed do get less than 8 but perhaps better as second hand buy?

It's the first video I've seen that genuinely shows how varied the tracks are compared with not only each other but particularly the somewhat bland-looking first game. It's revived my interest in this game, especially as GAME have just emailed me today to let me know that price of MS
