MotorStorm: Pacific Rift Comments by Tom Bramwell

\o/

checked my email today and found an email from Sony, downloading now I could do with some silly arcade racing TBH, Only got the great but serious Ferrari Challenge at the mo in terms of racers (poor PGR4 lay down it's life for new gaming!)

I have to say MS2 'ain't bad. The gameplay is the same but I'm liking the new setting a bit more and the monster truck is fun, still not sure if I will pick it up but it's definitely on my impulse "oh go on then" list.

Thanks for the peek Sony, you may have pushed a sale. See there are better ways than talking endlessly about your games......

Demo was okay. The setting is better (if greyish), but I don't see a really big step up from 1. Mabe Baja will be better, but both Pure and MS2 won't be a first day sale.

captain-future what are you on about ? you can still use the SixAxis you fool ? in the loading bit it even tells you the SixAxis controls. I think your just nit picking buddy.

All in all i think that MS:PR is allready looking beter than the first MS, it seems alot faster and you can do bunny hops on the bikes even though it looks weird. they've changed the selection menu so now (i'm geussing from the demo) just slide left or right, and to change the bike you go up and down, I think. it's just a 2D thing now rather than that long ass way of having them sitting 3D and pretty.
there's a bit in the demo that you do a huge jump in, and if you do it on a bike and max out your boost your in the air for a good few seconds, when you hit the bottom it gets rid of a loud bang and changes it with a high pitch ringing for a few seconds.

day one purchase for me, and as its on my pre-order list i'm all for it.
