MotorStorm: Pacific Rift for PlayStation 3 Reviews by Gamers

this game is a must own if your an arcade style racing fan. the tracks look amazing, the vehicles look amazing, the enviromental effects on your boost is genius. lava makes your boost overheat faster, water cools it down. the tracks deteriorate over the course of a race, and my personal favorite....MONSTER TRUCKS!!!!! the online racing is solid, the game is overall more polished than the first and the first one was great. i highly recomend buyin the game if your an ARCADE racing fan, i can't stress the fact that this is an ARCADE style game, if your looking for a racing sim go play grand turismo

Basically, this is a true Motorstorm sequel, more vehicles, more tracks, the lava/water combination is pretty sweet. All in all it's a good game. local multiplayer is a blast, though if you take it online be prepared to be eaten alive (since everyone there knows the tracks by heart and are extremely vicious.
