1 out of 5 stars MotorStorm, please don't spend your cash on it, not worth the 19   April 5, 2008
 0 out of 9 found this review helpful

The graphics really are plain not outstanding like others have said, Gameplay not up scratch (basically for this type of game t needs to be pick up and fun which it really isn't)
Round it up..... buy prolog... i know it isn't a whole game but it's a whole lot better than this



3 out of 5 stars A GOOD EARLY GAME   March 27, 2008
 1 out of 2 found this review helpful

motorstorm is a good start for an off road game for the ps3 but needs improving in a few areas.
this game has good graphics and pretty good physics and controls so initially you know you have bought a good handling off road game but....
when you get to level 4 races and above things degenerate into other cars just trying to smash you up no matter if it costs them the race or not.some dubious crashes dont help for example i was travelling at 15 mph and got hit into a rock and my car exploded into a shower of bolts exactly the same as it does when im doing 100 mph,that's not good.level 4 and upwards is basically a chore and chores aren't fun.
online is really good,nice and smooth but if your a casual online gamer prepare to get slaughtered,if you practice online for hours and that's your thing you will be fine.
all in all the good outweighs the bad,for all the good graphics the loading times are really slow,for all the good physics the a.i. goes mental from level 4 onwards and so on and so on but its still worth a punt for 15 pounds preowned!



3 out of 5 stars I don't like this one...or do I?   March 26, 2008

There seem to be two main music tracks, one good and one that makes you cringe!
The good one is a sort of rap pop...thing, without words.
The bad one is...eeuurggghhhhhh! It is too bad for words! It's a sort of intense rock piece of rubbish!!! The words (or should I say the 'word') are just repeated over and over again: "kieaa, kieaa, kieaa, kiaee, mastermanteey!"

AARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGHGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!



Now for the actual game.
Weird and awful and boring.
It is weird because: girls butts stick out like pillows.
It is awful because: you're bike blows up and flips over because you hit a small bump.
It is boring because: it is unoriginal and nothing happens...

It's not an awful game, but it's not good either, definately not worth 19.

10/10



5 out of 5 stars Until Motorstorm 2's Tropical Thrills, This Is The Best Racer On PS3.   March 15, 2008
 19 out of 19 found this review helpful

The recently released trailer for Motorstorm 2 made me go back and play the original again. Its easy to forget how much of an impact this game has. Visually the game is incredibly detailed, but the actual racing feels realistic.

Career modes are shunned in favour of pure racing. These are unlocked after completing the previous event. This does create a few sticking points, escpecially around the Level 4 difficulty mark. Every race is a tense affair, where a slight mistake on the final lap could cost the race.
The amount of tracks is limited, but they take a long time to master. Also the different vehicle classes open them up in completely new ways.

Its obvious what needs improving in the sequel, particularly depth and variety. But for pure racing thrills, and an early glimpse of what the PS3 is capable of, Motorstorm is essential.
