VideoGamer: MotorStorm: Pacific Rift Review

PlayStation has had some hugely impressive racing franchises over the years and Pacific Rift shows that MotorStorm is on its way to join the greats. VideoGamer is still not completely sold on what they believe is an overly harsh handling model that frequently restricts the amount of fun the average gamer can have, but it's not an insurmountable problem. Once you're in the groove you'll find some incredible tracks to scream around at high speed and the online play should provide plenty of longevity. Some might see Pacific Rift as a safe follow-up, but with a brand new location, more tracks and more features, it's more or less exactly what fans wanted.

Pros:
* Intense racing
* Superb visuals
* Improved online functionality

Cons:
* Feels like a fairly safe sequel

8/10

Will be AA here at GS.

Will be AAA for me :D

It'll be AA at GS.Floppy_Jim

That's all that matters :). If it scores higher than the first it's a win in my book. MS is very fun.

Well, it has literally over twice as much content as the first game. That should be enough to give it that extra 0.1 to the score, lol. I do like the MS series, aside from the Wipeout and Burnout series it's the only racing game I find to be any fun.

It'll be AA at GS.Floppy_Jim

Good enough.
