Manufacturer's Description
Developed by Evolution Studios, MotorStorm is a brutal, no-holds-barred offroad racing game created exclusively for the PlayStation 3 computer entertainment system. Set in the fictitious desert environment of Monument Valley, MotorStorm takes full advantage of the processing power of the PlayStation 3 to deliver an extreme racing event where the goal is to not only win, but to survive.

In the game, players will descend upon the MotorStorm Festival, a celebration of the alternative and extreme offroad racing culture. Throwing caution to the wind, players will take on a variety of racing fanatics and battle through chaotic, action-packed tracks to try and become the Festival champ.

Capitalizing on its pedigree in offroad racing, Evolution Studios has created a true next-generation gameplay experience that features smarter artificial intelligence (AI), real-time track deformation, fully destructible vehicles and environments, and stunningly detailed scenery. Tapping into the power of the PlayStation 3, MotorStorm will showcase cinematic effects such as motion blur, depth-of-field, and Hollywood-style crash cams that replay spectacular crash sequences during a race.

Customer Reviews

You can't polish a turd!
This game is awful. This is what we all feared the next gen may be like....All style no substance. They should have called this game, "PS3 graphical demo 1" So unintresting so unrealistic and downright shallow. I Played the first race and thought i'd rather pick out my eyelashes. Thats right the immence pain felt from pulling out eyelashes would not only be more benificial to your my time on earth it actualy feels better.
Give the money you could have bought this game with and give it to a homeless person...or a church or a donkey sanctuary....I couldnt care less what you do with your money but DO NOT BUY THIS GAME!

OVER AND OUT

i just cant win!
playing racing games i am so used to winning but this game is so imposible to beat it is crazy. the stunning visuals and great sounds make you really feel like your a part of the game but there is the underlying fact that the ai are just all secret lewis hamilton-valenino rossi's and are sooo hard to beat. if you feel like getting frustrated and smashing up your ps3 then buy this game otherwise i wouldnt recomend it to anyone even my worst enemy

Great arcade racer
This is quite simply the best arcade racer since the original Super Mario Kart. It's races are intense and hard fought. You can be at the front and end up coming last or vice versa and all this can happen in the space of one lap. The courses, although there are only around eight of them, are well designed with multiple routes each one tailoured to the specific vehicle class you are driving. The AI is simply brilliant, viscious but fun to play against. The online racing has flaws, it does, but is really good fun to play against other humans.
There in is the problem. No Splitscreen multiplayer which is the hallmark of all the best console racers. If it had that it would be almost a perfect game and would have achieved full marks.
