MotorStorm Member Review for the PS3

The truly good and fun games exclusive to the Playstation 3 are pretty darn scarce to put it mildly. But Motorstorm hopefully is a sign of great things to come. I just picked it up today popped it in and had a very exciting and fun time for about 2 or 3 straight hours playing the single player. I'm telling you this thing is a blast!!! Not to mention probably the very best soundtrack I've heard in a video game. That's no small feat either. I'm talking some good hard-hitting heavy metal and heavy grunge tunes. Motorcycles, Trucks, Rally Cars, Dune Buggys, ATVs, even Semi-Trucks are available. The graphics are superb. The crashes are intense and they go into slow motion to show every detail of the crash. The action is fast.......the mistakes are deadly.......and theAI competition is pretty fierce. The difficulty of the AI in the races seems pretty much perfect to push you to your limit. Basically all the tracks are in a desert landscape with boulders, mountains, mesas, hills, rocks, cliffs, and other random obstacles. Some of the tracks on these races take you into these very hairy situations with jumps and bumps that will give you some serious air time. But be careful landing or be careful the direction you jump cause when you land you could be going straight off a 300 foot cliff. I can honestly highly recommend this game as a barrel of fun. Along with Resistance Fall of Man it's the funnest game I've played yet on the Playstation 3!!! GEt it. - Hey and that's only the single player....I haven't even played multiplayer yet but from what I've heard.....that's where the real fun is to be had! Looks like there's a unique ranking system and plenty of options. Later gamers.
