Motorstorm Pacific Rift

[jiffz]

Anybody else got it?

I must say mr and the missus are enjoying this - it still has the Motorstorm feel but is such an improvment; Bigger variation of levels, terrain + vehicles. When I'm watching someone else play, I can't help but get distracted by the amazing graphics all around. Intro movie is beautiful too :yumyum:

Enjoying this much more than Resistance 2; played it briefly yesterday, not that impressed. Even though the gfx are improved, I think it's lost some of the core elements that made Resistance: FOM so great. It doesn't even have normal co-op mode

Yeah I have it, I liked it but.... I hate racing games with a passion, I don't play much PS3, GTA is the only good thing for PS3 atm .

Na but I did just play the demo... Did look nice but don't think I can bring myself to buy it. Got bored of the first one so quickly.

I'm playing Portal at the moment. For £3.49 it's great.

I have the original and this is so similar (from the demo), I couldn't bring myself to buy it over other games

I played Motorstorm a fair bit, I think I pretty much completed it. I used to come back to it now and again and have a blast, but it became boring on the same rocky surface.

There's so much more to this one with the 4 different area's. You really have to choose your paths more carefully depending on your vehicle choice, and the different ways they've implemented water to cool the boost is great.

I wasn't expecting much different to Motorstorm tbh, but the whole game just seems to be a much faster pace, more exiting and with the great new features and jaw dropping graphics; I'm pretty pleased with it

Hmm might pick it up when it's nice and cheap then

Same with Mirrors edge and Resistance

I love this game.. I like playing it online the best. I got it for christmas, played it for like 2 solid days haha.

I've seen that Mirrors Edge dirt cheap in some places. I tend to be suspicious of games when they drop to 20 quid within a month. E.g Kate & Lynch, saw it for 17 quid in ASDA, so downloaded a demo 1st and thought it was appalling.

@Pat - Not played it online yet. My connection is quite poor and I find everyone else is teleporting around the place....

Here ya go mate:

MS PR

Resistance 2 Not even taking pre orders at the mo

Mirrors Edge Will let you slap in a pre order.

 

[FarFarAway]

Meh they're all pre-order, when the games are all out

Well they had LBP the same but that came in pretty quick.

Pre orders don't cost on there though and you aint committing to anything so on the two it lets you, it's worth doing.

Didn't see the top one was out too though.

On a side note though.. Their free delivery is very fast.

I got this game for christmas and it's amazing

I downloaded the demo before christmas and played it over and over.

Some of the music on it is good aswell.

I did get resistance2 before xmas but completed it easily and haven't really touched it since seemed to be really short.

I tried resistance2 online and it was ok but couldn't really get into it, some of the beserk things are a bit wierd aswell like total invisibility

Yeah the music on Motorstorm was awesome (lots of Pendulum) and they seemed to carry that trait on with Pacific Rift.

I got Resistance 2 and Pacific Rift for Xmas, but I've played Resistance for literally 30 mins where as me and the mrs are hooked on Pacific Rift. Worried we're gona complete it too quick tho
