  • Abstract:  Second albums are always the trickiest. The weight of expectation is a heavy cross to bear and pitfalls are all too easy to stumble into, whether its going too experimental and alienating the existing fan base, or being too cautious and not pushing th...

  • Twice the number of tracks as the original, Many course designs are utterly fantastic, Core racing is an absolute blast, Great multiplayer, both online and off

  Published: 2008-12-31, review by: smh.com.au

  • Abstract:  THIS welcome sequel addresses most of the flaws of its predecessor and delivers another giddy, knockabout racer. The most significant change is the setting - a verdant Pacific island - that allows for far more diversity between the off-road trac...

  • Abstract:  If you were lucky youd also see the driver catapulting across the landscape. So, too, with Pacific Rift. It has more of the same madhouse, flat-out and bump-and-grind racing. Taking the correct line is the key to victory and the wrong line inevitably...

  • Spectacular intro visuals. Solid online mode. Achieves everything the original didn’t.
  • Seems like a ‘safe’ sequel. Framerate drops when the action is full on.

  • Great off-road racing, large number of vehicles to choose from, impressive multiplayer package, top-notch visuals
  • Dull background score, no vehicle customization
  • The original Motorstorm was unlucky; it was a good game but riddled with issues. I call it unlucky because the game was released in a hurry to meet the PS3 launch deadline, making it a good launch title but still falling short on promises. This time ar...
