Motorstorm Goes On Tropical Vacation
The original Motorstorm was a solid launch title that really showcased the true-to-life potential of modern landscape in games. The opening cinematic looks like you are watching the Nature channel in HD. Developer Evolution Studios is ditching the sun-drenched arid landscape of Monument Valley for a Hawaiian-inspired island getaway with tons of water and a lush setting. The new locale will be no less forgiving to the gladitorial racers than their previous offering, adding monster trucks to the lineup of available vehicles.
The crashes are truly spectacular in the original title, and this one should be no exception. There is a new gameplay mechanic involving controlling your character flying through the air after a crash. Possibly avoiding the other vehicles will give you a bonus multiplier, or maybe the other way around.
