Game Preview: MotorStorm for Playstation 3 a Beautiful Disaster

Authored by Scott Goldberg on December 11, 2006 - 6:12am.
Motorstorm clip The new Evolution Studios game for Playstation 3, MotorStorm, is a fun take on the racing genre.  Described by one of the game’s developers, Kyle Zendel, as, “brutal off-road racing in chaotic environments,” the races take place in Mad Max and Star Wars-like settings.  The contestants come from an “alternative and extreme off-road racing culture,” and you navigate the various courses without a map, an interesting addition that forces you to focus on the landscape, a subtle and intelligent choice on Evolution’s part.  MotorStorm, for me, is a fantastic preview of what the PS3 can do visually, though it still, supposedly, is only scratching the surface.
