MotorStorm - Pacific Rift

[Reegan]

It's been nearly one month since the MotorStorm Pacific Rift demo was made available, but only for paying subscribers of Sony's downloadable video magazine Qore. This week, that demo will get opened up to the general public when the PlayStation Store gets its weekly update on Thursday.



At the end, he mentions that the one-level playable demo will feature the Rain God Spire track and will allow single-players to race against the computer, or alternatively, two players to complete via splitscreen. The demo is set to go live October 16th.

MotorStorm: Pacific Rift features all 7 vehicle classes from the original game (Bikes, ATVs, Buggies, Rally Cars, Racing trucks, Mud Pluggers and Big Rigs) as well as a new class, Monster Trucks. Monster trucks are relatively fast and capable of crushing opponents and vegetation, however because they are so big and high up, their center of gravity isn't that low, making them very easy to overturn. They will not be able to run over Big Rigs because Big Rigs are the second toughest vehicle in its class (thanks to its very high strength, and its difficulties of being crushed to the side) and they are the only ones who can battle against the Monster Trucks.

All vehicles featured in the original MotorStorm will appear in the new game as well as a whole new array of vehicles. This includes vehicles downloaded as part of game packs such as Revenge Weekend and Devil's Weekend
