Features
Motorstorm offers both single player and offline racing. You can have up to 12 different racers on a track and your stats are all saved online. There isnt much to do offline. You have to race to earn tickets. You keep racing until you unlock all tracks and earn all the tickets. This game does allow you to talk to other players with a USB headset or a Blue-tooth headset. You can also use the six-axis motion controls to steer your vehicle but for me its much too difficult to control.
Graphics
The graphics are amazing. As you are racing the track starts showing the wear and tear from the vehicles. At some points you will hit something or someone and parts from your vehicle will fall off. This is easily the best part of the game.
Sound
The game sports a pretty nice soundtrack and some great vehicle sounds. There is no commentary in the game but you when your online you can hear everybody that has a mic. The surround sound is awesome. You can hear which side the vehicle behind you is on and you can even hear faint crashes in the distance. Some of the best sounds in a racing game.
Lacks
The game lacks 2 player spit screen and better single player modes.
Overall
I rate this game an 82/100
If the game had more single player modes and a 2 player split screen mode then it would have gotten a much higher score. Online is where this game shines.
