Floods, storms, brush fires, tornadoes and hurricanes have driven persons from towns and cities into safe zones as extreme weather wreaks havoc, creating thousands of square miles of dangerous uninhabitable areas. People turn to renewable energy in the face of the destruction caused by this catastrophe. But these peril zones have likewise become a playground for a new breed of racer. With a stockpile of fuel to be burned, adrenaline junkies head into the wilderness to compete versus each other in spectacular races versus themselves and the elements.

Muscle Cars
Muscle cars have sufficient speed and strength to face uttermost conditions, making them a good choice for any kind of racer. |

SUVs
Powerful, stout and durable, SUVs make up for their lack of speed with all the hit that they may take before breaking down. |

Buggies

 Allow Myself to be as Objective as Possible…
By Eric H
I received this game several weeks back from a friend of mine who didn’t want it — he hadn’t even unwrapped the box due to his total disdain for any kind of game that doesn’t allow the player to kill others.
So I took it off his hands and gave it a whirl. I had absolutely no idea how good or bad the game was, so I was as open to it as a very liberal teenaged political activist of some sort. Immediately I noticed early on the complete lack of any story per se. All you know is that global warming has somehow totally destroyed society, and has scorched the earth. Leaving the planet in a state of chaos with constantly shifting weather patterns, dried lake beds, and cities that have been nearly totally destroyed by the sheer awfulness of Al Gore’s prophecies. Luckily for the off-road crowd, it left the planets supply of all-terrain vehicles intact, so let’s go racing!
You begin the game with no money and only a small handful of slow, poorly-controllable vehicles. I noticed in my very first race how utterly bland the racing is. There are no turbo boosts, no powerups, nothing to modify or change the racing scheme. You glide to the end of the race with very little, if anything at all except trees and other trees to get in the way. And as the game went on, and I amassed more money, cars, and territory to race in, nothing really changed to any discernible degree. Sure, the vehicles I had were a wee bit faster, but they all retained the slimy controls. This game sits in this extremely awkward and weird gray area in between smooth arcade racing and complex racing sim, but it fits to neither very well and only feels slimy and unnatural to drive; like some mischeivious chef smeared cooking oil over everyones cars while they tasted his cupcakes.
Something I soon became aware of is the way the game works the crashes. When you crash, and you will crash plenty of times, the game immediately goes to a loading screen to re-process your car back onto the road. However, the manner in which they determine a crash is entirely inconsistent. You will slam into a redwood tree at 95 miles an hour with no ill effects (on a motorcycle, no less), but if you bump over a small rock, at speeds slow enough to count the trees, you crash. It got to the point that I avoided ramps, jumps, or major inclines of any kind, for fear of the game arbitrarily crashing my vehicle despite a perfect landing. And, just to really get under your skin like a tenacious insect, they often re-spawn you facing a wall, a sheer cliff, or the wrong direction entirely, forcing you to slowly back up and realign your car to the race. And with the way the AI behaves, you probably won’t lose anyway.
You see, this game doesn’t use rubberband AI where the other cars all stay pace with you to give you direct competition no matter how you drive, instead, every other vehicle blasts off at the races beginning at a thousand miles an hour. However, they all hit the brakes towards each races end to allow you to essentially take the game. I almost got the suspicion every other AI car had betted on me to win so they threw the game. This happens EVERY single race, and it gets to the point of utter absurdity. The only thing that ever changes is the occasional race where one car behaves absolutely perfectly to the end without missing a turn or jump. Of course this really got to me, as it felt like the game was just f***ing with me or something.
One of the selling points I noticed with this game is the fact that there is something like 5500 square miles of gameworld to explore. And believe me, that is a lot of open space. There is an achievement for driving from the Northwest corner to the southeast – I attempted this only to give up after an hour and a half left me less then halfway there. And honestly, the only difference in the terrain is going from grassy mountaintops to snowy mountaintops to sandy mountaintops. It’s basically just 5000 square miles of palette-swapped hills. So all it really comes down to is that there really is nothing to explore here. It’s an empty world with nothing in it except the occasional paint scheme to find, something which you really shouldn’t give two sh**s about. Do you really want to slowly chug your way up some random mountain, just so you can unlock a paint scematic for a single car you may not even have yet? I started to wonder if anyone on the development team brought forth their thoughts on the worlds complete emptiness or if they simply passed time until their checks came in the mail.
I give this game two lonely stars for it’s bland, uneventful, hard-to-grip racing. it feels like no one really gave much on the actual racing mechanic of this game. However, I will give this game three stars overall, as I still play it despite all of it’s (major) flaws. Maybe that is because it’s the only racing game I have, and motorstorm is a PS3 exclusive.
So in leiu of nothing better, this game just barely holds down the fort. However, if you had to choose between an old hotwheel your sisters toddler just put in his mouth, or the car your wife has to get yourself to work, which one are you going to decide on?
This is a pass. Wait and see if these halfwits can come up with anything better.
