Oh-My-God. I cannot wait. Well done Sirs. This game looks awesome already. Definitely pre-rendered but that's okay, we already know what amazing visuals they're capable of in the first MotorStorm. Love the trademark ending and the new Monster Trucks.

I'm super excited for this. They definitely know how to make an awesome teaser!

Make note that the island clearly shows lush jungle environments but also the desert environments we're used to from MotorStorm.

All I ask is that there's a track that involves us racing along the beach with gorgeous water effects. How sick would that be?!



Confirmed from PlayStation.Blog:
"The MotorStorm style of anything-goes racing is moving from the mountainous desert to a lush Pacific island, replete with thick swamps, dense jungle, towering peaks and steaming volcanoes. You’ll be rampaging through thick mud, tangled undergrowth, swift flowing rivers, and searing lava pools of this new location with all of the vehicles familiar to players of the first MotorStorm: ATVs, rally cars, buggies, motorbikes, race trucks, mudpluggers and Big Rigs. Joining the cast is the new monster truck class, likely to become a fan favorite (check out the video below).

It’s still a bit early, but here’s what we can confirm as far as features are concerned: 16 new multi-route tracks, 16 players can race head-to-head online, and a hugely requested feature hits MotorStorm: 4-player split-screen mode."

    Finally, offline multiplayer! I'm sure the actual in-game graphics will be fantastic again, really looking forward to this one. Extra points for using a Pendulum track and for borrowing cues from Dead Or Alive for the driver's, uh, "assets".

      Yeah they pick great music! I *bleep*ing LOVE the soundtrack in MotorStorm. It's one of the only games that I see no need for custom soundtracks. I mean how can you go wrong with Queens of the Stone Age and Slipknot? Perfect for racing like this. Plus the "Hell Above The Water" Curve track that they used in the first MotorStorm trailer is gold too.

      And yeah, the girls in the first MotorStorm weren't lacking any physical assets in that one either.

    Although this looks awesome, i probably wont get it. I didn't enjoy the 1st one too much. I might still get it if i have nothing else.

      At least rent it if possible. MS2 looks to be an amazing racer with elements that aren't found in many other games, like punching an opponent off their bike.

    Evolution, you are the new shit.

    It's decided, I'm already buying MotorStorm 2. They gotta bring back another Gluecifer song though, Automatic Thrill got my heart racing when I was online.

    YES! OFFLINE MULTIPLAYER!

    This game had practically everything. Now that it has offline multiplayer, this is going to be pretty much one of the best games ever.
