Motor Storm 3/apocalypse.
This game is such a let down, they tried to put a story in there and it sucks arse. Cut scene art sucks arse (its like worse then flash animations on new grounds).
Long load times between races (about 1 -2 minutes)
Its pretty buggy too, ive been stuck in walls countless times. Map resets randomly even when im on the right path.
The only upside to this game are the tracks, there pretty clever and well paces. Lots of jumps, splitting paths and obstacles that you would be used to in a Motor Storm game but the enviroements are pretty lack luster. Even the desert enviroment from Motor Storm 1 felt more appealing then the crumbling dull environment in this game (its set in a city struck by earth quakes).
Another upside is the variable map changes, every now and then the map might have an earthquake happen and the lay out will completely change. It seems fairly random which adds a nice spin, hauling ass through a city seeing a sky scraper tumble down and nearly crush you followed by driving through the remains of the aforementioned sky scraper is pretty neat.
But even scenes like that dont top the lush environments found in Motor Storm 2: Pacific Rift.
The graphics also dont seem as polished either, but thats just my opine.
If your into the series just pop in MS 2 into the ps3 its alot more fun
