MotorStorm 2 - Japanese Preorder

The original MotorStorm forced gamers to race on arid desert tracks surrounded by rocky crags. In the sequel to the game, Sony flips locations and places racers in the tropics where the tracks run parallel to vegetation, the surf, and an occasional volcano.


Players get to ride on mundane vehicles such as motorcycles, rally cars, and buggies but more exotic machines including a monster truck may also be maneuvered through winding roads. Over 350 types of vehicles may be driven which is 55 more than the original MotorStorm. According to the preorder details, game features include voice chat, ranking mode, and online support for up to 12 racers. Players from around the world may also link up and enjoy a race without fear of region restrictions. Preorders are welcome to ship on November 20, 2008.

I think it's a nice change of pace that the game is taking place in a more lush environment than the last one. Apparently it's possible to download the demo of the game starting today on the PS3.

NCSX, I'm sure you already have a PS3 and 360 but there are probably some readers that don't have both systems yet... for those of you that don't, I suggest you take a look at this Stacker 2 contest going on right now where you can win the system of your choice... all you need to do is design a 6 Hour Power t-shirt. There are currently less than 300 entrants, so check out the details here: http://www.brickfish.com/Entertainment/Stacker2?tab=overview

By the way, I hope you don't mind me commenting on your blog. I work with 6 Hour Power so if you have any questions about the contest or the 6HP drink just let me know. Shoot me an e-mail if you enter too, and I'd be happy to vote for your design. Good luck.
