MotorStorm is a racing game series published by Sony Computer Entertainment and is developed by Evolution Studios, and Bigbig Studios. The titles are “off-road racing“ games featuring different types of vehicles with their own strengths and weaknesses and tracks with different terrains which may either hinder the vehicles’ handling, or improve it.
The central premise of the series is a gathering of off-road racing enthusiasts for an event entitled the “MotorStorm Festival“. Participants in the MotorStorm Festival are not limited to their vehicle choice for any event and cutthroat racing is encouraged. Races allow for any combination of vehicles to be used together in a single event.
The first MotorStorm game was released in December 2006 in Japan, 6 March in North America and in Europe on 23 March. The first MotorStorm game includes vehicles, ranging from Bikes to Big Rigs, each with their own abilities and weaknesses. While Bikes are fast vehicles in the game, alongside with Rally Cars, they are prone to being punched out by other drivers with ATVs or other Bikes, and can be easily destroyed by any other vehicles other than ATVs or any other Bikes. Rally Cars are the fastest vehicle in its class, but can easily suffer through rough bumps and terrains, and thus can be easily damaged by any other heavy vehicles. Mud Pluggers are medium-heavy vehicles, and can tackle any terrain they find, but does not excel well in speed. Big Rigs are the heaviest vehicles in its class. While it favours any terrain, excluding rocky terrains, it’s speed is very slow, and this can be a problem when racing against faster vehicles.
There are 8 tracks that can be raced in the Monument Valley from the sand dunes to rocky canyons, with the additional four tracks that can be purchased through the PlayStation Store, totalling up to 12 tracks. For example, the “Mudpool“ consists a racetrack that is completely filled with mud, giving lighter vehicles a massive disadvantage, thus forcing them to use the ramps which does not contain mud, while Mud Pluggers and Big Rigs gains the advantage through the muddy terrains. “Dust Devil“ consists a sandy desert, which can be suited for any vehicles, though hazards are present in the track, such as stacks of burnt out wrecks and including dangerous rocks.
Nitrous Boost plays a large part in MotorStorm for the first time and is used to either catch up to opponents or pull away from them. Players must keep an eye on their boost meter, which shows how hot the car’s engine is. The longer the boost is held, the hotter the engine becomes. If the boost is held when the engine reaches its critical temperature, it will explode, thus forcing the player to catch up with opponents again, who are further away from the player. Since explosions resulting from the boost typically rocket the player’s vehicle forward, they can be used to edge out another racer across the finish line. This can be very useful when behind, although this does not work all of the time if the AI opponent gains the upper hand.
Since then, Motorstorm has achieved global sales of over 3 million copies.
