A shining example of the very short lived genre of spectacle racers. Gameplay itself is very standard, but not many other games can claim to have you race across a collapsing skyscraper or weave between tanks and soldiers as your race interdicts with a D-Day-esque invasion.
MotorStorm is one of Sony’s most under appreciated franchises, offering some of the most high energy and visceral racing experiences out there, and Apocalypse is the absolute peak of the series. It’s just a damn shame that we’ll most likely never see another MotorStorm game again.
It seems every racing game from this gen has poor controls with blurry hard to see tracks and garbage physics. In MortorStorm’s case it’s no different. The tracks suck. They’re hard to see, with tons of debris in the way that you’ll crash into. It’s hard to control most of the vehicles, which means you’re going to either crash into something or fly of the track. Collisions are garbage. Just pass on this garbage game, there’s better ones out there.
ngl playing this right after disaster report was some real tonal whiplash from "man earthquakes are scary and can destroy the status quo that we take for granted" to "EARTHQUAKES ARE AWESOME LETS DRIVE CARS IN EM NATURAL DISASTERS ARE BADASS".
it sure do be more motorstorm, the core gameplay is the same weighty multi-vehicle chaotic nonsense with a late game rubber banding spike you'd expect. this time the festival takes place in totally-not-san-francisco except the twist is the entire city gets hit by several natural disasters that dynamically change the course. Driving through the natural disasters is exactly as thrilling as it sounds but I do think that the core path-finding gameplay of the series gets a bit muddied when the tracks are constantly crumbling around. The mostly urban environments also mean that most of the terrain is flat asphalt rather than the various dirts and muds and snows of the last 3 games. It's certainly flashier, but the actual track designs kinda falter for it. This game also has a story mode which like I can def understand due to the fact that the previous games had zero narrative to em and I'm sure they wanted to flesh out the world but I couldn't vibe with the cutscenes, the writing and artstyle just aren't my thing. It's weird when it calls back to previous motorstorm games as if I am supposed to recognize these random characters that didn't exist in the previous games, but the story does kinda give the whole series some closure, which is honestly kinda cool given this is likely the last main motorstorm game we will ever get.
overall its aight, but pacific rift still is gonna be the GOATorstorm nawsay

is it just me or did the graphics in this one age worse than the original?
I think this game was fine. Nothing of note to really say. Evolution got much better after this when they made Driveclub, despite it launching in horrible shape.
big dog da goat no cap
Even with it coming out at quite possibly the worst time ever, continuing the tradition of Evolution being handed raw deals at launch, the game perseveres with great arcade action, even better graphics that truly accentuate the gnarliness of holding a racing festival in an apocalypse, and an admittedly interesting story set-up which has you playing through the eyes of a fresh-faced rookie, a thrill-seeking regular, and a grizzled vet wanting to simply put to bed the very wild thing they created. Expect a massive difficulty spike in the later races, as per Evolution tradition.
Not interested in racing games, but played through most of this because it came with my TV. I don't have much to compare it to, but it was entertaining enough that I played through most of the story mode. Why they bothered including the shitty story, I have no clue.
It's just really fun and it's that simple
Super fun arcade racer. I prefer Pacific Rift more due to the setting, but Apocalypse was pretty fun as well. Some people don't like the various destruction events which is understandable since it makes the game feels more of an action game instead racing.
But let's be honest... it's an arcade racer, the driving doesn't matter that much.

THIS GAME IS AWESOME. WONT HAVE ANYONE TELL ME OTHERWISE
one of my favorite racing games growing up, the best soundtrack in the series, the only con is that you had to play online to unlock other cars and i guess in 2011 i was too afraid playing with other people lol
Pretty fun game to play local
kudos to the guy whose bright idea was to make cars and cosmetics only unlockable via online rankings
VERY FUN!
I miss this game...
It's a fun Split/Second clone, but I hope that if Sony ever puts out another Motorstorm, it's more like the first two games. Story is absolute cringe, skip the cutscenes. You'll thank me later.
where's physics where's fun why are u so cringe split second
