MotorStorm 3 Goes Post-Apocalyptic?

The French site PS3Gen claims to have gotten its hands on "stolen" images of MotorStorm 3, purporting to show the PS3-exclusive racer set in a San Francisco of collapsed buildings and raging fires.

Quite a departure from the series first three iterations, which set loose the fleet of cars, trucks and things that go in fragile ecosystems in the Utah desert, a Pacific island, and the Arctic. That appears to be a building mid-collapse. Another shows pedestrians scattering across your path, so maybe the game will feature courses that change or get blocked off, in addition to the myriad shortcuts it usually tosses up.

I gave the obligatory whats-up to SCEA but Sony's already given the refusal of comment on rumor and speculation to PS3Gen. Meantime, put your powers of keen observation to work. Does this pass the smell test? Are these images of another racer altogether?

Day 1!

I loved Pacific Rift, I can't wait to get my hands on some more Motorstorm. I hope the graphics take another big step up.

Looks sensational

Loved pacific rift, this will be awesome!

daymn :S sony jsut keeps on giving the goods one after the other and we haven't even seen all of it yet lol

I personally think it's a Brilliant idea! And is it just me or is that building collpasing as they drive by it

Doesn't look like Motorstorm to me but they may have overhauled the game engine.

Before it was New York and Washington, now it's San Francisco (this and Vanquish are set there)? Funny stuff.

Man, I think it's time I go back to Pacific Rift and finish that up. This one looks like a ton of fun!

jesus!!!. LBP2, killzone 3, infamous 2 and now motorstorm 3??. awesomeeeee!!!.
