Yep, IGN UK during their live coverage said it looked "ok." It might not be no GT5:P but geez, got to give it credit for the amount of crap on screen at once.

It just looks amazing IMO, it is a must buy especially as I loved the gameplay of the first one

the two games they MUST NOT delay are: this and resistance 2. so much hype riding behind both of them, any thing as much as a 2 week delay could kill the games. the originals helped the ps3 through the black era. their sequels should live up to the quality.

KZ2 will not be delayed, and doats, they will nto be delayed by two weeks because no release date has been announced (though Resistance will be released late October or November) MS2 should come earlier

I doubt R2 is gonna be delayed. Insomniac is great with getting things out when they say, the one exception being R&CF which was pushed back a week, and it was likely not their fault. Besides, lots of stores released it early anyways.

OT: Man, that does look great. Makes me wish I could buy an HDTV. The first one was excellent, but this one (with split screen!) looks like it will be way better.

party game : system seller !

Bah the beautiful successor to the beautiful boring launch game. I somehow don't think that it will replicate the pack-in sales success of the predecessor. It just doesn't earn it.

looks amazing just like or even better than the first one.

what always puzzled me as how reviewers gave a low score in the grafix dept. on the orig motorstorm, i felt it looks stunning. big wide tracks dust all over the place, super smooth, in fact id say motorstorm still to this day looks better than anything equivilent to it in genre.

will almost certainly be getting motorstorm 2

@ kyros, take a proper look at MS sales, it is still going at 25k a week in Europe, and had sold 1m before it was packed in. Most people enjoyed the first game, making the franchise more popular, thus boosting sales of the sequel. I think it was a very clever move by sony

The reason why I didn't play the first motorstorm much was because of the infuriatingly long loading times. As long as they get rid of them, I will consider purchasing Motorstorm 2.
