Advantages: Fantastic Concept, Good Longitivity, Doesn't Get Boring Disadvantages: A bit repetitive?
...version of their newest game MotorStorm: Pacific Rift, but a standalone game exclusively for the PSP, and as Assassins Creed Bloodlines proved to me, the standalones “sequels” are something to get excited for.

MotorStorm: Arctic Edge is just like the other 2 games in the Ps3, it allows you to go crazy with boost and go wild on the track, but as the title suggests it has a wintery/snowy theme to it. So now you are racing in the mountain regions all covered in snow and ice, mud and rock and you’re doing it in a similar line up of vehicles as before, the Bike, Rally Car, ATV, Buggy and the Big Rig, but in addition you get a Snowplugger, ... more
Motorstorm the one of the games which launched at the same time as the Ps3 did and was typically bundled with it and about half the Ps3 owners would have owned it and the rest, quite likely played it. It was the game that showed what the Ps3 could be capable off, showing the graphics off as well as the more variable functions and features the Ps3 allows games to have. The game itself was plain and easy, a simple concept, but somehow different from all the other racing games out at the time. When I saw the Motorstorm was released a PSP version, which wasn’t a dumbed down version of their newest game MotorStorm: Pacific Rift, but a standalone game exclusively for the PSP, and as Assassins Creed Bloodlines proved to me, the standalones “sequels” are something to get excited for. I was really excited because I was looking for a good racing game, but nothing took my fancy until MotorStorm.
What is MotorStorm About?
For the people who have played MotorStorm on PS3, its basically that but on the PlayStation Portable, it offers pretty much the important parts of MotorStorm, but cut out some extra bits which aren’t all that important. But for anyone who doesn’t know anything about the game, it is a racing game, but it offers that little bit more, rather than simply racing a rally car or a formula one car, you are placed in one of a selection of vehicles such as a 4 by 4, a massive truck or a beaten down Rally Car to mention a few and race each other over various tracks designed to be multi choice and directional, basically almost being the sort of game that say, do whatever you can and go wherever you want, just finish the game.
MotorStorm: Arctic Edge
MotorStorm: Arctic Edge is just like the other 2 games in the Ps3, it allows you to go crazy with boost and go wild on the track, but as the title suggests it has a wintery/snowy theme to it. So now you are racing in the mountain regions all covered in snow and ice, mud and rock and you’re doing it in a similar line up of vehicles as before, the Bike, Rally Car, ATV, Buggy and the Big Rig, but in addition you get a Snowplugger, Snow mobile and a Snow Plow, which have replaced the Mud Plugger and Monster Truck. So overall it’s a similar line up off vehicles, 8 classes, and 24 vehicles all together. You can also customise the vehicles by adding a spoiler, a different plow, sponsor sticks or make the wheels bigger, this doesn’t really increase your performance but a fair addition to the game, mainly used to make you look more unique in the online game play, which I haven’t really experience, so can’t comment on it. Overall it’s a good out game and compares to the first one very well, even though it is on the PSP.
Goal Of the Game
Basically it’s a plain old racing game at heart, the goal is to come first in the race to get the best amount of points or second or third, which also gives you points, the more points you get the more levels you unlock and the more you progress in the game, points also unlock new vehicles and modifications you can add to those vehicles. Some levels require you to get a specific number of stars, which are earned by completing a specific level in a specific time or something similar. Honestly a very simple concept, but it is very fun to play because of the simple concept and the unique nature of the tracks and vehicles.
Playability
The game is very easy to get a hang off after you figure out in the first few seconds of gameplay that the button to go is the R trigger (Right Shoulder Button) and the button to Boost is X, I’d found that this is a much more comfortable way to play the game, unlike other games which have a reverse system (X to go, R to Boost/Nitro). The tracks are straight forward, all you do it go forward and follow the odd sign or two as it gives you variety of which way to go, either straight up or take the side road, take the massive ramp and jump over the massive gap or take the bridge, overall very easy to grasp and hours of fun. I would also say that this is a game you can play again and again as it is quite long and a good variety of tracks and vehicles.
Conclusion
This is one of the best racing games I have ever played on the PSP, with the exception of Midnight Club LA on the PSP. This game is built especially for the PSP console and it offers quite a lot, a good variety of tracks, cars and the replay value is also something to consider when buying this game as it will offer you hours of fun, either playing none stop or from time to time it will keep you entertained. I strongly recommend this game if you looking for some kind of rural unique game on the PSP.
