Evolution Studios' sequel to its offroad racer MotorStorm (PS3) will hit PlayStation 3 on October 28, publisher and studio owner Sony has revealed via the PlayStation.Blog.

Instead of the original's desert setting, MotorStorm Pacific Rift features an island environment that has a number of different terrains across its 16 tracks. Other additions include monster trucks, support for up to 16 online players, and 4-person offline split-screen.

Hopefully you can install the damn thing to the PS3 HD. Motorstorm's loading times were abysmal.

  Hope they learned that showing 3d models when choosing a vehicle is not a good idea. Whey they just didn't pre-load all the models into memory before giving the option defeats my logic. Waiting for loading upfront is always better than after each button click.

    it took that long to load 1 model...think about 50...
    
    personally I would've settled for pictures...I don't even care what I'm driving...because it'll take 5 minutes to find the one I want

  Agreed. I would much rather wait 5-10 minutes 1 time than 1 minute every freaking time.
