Welcome to the Island, a place where crazy people are willing to risk their lives for the pure enjoynment of racing.
Pacific Rift is a very well balanced racing game, you may be a motorcicle fan, a rally lover or you could be more into those really big Monster trucks who like to squash normal cars into pancakes, it doesn't matter because in Motor Storm Pacific Rift its mostly certain you'll find a ride that you'll like.

Unlike the repetitive tracks in the first game, Pacific Rift has many elements that prevent the tracks from being repetitive, you'll race in beatiful beaches with lots of water and sand, on top of vulcanos with lots of lava where you can hot baths or you can race in abandoned sugar factories (god I hate that track!).
The game has good sounds (just by earing you know what type of veichle is behind you) and an intense soundtrack that is suitable to the games competitive and agressive races.
The Single player mode is well made, your oponents will do stuff that you'll not except, which will make you always alert of your surroundings, and AI racers always race at your pace, meaning you'll never be to far behind or to far ahead which is a good thing because you'll always be near the action, also you can gain lots of cool stuff on Single player mode, things like new drivers, new body's for your rides, unlock trophies, etc.

Boost is the most important element in every race, boost is limited, the much more you use it the more will your vehicle hit go up and if you're not carefful you'll get blown sky high, so you must use your head to use the boost at the right times, you also may use track elements like water to cool down your boost faster.
In overall Pacific Rift is a Solid racing game with solid gameplay, very well design tracks and vehicles and has a great competitive multiplayer, but there is still much more room for improvements.
My final score is:
