Default Motorstorm II preview

I loved this game on my PS3 - especially on my huge projector screen, which makes the mesa levels really hairy!

Here's a preview of the sequel...

Impressive video! but needs more boobage
Will it have deformable ground like the first one suggested it was going to have and failed to deliver?

Hope it's better than the first one. Thought it was pretty boring myself.

I'm limited by the throw distance, but it's a 68" diagonal at the moment and my settee sits about 8ft away! I can honestly say its the best gadget I've bought since my Sky+

Playing Motostorm and plunging over cliffs on the Mesa is absolutely MENTAL!!

Well, it is a pretty poor game. I played mine for about 2 days and it's just been gathering dust since (much like the PS3 since I finished Uncharted).

The worst thing about Motorstorm was that you could be having the race of your life, no mistakes, hitting all the jumps etc... thinking you're miles in the lead, slide slightly wide on the last corner and the rest of the pack fly past

I was using a 93" from my Hitachi PJTX100 projected onto a wall from about 9-10 feet away.

Moving house now so I'm having a 2mX1.5m 4:3 screen fitted in a room 15ft long that I'm using as my new cinema.

Nice!

Everyone who sees my game console hooked up to my HD projector goes away and buys one! Amazing experience isn't it ?

68" is all I can manage in my office with the 8ft throw, but I can live with 68"

***** waving again...

Here's my home cinema screen - with around 83" diaganol 16:9 widescreen (circa 40" by 72") from my HD projector.

Comes complete with full blackout (not for this crap quality pic courtesy of my phone, so I could see what I was doing) perfectly arranged surround sound (as it's a dedicated room - the speakers go where they SHOULD go, not where the Mrs thinks they look pretty) and two leather recliners for my and Mrs No's viewing pleasure...

'Tis super - as and when we actually use it...
