Motorstorm: Pacifc Rift demo UPDATED

... is availible from September 12th - if you have downloaded Qore, september episode.

You will be able to play single player and spilt-screen multiplayer, no online play though.
The track in the demo is named Rain God Spires, the sequel to Rain God Mesa of the original Motorstorm. The track is "an Air Zone track that takes you along a bumpy coastal mountain circuit with plenty of ups and downs to highlight the game's massive draw distance".

I'll write my impressions when I've tried it.

UPDATE: My toughts after trying the demo is that it's rather more of an expansion of Motorstorm than a sequel.
If you look at other sequels they improve gameplay, graphics, add more content and perhaps new game modes (and of course work on the story if it's a story based game).

Altough this is just a demo you can tell that there isn't much new besides a few new vehicles and the new tracks. The track in the demo looks good, but compared to Motorstorm, the landscape in the distance is really the most noticable thing that is improved in Motorstorm: Pacific Rift.

So, all in all, it's good. But not the WOW we were hoping for. So Motorstorm: Pacific Rift just fell a few places down on my "to get" list.
