Explosive racing action for Burnout fans

Split / Second: Velocity - [PlayStation 3] (Video Game)

Customer Review

The new game of "Pure" programmers is finally here.
I have it expects eagerly and I have to say - do not let me down.
But on the contrary.
The story is quickly told.
It participates in a fictional TV show and travels with 7 competitors for the victory.
There are 25 cars and they differ greatly from each other in some speed, drift behavior and robustness.
From sports to SUVs has much to offer.
So far nothing new.
The special thing about Split / Second is that, if you drive in the slipstream of the opponent or drifting through corners, a kind of energy bar charges which consists of three parts.
If you have recharged the energy bar, you can trigger "power plays".
In the simplest form explosive devices are detonated roadside and the opponents of the opponents.
If the bar is fully charged, you can even change the route.
And since it is really full of action: From collapsing towers up to exploding aircraft carriers much good stuff is here offered.
But watch out:
The power play can also be initiated so that there may be a catch itself.

This feature highlights Split / Second on other racing games.
It is God not a competitor for a simulation game like Gran Turismo 5 (if it because at some point appear ;-) times.
It is in the corner of Burnout Revenge or Motorstorm home.

A career mode with a total of five different types of race (normal race, survival etc.) is included in the game.
There are a total of 12 episodes, each with 6 of these races.
Thus, the campaign mode is not too short. Especially since the difficulty attracting from mid-career and you hardly can allow errors to.
If you will finish at least third in the final race, you advance to the next episode.
While the multiplayer has only two modes of play, but the satisfaction is of course greater when you put a human opponent with a powerplay to track.

Now to the technical side:
The graphics are packed with effects and explosions. Nevertheless, the game runs at a constant 30 frames per second and there are hardly any stuttering.
Gelgentliches tearing (tear image) Although occurs, but does not really bother.
The sound is rather unimpressive. A few nice sound effects and engine sounds fat on the whole, however.

I can Split / Second recommend any fan of arcade races who have also loved example MotorStorm.
In addition a good amount of action and you're off the post.
A split-screen mode is also integrated.
A really recommendable game for racing freaks.
I'm curious as Split / Second cuts the direct competitor Blur.
This game will end may appear.

Finally, my rating:

Graphics: 8.0 out of 10
Sound: 8.0 out of 10
Fun: 86 out of 100
