The Australian launch went ahead as planned on 17 March, but Sony announced further shipments of the game to that country would be halted in the wake of the disaster. The planned North American release date of 12 April 2011 was delayed by Sony who later confirmed new releases dates of 31 March 2011 in the UK and 3 May 2011 in North America.Show more

It's the black sheep of the main Motorstorm trilogy, but it absolutely deserves its place in the spotlight, still. Evolution Studios really tried to push the envelope to create a cinematic racer with tracks that have the environment change, creating or closing off paths. There was also the addition of a more story-centric campaign, which... well, good stories in games are hard enough to do without constraining them with a racing game.
It's not all bad, though - the added destruction offered here does create the most frenetic version of Motorstorm ever, which on its own is worth something, The online multiplayer was sophisticated, with perk cards and a TON of unlockable parts (unfortunately the only way to get them, too) for customisation. New vehicle classes also helped people forge their own unique identity on the track. Apocalypse is Motorstorm bouncing off the rev limiter, and while it creates noticeable strain, there's still a lot of fun to be had here.
Need for Speed: Underground 2Need For Speed Underground 2 takes place in Bayview after the events of Need for Speed: Underground. The prologue begins with the player driving in a Nissan Skyline R34 in Olympic City (though the racing scenes are actually in Bayview), the setting of NFS:UG. He then receives a race challenge from a rather ominous personality who offers him a spot on his crew, but "won't take 'no' for an answer." The player races off — despite Samantha's warnings — only to be ambushed by a mysterious driver in a rage that totals his Skyline. The driver, who has a unique scythe tattoo, makes a call confirming the accident, and the flashback fades out.Action
Crazy Taxi 3: High RollerAfter New York, what city could be screwy enough for a CRAZY TAXI game?

As with previous series installments, the object of the game is to collect as much fare money as possible by picking up and delivering passengers at record speeds. You'll have to create a few shortcuts of your won in order to win, and that will mean causing a few crashes and knocking down a few buildings.Open world Action Comedy Sandbox

ParaWorldThe game-concept is similar to "Age of Empires", which is a real-time strategy game. ParaWorld features food, wood, and stone as resources. Food can be picked from bushes, hunted from animals, fished from the sea, or farmed. Stone is located in limited deposits, and wood, cut from trees, is generally scattered throughout a map. Battles can occur on both land and sea.
The story takes place in a parallel dimension, where prehistoric life thrives alongside diverse human civilizations that are not technologically advanced. As a result, dinosaurs take the place of traditional wildlife and livestock, though some of the dinosaurs in-game are highly stylized and not necessarily scientifically accurate. Wild-living dinosaurs can be hunted for food, though some are of dangerous and aggressive species and will attack any player unit that wanders too close. Other prehistoric creatures make an appearance as well, for example woolly mammoths are used where other games might feature elephants.
