Gameplay video of one of my favourite PS3 games, Motorstorm Apocalypse. A niche game due to been delayed in the west and cancelled in Japan after the 2011 Tohoku earthquake (and the resulting Fukushima Daiichi disaster). Basically you are participating in motorcross races in a semi-abandoned city that is been destroyed by earthquakes. It is one of the craziest racing games in history, and its a pity its let down by the bad timing of its release.

On the days running up to Sunday 27th October 2013, the BBC and other UK news outlets overhyped an upcoming storm approaching the UK. They worded it in a way that it would destroy a huge part of the UK. As I think the BBC have degenerated from a reliable news source to just scaremongering like a crappy Tabloid, I decided to record this video as I figured this is what the newsroom figured my local resort of Cleethorpes would end up like.

Game (c)2011 Evolution Studios & Sony. Music by The Prodigy/Pendulum. Recorded using my USB video capture stick on my iMac, then mixed in iMovie.

Fun Fact 1: The music in the game sucks, I chose something else Electronica to avoid getting flames like in my first Wipeout video. This song sucks as well, but heard it while near a bar the other day, so its stuck in my head.
Fun Fact 2: I'm playing badly as there was a 250ms lag with the video input compared to playing it on my TV.
