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.

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 redefined an already great game. Its addition of stellar new features (like Create-A-Park), and great game-play tweaks (the manual maneuver will be copied for years to come) made it the best installment in a killer series of games. Anyone who has ever skated the Philadelphia level will agree -- this game is a masterpiece of level design. Hell, it's a masterpiece all around. There isn't a bad park or dull moment, just pure gaming nirvana!

Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit 2
Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit 2The Need for Speed series returns, this time reverting back to the 'chase' arcade experience instead of a racing simulation. Top speed racing is the name of the game, where you must outchase not just the opposing drivers, but the cops. Choose from a selection of today's (and yesterday's) top sports cars, including the Ferrari F50, Porsche 911 and a range from the likes of Ford, Corvette, BMW, Lotus, Mercedes, Aston Martin, the McLaren F1 and a lot more. The competitive race mode allows you to take on other drivers and beat them to the line. A selection of tracks allows you to not only dodge incoming traffic, but perform deadly jumps and stunts to receive points. These points, combined with the points recieved from your finishing position, can unlock new cars and tracks. The Hot Pursuit mode combines all the major elements of the competitive mode with the chance to out run the cops. They will throw everything at you to try and stop you, including running you off the road, setting up road blocks and unleashing an attack helicopter equiped with missiles. Three busts by the cops ends the race.
