You might remember last week we spent a long time playing MotorStorm and crashing a lot. It was kind of therapeutic. With no pressure to actually win anything, we just drove head first into boulders and entered a catatonic daze as our vehicle elegantly disintegrated before our glazed-over eyes.
With import copies of PS3's Formula One: Championship Edition arriving in the GamesRadar office, an elevated level of high-speed collision has become our new object of desire. It's simple really, F1 cars go faster, race on a narrower track and have more opponents - providing more opportunities for deliberate high-speed horseplay.
The results are nothing short of spectacular. Not least because of the amount of disruption you can cause by simply clipping another driver's wheels - even really gently. We even thought of cutting these pile-ups to some moving orchestral music, like Barber's Adagio for Strings, for effect. It didn't amount to more than a thought. Maybe we'll do it for the next instalment.
