Fatal Inertia – PS3 – Preview

E3 2006 First Look Preview

Part of the excitement of
this year’s E3 showcase was the unveiling of the PS3 system. One of the games
that was shown on the system was by KOEI called Fatal Inertia, which looks like
it is patterned similar to the Wipeout series.

Fatal Inertia really
shows off the graphical power of the PS3, with one track in particular showing
water splashes and some really nice looking waterfalls complete with mist
effects. In addition, there were power-ups to collect to fire missiles at
enemies or shoot lasers and such, again … similar to the Wipeout series, and the
pops and small explosions of weapons on opponents vehicles looked really sharp.


For you fans of hovercar
racing / combat titles, this might be a good game to watch for on your PS3. As a
warning, it did run quite a bit slower than Wipeout or even Quantum Redshift …
but looked really good.
