Fatal Inertia EX

An exclusive PS3 demo of futuristic racer Fatal Inertia EX is available on the Playstation network (PSN) today. Structurally it looks similar to Wipeout, you pick your craft and get racing high speed over a number of gorgeous locations, arming yourself with plenty of destructive weapons, but unlike Wipeout with its same looking tracks and let’s face it, dodgy gameplay and weapons mechanics, Fatal Inertia gives you a wide range of different multi route racing environments including rainforests, massive glacier fields, and canyons. Get downloading that demo now and full support for motion controlling gameplay is included via the Sixaxis.
