Evolution's Motorstorm: Apocalypse on sale from today in UK

Traditionally a game will release on a Friday in the UK, but racer Motorstorm: Apocalypse is anything but traditional given its delay over Japan’s earthquake.

The PS3 exclusive racer is now in the shops of old Blighty, where fans tear through a fictional earthquake stricken city. The rest of Europe gets it too.

The game was all set for release in Europe and the UK but then Sony decided against launching Motorstorm: Apocalypse as Japan was reeling from a horrific earthquake that struck the mainland of Honshu, followed by a devastating Tsunami.
