Motorstorm: Pacific Rift - split-screen gameplay, controls
Yesterday we had a chance to try out the split-screen gameplay at the Red Bull Air Race in the Motorstorm Tour truck.
The build we played was only 70% complete, but the split-screen was slick, fluid and fast. We noticed the controls have also had a facelift with the addition of features like a bunny-hop. These additional controls have been assigned to the d-pad, which will make for some interesting moments as you align your vehicle before attempting a new trick.
Despite the beta build, everything looked great and the action seemed as smooth as any other title, even in split-screen mode.
Here's our shaky-cam footage of the game along with a couple of photos of the Tour and the new controls... (click the images to zoom)

please make it horizontal split! vertial split sucks.
Here we go... people spent ages complaining about no split-screen, and now you're complaining about the aspect!
We're not sure what MS:PR will support, but vertical split-screen works well on the tracks that have huge jumps - they just wouldn't look as good in horizontal.
We've heard it does four-player, which will give you four regular aspect rectangles, but we think vertical is definitely better for two-player.
