The new creatures you'll face are just as bizarre as in the original game, and they'll have unique "themes" to their madness. Torque's different rage-mode forms are in line with the biology-experiment-gone-wrong look of the other critters in the game, and the forms even sport their own weird touches. As with the previous series entry, the PlayStation 2 and Xbox versions are comparable. The performance on both platforms, in terms of frame rate, is practically identical at this point. The action is fast and basically smooth, with a bit of the expected work-in-progress frame-rate issues. The only rough spot to the action is the camera, which can be problematic in the thick of things. As far as audio goes, it sounds as though the game will feature music and voice that's at least on par with its predecessor, which was quite good.
