In his old life as a video game professional, Andrew Pfister got a chance to play Hydro Thunder Hurricane , a soggy racing game soon to be available on Xbox Live, at PAX East 2010. Here’s what he said: “Considering that Vector Unit creative director Matt Small and technical director Ralf Knoesel are big fans of water-based racing games (Small correctly identified the superior Wave Race title as the original Wave Race 64), they seem to be on the right track. In my quick lap, there was a good balance of ‘arcadey’ qualities like branching paths, jumps, and power-ups, and having to pay attention to competitor-generated wake and wave patterns to keep your racing line true and speed at maximum.” Check out the rest of the preview, right here.
