You must remember Monster Jam, the game that brought monster truck action to a new level (and I do mean next-gen here!). Well... Activision has decided it is time to start working on a sequel and it promises to bring us a much better experience than the first game. However, its new title, Monster Jam: Urban Assault, as cool as it might sound, forgets about the most important gaming platforms: Xbox 360, PS3 and PCs. This means that we'll only get the havoc-wrecking title for PS2, Wii, PSP and Nintendo DS. And I truly don't understand why a company would lower its standards that much...

Anyway, as I've just said, the main feature of the new title will be taking the trucks onto the streets of a virtual city. As you can imagine, the level of destruction can reach never seen before heights, and Activision has prepared a brand new system to reward you. Demolishing every vehicle in sight will seem even more natural and exciting, since you will be allowed to control some of the most famous monster trucks in the world like Grave Digger, Maximum Destruction, Monster Mutt, El Toro Loco, Captain's Curse, and Blue Thunder.

"What would Monster Jam fans do if they could unleash the raw power of the world's biggest and baddest monster trucks in an urban setting, however they liked? Monster Jam: Urban Assault is our attempt to answer this question," said Dave Oxford, Activision Publishing. "We are confident Monster Jam fans and all gamers will enjoy doing things like crushing a NYC cab or smashing through one of London's famous double-decker buses."

Of course, if you're a pacifist fan of Monster Truck competitions, you will still be able to race or take part in freestyle competitions on stadiums, but we really don't understand how that would be fun. Also, we don't really understand why Activision brought in a host of minigames, too but we'll probably get to see for ourselves when the game gets released this fall.
