Description

In the game, players will descend upon the MotorStorm Festival, a celebration of the alternative and extreme offroad racing culture. Throwing caution to the wind, players will take on a variety of racing fanatics and battle through chaotic, action-packed tracks to try and become the Festival champ.

Capitalizing on its pedigree in offroad racing, Evolution Studios has created a true next-generation gameplay experience that features smarter artificial intelligence (AI), real-time track deformation, fully destructible vehicles and environments, and stunningly detailed scenery. Tapping into the power of the PlayStation 3, MotorStorm will showcase cinematic effects such as motion blur, depth-of-field, and Hollywood-style “crash cams” that replay spectacular crash sequences during a race.

Features:
  • Attacking and Offensive Driving – Players must not only try to win the race but survive against the other racers. Combat-like racing takes center stage as the vehicles are the weapons.
  • Stunning Environments – MotorStorm features amazing scenic environments that capture some of America’s most recognizable desert landmarks with wide-open plains, harrowing cliff edges, and tight canyon sections.
  • Cutting-Edge Artificial Intelligence – The A.I. will be able to analyze the race and surroundings and react in the most realistic manner possible. Not only will the competition try to win the race at all costs, but the A.I. will react to situations realistically, such as locating the best routes and changing the level of driving aggression based on player actions.
  • Real-time Track Deformation – Players will never experience the same track twice as each vehicle will carve up the track in varying depths, making navigation of each lap different than the last.
  • Real-time Audio Manipulation – An entirely new in-game music experience where echo and reverb are filtered in, delivering a unique “live” music experience during each race.
  • PLAYSTATION 3 - Greater processing power on PlayStation 3 and Blu-ray technology enables more immersive visuals and sound effects in MotorStorm, heightening the chaos within each brutal race environment.

"Great fun"
One of the originals out on the PS3. You can't really go wrong with Motorstorm, fast paced, rock n' roll racing!

"Good game, could be better"
Yes it does take a while to load when choosing bikes/trucks/cars etc and while tracks load, But............other wise a wicked game to play, Online play is fun too. Shame is doesn`t have 2 player.

"Notsweetasman"
Check your spelling dude (guy underneth my speech thing)

ive played it a bit, and it (even though its a launch game) has better graphics that 360, i had one 360- it broke and i sold my other one just before it broke, it has good points and bad points, good points- it has a cool blur thing that makes it look awesome, bad points- it has super long load times for vehicals and tracks and like the dude down there / it does feel rushed but yet graphics are AWESOME

"LONG loading times"
Humm what can I say about this game,

It is quite good. The graphics are amazing, the explosion are fantastic. while I was excited to get this game there are quite a few problems with it. This game feels rushed. There are only 8 tracks but there a ton of bikes, cars, tracks, 4 by 4s to chose from.

The music is really good but they need more of it, the tracks are really fun but there are only 8 of them, there are quite a few bugs. You can easliy get caught in a respawn loop where you get stuck on a rock and them respawn only to die again.

Online play is fun but loading times for the cars is HORRIBLE. You spend more time in the lobby waiting to start a race than actully racing. You could easily spend 10 minutes waiting for a race then race for 2 min then be back in the lobby for another 10 minutes waiting for the next race.

There have also been a few problems with your race stats being reset and losing all records of you wins. I personally have yet to win a race but it is fun. I normally have one or two races then quite the game to play something else.

Also there is NO 2 player mode so you cant race your friend unless they have sepertae PS3 and race yo on line. There are also not many racing mode. Again this game could have been SO much better if they put more content in it, but what they do have is great it just needs MORE STUFF.

"A good reason to get a PS3"
This is one of the best games i have played in a long time. I'm not all that big on racing games but for sheer excitement, nothing compares to Motorstorm. You can't ask for more than its nerve shattering speed and fantastic visuals. Perfect.
