This looks almost like a clone of Ratbags 1998 game Powerslide" now if Motor Storm can capture the immense fun in which Powerslide had this will be a classic game [ the number of LAN nights Powerslide caused me was bordering on being tragic ;-) ].
The graphics aren't bad, but I think after seeing the CGI movie last year I expected better, still with time on their hands it should improve even more. |

I just dont understand.
Motorstorm in the shape they showed it now actually looks like a fun game. Something I would like to play even. Sure they can work some more on the camera, make a in car view that's like PGR3 but better and use the mud more but like it is now it looked like a fun race. Heck, it looks just as fun as something like Mario Kart. Wonga: Sony has paid up twice now. Nintendo didnt have to because their rumble is a different method than the Immersion one and Microsoft bought a part of Immersion to stop their lawsuit.

My god that looks shit. Anyone ever played 4 Wheel Thunder on the Dreamcast? It looks exactly the same but with updated graphics. Generic pap.
Now if we're talking terrain deformation and physics, how about Rollcage 3? Rollcage, more than any other racer, deserves a next gen update. Making fucking skidmarks in the track is boring as hell - firing guided missiles into buildings and spread debris all over the track - yes please! I demand more Rollcage! |

looks great. not quite CGI great, but still better then PGR (oooh that could be a sore spot!). the physics, if they get it right, could be absolutely stunning. right now i'm very impressed by the depth of field smoke-and-mirrors style created by motion blur. clever lads, these evolutionaries.

aaah, bless the internet :)
"My god that looks shit. " followed by " looks great. " Personally, I think it MotorStorm has bags of potential...it'll be ace with more than 7 cars in it. It appears Sony dont learn - they have done the same pre-render movie sh*te again this year...the developers cant possibly live up to the slickly edited, non practical videos. hohum....what do I care....tis wii wii for me |

I wasn't referring solely to the graphics. By shit I mean it's got no style, no substance and the gameplay looks dreadfully generic and boring. If people above the age of 10 are seriously anticipating this game for its shiny specular maps and polygon counts then I suggest they step outside their front doors instead.

>"I don't know about you guys... but I have never seen a race in real life where you can deform the terrain so much that it will have any serious effect on the other vehicles"
Neither has the previewer, as it seems the technology hasn't been utilized yet. Which means in its current state, it's all hype. No offence to the evolution devs, tis a shame sony made you fail before you even started. |

Rubbish?
Wheres Xbox 360's deformation surfaces? Wheres Xbox 360's amazing physics? Wheres Xbox 360's ragdoll physics that actually have weight? Wheres Xbox 360's amazing AI? Don't get me wrong, I'll own a 360 in September and am looking foreward to it's games. But your kidding yourself if you think it's on the same level as PS3 so far. It will reach the same level but it's devs aren't exactly pushing the 360 yet. |

"But your kidding yourself if you think [the 360 is] on the same level as PS3 so far."
Really? To me GoW looks far better than anything Sony have shown on the PS3 thus far bar MGS4. And even that can be done on the 360. For a console that's supposedly able to blow the Xbox 360 out of the water (wasn't it "twice" as powerful as the 360 at the last E3?) that isn't very impressive. Where are all the games that look like MotorStorm and Killzone did last year? Where are the dual HDMI outputs? Didn't Phil Harrison say having two SKU's was a terrible idea because the 360 did it? Is the "tard" PS3 "true HD"? Where are all the 1080p games (and no, a PS2 game at 1080p does not count)? If you think this years E3 was anything but an unmitigated disaster for Sony then you're the one kidding yourself. MGS4 was the PS3's only saving grace. Everything else was a disappointment compared to the pie in the sky Sony promised last year. Heck, even the BBC and Radio 1 were saying how badly the PS3 did. That is NOT good publicity.

looks alot better then Excite Truck on the wii
--------------------------------------------------- for a machine that costs about $300/an Xbox360 more (at appr. $200 vs $500+), and touted by Sony to be God's gift to next-gen video games......it better look alot better!! |
