Motorstorm coming to XB360???

[Sephiroth_VII]

Watch the video (http://www.gametrailers.com/umwatcher.php?id=32189)

For the record, I doubt that this is real, but it's clearly made by someone who has access to the original code.

Motorstorm
published by: Sony Computer Entertainment
developed by: Evolution Studios (http://games.ign.com/objects/027/027205.html) (with a proud history of developing exclusively for Sony hardware)

Heh its not going to happen.

Though I guess if Gears of war was such a rumored title for the ps3 then why not this also ?

Sony really needs to keep MotorStorm exclusive if they're going to survive this next year sales wise. However, I can see MotorStorm being ported to 360. Why?

1: Everyone knows it; The motion sensing in MotorStorm is gimmicky as hell, and it doesnt fit well with the Sixaxis like ExciteTruck does for the Wiimote. The motion sensing controls feel very unresponsive and sloppy in the demo i played. Granted, it was indeed a demo.

2: Xbox Live already has a HUGE subscriber base, and proven numbers that people do indeed buy tons of stuff off Live. Evo could go the safe route with MotorStorm and easily retool it for Live ands the Marketplace.

3: With all the Media FUD, Evo could very well get nervous and make it a dual platform game. After all, this is a money driven industry, and Developers will go where the money is. (On that note, Sony is probably paying them assloads of cash to keep it exclusive, too)


Could Evo Studios jump on the switch-over bandwagon? Very possible, but at the same time it's highly unlikely.

Personally, I wanna see Sony lose every last exclusive. I wanna see em squirm! *take that, that's what you get for killing Sega!!*

lol :D

Sega sucked, just admit it.

And I find it really funny that not a single one of you clicked the link and actually watched it...

[GodMachine_Iridius_Dio]

I thought this was confirmed to be a joke?

[HeroOfTimeGCN]

They're Pre-renderings, so what?

[Sephiroth_VII]

It's clearly from inside Evolution. This isn't footage that the public should have access to.

Anyway, the motion sensing is supposed to be pretty good in the Jap retail version, so let's wait and see.

But I still doubt that they could fit it on one DVD-9.

Obviously missed the humor in what a 360 port would look like. Motorstorm is made by Evolution Studios, who is part of Sony Worldwide studios (the biggest game studio in the world). There's no way in hell MS would make it to 360. And I've played with the motion control, it's great! I do better with it on that off, I always nail 1st place with it on.

Considering MotorStorm is being published by SCEE and that it's their trademark as well (http://www.motorstorm.com/), it's not going anywhere. You can also look at this unofficial list of SCEWW (http://boardsus.playstation.com/playstation/board/message?board.id=pslounge&message.id=229480) games and you'll see that none of those titles are heading to non-Playstation systems. Only L.A Noire's situation is a bit unclear as of now.

lol :DWell, I'll assume you weren't serious at all about that, but frosty will just agree that Sega killed themselves, unfortunately. MegaCD (which I seriously considered buying back then) and 32x were utter failures. Saturn could have done much better but it didn't. And Dreamcast had a bright future until Sega couldn't handle the losses with their post-Megadrive/Genesis systems anymore.

Yessir - Exactly what I was pointing out. It's just a joke vid, making fun of the 360. There is no Motor Storm version arriving for the 360.

[Viper]

Are they sure that isn't a Wii port?

[Zer0-Sum]

The Microsoft guys are hitting the crack rocks up again way to heavy. It is just sad....

"Motorstorm is like Burnout minus the fun."
~Derrick Barra

When I first played Motorstorm I thought it was a tech demo. Because it seriously does feel like an effects demo that you would get with 3DMark08 or something. It's so... blah..

[IEatFriedPikmin]

is this suppose to be a hit on the 360?

[frosty]

Derrick, Motorstorm isn't even out. All you've played are demos, all of which have been improved upon. I have a blast every time I play even the kiosk demo version.

Pikmin, yes, it's a goofy joke, probably made by one of the devs.
