MotorStorm: Pacific Rift - out NOW!

[Cyrus]

Oh, are you sure? I thought that meant any pilot who fell off their vehicle. But nice though :-p

Oh, I thought you meant those who've fell off and are just standing there but we were talking of different things then. :D I'm not sure if those count towards the trophy then.

[Smokey]

awsome pics drugo :) i really wish the game was in 1080 though :)

Yeah, I do mean you're just racing and suddenly you see a pilot walking on the track, not someone who just fell from a bike or quad or whatever. I think it's some kind of first MotorStorm trailer easter egg.

[LaLiLuLeLo]

This game is, clearly, gorgeous. So why did they even bother with such an ugly, ugly demo download?

[VG Aficionado]

I'm still wondering that to date. They sure lost sales.

I encountered the walking guy a couple more times today, hehe.

[masteratt]

I've watched the 2 day making of videos of this (Got it from PSN) and oh my, these guys are freakin' lucky!

Such a fun experience collecting info for this game.
They just went sightseeing for 3 days taking over 300 photos each day and they call that a 'job' lol.
Lucky bastards.

Telling ya, that demo will cost em a million sales....

[Segitz]

Yeah... and where are the demos for the other SCE* games? Resistance 2, LBP? Wipeout? Nothings there and there hasn't been a worthwhile demo on PSN for quite some weeks!

[VG Aficionado]

I guess they released such an old demo simply because that gave them more time to polish and finish the main game. Still, they should have released the press demos which were farther in development and were available at roughly the same time, but I guess they couldn't submit it soon enough or whatever. And they probably released one of the 3 "worst" tracks in the game. Such a shame, it doesn't make it justice at all.

[Segitz]

I just ordered MS2 :D

Won't be playing much until in a month (2 weeks off for christmas)... but still good deal in the bargain thread (33€ incl. shipping to Germany)

[VG Aficionado]

Oh, where? That's a really awesome price.

EDIT:

[AC!D]

Call me suprised. I didnt expect it this soon considering the tidal wave of great games Motorstorm was released with.

[Segitz]

But it totally deserves it... it is soo much better than MS1!!!

[VG Aficionado]

I was fearing that it would sell slower than that, I'm really glad it's doing well. It's truly deserved despite the unfair reviews.

[Smokey]

my mate snapped his disc in half because of the AI. and even to me its the most retarded AI ever hands down

[SuperLuigiBros]

^How is the AI retarded? Is it overly difficult or something?

I still havnt picked it up yet, but Im thinking Ill wait until it drops in price. The demo surely hasnt changed my mind or anything. I thought it was pretty good. It definitely looked nice. I guess when I finally pick up the actual game Ill see the difference.

[VG Aficionado]

The released game looks and feels much better than the demo, which was quite a joke and probably made them lose sales.

You are talking of MS1? I mean, as far as I can tell, MS2 isn't nearly as bad AI wise as MS1 is!

[Red]

Is it just me or are there some with the same problem like me? If you use your own music it#s very quiet.

[Sephiroth_VII]

You can turn up the volume of your own music easily from the in-game XMB. Just scroll to the top of the Music tab, there will be an icon which opens a simple control panel.

[VG Aficionado]

Play with the in-game music volume control and check whether the XMB player has volume settings. Or maybe it's your files.

That is physically impossible with a BluRay.

its just shit how they slow down in front of you CONSTANTLY. and crash in front of you CONSTANTLY
That is physically impossible with a BluRay.

well more bent it i think.

[LaLiLuLeLo]

Lol.:spit:

I was fearing that it would sell slower than that, I'm really glad it's doing well. It's truly deserved despite the unfair reviews.yeah I read many of them and although they said it improved on so many aspects, it was like it wasn't good enough to get a high score:huh: For the 2nd title, I would think they would be a lot more giving with the numbers...It's just a tad strange, as many of the reviews were good.

Maybe PS3 is judged on a higher scale because of all the smoke Sony blew in 05 lol..

I'm gonna get this on first price-drop.

[Smokey]

dont get me wrong its twice the game MS1 was in sheer size, graphics etc just dont like the AI

[VG Aficionado]

I'm gonna get this on first price-drop.

How about a £19.99 / 22.80 € price drop? (http://www.shopto.net/page.php?page=dettagli&codart=PS3MO03&n=MotorStorm%202%3A%20Pacific%20Rift&platform=PS3)

Did I tell you guys I got this? I find it hard to turn sometimes. Is there a trick to it? I guess thats a pretty crap question... What I mean is some games you dont have to turn because its more arcadey, sometimes you have to really slow down to make the turn, sometimes you handbrake turn...

Depends on the vehicle, but the trick I used is to turn first, then boost during my turn to help turn it faster.

[masteratt]

I just brake a bit then turn and when my nose is facing the track, I boost to get on the straight faster.

If it's a rough turn, I use the handbrake and again apply boost to get back to straight.

[Matt]

I hardly ever used the brake button on the first game because it didn't really do anything. Handbrake is much better.
