Are we getting anything kind of like "Motorstorm"?

Burnout 5 would be the closest thing. But it's not even close to Motorstorm. :p
 
Don't believe Zenien, Motorstorm is a 360 exclusive, don't listen to her response to this either!
 
Motorstorm looked great at TGS. I wasn't particularly enthused previously, but the gameplay videos sold it to me.

Because it looks awesome.


'MOTORSTORM' IS BASICALLY A NEXT-GEN RIP-OFF OF 'SMUGGLER'S RUN', WHICH WAS ALSO A 'SONY' LAUNCH TITLE, FOR THE 'PS2' (AND ONE OF THE FEW GAMES I EVER LIKED FOR THE SYSTEM). OF COURSE, THAT GAME WAS ONE OF THE FIRST BY A LITTLE DEVELOPER BY THE NAME OF ROCKSTAR........WHICH OF COURSE IS NO LONGER IN THE GRASP OF 'SONY'S EXCLUSIVITY CRAP. WHO KNOWS? MAYBE THEY'LL REVIVE THE FRANCHISE. :huh:
IF NOT, THERE'S A GAME CALL 'GRAND RAID OFFROAD' THAT'S CURRENTLY ON HOLD, BUT COMING TO THE '360'. THERE'S ALSO THE 'COLLIN MCCRAE' FRANCHISE, AND 'TOCA'........BOTH OF WHICH WILL HAVE NEXT-GEN OFFERINGS. 'MOTORSTORM' LOOKS GREAT, BUT IT LIKELY WILL HAVE PRETTY SHALLOW GAMEPLAY.....AND ACCORDING TO SOME WHO PLAYED IT AT 'TGS', IT SUFFERS FROM SLUGGISH FRAMERATE AND INCONSISTENT AND UNREALISTIC PHYSICS, AT TIMES.

OH YEAH.....THERE'S A NEW 'STUNTMAN' GAME COMING TOO. :up:

Stuntman, Toca and Colin McRae are all multiplatform though.

As for the framerate, I never noticed it on the cam gameplay vids. The physics looked great too. I'm sure if there are any inconsistancies, they'll be few, and not enough to detract from the enjoyment of the game.

Smuggler's Run was fun. :)

SO WHAT'S YOUR POINT? HE WANTED TO KNOW IF ANYTHING SIMILAR TO 'MOTORSTORM' WOULD BE COMING TO THE '360' ; HE DIDN'T ASK ABOUT EXCLUSIVES. :dry:


'SR' WAS ONE OF THE BEST RACING GAMES OF LAST GEN. PERIOD. IT'S A DAMN SHAME THE SEQUEL SUCKED; THAT LIKELY KILLED THE FRANCHISE. BUT, YOU COULD SEE ELEMENTS OF IT IN THE DESERT PORTIONS OF 'GTA:SA'. :up:

Well, none of them were really alternatives either.

Colin McRae is you against the clock. Taking corners easy. Hit a post and you're not coming first. Not nearly as fun as Motorstorm looks, no other cars on the track, much narrower tighter tracks, and very different environments in general as opposed to the more general wilderness of Motorstorm.

Same with Toca, which is predominately on road too. Stuntman is an entirely different game.

I don't know much about the 360 exclusive, so I can't comment much on that.

Either way, I don't really think there's a true alternative to Motorstorm at the moment, and it's questionable whether they'll do it quite so well as Motorstorm looks to have done.

Motorstorm is clearly crap

Eh, i disagree. The game looks sick....still not getting a PS3 tho, at least not right away.
 
Well X06 is over and people still are. =|
 
X06 actually isn't over, Too Human is being shown off tomorrow I believe, as is Fable 2, and a few others, it lasts until tomorrow or Friday I believe :dry:
 
Too Human will make a huge comeback. They've fixed SO much since E3... and man, these guys are good.
