I truly dont know of anyone who wouldnt like this game.

Graphics: 69487/5
Gameplay: Amazing, if a billbord falls down on another and creates a 45 degree angle, you can ramp off it.
Online Play: I haven't tried this yet, but I have very high expectations.
Replay Value: Very High

I also suggest that if you like to read reviews before buying games, that you get a 24 month subscription to GAMEINFORMER, or go to www.gameinformer.com

Man, what are you people thinking? This is just a PS2 game with updated graphics. The controls are HORRIBLE. The 6 axis gimmick really shows how weak it is here. Skip this game, it is a big waste of time. There are about 10,000 better racing games for the PS2 or xbox.

Best game for PS3 so far

Based on the demo, this is the best game available for the PS3. The graphics are incredible and the wrecks are great to watch (pieces of vehicle flying everywhere). Can't wait for the full version to come out...

I've been playing the demo for about a month now. Truly amazing. The graphics are a step up from the PS2, but the physics of the crashes is where the game really shines. Every crash swithches into instant slo-mo and each piece of debris as well as the driver bounce and interact with everything. One time, the driver of the motorcycle got thrown and got run over by a car, and then got caught up in the engine compartment of that car and got dragged 100 yds, only to come off and then get creamed by another car!. A definite must own!. The music is great as well.

i have one word of response. OMG!!!!

MOTORSTORM IS THE BEST ps3 GAME EVER TO HIT THE SHELVES, I'VE PLAYED THE DEMO AT TARGET AND BEST BUY. I COULD NOT STOP PLAYING IT! THE GRAPHICS ARE SUPERB. AND THE CARS ARE AWESOME! YOU CAN DRIVE RALLY CARS,[MY FAVORITE] BUGGYS, RACING TRUCKS, MX BIKES AND AND THE MIGHTY BIG RIGS!!
MY FAVORITE FEATURE IS YOU CAN CHOOSE A VEHICLE ON THE GRID BEFORE THE RACE STARTS. IF YOU HAVE A PS3 AND ARE LOOKING FOR A RACING GAME. THIS IS THE GAME FOR YOU!

Great graphics, shallow gameplay, no multiplayer, limited replay value

I had a lot of fun with the demo for the first hour but after that go bored with the one track. With only 8 tracks total in the release game I do not think there is a lot of replay value here, but it is definitely worth a rental and I still plan to do so. The vehicle physics in the demo were pretty weak IMO (the motorcyle was horrible and the buggy and truck average), but the demo track did not really require that much mastery of the handling (boost and e-brake do not require much skill).

After being a huge fan of Burnout I found the crashes very underwhelming and unsatisfying. The demo track is quite interesting the first few times you play it and I especially liked the jumbotron screen you pass and see a TV version of the ongoing gameplay. The different routes also had some nice risk and reward to them but I still felt the overall racing to be pretty shallow.

All in all not bad for a 1st gen game and the visuals are spectacular but my suggestion is rent before you buy so you can decide for yourself if the limited gameplay is enough for you.

Sorry - This Game Sucks

Playing the full game - not a demo - shows this game to be truly aweful. I'm no slouch at picking up driving games and have had almost no enjoyment out of this game so far. Your stuck initially with a pickup truck trying to race against rally, motocross and ATVs and frankly stand no chance. The controls are mushy, there's little to no feedback on what you are doing around the track and the odds of rolling or smashing are so high that actually winning is considered impossible.

I'd give this one a miss ladies and gents.

Would of been a great game

For all the hype of blu ray and how much data and bells and whistles the PS3 can do, I think this game fails to take advantage of the situation. I think this game could of been delayed to help make it more enjoyable. The lack of maps and lack of splitscreen multiplayer sets this game back, instead of forward (next gen). Playing online is great, but why did they bother taking out the offline multiplayer aspect? Would it have affected the game that badly? Also, yea, there are patches down the road the developer can put in, but we're not judging the game down the road, we're reviewing it as it is now. Although this game is graphically top notch, I think they forgot that gameplay and substance is where it's at, and not just graphics.

Awesome Game, don't listen to the Microsoft Fan boys

Everyone who says this game sucks without giving it any credit is definitely and without a doubt a microsoft xbox360 fan boy and basically just jelous because Motorstorm is truely amazing, and in my opinion takes graphics and physics to a completely different level. The truck handles awesome and the controls are wonderful. The graphics are beyond describable if you put this game on an HDTV. Microsoft fan boys will always continue to bash on PS3. Just ignore them. this game is awesome. I think this is the first game that shows the potential power of PS3. Buy it and enjoy!!!
