Motorstorm for the PlayStation 3 is a horrible videogame. There are 6 tracks that repeat over and over. It is a rental at best and a waste of money at it's MSRP. I played Motorstorm on my Samsung 720p LCD HDTV(LNS2651D)with a Monster Cable S-video cable(PLG300)and the graphics did not impress or look next gen. I would suggest to anybody interested in the game to download the playable demo onto their PS3 console first or rent it!

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.
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.
This is the MOST boring game

I waited and waited for this game to come out after playing the demo and I am glad I rented it first. This is a major disappointment. The graphic was fine but the actual game playing was so boring. I was only able to play no more than an hour before I took it back to Block Buster. The graphic and the exploding effects got old after a while and I find the game a bit choppy and NOT as smooth as the demo (went back and played the demo and confirmed that it is much smoother). Now, Rachet & Clank game is the game to get.
Needs offline multiplayer

I have bought about a dozen titles now and this is my least favorite. My kids also played it for about 3 days, got bored with it, and havent played it since. Here are the issues:
1. Needs offline multiplayer. I want to race my kids. They want to race me and eachother. We arent buying a ps3 for each member of the family. The box said multiplayer. GIMME MUPLTIPLAYER ACTION with people i know.
2. The game is kind of repetitive.
3. The game is difficult, you will play a long time to win a single race and be able to advance to the next race. Takes longer than your interest will allow.
DONT BUY THIS GAME UNTIL OFFLINE MULTIPLAYER IS AVAILABLE. Then it may be worthwhile, otherwise too many better titles out there.
More Frustrating Than Fun

The game features incredible graphics and a wide variety of vehicles but that's about it. It is clear programmers took a lot of short cuts such as using the same tracks over and over and over... They also used the age old (and very unrealistic) trick of having the computer controlled vehicles vary their speed based on your success. The better you do, the better they do. So if you're struggling just stop, wait ten seconds and then you'll be able to catch the leaders. You can also get your vehicle stuck in several places with nothing in the programming to reset you. Your only option is to hold the boost button down until you explode. But by the time that happens, the competition is long gone. I've played a lot of great racing games... this isn't one of them.
Sony disappoints again - Not 12 players but only 1

The graphics are great and the play exceptional, but if you were looking to share the experience with anyone else, other than on-line, forget it. THIS IS A SINGLE PLAYER GAME, which is hard to believe in a racing game. Isn't the whole point of racing, to compete against someone else? Yes, you can compete on-line, but all of that side-by-side interaction is lost. I had waited for this release so that I could play side-by-side against my brothers and friends, but not with this title. Perhaps if EA Sports had released it, it would have lived up to its billing. Sorry Sony, you again deliver less than the hype.
I can't believe it!

I'm sorry but this is the first game I ever bought that was only one player! Sure you can play on the internet against eleven other people. But what happen to people having fun in the same room with two or four players having a blast splitscreen. What is the point of having four controller support if most games are online multyplayer! A racing game that does not support two or four player splitscreen is INSANE!!!! Don't get me wrong, the game is fairly good for single play. But that suffers too with so little tracks and you on some levels your forced to play only a certain vehicle type! While your computer racers have any vehicle they want! PS3 is going to suffer big time if it don't get any decent made games very soon. Except Resistance Fall of Man. Now thats a game! The Only one Made Right!
not too fun

el juego fue parte del combo para la PS3 80GB, asi que uno siempre le busca el lado positivo.
pero un juego que se jacta de soportar hasta 12 jugadores, como es posible que no sea capaz de simplemente dejar que dos controles se conecten y puedan jugar.
uno se pregunta si los diseñadores son inexpertos o simplemente no les importa ofrecer un buen producto para obligarlo a comprar otro. verdaderamente una decepcion.
en si el juego es bueno sino fuera por lo anterior y definitivamente no vale la pena comprarlo.
