Sony UK have today revealed a few new dates for the latest offerings bound for the PS3 Store, with MotorStorm's freely downloadable 'Time Attack' mode set for release this Friday - June 15th. As well as ushering in a new way to play the game, the online update also delivers a number of tweaks and enhancements, bolstering stability and the interface to boot.
Then there's Calling All Cars!, which is due out on Friday June 22nd, and will cost 4.99 GBP or 7.99 Euro. David Jaffe's latest is something of a departure from the world of Greek Gods and war, instead charging the player with racing around the streets, rounding up the low-lifes en masse.
Super Stardust HD is the last new arrival confirmed by the Big S, arriving (again on a Friday) come June 29th. An Asteroids-esque puzzle-blaster thing is order of the day - and from the HD in the title you can derive that while the gameplay may be retrograde the visuals certainly won't be. More on all this soon.
The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.
Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!
The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer
Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱
Digital Foundry : Evolution Studios' Motorstorm is one of the first, finest and most fondly remembered of launch titles for PlayStation 3. It's a release designed to answer the question posed by each new console generation: what makes a game 'next-gen'? With its robust physics engine and massive tracks, Motorstorm serves up a bold affirmative answer to this question, delivering an experience that could never have existed on prior console hardware. At the same time, the path to release was fraught with challenges that almost serve as a microcosm of the PlayStation 3 release situation itself. It was a success, however, with a trilogy of PS3 releases, plus PSP, Vita and even PS2 off-shoots.
After Driveclub and Onrush, the dev team will now contribute to and assist with the development of the upcoming NFS.
Never really got into it myself I remember getting it with ps3 and being a bit underwhelmed I preferred the RC version they did for vita 🙌🏻🤣
MotorStorm debuted on PlayStation 3 15 years ago today (in Europe), and remains one of the format's best alternative racing games.
Ahhh motorstorm....i still have the reveal trailer back in my mind from e3 2006 or 5 i think...ps3 never manage to par the gameplay trailer back then but the game especially the first one for me was AWESOME....I m sure that ps5 is capable to give us now this kind of fidelity....for me motorstorm and daytona usa 2 in arcades still is my favorites arcade racer ever....
Bought the 60gb PS3 with motorstorm and my first 720p/1080i TV on the release day, great memories. Oh the mud!
Real shame this franchise fell by the wayside. With todays tech it would/could be such a great open world arcade racer.
The first Motorstorm was good, but Pacific Rift blew it out of the water IMO. Still one of my favourite arcade racing games of all time. I also really liked Apocalypse, despite the Supercars and Superbikes being OP compared with the other vehicle classes.
Mororatoem 1 was excellent the visuals and everything had a really good vibe about it. If they remade that with a festival type open world... If only
250mb WOW! I downloaded it and I have to say a bargain for £1.99 with online play!!!
Microsoft learn a lesson here! Stop ripping us off with over price rubbish!! I think I paid double for MK3 on the 360 marketplace.
What I find weird is how you download something from the PSN and then you have to 'install' it.
Edit: @Handshady no I disagree, look at MK3 on the 360 its less than 50mb thats in HD and online play.
MK2 on PS3 online play and in HD 250mb it doesnt make sense - and on top of that you then have to install it so its even bigger is thats what you are trying to say???
Pure madness.
Kudos to Sony on not raising the price for Europeans. What kind of strange world is this were they pay the same as me for Calling all Cars?
Yeah and that little install bubble is a bit weird.
The files are downloaded from PSN Compressed to save time for you.
When they are installing, they are really uncompressing.
I know this because I am the guru of all Playstation knowledge. I also have common sense.
