Motorstorm 2 to feature Monster trucks and water

Scans are from OPM magazine. The first scan is hard to read. Says that the upcoming trailer will give hints to the new gameplay dynamics.

motorstorm is a rock solid game. I love racing games usually only buy 1 sim racer and 1 arcade type racer a yr. Would have been GT and burnout this yr or at least so i planned but looks like motorstorm will be filling in burnout shoes. Didnt like the direction the new burnout went. My only complaint with the original motorstorm was the lack of split screen. With that included i am sold

CG footage is apparently supposed to be shown. Suggesting the game is actually not as far as long as we thought. I say just wait and give us gameplay video

We should see it by Christmas is simply an estimate made by the magazine and not by sony or evolution studios. But yes this is BY FAR the best off road racer there is

I recently had to exchange my 80GB PS3 and got a temporary 40GB. What did I miss the most? Motorstorm. Instead, I got the Blu-ray edition of Spiderman 3. Lame.

So now I'm really anxious to try out Motorstorm 2... in lieu of my lost Motorstorm original.

1.9 - Hope they get it right this time...
not that Motorstorm was wrong, it just felt like a very meat and potatoes kind of racer. It's the little extras that really make a racer. Heck, after enjoying Burnout so much I think they should go open environment on the island. Can't wait to see what they do with that engine.

Looks like they'll be upping the Online Multiplayer.

"We also understand that the number of players supported by the online mode will be upped, and the other big addition seen in the video is the new chassis-crushing mosnter trucks, which join the roster of ATVs, bikes, and big rigs."

EDIT again:

it sounds like the trailer is going to be all CG... that sucks.

4.1 - Hints could also mean
small amounts of gameplay. It could also mean that they use the replay engine as well. I hope they don't just show CG. I really want to see something from this game. GT showed mostly replay clips of gameplay and very few inside the car view of actualy gameplay.

/cheers ... here's to hoping for something more then CG.

as always ...

I'll settle for CG as long as there are hints about what to expect.

When is Sony Gamers Day? I got a feeling that's when we'll get flooded with gameplay vids of various games to check out.

1. It wont look as good as the trailer.
2. This means the release date is further off than I had hoped.

OPM don't know the difference. Ingame assets, at higher resolution and increased AA is what you can expect. That it looks so good they presume it's CG is a good sign. You've yet to see an official racing trailer that doesn't have what I just said - including Dirt and GT5p.

And who thinks GT5 trailers are too good to be true? They might LOOK like CG, doesn't mean they are.

6.1 - They nailed mud in the first one
They nailed it so badly, that the tracks stayed there the whole game and actually affected the way the course feels while driving. Add over a year of polish and development and I'm sure they'll nail the water too.

6.2 - @fenderputty They sure did, and Uncharted has shores but this picture has a sandy BEACH!
Ocean Waves? Man, I hope! I already bought this game...lol This team is amazing. Motorstorm won official Racing Game of The Year at the 2007 AIAS. Over 3.33 million sold.

Monster Trucks are too slow. But i have to wait to see it in mootonnstorm 2.
Shut this user up Let user speak
fenderputty - 628 days 9 hours ago
13.1 - I'm wondering how they would make these things work in
motorstorm 2. Monster Trucks are not slow. They have drag racing engines in them and are made to drag race. They are NOT made to turn at all. They are made to go straight, over crap and made to do that quickly.

Myabe they'll make them crappy with mobility but great on the speed factor. I wonder how easy it will be to run people over in them as well.

Trailer is doubtful to be CG. OPM don't know sh"t, as proven by their sh-tty mock up

"The trailer I saw had a CG intro and a good couple of minutes of in-game footage. Unless Sony decided the footage wasn't good enough and pulled it back a week?

Doesn't make sense to me as it looked pretty good. Wait and see, I'd be surprised if they really don't show any gameplay as it did look pretty far along.

And sorry, but by now you guys should no better than to trust crappy Euro mags for news."

The first Motorstorm was killed by a lack of content/value. This one might just have it with the new racing types and location. But it needs splitscreen multiplayer badly. I think it's reported that it will have it and if so, this thing's going to freaking rock!
