Motorstorm 2: a new screen

Motorstorm 2 unfolds today with a new screenshot... The software also looks much more comprehensive fashion with a multiplayer online game can accommodate up to sixteen participants as well as a brand new mode four players in split screen just like a Mario Kart.

Idiot disagreer again just jealous of exclusives. Kinda sad. Its not like motorstorm is a system seller or anything. Its just the best off road racer available thats all.

Lets not jump into conclusions here just yet. I'm on the same boat as you; I too have my doubts about the picture being anything you'd find in a game. But there is nothing indicating that it is an in-game, CGI, cut scene, or concept art screen shot.

I think that when the appropriate pictures come out (ya know, the ones where detailed information ABOUT the shot is given?), i'll start getting hyped.

It may just be motion blur or on-screen filters doing their job. In some places, Crysis looks like a painted concept picture.

I think it's taken from the pre-rendered trailer shown a few weeks ago. Some people never learn how to spot the difference =) Just look at the Resistance 2 teaser. I bet more than a few N4G members believe it's in-game.

on RFOM2

It`s very possible it`s in-game engine. Insomniac rarely does CG cut scenes.

I see a low quality picture of a motion blur still, I can't see if it's art or a pic, so, don't jump on conclusions.

That might be true. But Sony usually promote their games with CG trailers, or target renders if you will. Motorstorm, Drakes Fortune, Killzone 2, Motorstorm 2. I might have missed some. Not sure if Lair and Heavenly sword had them as well.

Anti-aliasing, animations and motion blur look different when it's pre-rendered. Anyone with a trained eye can see if it's fake or in-game.

The Resistance 2 teaser didn't look anything like the screens we have been shown earlier, which is kinda weird if it was in-engine/in-game.
Also, at the end of the teaser they announced a date for when they would show gameplay footage. Why would they do that if the teaser was in-game?

The treaser could of easily been in-game/engine ASSETS, when they say "in-game" trailer I believe they mean actual gameplay, with someone playing it.

Anyway, this is wildly off topic. Motorstorm will be great, not sure about that screen though. Looks more like concept to me, the only thing that looks "quite right" for me is the HDR on the jeeps bonnet.

yes, Sony usally does ......but Insomniac and R* ****DONT****

It`s not like someone is playing it. But seeing how Insomniac has progress thus far, it`s not unbelievable that, that`s what it`ll look like. Bluray and the CELL are starting to flex their muscle. This is Insomniacs 3rd game on the PS3, people didn`t believe MGS4 would look like the trailers.......but it`s does. Because they also always use in-engine cutscenes/trailers. The PS3 is starting to show it`s strenghts vs. the 360`s weaknesses, w/ exclusive titles. Jenzo I know your a gamer not a fanboy......It`s time to get the PS3, my friend.

Resistance 2 teaser trailer is NOT "in-game" footage, its "real-time" footage, not a CGI video.
And you can tell that its real-time if you look closely.
You can see the aliasing applied in the bridge, and you can see the round head is NOT perfectly smooth, you can see some little sharp corners like polygons. Same with that yellow round shape on the boat at the bottom left corner of the screen, not a perfect round shape object.

Don't confuse "in-game" with "real-time".
In-Game = In gameplay footage.
Real-Time = Real Graphics engine.

Let's wait and see what the actual in-game graphics look like then =)
That's what matters in the end, isn't it?

I bet it will be pretty, but I doubt it will look like the teaser. More like the screens shown earlier.

Mario kart is way more fun than this crap.

3.1 - I would agree and disagree
Mariokart is awsome when you have friends over, but alone its just no fun. Motorstorm havent had the splitscreen option so i cant say anything on that part, but alone it´s a great game..

Well, have you ever considered that some of us like to play the same old recycled crap over and over again? Huh? Have you, Bazookajoe 83?

Mario cart is really fun when you have friends over but other than that it can get boring.

Top screen is just artwork. Is it just me or does Motorstorm 2 look really iffy so far?

7 - The difference between in-game and gameplay
When will people start realizing this! Ratchet and Clanks cutscenes were in-game, but were not gameplay. The same goes for RFOM's cutscenes. They use in-game assets, and the reason they are not called GAMEPLAY is because they ARE NOT BEING PLAYED.

They boldly stated when they debuted the Motorstorm 2 trailer that it WAS CGI, which means this screenshot is more than likely just a capture from that footage. Did the first Motorstorm get close to its target footage? Pretty dang close.

I love it when the Halo 3 trailer debuted, everybody was like OMFG that's gameplay and it turned out to be total bullshot. Yet when a Sony-published game by a developer that has NEVER used CGI releases an unbelievable trailer, everybody says its CGI.

Yes, when Motorstorm and Killzone debuted, they were not in-game because they were actually target footage. The first Resistance never had a CGI trailer, nor did Uncharted. Will actual gameplay be that detailed? Probably not, actual gameplay never is because resources have to be given to AI, physics, etc.

Look at MGS4. Every single trailer and video taken has all been in-game but not necessarily gameplay. Can you tell a difference between the gameplay and the cutscenes? Barely. The same will be said with RFOM2. It is Insomniac's 3rd game on the system in 2 years, more than any other developer on the PS3 and maybe even the 360. Why wouldn't or couldn't it look like this?

i took a look and really, this is concept art, if you look close at the bottom picture, there is no tired tracks on the front tire...blurry or not, you should see SOME tire tracks..then again, its just opinion
