MX vs ATV for PS3 guilty of false advertising?

MaxConsole.net "MaxConsole reader Kevin has mailed in to let us know his frustrations regarding false advertising on MX vs ATV Untamed for the PS3. The Official website and GameStop advertise it as having a 12 player multiplayer but it only has 8 player multiplayer. He indicates that the game is just a 'crappy port' of the 360 version and the gas and break are supposed to be analog but they are not and the graphics are so grainy they may as well be in a PS2 game."

1 - AGAIN

Lazy DEVs. Burn Out Paradise City shows what happens when a game is coded for the PS3 first. GT5,Uncharted and RC show the PS3's power but unless its used right it means nothing.

Lazy devs, lazy devs, lazy devs, wait, wait, wait, 4d, blowing 360 games out from day one, Lair, unchartered AAA titles will sell millions of consoles, blah blah blah. STFU. HOw many copies of UT3, Uncharterd, Lair, Warhawk etc have been sold to even make the "NON LAZY" devs profitable?

Always excuses, since last 2 years ever since the launch of 360 we've been hearing B$ first from SOny then last year from the blind minions of sony.

You should thank these guys that they are atleast trying to make something for a Bluray player. Blame the fired architect of PS3 who made it so difficult to program.

I think it came out this week.

I think Rainbow (THQ) messed that up. A pity, because I think, both, the latest PSP and PS2 version where pretty good - especially visually, but the PS3 lacks a lot in the visual area - at least what I see from the demo.

Does a mailed in letter count as news here? Jeez, who the fvck approves this garbage? This game can be bad for all I care, but using a fvcking fan letter as a source is the same thing as using the words of a rambling fanboy on a forum as a news article. Reviews should be used as sources, not fan letters.

I rather liked earlier itterations of this title and looked forward to seeing how they had brought it to the new generation of machines.
I shouldn't have bothered, its exactly the same as the last gen versions of the game. but in HD. Very poor, weather it meets the stated specs or not...

10 - What a $hit game

This is honestly the worst game I have ever played, I don't know why anyone would ever buy it, thank Sony that we got to try the demo before it came out and see what a shambles it is. horrendous graphics + horrendous gameplay = no $

Well to be fair, the Mx vs. Atv series has sold extremely well. So obviously people care. there are plenty of motorcycle and atv riders to make it that way. the gamestop i went to sold out of ps3 and ps2 versions of the game in a matter of minutes. They are guilty of false advertising. I personally would rather play a game with 8 racers with no lag than have 12 and not be able to ride. HOWEVER. With even 1 other person racing with you online the opposing character rides at 3 fps. its impossible to race against anyone. My friends xbox is the same way. Total rubbish. I would expect a patch from any other game but for some reason i don't believe one is coming from thq and rainbow studios. They were too lazy to even give the same graphical detail to every track. Some are great, some are straight tosser.
