» MotorStorm Ultimate Strategy Guide Vs. Halo 3 CG Movie
Now, have your MotorStorm (either the demo or Japanese Single player version) ready. There’re 10 things you need to know in order to score well (against AI or human opponents).
1. It sounds like /moto-stom/... That’s what Phil Harrison who’s the boss of Sony UK has always said during interviews.
- an editor: (during a recent game show) What do you think about the prospect of the PS3 and Sony Co. as a whole?
- Phil guy: Moto-stom! Moto-stom! (Ya... He said only this one word, and said no comment for any more questions... When I watched this interview video, I thought this boss guy is finally cracked up...)
2. Don’t use motion sensing. It’s not implemented well since this is not the final version. (If you read Warhawk’s previews and Blazing Angel’s reviews, motion sensing’s responsiveness is perfect and excellent.)
3. Boost! It’s all about boost. If you know when to use it and when not to use it, you will score really well.
4. Push enemies away from behind; the one in front will lose control.
5. AI cars deliberately play slowly and poorly. The AI in M.S. adaptively changes their playing skills constantly.
6. There’re multiple courses. If you play riding on a big truck, then you can only choose the lower paths. The high-flying paths are always longer in terms of the distances; but the lower courses are more curved; so if you are very good then choose the more difficult but shorter and lower paths with a small bike.
7. It’s like playing First Person Killer games at much faster speed. If you’re good at other racing Sims like Project Gotham Racing 3, then you have to learn to play from the scratch. You have to drive your car as if you are a gentleman in other racing games. In M.S., you have to learn all those hundreds of bumps in the maps. There’re hidden and blocked short-cuts. You must know how to bash and crash to other cars.
8. Read reviews on ‘gamerankins.com’. The reviewers (previewers) say MotorStorm has the best graphics among all games on any platform.
9. The reviewers say the sound effects and the music are as good as the graphics.
10. About one year ago PC games ruled the world then X360 games ruled then PS3 games pwned them all. (Read a lot of reviews and see what the reviewers have said.)
- (chronologically) best graphics: FEAR (PC) -> Gears of War (X360) -> MotorStorm (PS3)
- (chronologically) technically best: FEAR (PC) -> Resistance: FoM (PS3) -> MotorStorm (PS3)
11. Games like Resistance, MotorStorm, Killzone 2 or Metal Gear Solid 4 are console selling games; People spend hundreds of dollars only to buy one of these games. Games like MotorStorm and the PlayStation 3 are almost synonyms. Games like Craps of War are NOT console selling games. People only and may buy (or mostly rent) GoW if and only if they have already made a fatal mistake of purchasing the X360 console before; however most X360 owners say GoW is actually the console selling game. They say this because they don’t know anything better than that Crapbox Two.
12. MotorStorm which doesn’t even have online modes received 9/10 review scores (check on gamerankings.com). Even though this early single player only Japanese version is a rushed, unfinished and unpolished product just like the Xbox and X360, its review score pwned all... What will be the score of the final version?
13. My friend has imported and played MotorStorm for a week then M.S. ate his soul; now he’s a zombie...

I come from UK and it would be nice if there was more than one of these centres in our country for the sick children.

» Sick Kids Love Video Games!
This is a very important Cause. It helps to keep the children in a frame of mind that is good for healing, I should know for I spent alot of time in hospital growing up. Its cool because Video games and Hospitals have been co-existing for years, probably alot longer than than you could imagine. When I was a sick kid in hospital some 25 years ago., I to was treated to the luxury of in hospital entertainment. Alot of people have heard this story of mine in threads and possibly other forums. But to make it short. I got to play one of the first Stand-Up copies of PONG http://www.videotopia.com/pong.jpg to come to North America (Canada included). I was very young and very sick. Maybe the sickest kid there. This Pong machine was going to the States somewhere, iI don't really remember that. It helped though. Video Games rock, giving them for free to sick kids ROCKS!!!! I'll try to help also.

Michael Kenniphaas was 17 years old, when acute lymphatic leukemia was diagnosed. Michael was admitted to the children’s ward 9b of the Medical Centre of the VU University of Amsterdam. He was to have treatment that would take 109 weeks. The first 8 months would be very stressful chemotherapy. After that they were to keep him under treatment for the rest of the 109 weeks. After the first 4 weeks the chemotherapy seemed to be working. Many hospital-admittances and streanuous times followed. Michael was a very happy and positive boy. He pulled everybody else through and was a wonderful guy for the ward. After 8 months the illness suddenly returned, just after he had gone through the last of the chemotherapy. For 10 weeks they tried to get the illness under control again. On April 16th 2005 the illness won and Michael passed away. But Michael had one more goal to reach.
Michael wanted to get them an internetconnection, by using an ADSL connection made available by the hospital and using routers for the kids that need them. That way these kids could freely be on MSN with their friends at home. And also the connection to the outside world would be much wider. Also they could send in their homework from their room at any given time of day or night. A large (very large) sum of money will be necessary to get all of this going. Michael would have thought this to be a wonderful gesture to achieve. We, the parents and all Michael’s friends want to achieve this goal for him and all the other children in the hospital.
Will you help us achieving Michael’s goals? Many seriously ill children will be very thankful. Their world in the children’s ward will grow by a good internet connection. Please sent your donation if this appeals to you! See our donation page!
For this cause we have opened a bankaccount at the ABN-bank In Alkmaar. Anyone send their donation to this account: Michael Kenniphaas 55 24 95 379 ABN te Alkmaar in Holland. (The Netherlands) please add: Kinderoncologische afdeling 9b VUmc (meaning: Childrens Cancer ward 9b at the VUmc hospital)
