MotorStorm a PS3 Launch Title?

I think I was about the only person who paid any attention to the MotorStorm demo that Sony showed off when it debuted the PS3. Full motion graphics be damned, the clip showed off some truly serious graphical effects that truly scream "next-gen."

If early news sources are to be believed, it seems that MotorSport will be one of the launch titles to be released when the PS3 hits stores, hopefully later this year. According to Gamespot:

"On Evolution Studios' Web site, the company says that it is working on "a 'next-gen' PS3 launch title called MotorStorm" (emphasis added)."

Sounds good. With all of the hype surrounding some of Sony's other titles, it would be nice to complement them with some other titles that are working hard at delivering a quality experience.

This game better look like the trailer.



But, on the bright side, PS3 is looking like it's having a great launch.

» Hmm

So I take it there is no new news on this? Just an opinion? We knew they were already working on this buy them showing off the video.

I think its going to be sweet. I've been looking forward to it. Sure beats ATV Offroad Fury or ATV vs MX Unleashed.

You have to be kidding me if you think it is going to looks "exactly" like this....you are kidding me right?

huh? why not?

MGS 4 gave us enough proof.

FYI MGS4 did NOT look like this. This is CGI. MGS4 did not prove a damn thing.

mgs4 did not show gameplay. sure mgs4 will look amazing...but not like this.

watch it and tell me it wasn't real time.

» It is real time.

I have watched it. I never said it was NOT real time. I only said it wasn't gameplay. It just shows what MGS4 is capable of showing. Not how it will handle with AI and everything that makes up a game.



I'm sure it will be great.



But watch MGS4 and then watch the trailer for motorstorm. If you think they look alike...you need to get your eyes checked.

well, I didn't say it doesn't look alike, but looking at it's ability to render everything onscreen with all the armies and robots in MGS 4 has given me some confidence that PS3 will have enough power to make motorstorm possible.



But why would AI matter? what makes motor storm look great is the power of RSX chip, and AI is controlled by Cell CPU. they calculate different things and AI wouldn't matter in judging the grahpical possibility of PS3.

» One word. Frame rate.

All the videos of MGS4 do not show anyway of how motorstorm will be possible. MGS4 looks possible. Motor Storm does not.



AI affects Frame rate. Just like everything else. It has to process everything.

If AI for driving games can be done on PS1 and PS2, then AI for driving games can be done for PS3, without any slowdown. How hard is that to understand? It's not like they're making really complex and human like AI. The AI is still the same as every other driving game before. What is new is the graphics and the physics.

AI for MGS4 hopefully will be more complex then a driving game. You also have physics, objects, other models. Many things that affect the frame rate.



The AI won't effect motor storm, becauses it's not real time.



Seriously...how can you think motorstorm is real...look at it. IT looks nothing like the great vid of MGS4...nothing. So using that as a proof...seeing as kojima has nothing to do with this game...is just...fanboyism.
