This game is gonna be MENTAL i am so looking forward to playing this.

LeonSKennedy4Life6309d ago

Calm down there, man. It looks pretty formula so far. "Mental"???

Hallucinate6309d ago

looks better then motorstorm..but not even close to as fun as motorstorm

Foxgod6309d ago

Motorstorm looks like a kids game compared to this.

Foxgod6309d ago

i did, at a stand at the media market, it wasnt as impressive as Fuel looks.

"Motorstorm looks like a kids game compared to this."

says the noob who's never even played it.

"i did, at a stand at the media market, it wasnt as impressive as Fuel looks."

riiiight, you lying sack o sh!t

Arnon6308d ago (Edited 6308d ago )

Please, set aside your moronic fanboyish ways and TELL ME why Motorstorm is so good. Besides the fact that it's on the PS3.

even in high quality setting, this looks like sh!t compared to the original. use c0ckpit cam and you have the best and rawest hardcore offroad experience to date. like most ps3 games, there's just an insane amount of stuff flying, mud, water, smoke, debris and you go thru soft vegetation at blazing speed.

in the 2nd video (colossus canyon) you can do the 2nd half of the race entirely in the river with a monster truck, jumping down cascades and rapids: in-f@ckin-sane. until you have experienced that hardcore with buddies online, you don't know D!CK about offroad racing games. and no pretty sunset is gonna change that.

dude, your douchebagness is cute but i got games to play
XD

Arnon6308d ago (Edited 6308d ago )

That's because off-road racing games are FAIL when in comparison to games such as Forza and Gran Turismo. Are you seriously praising Motorstorm? I mean, have you sank so low to the point that there's nothing else to praise? ROFL.

And also, you didn't tell me sh*t. All you showed me was some graphics. And I've played BOTH Motorstorm games. There is NOTHING, LITERALLY, NOTHING special about them. And I guarantee you that you cant tell me otherwise. Is Motorstorm pretty? Somewhat, yes.. is it anything to be praising? No, not really.

"Bu-bu-bu-but the weight and velocity of your vehicle determines if you can smash through overgrown vegetation!" So effing what? Is this supposed to be something to marvel at? The weight and velocity of ANY vehicle should be able to smash through some damn plants. It isn't difficult to program something like:

"Dirtbikes = Weak resistance to terrain"

"Monster Trucks = Strong resistance to terrain"

Could be good.
and lol at Hallucinate I gave you an agree for being so bold but you shouldn't have said a ps3 game because you're going to get disagrees and bad rep from killzone2flop and his kind.

Sasanova6309d ago

inferior to motor storm in every way.

bassturd6309d ago

ya looked like MotorStorm with Pure's racetracks. MotorStorm is awesome for it's tracks IMO.

stevenhiggster6309d ago

Looks like a cross between Motor Storm and Dirt, and that cant be a bad thing since they are both great games :-)

Leathersoup6309d ago

It's not inferior as far as size of environments ;)

Ju6308d ago

Its a different game. Its an "open world racer". You can driver wherever you want. MS (and MS2) looks better, though. Its all their Dirt and Grid tech pushed into open world. Not much better visuals, though.

Leathersoup6308d ago

@ Ju - Actually the open world has nothing to do with the DiRT or GRID technologies. The game is being developed by Asobo who were actually developing a game with a wide open world tech named Grand Raid Offroad back before 2005. That game, it seems, ended up becoming FUEL.

Ju6308d ago

Hm, OK. I like Dirt and Grid, BTW. Some car models look the same. Makes me wonder if they at least shared some assets (and code ??). I mean, it goes thru Codemasters after all.

Looks good, reminds me a bit like Smuggler Run. Hopefully they can iron out the framerate problems.

FUEL comes to Xbox Backwards Compatibility on January 10th

5,000 square miles of automotive action. Extreme racing on an epic scale.

FUEL comes to Xbox Backwards Compatibility on January 10th.

meatnormous2695d ago

Ace combat 6 is included with ac7 for preordering It, still isn't b/c even though it releases this month. I have been waiting for a long time to play it again.

lxeasy2695d ago

keep on games to BC love it

Shuckylad2695d ago

I’m still praying for the 360 version of the Dreamcast classic “under defeat” coming to backwards compatible, tho I know it’s never gonna happen.

I thought the open world in LA Noire was a bit of a waste, it was competent but pointless. If there was anything worth doing other than progressing the story I don't remember what it was.

Lynx02073203d ago

Agree, boring driving through the empty city between missions was final game-killer for me.

-Foxtrot3202d ago

High speed car chase...try to take short cut through someones back garden....indestructible fence

Goldby3202d ago

Must have built the fence out of the trees from GTA

clevernickname3202d ago

Completely agree. Apparently the open world in LA Noire was originally intended to be filled with characters that you could interact with and minor crimes to be solved but Team Bondi had such difficulty with the core game that the open world features were dropped just to get it finished.

Tross3202d ago

I see. Thankfully the core game is still great IMHO, aside from the occasional animation glitch. I just opted to let my partner drive after a while as traversing the LA of the 1940s as presented in the game got old. The best parts were the main missions anyways IMHO. I believe there's stuff that needs to be done in the city to get the platinum trophy, but I just didn't bother as it was just too tedious. It has been a long time though. First and foremost I still regard LA Noir as an underrated classic that falls just short of greatness, largely due to its open world.

MGS phantom pain's open world damaged the game a lot it wasn't necessary

Soulst0rmer3203d ago

MGSV's open world was not needed. I spent that time just snatching up goats and baddies. Felt empty

-Foxtrot3202d ago

Yeah it screamed Kojima wanting to make a new game but being stuck with MGS

It was a story which felt forced and wasn't needed.

Didn't help when the world didn't react to what you did, you could clear a base out from enemies then an hour later they'll be back at that base. At least let me clear the world out a bit. Then you have slow as shit vehicles and stupid fast travel options. I could go on...the fact it got worldwide praise and almost perfect scores baffle me.

ironcrow23863203d ago

I thought true crime LA was a pretty decent fun romp plagued only by the painful length of time it took to travel anywhere :(

AmUnRa3203d ago

I not agree that Fuel was a bad open world game. I played that game till dead. And also with my friends, whe loved it. I wish they make a Fuel game for PS4. I will buying it day one.

Top 10 Games Set in a Post-Apocalyptic Universe

GamersFTW writes: 'Games that give us a glimpse of the end of the world have always held appeal, even if they are bred from impossible scenarios. The need to survive and our drive to do anything to make that happen means that post-apocalyptic worlds will forever be high up on our list of things we want to play.'

I know it's not out yet, but Mad Max probably deserves an honourable mention at least, should be a post-apocalyptic staple if it lives up to expectation.

GamerGabs3947d ago

Enjoyed the range of games talked about here. Nice to see Horizon Zero Dawn on the list, I'm also really excited for the game and can't wait for more information on it.

Sciurus_vulgaris3946d ago

Having an unreleased game in a top ten list is very unprofessional, regardless of how promising the title is.

LoveSpuds3946d ago

The Last of Us takes top honours for me but I can totally understand why someone might choose Fallout 3, it really is an incredible game.

Nice article, fun to read :)
