MOTORSTORM splitscreen/offline Multiplayer PETITION

A new petition to sony and evolution games has being circulating the net from ps3 owners and motorstorm fans begging them to add a offline multiplayer patch for the game, fans wishing to vote can check out the petition by clicking on this link:

I personally think that if gamers want to make their petition be heard they got to go out and VOTE, it will only take 1 minute of their time.

they would already done it.
where is the power of :
CELL(poor A.I)
RSK(cross-platform games look better in 360)
BLUE-RAY(HS=5 horse gameplay way to go )

cr33ping_death6824d ago

boy you are a retard fanboy arent you.

masterg6824d ago

Of course it can handle it you jackass.
We have seen it in tons of games. Problem with this one is that they would have to recode it almost from the start to make it possible.

Their first PS3 game = rookie mistakes. (even though its a hell of a great game)

chitown6824d ago

GET a life bro. go on get out of ur moms basement and go do something productive with your life intstead of bashing on the ps3 like a little girl

J@D6824d ago

Angel... u need to get a life or a PS3 ASAP ^_^

ARog346824d ago

Yeah, plz, this is not a place to bash... I can tell you the main reason they had taken it out. For one, yes, split-screen was to be added into Motorstorm. The devs decided to take it out (IMO, a good idea) because of the bad framerate issues that had taken place. It wouldn't have ran smooth enough and I wouldn't have wanted to play a weak, choppy 2p race... that'd wouldn't have been fun for it would be broken.

and btw, I believe you should go to school. The spelling is horrendous.

ngg123456824d ago

I'm pretty sure ps3 should be able to.

I actually play a lot with friends. Usually when I play a videogame, it's in the same room with my buds having a good time because I just don't have all that much time for games that are too deep (I make exceptions of course for titans like BioShock or Metroid Prime 3.)

But for Motorstorm I just didn't see the appeal. For what it's worth, Warhawk is more fun anyway, and the fact that it has the most beautifully integrated splitscreen I've ever seen in a video game helps. A lot.

Omegasyde6824d ago (Edited 6824d ago )

True but what if they added multiplayer and the race was only between the 2 cars (player 1 and 2?). Warhawk was suited for multiplayer, but this game should be too. Why can't games be a bit of everything? Heck I am paying 60 dollars instead of $40 or $50 with last gen's games.

I want my money's worth, don't you?

But you also got to remember splitscreen for a racer should be the "norm" by now like having First Person Shooters having Co-op or some kind of deathmatch.

It seems like the new norm is Online while abandoning splitscreen.

Screw that, this is a new generation of consoles that should have both by now. No excuse, like Certain sports games not running at 60 frames per second or Role playing games having no decent save system. Heck even games now (bioshock and warhawk) are shipped with HUGE glitches.

Double U - Tee - Eph.

Maddens Raiders6824d ago

Motorstorm plays fine the way it is now. Why would you guys want to squeeze this beautiful game into an ugly little space or a god-awful side by side?

Hey #1:

InMyOpinion6824d ago

Because, unlike you, we have offline friends. You know, real people. Bottom line, if a game has online multiplayer it should also have offline multiplayer. Period.

FullyLoaded4206824d ago

Maddens Raiders just got TEABAGGED by JENZO!!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!

Oh man, Bubbles and a Fat Joint for you homey!!

Bathyj6824d ago

Bring it on. I've probably played more hours on MarioKart64 and Perfect Dark 64 than any other games. The split screen rocked and especially in this day and age with widescreen 50" tv loosing a bit of size isn't that big a trade off to race your mates in the same room as you.

Warhawk, showing the way.

Ri0tSquad6824d ago

Don't get me wrong this game is great but they seriously rushed the hell out of this game.

PlayStation 3 Games That Desperately Need a PS5 Remaster

The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.

Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!

Rude-ro796d ago

I played killzone 3 in 3d and it really changed the game per being immersive.
In vr, that would be even more awesome.

darthv72796d ago

Funny you mention that... my son wanted to play some PS3 games in 3d on my PS tv and he was blown away by how good KZ3 was. It really was a great addition to the game. Im surprised there have not been more 3d games from that era being ported to the PSVR/VR2.

_SilverHawk_796d ago

resistance 1-3, killzone 1-3, uncharted 1-3, uncharted golden abyss, folklore, socom 4 , motorstorm, twisted metal, MAG, heavenly sword

Cacabunga796d ago

Killzone 2+3
Sly Thieves in Time
Crack in Time
God of War Ascension
Motorstorm
Modnation racer
Infamous 1+2

Profchaos796d ago (Edited 796d ago )

Killzone trilogy in VR would be amazing bonus points if they offer shadow fall.

There was a psvr1 Killzone project that supermassive was working on at one stage which wasn't up to scratch and Sony brand it back in house I was hoping we would see that on psvr2 eventually.

Personally I'd love to see some more love or acknowledgement of psvr2 from Sony in general it was a expensive headset and Sony barely acknowledge it's existence

seanpitt23796d ago

The amount of work needed to remaster these games wouldn't be beneficial on a financial and business sense.. MGS4 would probably be the best bet as it would need the least amount of work!

Iceball2000796d ago

YEAAASSSSS! I miss this franchise and wanna play it so bad again.

Father__Merrin796d ago

The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer

InUrFoxHole796d ago

The resistance series is str8 trash to me. Socom 3 I would welcome. Or killzone MP.

Marcus Fenix796d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel1989796d ago

That's what Bungie should make, Ill keep saying it until it happens

1Victor796d ago (Edited 796d ago )

Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱

Michiel1989796d ago

Resistance was the best co-op fps I ever played after L4D2

Revisiting PS3 classic Motorstorm - The driving celebration that should never have ended

Digital Foundry : Evolution Studios' Motorstorm is one of the first, finest and most fondly remembered of launch titles for PlayStation 3. It's a release designed to answer the question posed by each new console generation: what makes a game 'next-gen'? With its robust physics engine and massive tracks, Motorstorm serves up a bold affirmative answer to this question, delivering an experience that could never have existed on prior console hardware. At the same time, the path to release was fraught with challenges that almost serve as a microcosm of the PlayStation 3 release situation itself. It was a success, however, with a trilogy of PS3 releases, plus PSP, Vita and even PS2 off-shoots.

After Driveclub and Onrush, the dev team will now contribute to and assist with the development of the upcoming NFS.

darthv721454d ago

I would give anything to have a full compilation of the series remastered to play on PS5 with full DS support. Feeling the deformation of the tracks as you race in pacific rift or the snow laden tracks in arctic edge... that would be sweet.

MastaMold1454d ago (Edited 1454d ago )

Yes MotorStorm World Tour for PS5 damn it Sony make it. The Desert, Pacific Islands, The Arctic and City races.

Army_of_Darkness1454d ago

Motorstorm Pacific rift was awesome! I think MotorStorm: Apocalypse was what killed the franchise due to its change of direction...

darthv721454d ago

Pacific rift is the best (IMO) but apocalypse wasnt what killed it. At least it was still somewhat of a MS game. The RC one is really a departure from the norm. None of which were bad as they were all fun in their own ways.

Army_of_Darkness1454d ago

Lol! I completely forgot about the RC version.

Knushwood Butt1454d ago (Edited 1454d ago )

RC was a blast to play on Vita.

Apocalypse had unfortunate timing due to the 3/11 earthquake in Japan. I never got around to playing that one.

Evolution had some harsh experiences. I had Driveclub from launch and the server issues weren't that bad and certainly didn't prevent you from enjoying the game.

ABizzel11454d ago

Agree Apocalypse didn't kill it, it's just racing games in general just became less popular nearing the end of the PS360 generation as it was flooded with medicore racers and the extremely niche but enjoyable ones like Motorstorm, Blur, Spilt Second, and Forza Horizon (still going strong, but actual sales have been decent fro a racer, and often expanded by console bundles and now GamePass)

But since the PS4/XBO generation had a lack of arcade racers, it's a prime time for games like this to come back.

I've said for the longest, the additional income of PS+ Premium should be used for, Remastering, Remaking, or recreating sequels / spinoffs of classic PS franchises to launch into the service. Many PS3 games fit this mold of looking good enough that a quick remaster to 4K@60 with better texture maps would give them near PS4 quality.

Remasters: A game like Motorstorm look good enough where it can simply be remastered in 4K @ 60fps, and have better textures for mud, mountains/rock structures, and vehicles and it would hold up WELL.

Remakes: Games like Legend of Dragoon, Warhawk (could be a simple remaster also), and so many others could get remakes like FF7.

Recreates: Shorter sequels/prequels/spin-offs to other classic PS IPs like how Infamous First Light / Blood Festival (BF was a highly underrated vampire game) and Uncharted Lost Legacy. Give spin-offs to things like Heavenly Sword, The Order 1886 (1786 or 1986), Puppeteer, Tokyo Jungle, and more.

ABizzel11454d ago (Edited 1454d ago )

This is also why Sone NEEDS to get PS3 emulation up and running. It gets rid of all the PS3 server farms and replaces it with software that can work on EVERY future PS console with updated coding.

At bare minimum emulation could double the resolution and framerates of all PS3 games making many of them 1440p@60fps without any real work, and a few 4k@60fps.

As for full-on remakes again updating to 4K@60fps with completely revamped textures, and an option for 1440p@60fps with global illumination can make these games shine with a new lease on life.

Also I'm still waiting on my DriveClub 1440p@60fps update 😭

ChiefofLoliPolice1453d ago

Apocalypse was actually pretty good i don't think that's what killed the series. PR was the best though.

I was late to PS3 and Pacific Rift was the first game I picked up on it... huge miss to not have one on PS4, hope it gets some love on PS5 (as well as Ridge Racer and Wipeout).

akurtz1454d ago

Only driving game i enjoyed.

darkrider1454d ago

Really cool franchise. It's shame it ended

RosweeSon1454d ago

Never really got into it myself I remember getting it with ps3 and being a bit underwhelmed I preferred the RC version they did for vita 🙌🏻🤣

EvertonFC1454d ago

Going from ps2 to ps3 was not underwhelming when I first played motorstorm, it was like nothing we'd ever seen before ?

RosweeSon1454d ago (Edited 1454d ago )

Each to their own didn’t like it myself. 🤷🏻‍♂️✌🏻 ;I didn’t say going from ps2/3 was underwhelming just the launch game motorstorm, bit different but hey ho.

PS3 was a slow burner for me it’s my least favourite Sony console, maybe as I had my 360 as my main at that point but yeah wasn’t impressed with first couple of years to be honest but that’s just me. Once uncharted MGS4 GT5 Last of us GTA4/5 dropped sure but launch games weren’t all that imo. Resistance was alright wasn’t as big a change as ps4 or even now ps5 for me. PS3 took out rumble and basically went HD it’s wasn’t exactly a revolutionary start. 🤷🏻‍♂️✌🏻 ;

MotorStorm - 15 Years as PlayStation's Finest Arcade Racer

MotorStorm debuted on PlayStation 3 15 years ago today (in Europe), and remains one of the format's best alternative racing games.

wolf5811504d ago (Edited 1504d ago )

Ahhh motorstorm....i still have the reveal trailer back in my mind from e3 2006 or 5 i think...ps3 never manage to par the gameplay trailer back then but the game especially the first one for me was AWESOME....I m sure that ps5 is capable to give us now this kind of fidelity....for me motorstorm and daytona usa 2 in arcades still is my favorites arcade racer ever....

nevin11504d ago

Pacific Rift still looks good graphically speaking.

I also thought Artic Edge(PSP) was solid.

franwex1504d ago

I own the game on PS3, but I still play the demo to this day.

Fishy Fingers1504d ago

Bought the 60gb PS3 with motorstorm and my first 720p/1080i TV on the release day, great memories. Oh the mud!

Real shame this franchise fell by the wayside. With todays tech it would/could be such a great open world arcade racer.

darthv721504d ago

I got the 80gb Motorstorm bundle. Still have it. I still play Apocalypse on my 3D display.

Newmanator1504d ago

The wet mud effects used to tickle my pickle for sure.

Chaos_Order1504d ago (Edited 1504d ago )

The first Motorstorm was good, but Pacific Rift blew it out of the water IMO. Still one of my favourite arcade racing games of all time. I also really liked Apocalypse, despite the Supercars and Superbikes being OP compared with the other vehicle classes.

Father__Merrin1504d ago

Mororatoem 1 was excellent the visuals and everything had a really good vibe about it. If they remade that with a festival type open world... If only
