some people say that motorstorm was rated too low on gamespot but the rating was ok. motorstorm has great graphics and also unbeatable animations (especially crash animations) but the gameplay was forgotten a bit, it isn't bad or good, it's average.

I guess maybe this game is not for everyone, but I still don't really understand what people were looking for in this game...to me, it's the most enjoyable racer I've played in years, there's nothing else quite like it. Granted, it does lack some options and modes that would have fleshed it out a bit, but I still don't understand all the negativity...what were you looking for? To me, the main point is that it is FUN, and that's really all that matters to me. Every time I play, Motorstorm never fails to put a smile on my face. To each his own, I guess!

Along with resistance fall of man, I think that motorstorm makes a great launch title (motorstorm was a european PS3 launch title). Its not particularly the best we can expect from the next gen, but its a very nice introduction to the console's potential.

Think of it as the Wii sports for the PS3.

Well all i can say is. No matter what rating it has, 800.000 people that own it can't all of them be wrong.

Thats it? im pretty sure its a greater number than 800,000. What I know is that here in europe 2/3 of people who bought a ps3 at launch bought it with Motorstorm, and now the PS3 has passed the 1million sales mark here in Europe alone.

I think part of people's disappointment with the game also comes from when it was released...PS3 owners were CLAMORING for another killer app, and people built up the game too much, it couldn't possibly live up to people's hopes and expectatons...I mean, I think it's tough to make a racer a "killer app" in some ways, and I wouldn't necessarily consider it to be one, but it's a great game nonetheless...

The GS review said the gameplay was top notch. It received the score cause of its lasting appeal(8 tracks, no split-screen, and weak single player mode).

The gameplay is simply awesome, not average and it clearly deserves a higher score. However, it doesn't really matter and people are entitled to their opinions.

Im beginning to think that GameSpot is prevy to glitzy menus and features; motorstorm doesn't have those. However the background graphics are far an away the best Ive ever seen in a racer, quite a departure from the drab backgrounds and asphalt tracks that are the basis for 90% of racers. The gameplay is deep, there a tons of bumps and ruts to tailor your line to, especially when you are forced off the beaten path. There are very different vehicles that make you tweak your riding style,more poignantlyduring the violent first lap; I really enjoy sticking a bike to the side of semiand riding that raging big dog through a turn. I just love the big versus small dynamic. I like the single player because of the rubber band effect applied to the cpu racers, you can just stay in the shyte and bang with 10 cpu opponents all race long.

IF you like very different rigs and play styles, big air, compact tracks and a gnarly crash/pile up dimension..motorstorm is where its at

If you like racing based entirely on apexing turns and tire hardness go somewhere else
