i just bought motorstorm and i LOVE IT!

and i know i'd be repeating everybody if i were to complain about the lack of split-screen so ill skip the rant. but what do u think the chances are for Sony making it possible to DOWNLOAD split-screen?

a similar(ish) situation is that with xbox live on Gears u could download more maps... its the same idea with the whole extra game content. in my oppinion, split scren is the only major problem with that game

The only thing that can "save" motorstorm is a better online lobby system. Other than that is barely needs saving.

It seems split screen is a tough technical issue, as the game was done to play online ... It may make the game lose stability or frame rate ...

if they come out with a download that will add split screen then this game becomes a purchase for me, but with out it its nothin more then a weeks rental

and if this game had custom soudntracks, then even without split screen it would become a must own for me, but custom soundtracks will never happen on a sony system as they are to blind to see the sellin potential of it

yea it cant be that hard to allow people to play their own stuff. and everybody likes games a ton more when its THEIR music playing.. BUT this game (for me) has a pretty good sound track. a lot of major artists are in it.. i liked that during my first try at the game, i heard Nirvana, Queens of the Stoneage, AND Slipknot. but of course there is a lot of stuff id rather hear.

the "who needs split screen when u have no friends" is basicly "no" or "i dont want it" but im sure u figured it out on ur own.. ALSO the dirtbikes are cool.. u can punch people! but no fun when u get run over by a truck that looks like it belongs in starwars! (if anybody has played motorstorm u know wut im talking about)

I want a free roaming map where you don't race, you just drive around and hit each other, maybe have a jump distance point system.

They will never do it. End. Most likely because that would cost alot of money and it would rip, jitter, jag, and freeze at every possible instance.

Im sure single and online playing is great but I wanted this game for me and my friends to play offline.  I was so dissapointed when I heard no offline multiplayer.  Its not a must have now.  Ill just wait and hope for a download or something.

i played resistance on split screen, and i remember why i always hated split screen. i see why they left it out of motorstorm, it just ruins the game for me. the graphics in the new games are too nice, and the gameplay is more enthralling, i just dont like it stifled by split screen. better online for it would be a nice plus, clean that up a bit, and a few maps wouldnt bother me. but i love the game.

They wont give it all to you on the first run, you'll have to wait for "Motorstorm 2". that's how they sell you the sequel. they pour it little by little, to make you keep coming back. that's how the business works, my friend.

This game is amazing, it does have a significant learning curve to it, but that's what makes it great. People shouldn't cry over how hard it is, beating that AI with these physics makes a win in this game the most rewarding and fun experience I've ever had in a racing game, and probably any game for that matter. This game you could race 1 track 20 times and not stop until you get that #1 spot, the game is that hot.

i think DL content will help motorstorm. im buying it bc DL content will be made otherwise probably not. And im a casual gamer. so i think i speak for the majority

also what's hot about motorstorm is that you could race the same track an infinite # of times and never repeat the same scenario, the race will be totally different each time cause of the ai and physics

yea i love how hard the AI can be. frustrating at times but its great to play a racing game where u actually feel like there are other people in the cars. these cars will run u over, push u off clifs, hit u off your bike... etc. omg its just all around great!

i just still wish i could play it with a friend at my house.. even in online, some games do that where u can only go split screen if its online.. i would settle for that. but 1) only a few of my friends have a PS3 2) even THEY dont all have motorstorm anyway

I have actually never played music while playing games. That's what the sound from the game is for. I would much rather have the game's sound blaring through my surround sound.

it depends on the game for me, liek the burnouts i dont mind them at first but afterawhile the music just annoys the hell out of me, and i know ill get to that point even faster in motorstorm, i would jus tliek to be able to listen to my own music in game, without havein to turn down the music sound to 0 and pop a cd into a cd player when all i should have to do is click the music settins and be able to choose custom soundtrack playlists

Its probably possible but whether they spend time on downloadable update or on the sequel is the real question... I have a feeling this will be a popular game... loved the demo and cant wait to get it for my bday.

I thought I heard on IGN that the creators at Evolution were actually working on content for the PSN.  Anyone else hear that?

yes they did confirm DLC. Mortorstorm is a great game, split screen wouldve been nice but i dont think it kills the game by any means. anything they add to it from now on is just icing on the cake to me.

really after playing it for a while, i wouldnt really enjoy it too much on split screen, there is so much going on sometimes that if your screen was smaller it would almost feel like it was taking away frome the awe factor. But it wouldnt be bad for them to put it in there as it would sell more copies. Also i do agree with dirtysanchez about the custom soundtrack support(even though it isnt a selling point to me like it is for him) that in certain games such as racing and sports games it is a great feature, but on something like mgs i would never touch the original soundtrack

yah there won't be a split screen any time soon. They spend all their time pushing for the graphics, they can't do split screen from not losing any quality. RR7 loses quality on split screens... Its on their interview somewhere

this games would does need to be SAVE. However online content with further enhance the games. It's a great game, that only Gamespot think it's need saving, other think it's very good already.

The games is pure fun.  For those online racer that drive like dale earnhardt, thanks for wrecking my races.

if the would add split-sreen...i'd definetly buy this game on the european launch. i don't even care if they have to lower the visual experience. i don't need a game that looks great but doesn't offer me chance to have fun with my friends at home...

when I play racing games, I still listen to the sounds. mainly because i will drive with a manual transmission and you need to listen to know when to change gears.

They should do what other games are doing, Split screen and at the same time you can go online. So split screen with your friend or brother and together have fun at the same time online.

that would be the best ultimate solution, right?

Very true to that. Heck, thats a reason why i don't buy burnout games on a sony console, is because of the crummy soundtrack. Though motorstorm has a alright soundtrack.
