I played Motorstorm once again, and this time with the tounted tilt control.

I played, I turned the car, it was fun.

Until I crashed.

It was horrible.

You felt nothing.

Sometimes you forget to realize how INTEGRAL rumble is to motion-sensing.

When playing Wii, it feels real. When the pinter moves over a spot, there is a small rumble on the remote. That makes it feels tactile.

That doesn't happen on Motorstorm, or any other PS3 game.

You feel extremely disconnected from the car when playing. Unlike Excitetruck, where you feel every bump on the road, because it rumbles slighty when you go over every bump on the road, all the way to giving a small rumble when you go over a small bump, to a big jarring rumble when going over a rock.

It feels horrible.

SCE better fix this, or it will be a very bad gimmick that is no better than what the DualShock 2 had.

Go to Wii for realistic immersion, not PS3. Go to PS3 for watching Blu-ray.

Unless SCE fixes this, it will not change.

The ergonomic feel of the six axis controller is unsurpassed by it's competition. The time tested feel of the six axis has become standard for the industry and beloved by all it's consumers.

The only force feedback needed for motion sensing racing games is the controller pushing its self against the direction your're turning. Like high end gaming wheels do.

Without that all motion sensing racing games are terrible.

The first one is not gameplay (from Motorstorm), but the last one is gameplay (from Excite Truck)

Excte Truck was actually very fun.

EXTREME!

It was very fast paced and a better sense of speed than Motorstorm.

EXTREME!

It was also a lot more colorfull than Motorstorm.

EXTREME!

And the motion controls actually worked.

EXTREME!

Have you played Motorstorm? Have you actually played it on a real retail PS3 that's not at a kiosk?
Why would you think I haven't played a game just because I don't like it.
I know a lot of people who own their own consoles. Most of them own Wii's. I've played plenty of Excite Truck to know it's a terrible video game.

No its not, theres no way you can call a game that has worse graphics, sound, multiplayer, levels, and gameplay better. You cna like it better, but you cant call it better.

that wrecks the enitre purpose of the game though. it was supposed to be used with tilt. why get a system with tilt, and not use the tilt?

Wait did someone say Excite truck had a better snese of speed then Motorstorm? Prooves you never played either, Excite trcuk was pretty slow paced for a game called exciting. Maybe you didnt know, theres a boost button in motorstorm, and dont play the demo on the kiosks.

"Advanced techniques"

Excite Truck is about as deep as the original Excite Bike. I kid of course.
But my point still stands.

Motorstorm is better in every conceivable way. Better driving mechanics, better tracks, better physics, better graphics, better sound, better enemy AI, better multiplayer.
It's a better game.

Which motorstorm, the one in the kiosks? Yea that would feel slow paced since your playing it at an average of 20 fps.

At my friends house. Im not saying it was bad, it was just a litle slow compared to other games.
