delayed or not??? still launch window??? i dont feel like wading thru 30+ pages in the official sony gamer day thread.......so anyone who can post a link about motorstorms release status, it be greatly appreciated!

sonycowboy says delayed, EBGamestop says delayed. Sony doesn't have it scheduled for this year except for in Japan. It's delayed.

it got delayed to 2007 and I was saying that all along. From the recent interview I thought it was obvious they were behind schedule. They didn't know how many players they would support online!

But it should be twice as good though. I hope they will increase the number of racers to 20 in single player and 16 in multiplayer

Maybe they'll add a couple of tracks too.

1-2 month delay now, better than 20 pages of bitching about whatever niggling problems weren't fixed at launch.

That said, it better be gold when it does come out!

I didn't think that Motorstorm was ever a launch game.

A friend at work played this yesterday at Sony Santa Monica, and wasn't impressed by the gameplay at all... Said that it was too picky, and that a single mistake would usually result in failure and it just didn't feel good. Also said the game was having a hard time maintaining 30 FPS. The guy showing it to him at Sony agreed, and said it was just a good "screenshot game".

Guy has been a programmer on racing games for some time, so he's likely to be pickier than most, but either way it sounds like them taking more time with it is a good thing.

Wow March is going to be pretty crazy.

 

[Zaptruder]

March 2007!

<March 2007 PS3 release list>

That's going to be one ****ing nuts euro PS3 launch.

I think I'm going to start buying some PS3 software, just so I don't have to see a massive massive launch day bill

 

[Ned Flanders]

Holy sh*t at March. Will any of those multi-platform titles be hitting the 360 first (Assassins Creed, Virtua Tennis etc)??

 

[quetz67]

If they use the delay to create some more diversity in tracks (or maybe go up to 1080p) I am all for it. If it only it is there at launch (europe that is)

The guy showing it to him at Sony agreed, and said it was just a good "screenshot game".

Thats funny becuase this game looks worse in screenshots, only video's do it justice.

 

[Elios83]

Well just fro once I'm happy about a delay.
It's better to release it in March but complete (with 12 tracks on disc and further optimizations) than rushing it to Christmas.

 

[squicken]

I'm sure some of those dates are placeholder. I'm guessing Burnout will be a fall title. And I can't believe EA is porting The Godfather to another system.

March 2007!

Just another game to add to the greatest Euro launch ever!!

 

[Blablurn]

wow! maybe they want to make it even better *_*.

 

[Chrono]

I know it won't happen but 1080p @ 60 fps is what I'm hoping they'd go for...surprise upgrade-ton! heh.

 

[AndriaSang]

Sony just recently announced a 12/7 date for Japan. A bit strange that they would announce a date only to delay it a couple of weeks later.

Maybe Japan will get a gimped version since the Japanese PS3 lineup is so sparse.

But I'm personally all for a delay of a few months if it means they can make it even better.

A downloadable Motorstorm demo will be available 11/17
