I really like Pure (16 players online?!). I wanna see if Motorstorm 2 can top this, especially in the online department.

From what I've played of both, Pure isn't nearly as good as MotorStorm 1.

MS2 doubles the tracks, has 16 player online, and has much better core gameplay.

Head Coach is $49.99 individually at retail stores.

Oh, I didn't think it was sold outside of the Madden 09 collectors edition. I'd like to see those stand alone sell numbers :lol I tried it out but just couldn't get into it. The framerate and menus don't help either. If this stuff was all smooth and responsive then it would be a good product. Or rather, I would have kept at it until I "got it".

Am I the only one who can't download the Motorstorm 2 demo on Qore?
IIRC the download opens up on the eleventh. You then have a ticket to download it for 30 days.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

edit: beaten. :(

Hum well that's strange. Was it like that for the Naruto demo? And is it download it for 30 days or play it for 30 days? oO

No, Naruto was right away, this "is" different in fact.

Presumably it'll open the download link at a certain time, just like the Qore Episode 1 download link will activate in due time for the Socom beta.

Either way, who knows what's going on behind the scenes. I bet the Motorstorm demo in Qore, and the one released later will be one and the same. Back when people were complaining that we may lose demos with the introduction of Qore, I fear this may be a prime example. I'd love to get in on that demo, but I also would not want it to cost anything :P.

Edit: I meant download. The window to download MS2 will last for 30 days according to what I read (it'll go onto the PS Store by then anyways). Naruto was dl and play for an unlimited amount of time as mentioned above.
 
Damnit does anyone else get consistently crappy speeds on PSN? I keep getting ~1.5Mbps. I've seen my WiFi speed go higher when my Wii uses it so it's not my router.

No, try setting your ps3 to DMZ on your router. Also wired is faster if you don't mind the long ethernet cable.
 
To OP, there is a special KOJIMA san Video on the HK store as well as MGS HD videos.

Klonoa is coming to PSN? SWEET.
 
neight said:
My PS3 is NAT2. Guess this is the price of a free service. I'd still rather deal with slow speeds than have to pay $8 a month.

Then I don't know. Try a wired connection and see if that makes a difference.

[edit] Last ditch effort but I just remembered something. Try disabling upnp on the router.

News link where? I don't see it rated on the ESRB for the ps3, I've only seen it on the jp psn store.

I get around 1Mb/s =\
I connected to ethernet but didn't get better speeds until I turned on/off the PS3. Now I'm maxing out my connection. Still bummed out that the WiFi is slow I love wireless stuff... From Googling this seems to be a widespread problem with the PS3's WiFi.
 
This Qore episode is surprisingly really good. I don't know if these Game/Movie release lists are new, but I just found out that Kill Bill vol 1 and 2 are out on blu-ray, and I am going to order them tomorrow.

I'm getting around 1MB/S trough WiFi... First time I've heard about that "problem" so I doubt it's widespread.

Yeah, but I mean preorder them and stuff.

I just realizd that Godfather collection, Pirates collection, Kill bill collection, and Iron Man are out htis month. I need to order them all.

Well Google 'ps3 slow wifi' it may not be widespread but there are many other people with the same problem as me where WiFi is slow but ethernet isn't.
 
Wow... Pure was surprisingly a great demo! I can see alot of Motorstorm in it (and i loved the first Motorstorm) but this is looking better than what I've seen from Motorstorm 2. The game makes sure there is no sticky situation and always puts you in action. Tricks for boost is fun but it takes away the focus from boosting and it becomes more of a trick element. The promise of thousands of variation of vehicle is... promising!
 
I am SO glad they put out a trailer for The Fall. It's a beautiful film, and Blu-Ray is going to make it look marvelous.

Qore, once again, was fun to watch.

So I downloaded the PAX pack and the songs won't load. Anybody else have the same problem?
From earlier in the thread...

MrOctober said:
Don't buy the Rock Band pack, it's broken. MC Frontalot is definitely busted and won't load. I had no problem with Skullcrusher Mountain but others have had problems with the whole pack. Harmonix is working on it and will let us know soon when it gets fixed.
 
I can't read. Also, was searching thread for PAX, didn't see it. Oh well. I hope they get it fixed soon.

Time to get more Blu Rays!
 
I bummed Quore off of someone who has yearly subscription, and I'm happy to say that it features the best quality LBP videos I've ever seen. I's literally like having a game running in front of you, and it looks absolutely gorgeous. So much so that the Alex and Veronica that get into the shot after the video, look kinda pixelated and low-res in comparison! :lol

It also has very nicely LBP themed interface. Motorstorm 2 feature is pretty useless, and Bioshock feature again looks great. But LBP videos really steal the deal. They looked so damn good.
 
i actually really enjoyed the pure demo. i might buy it, totally reminds me of ssx. maybe i just wanna buy it because i need a new ssx so badly :(

edit: how many players offline is it?

Your TV must be very forgiving.

Does anyone know what bitrate and codec Qore uses? This was my first Qore and I'm shocked at the quality of the encode. At a little over 1gig for 30 minutes of video at 720p I expected better quality than what I saw.

Yeah this weeks QORE was the best yet by far. LPB, MS2, Bioshock and PoP is a goddamn great list for previews and the coming soon for Blu-Ray and games are awesome additions. I hope they keep improving so I can keep paying them 3$ i skipped last months crappy episode.
