The Life & Death of 'MotorStorm' (RETROSPECTIVE)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 авг 2024
- There was a time in late 2007 where MotorStorm was THE game to have for your PlayStation 3. In his official review, IGN's Jeremy Dunham labeled the game as the 'system seller' for Sony's hot, new console. Over the years, MotorStorm took many shapes. From a desert racer where anything goes in any vehicle, to a tropical paradise bursting at the seams with death defying jumps, all the way over into arctic and remote controlled handheld territory on the PSP and PS Vita. This was the baby of Evolution Studios, and for a period of several years, it looked as though the team could do no wrong.
But, you've heard the phrase: "Nothing gold can stay." MotorStorm's final entry is already 10 years old, and even worse, Evolution Studios was shut down just a few years later. What went wrong? What happened to this high octane racer that seemed destined for greatness? We'll cover all that and more. Enjoy it!

i love game MotorStorm 1 need remake 💙❤😭😭
Omg you’ve read my mind with these! Imagine a Ps5 reboot with the high fidelity graphics and crazy fast fps!
You're tellin' me, man.
@@616Entertainment yep there are rumours of it being rebooted by the same guys who made destruction all stars
YESH!!!
Bro I would freakin do anything for that! I have the console, I would just need Motorstorm for PS5 to come out🥲
@@mackenzieglidden2968 F
This series had no reason to die, but if they don’t plan to make a new game then they should remaster the previous ones. Preferably I’d want apocalypse to get a remaster as it would visually amazing on the modern hardware.
Apocalypse is the one I wouldn't want, hahaha. I'll get into my reasons in this video. But I'm glad there are already MotorStorm fans in the comments. =)
@@616Entertainment motorstorm will NEVER die to us fanboys!
@@shawklan27 NEVER!!!
@@616Entertainment they should remaster pacific rift
Why not remaster the main 3? MV, PR, and Apocalypse?
Remember seeing the graphics on this when i was a kid and my jaw just dropped… insane for the time
100%, dude.
Crazy thing is, MS Monument Valley’s graphics still hold pretty well today.
Another great retrospective! I will always go back to Motorstorm on my PS3 whenever I need a fun, adrenaline filled romp, Pacific Rift especially.
PR is my favorite one, no doubt.
YES!!! When I get bored of freakin new gen, I literally go on PS3 and play some good ol Motorstorm for a week ☺️
I remember when a good friend of mine got Motorstorm one day and we liked it so much, that he eventually got all the PS3 sequels as well when they got made. We played days and nights in multiplayer. Especially Pacific Rift. Good times.
I love this.
The original MotorStorm is one of my most nostalgic games. I braved my way through the nasty rubber-band AI (Buggy Byway can rot in hell) to win every single event in the vanilla game (not counting DLC because I didn't even know it had DLC until watching this video).
Dude that is fantastic. Happy to see MotorStorm fans in the comments. This video totally bombed so feel free to post this around wherever you like and try to give it some eyes, hahahhaa
"What's up, Dan Dans? My name is Ian..."
Whenever i hear those words, my day gets a little better.
Thanks man, I appreciate that.
You said everything I've wanted someone with a platform to say! It's one of the best arcade racing series of all time, I'd kill for a reboot and/or remaster of the motorstorm trilogy!
You and me both. Thanks for watching! The next Life & Death is on Turok, drops on Friday. Stick around!
Motorstorm is my favorite game of all time, or series I should say. It shaped my childhood, I have so many memories with these games. Mainly pacific rift however. That game alone brought me and my cousins closer together, it made for some family fun race nights on those nostalgic cool summer nights. The music brought me to explore many artists and tracks. I did my first fan art for this game. So many priceless memory’s I will never forget. Hell, I still return to the game everyonce and a while. Motorstorm might seem like another racing game to some, but it’s so much more than that. The cars, the world, gameplay, sounds, and music set up the game to being, in my opinion. One of the best racers ever created. It’s original, it’s fun, it’s awesome. Sony needs to remaster this game, Lunatics Unite!
I love this. And I'm with you, Pacific Rift is my favorite of the whole series.
Ian, I am SO SORRY for missing the premiere of this awesome video. I was incredibly busy today, and I had to wait until I finished to watch the video. I just finished right now, and I was blown away by everything I’ve learned in this video. This series looks SO much fun and thanks to you, I think I might get the whole series in due time. Like I said, this year looks to be very fun for me in terms of new games to play. Also I feel so awful for all those people who died in the Japan earthquake of 2011. I remember that like it was yesterday, such an awful event. Anyways, fantastic content, Ian, and I can’t wait for the Turok video! Peace✌️
No need for sorries on the premiere, it's here whenever you get around to it!
@@616Entertainment
Thank you, Ian, for being so understanding like always. 👍
Hell yeah Motorstorm is still one of my favorite racing game experiences. I still remember playing the demo for the first game over and over before finally getting it. Man Pendulum's Slam is still on my usual tracklist whenever I'm driving and whenever that song comes on I forget that I'm on a boring highway and not in a mud plugger. I always liked the aesthetics for Pacific Rift more since it was overall a much more colorful game when it came to environments and Apocalypse was cool but honestly not my favorite looking back on it. Still a solid franchise that would benefit from a remaster. Maybe some day.
Another great retrospective Ian!
PS: I can't be the only one who overheated their way through the finish line.
I remember when demos were a big things nowadays theres not many
Dude there's a trophy in Pacific Rift for boosting over the line, yessir!
I'm 52 grew up on gaming my favorite racing games where Gran Turismo since PS1 but damn MotoStorm was great and gave me something different.
Hell yea!
Amazing retrospective, i am glad that i am not the only one having a blast with Motorstorm! I wish we had more games like these.
One of the best, man.
Thank you Ian, this was great. I have a little story myself about the first Motorstorm. One day I was not feeling well and left school early. My mom stopped on a gas station and I picked up Play the Playstation Magazine with DVD coverage of Motorstorm. I was sipping tea later this day and was blow away by the graphic.
That is amazing. I love it.
Awesome as Always My Dude!! Thanks So Much🤘🖤😝🖤🤘
Thanks for watching!
I didn’t even hesitate to click on this video, insane to see someone finally talk about it. When I was little I always used to go round my grandparents house and play on my grandads PS3. He only had the Pacific Rift, Apocalypse, and the original one. I can’t remember if he had Artic Edge. I was so good at those games and surprisingly still am 😂
Thanks for watching. I was excited to cover a series that not many people have gone into, but, I guess I see why. About 2 days since release now, I can comfortably say this retrospective totally bombed. Major bummer to have weeks and weeks of work draw less viewership than a standard let's play, but hey, what am I gonna do. Thanks for watching.
Ian we are the same age and I can't agree more dude we grew up in the perfect time to see a crazy evolution in gaming. I still remember playing vectorman on my sega and that blew my mind.
Vectorman, hell yea.
Another fantastic retrospective. Fond memories of the original game! Keep up the amazing work, Ian!
Thanks man!
I was not a racing guy, but this game, coming from the crappy Wii, blew me away. Including the surround sound, it gave me tears of joy on my first play at home.
Yes!
I was born in 2000, the ps2 Xbox Era I believe, but that didn't stop me playing the classic consoles. My dad being the champ that he is took extra care of his older consoles. To this day we still hook up the n64 or the snes to just re-live both of our childhoods. Gaming will always be a big part of my life, I thank my dad for that.
Fantastic memories, man. I love it.
I feel like Motorstorm is to the PS3 what Wave Race 64 was to the N64 and what F-Zero was to the Super Nintendo (coincidentally all racing games) to say that they’re looked at as glorified tech demos because of their lack of content, but all three have aged like fine wine and are still phenomenal to play.
Oh man, I don't think F Zero or MotorStorm are THAT shallow.
Nice! I knew you would play "Speeding", I was waiting for it! That or "How we do It"...that one also gives me driving vibes. Good stuff. I've been getting back into PS3 lately and now these games are on my list. Thank you for doing what you do.
Ha! I hope it was worth the wait! I'll try and find another place to sneak in some Lights in the future. And hell yea, the PS3 catalog is so deep.
@@616Entertainment Damn right! And the playstation shop is still active so I've been scooping up some PS1 and 2 classics, as well.
LIGHTS anywhere would be amazing, but I did love this little snippet. Her new album is fire, for sure. Got it preordered and the anticipation is killing me for it to arrive.
The PS3 was my console of choice that generation and Motorstorm along with Resistance were my first 2 games, I absolutely loved the game and the series, wish we could get a compilation or at least BC feature on PS5 that just unlocked the frame rate.
Oh damn just had u say u got the 2 together as well lol
God damn this is bringing back memories watching the video.
Dude, MotorStorm and Resitance. The 1-2 punch.
Excellent video I never owned a motor storm game before today I bought the second game because it looks amazing
That's my favorite one. Enjoy!
Thank you for this video, we NEED motorstorm back!
I wish!
Awesome episode once again I love it when Ian mentions his personal childhood memories.It’s crazy that at the time people use to think the Ps2 graphics where ahead of there time back in the early 2000s.
Dude we couldn't imagine them getting better, it's so crazy.
Love the callout for photo mode of 1 and elimination mode in 2. Hells yeah.
Also dig the transition between overheating vehicles into overheating PS3s :]
Real shame I couldn't wake up for the premiere (set an alarm and promptly had a dream about mariachi)
Love you DanDan! Get some
Thanks for watching, brudda.
I never played part 1. I forgot about Motorstorm. I saw part 2 at GameStop used for really cheap;. I figured id try it. Man I loved it and part 3
Pacific Rift is my favorite, good choice.
That OST is makin' me think: "Time to do that Hero thing, Spidey!"
We Need A Remake Or New Titles Of This Incredible Game!
I mean, OnRush was it. And I think I'm the only person in the world who bought it. =/
@@616Entertainment I have it as well, shame no one acknowledged its existence
It even reuses the car models from Pacific rift
Bruh. How did I miss this franchise? I loved Burnout, this would have been right up my alley. Pacific Rift would have blew my mind with the boost feature and how it was integrated. I may have to find the 2nd one if it is available on digital stores. Apocalypse seems interesting.
You get me hyped to try a play through of a motor storm game.
Do it!
I desperately miss that mid 00s era for video games. 360/PS3 era was the peak imo. It was the first HD era for games yet they also still supported traditional local play. And the games were still meant for fun and actually tried to innovate. I feel like once Xbox one/PS4 came out, gaming really went downhill. It’s sad. I hope I’m not the only one
I don't agree with you on this one. There are plenty of games out there still innovating, and there's a fair amount of repetition in every generation.
I remember breaking my neck looking up at Walmart to play this game, I loved it so much
Hahahha, great memories.
I missed the MotorStorm games when they were new (the 360 was my main system in that generation and by the time I got a PS3, I played other stuff like Uncharted and Metal Gear), but a while ago I managed to pick up the first two MotorStorms for basically nothing at a used book store. Unfortunately, I haven't gotten around to Pacific Rift yet, but the first game is brilliant and holds up really well today despite the relatively limited amount of content. I'm a big fan of the old Burnout and FlatOut games, so MotorStorm would've been right up my alley back in the day.
While it wasn't mentioned in the video, Codemasters' Dirt 5 was also developed by the former MotorStorm/OnRush folks, now called Codemasters Cheshire. I haven't played that one yet, but based on the gameplay I've seen there's still quite a bit of the old MotorStorm DNA in there and it seems to have been one of the best launch games for the PS5 and Xbox Series S/X back in 2020.
Great call at the end and yes, you're correct. I honestly just didn't want the ending to get too long in the tooth, so I had to draw the line somewhere. I've yet to check out Dirt 5, as well, so I wasn't able to speak on it from a personal perspective.
It’s a shame the game caught so much flack for not living up to the prerelease trailer visually. Yeah, the graphics were misleading, but the game itself was still AWESOME. I remember it was in constant rotation on my PS3 still late in its lifecycle.
Indeed!
I watched the Motorstorm Let’s Play Friday episode last night in anticipation for this one!!
Hell yea. That was a long time ago!
Yes yes yes what a game I got it a while after when it was cheaper and loved it the soundtrack was amazing and loved the amount of vehicles and classes. Great game thanks for showing it off again.
Thanks for watching!
You know what... I never grave a chance to the MS portable editions and I just finished my second run of cyberpunk so I got time. I'll give them a try, the classic PSP looks awesome! Have a good one Ian, as usual this video was an awesome trip to nostalgia lane
Dude, enjoy!
I loved MotorStorm: RC on the PS Vita due to its dual analog sticks. I got the platinum and the DLC trophies last year. I wished we could have gotten a proper MotorStorm entry on the PS Vita that can implement twin stick controls. MotorStorm: RC still has its servers up despite being a decade old. Sadly, I'm not sure if the MotorStorm franchise may ever come back. It's in limbo along with Killzone and Sly Cooper.
I love these games also. Apocalypse is actually my favorite of the series. I love how chaotic it is. Thanks for this video.
Thanks for watching!
the track skyline was my map on the game, i spent 6 months just making LOD models for the statues and background buildings lol
@@adamstockton3401 It's a beautiful idea, it looks great, the concept is killer... It's just too much happening at a breakneck pace! Hahaha. Thanks for watching, dude.
My biggest issue with Apocalypse is the decision to have some vehicles locked behind multiplayer unlocks (...kind of hard to unlock them now that the servers are offline).
Yea, that's not ideal.
Happy Friday can't wait for this video
Thanks for watching, man.
Great video man, seriously. Very high quality too. I'm gonna really miss evolution. They just had this magic about them. They were INSANELY talented. Curse you all for not buying OnRush
We stand tall as the OnRush support team.
@@616Entertainment 🙏🙏
I had the idea of Codemasters making a remastered collection of Monument Valley, Pacific Rift, Artic Edge, and Apocalypse and calling it...
Motorstorm: Continental Rush
I'm all for it.
We had way too much fun playing this game ❤️
What a great problem to have, right?
Excellent retrospective once again. I’ve never really played the MotorStorm games outside of a demo here and there, but this has really made me wanna try it out for real. I own Pacific Rift, Arctic Edge, and Apocalypse so I’m gonna add them to my play queue 👍🏻
Pacific Rift is my favorite for sure. Enjoy.
Never been a racing guy myself either but am like you man, give me mario kart or burnout then am all in! You feel the same about motor storm the same way I feel about the need for speed series. I loved NFS Underground 1 & 2 but nothing after that can compare to how good these classics were. I do agree that these earlier games always had some of the best soundtracks man, this next generation of games just have to much of a generic sound to them. But, this was a great life and death brotha! Great to learn about a once great franchise. Am so hype for the turok and God of war videos man🤘
#ThanksForWhatYouDo
#WearetheDanDans
#MuchLove
Thanks man. Yea we're getting closer and closer to God Of War, I'm excited to get into those.
I remember the day I got my playstation 3, it came with Resistance: Fall of Man and MotorStorm. Both games I higly regard and have fond memories.
I played the franchise ad nauseum. I was top 100 in learderboards for Pacific Rift, and too bad but I felt out of love with the franchise with the direction Apocalypse was heading. I tried the third installment at its launch and it wasn't for me any longer. I'm just glad that close to that time another game caught my attention and addiction, it was Blur. That's another arcade racer that had unfortunated turn of events around it that lead the studio to be shut down (Bizzare Creations, same developers from the Project Gotham Racing series). Maybe a video about it in the future?
When I got my first computer ever I put it in the little wooden cabinet with the closing door that was built into my computer desk and didn't think about it. About 3 days later my computer was running a bit slow and when I opened up the door to check on it a big blast of hot air came out. Probably would not have been much longer before I cooked my brand new pc
Dude we live and learn, lol
My relationship ended today. Binge watching 616 videos and eating copious amounts of chinese & ice cream is proving to be a good cure thanks Ian 🤘
Sorry to hear that. You'll be aight. Take care of yourself!
Biggest flaw with the original was no split screen. This is back in 2006 when online play on consoles wasn't what it is today.
Hey MAN!
1st… BIG Thanx 4 this!
2nd… „OOOH my Goodness!“,
You really did:
T . H . E . „Motorstorm-Documentary“ EVER done on fuc**ng YouTUBE, sooo precisely, well & entertaining!
I am a german human, who did play kinda everything scince „PONG“… and found a „Jewel“ for me personally… when Motorstorm hit the Market.
I am short before becoming 70 years old (actually 69)… and i guess, i … lived through „A LOT“.
So… seeing THIS (by accident) gave me the „biggest smile of the month“!
Btw: SORRY, if my grammar is‘nt the best! When i was a schoolboy… English was‘nt „invented“ for german teachers. So… i learned it by looking original Movies and read english books.
Anyway… back 2 TOPIC;
Thanks AGAIN 4 DIS!

Cosmo NoMAD
man this brings back memories. i remember winning the last race with my molotov drago. what a big rig.
Dude heeeeellllll yea.
The ps3 was neglected in my house in favor of the 360 but I'm going back title by title and building my ps3 library. We have to go back bros
First of all, I apologize for coming to this video SUPER late. Meant to watch it a long time ago and just let it slip. But man, what a shirt you’ve got there haha.
It’s funny to hear you talking up Burnout, me and MTM have been playing Burnout Revenge lately and it’s been tons of fun. I don’t get into the racing sim games either so our tastes there are pretty similar with Mario Kart and the like. For that reason, maybe I’ll have to give Motorstorm a shot one of these days. Plus you can’t beat those mid 2000s video game butt rock soundtracks hahaha.
Some of the game modes you mentioned ended up in that Burnout game we were playing too, where the guy in last place explodes until there’s one left. Gotta love it.
“Who needs a story mode in a racing game?” I agree but I also love knowing that this came from the same guy who needed to kayfabe a team situation to keep continuity intact when drivers died in the previous game haha.
Awesome video as always, man. I can see the appeal of this franchise!
No apologies needed brudda. Dude I knew you'd pop for the shirt! Hahahaha. Burnout is one of the kings, without a doubt. Also, as for me questioning the need for story and then creating my own... Touché. Hahahaha
I'm playing the first Mortorstorm for the first time, and re-discovering Pacific rift (played it when I was 16 or so).
And good god, these games are pure fun injected in your blood stream!!!
Pacific Rift is my favorite, for sure.
I've honestly gotta disagree with some of the criticisms leveled at Apocalypse, as it being my favorite game in the series. While I can agree that the choice of motion comic is maybe not the best route to have taken, I can appreciate that they were going for something more ambitious than just a simple racing game; to actually go for a story and characters, to make the world of Motorstorm something more than just people racing, I commend the effort. And if you go and read the collectible card descriptions they put a lot of time into creating individual character backstory and even different factions within the festival they belong to. It's something they clearly cared about and gave a lot of thought towards.
As for the destruction during races, this is honestly why it's my favorite Motorstorm. I never found overly distracting to where it made races too difficult or frustrating, and honestly it only enhanced the enjoyment I got out of them. Motorstorm is about chaotic racing, and this is the epitome of that. It makes races more skillful in how you play them, and the shifting tracks mean that races feel far more dynamic and interesting.
It's like how in Split/Second, a major power-play can completely change the track to open up a new route, or in Sonic All-Stars Racing Transformed when the tracks alter so you go into a different vehicle mode. It makes races more fun and interesting to play.
Disagree all you want, nothing wrong with a little disagreement. I'm glad you liked Apocalypse, I wish I liked it that much. I'll stick with the first two, though. Thanks for watching!

Looks like a lot of fun!! I have seen Twisted Metal and Burnout a bit but not much of this. I know DSP seemed to have a blast with the insanity of it when he played it back in the day (2011-ish). Seems like a game you could make stunt clips out of, play it however you want to
I don't know what DSP is, and which game are you referring to, Twisted Metal or Burnout? I did a Let's Play Friday on Burnout Paradise not long ago!
@@616Entertainment this one! But of course Burnout is insane lol I’ll have to watch that one
I played ever motorstorm game as a kid with the first game being my first game, these games were soo good with apocalypse being my all time favorite. They need to remake at lest one of them if they won't make a new one
If only, man.
i was an artist on MS3 apocalypse, loved this series.
Hell yea, man. Thanks for taking the time to watch.
I've gotten 'nostalgic' lately and you're killing me and my bank account!!! My midlife crisis impulse buy filter is gone and all the great older games you review become mine shortly after...love it!!!
Well you’re in luck with this one. None of the MotorStorm games are exceptionally valuable. Pacific Rift might run you like $15-$20 tops!

Awesome L&D Retrospective I Really Wanna Play Motorstorm Now
Do it! They're all cheap these days.
I have had the same thoughts about graphical improvement plateauing at some point. I wonder how much players are still concerned about it nowadays, and if there is room for games that want to go for a different graphical style in today's landscape
Hopefully less and less. Gameplay is king.
Maybe this is part of why pixel games are big now. There's no more chance for improvement so the focus is more on art style
It was the first PS3 game I saw in person. Got lucky enough to go to a PS event about a month before the launch of the console.
Folks, this blew my pubes off.
That's awesome!
29:13 Ironically, there's another racing game with disasters called "Split/Second"
i used to play pacific rift on the ps3 and i also played arctic edge on my psp (and still do), i love these games so much and i hope one day they can somehow be revived
Great games man.
@@616Entertainment frr only thing i dont like about arctic edge for example is there isnt too many levels, especially if u played for long it gets repetitive
The Killzone lie was the reason i jumped ship to Xbox at the time, only now returning with PS5. Great vid despite never having played a MotorStorm game
Dude you've missed so many good games.
amazing vid , you deserve a lot more views
Hahaha, thanks man. All I can control is my quality and consistency.
I NEVER understood why Sony let this company just die, same with Studio Liverpool (the devs behind the WipEout series).
They didn't let them die, they straight up closed the doors on them. =/
I love the little things about this channel I swear spider man 2 music in the background hell yes
Good ear. =)
PS3 was my last console and I loved this series so much I haven't really played any other racing game since in my PC. I wish there was a remaster and port to PC, I will melt my computer playing those.
In OnRush on PC?
@@616Entertainment Now, I will be, thanks
BRUH I didn’t even know Motorstorm had a Trilogy… I only owned the First and Apocalypse which I thought was the second one. I never heard of Pacific Rift now I have to visit my Game store to hunt that one down! Never played the PSP or Vita ones either although I can probably buy the Vita version since I do own the Vita still! Thanks for covering a Series on PS3 that actually made PS3 standout from its Lackluster Launch! BTW I’m going on 35 and remember when I got my OG PS for my 10th Birthday almost 25 Years ago this year… Smackdown Shut Your Mouth is my Personal Favorite. Until SVR, & SVR 06. I can also tell you how I got my PS3 so when the iPhone OG first came out I went to AT&T to try and get one. But you know Credit Checks and since I was starting out they wanted a $600 Down payment not even for the phone just the Down Payment I was like nah I’m good. Went to Target on the way Home and got the Fat 80GB PS3 a Copy of Resistance and the newly released Uncharted Drake’s Fortune! Man 2007 was the Year man. Got the 360 that same Year got Bioshock and Halo 3! Ahhh Great Times! Yah no what’s funny Pacific Rift and Split Second are the only 2 Games back then that had the Eliminator Race if you were last on that Game you would be blown to bits. Loved it!
I love this. Dude, Resistance was so good, and it only got better from there. You were there, you know!
@@616Entertainment Hell Yeah I do
The first Motor Storm is my favorite racing game of all time i LOVED it. I was in the store with my wife and seen Motor Storm Apocalypse and I had a mild argument with her because I was going to buy it right then and she wanted me to wait and read about it, I didn't listen. I wouldn't recommend Motor Storm Apocalypse for target practice, much less for someone to play as a racing game. I have never in my life been angrier over a game than I was over Motor Storm Apocalypse and I started playing games on the commodore 64, so yea been a gamer a LONG time. I'm still not sure if it was all because the game sucked so bad or because my wife was right, and I should have listened. They lost sight of what made the first Motor Storm so good, sad being it was the best racing game i ever played. Great video, big thumbs up.
EDIT.......OMG how did I miss Pacific Rim? OK, Buying a PS3 and motor Storm Pacific Rim on Monday
Pacific Rim is my favorite by a long shot. Enjoy!
@@616Entertainment Thank you I just got home with a used PS3 but no Pacific Rim, The Gamestop didnt have a copy. I'm going to order it off the internet so it will take a little while to get it mailed but it's on its way I can play the first Motor storm though it was in my attic.
When i was a kid i absolutely fell in love with Apocalypse. To this day it still is my favourite Motorstorm.
But I've recently been replaying Artic Edge and Pacific Rift and i finally get it why people disliked Apocalypse. The driving doesn't even feel like the older motorstorms.
Nonetheless, the graphics were mind blowing back in the day and i liked the story mode!
I really don't get why people didn't like the story mode. The comics you see between the races, HAPPENED between the races so it does make sense to see them. I get the animation argument, they were kinda weird but it feels motorstorm nonetheless. Apocalypse had canceled DLC unfortunately, because i love the concept of racing through a falling city.
Im praying for a ps5 Apocalypse reboot. Either that or remaster the entire ps3 games or just a new motorstorm game.
The question is, where would they take motorstorm next? Like what new setting would they bring? We already had deserts, ice, tropical islands and cities i have absolutely no idea where they would take it next.
I love Motorstorm , the arcade fun and multiple lanes to go on and different vehicles. I just finished Apocalypse and it was super fun. If no sequel, I would love a good remaster of every game.
Great retrospective! Really looking forward to picking these up. I totally missed these during my PS3 days but looking forward to exploring them now. A good arcade racer that I'm sure still holds up well!
Dude enjoy!
from seeing motorstorm apocalypse comic scenes that really gave me a look and thought about twisted metal 2 endings but as remastered
Man, Twisted Metal 2 had great cutscenes.
Certainly wasn't expecting to almost CRY watching this video... great job 616!🏁🏁
Happy to know at least the community is still alive and well when it comes to this franchise!🙏🙏
Hahahaha, thanks for watching. Which part almost made you cry?!
@@616Entertainment It was towards the end, not only was it the closing of Evolution studios. But it was as well Tohoku Japan, the shutting down of all the servers, Apocalypse's quiet release and how Motorstorm RC was "Motorstorm's checkered flag" 33:29
But it was also how PSONE brought back online for the first game and mentioning that there's still a heartwarming community as well! So yea.. a mix of good and bad things, but mainly towards the end.🏁🏁
@@ethanphelps308 I hear you, man. It really is a hell of a story how all of these things are tied together. Thanks for watching!
@@616Entertainment Indeed! And of course, thanks for the video!🏁🏁
hey Ian i love this video and MotorStorm series is good I'm curious will you do a video on the Infamous games since you mentioned it in this video?
Quite possible. We'll see.
my favorite song from the sound track is Big Red Rocket of Love
It's a great OST for sure.
Online was crazy !!! Play it every week ! Love them all ❤❤
This needs a remaster or a reboot or something, I played all of these games but played them when their time had already come and gone. Which is a bummer because I would’ve really loved to play these online.
If only, man.
Motorstorm Apocalypse was my fav. Races were crazy, characters was fun and not taken seriously. Me and my friends used to play this game hella often. Those maps were insane
I love this.
Great video. Always loved the Motor Storm series.
Me too! Hahaha thanks man.
As some one who had the highest online rank in PR and apocalypse, apocalypse is the better game , but pacific rift is right there next to it. Pacific rift has floaty physics which required you to master to get good at, apocalypse had tighter physics which required you to learn the tracks and the events like the back of your hand .
Yea I respect this input from somebody who played the games a ton. The first two were real floaty, Apocalypse being so much tighter and heavier is what lost me. I was like “where’s my floatiness?!” Hahaha
@@616Entertainment It's all down to preference.Pacific rift and apoclaypsewere two etreems and teh original game and arctic edge had the physics nailed down . Drive club was even heavier but it also had it's charm. Apocalpse is also more forgiving, Shit that wrecks you in PR doesn't do anything in apoclaypse , but the tracks are much more complex and unforgiving .
great video i never got to play this series but i will now
Enjoy!
Lol just when you said “you thought what I was talking about didn’t you?” I thought this guy forgot what he was talking about
I like how you referred to me as "you" "this guy" and "he" all in the same sentence, hahahaha
I think I hear' enter the web-head' in there from SM2:Enter Electro(2001).
Great vid as usual! Can't wait for Life and Death of Turok 🦖🦖
Going to be great!
Favorite vehicles are Mojave Slugger(Willys MB Jeep), Wombat Typhoon, Patriot Surger('68 Dodge Charger) and the Patriot Thunderchief
I love these picks.
I can consider MotorStorm Apocalypse as a unofficial sequel to Split/Second and Pure.
I just wish there was an actual festival in real life.
OnRush is where it's at!
Besides Gran Turismo, the other racing game that I loved to death was ATV Offroad Fury 1 and 2 on the PS2. It's a shame that the original studio got bought out and the series never went to PS3. Motorstorm did capture some of that vibe and more. Good times.
Good times indeed.
Such a great series. Would kill for a remaster of this series to come back in a manner a la Tony Hawk 1+2. Heck, I wouldn't mind Gran Turismo adding some tributes to this franchise by adding some vehicles as easter eggs. We already had WW2 Jeeps/Volkswagens, F1 Minivans, Nike Cars, and more, so why not add cars like the Patrioit Surger, into the mix, with some decals as a bonus?
If only, man. I'd love it.
The second motorstorm was arguably the best motorstorm. But monument valley and Onrush will always be my favorites and hold special places in my heart
Pacific Rift is my favorite, for sure.
@@616Entertainment makes sense why lol. But man I wish onrush could be the successor to motorstorm you know? But I’m assuming since it didn’t have an actual *racing mode* it turned people off and didn’t really give it the chance it deserved. Codemasters put so much love and care into onrush and it showed. But no one cared enough to acknowledge it. It just makes me sad at this point.
@@Instinct0418 Hurts my heart. I think I said it in the video here, but it's true, OnRush was easily my favorite racer on the entire generation.
pacific rift or monument valley remastered would be amazing apocalypse would as well but the first two games are some of my favourite games i’ve ever played and i still play them to this day
My man shopping at Kohls!!!!! My wife just got me that Godzilla shirt today and then my favorite RUclipsr is rockin it in this video!
Dude their t-shirt selection is great. I got a Frankenstein shirt there that I absolutely love.
@@616Entertainment hell yeah man a hidden gem
Yo 616, you’re right about this game! It had an awesome soundtrack!!!
Damn right!
