Modo Time Attack Disponible para MotorStorm el 7 de Junio

Junto con otros Extras y bugs corregidos:

Look everybody, it's a new game mode for Motorstorm! Oh, and a few fixes too. Starting June 7th, players will be able to try out Time Attack mode, which allows them to race for time on any track with any vehicle type, complete with ghost racers to help you push yourself farther, faster. You'll be able to race against your friends' ghosts as well, and the fastest times will get uploaded to the global leaderboards for others to race against.

Also included in the new downloadable content is a series of fixes and tweaks to the game to make it a little bit more playable. Fourteen items are addressed (see the list after the jump), but for me the most significant is Game Status being show in the online games list. Entering race after race only to find that the other players had already started and I'd have to wait for several minutes was frustrating enough for me to stop playing. Maybe I'll try again come June.

And yes, we noticed the 'new downloadable content' was 90% patches, but we won't say anything if you won't. Michael Fahey

MotorStorm™ for PS3 - New Downloadable Content Announced

Show the world how fast you really are with the new MotorStorm Time Attack mode.

Since its March 6th launch date, MotorStorm on the PLAYSTATION�3 has been solidified as the must have off-road action adventure title of the year. The wild and dirty ride continues with the availability of new downloadable content. Sony Computer Entertainment American along with the development team at Evolution Studios is delighted to announce the arrival of the Time Attack Mode, a new and cost-free automatic patch exclusively for MotorStorm on the PLAYSTATION�3.

In Time Attack gamers can set their best times on each track with any available vehicle classes, then race against �ghost� laps in subsequent Time Attack races.
