IGN have revealed that everyone's favourite PS3 off-road racer, Motorstorm, will be getting a new downloadable patch on the 7th of June. What will this include, you ask? Read on.The main attraction of the patch is an all new Time Attack mode, which allows you to race against your best times. Not only that, but the very fastest times will be put on the online leaderboard for others to download and race against. In fact, it has been said that you will be able to race against up to seven of these best-time-ghosts. Is this the first proper implementation of Harrison's hilariously dubbed Game 3.0?
Other updates and fixes include improved online stability, a fix for the boost exploit and an upgraded buddy list that now has room for up to 50 friends. If you've got them. For a full list of fixes, check out the breakdown over at IGN.

that's coolness. they've got a pretty solid starting point in the game, it will be nice to see them build it up over time.

I think this is a title that will really take off if/when they do a sequel to it. With that they should be able to take care off all the complaints (split-screen!) that everyone has with the game, and also really push it forward with the newer development tools and general knowledge of the ps3.
Looking forward to this patch though, and hopefully we'll see a few new courses in the future as well.

Can Motorstorm fix the slow load times for car selection via a patch?

"I'm happy with my PS3... I guess if you have so much time to troll PS3 web site and news about the PS3 folding, you must be bored to death, or your console is at the shop....
Happy folding all. Let's get that PetaFlop mark soon.

A Edwin...don't think so.
Remember though that when you are choosing your car and it is 'loading' it is actually loading the whole race, it isn't 'just' the car that is being loaded.

how about a patch to make online available for people who have a japanese version of motor storm

This game rocks...but the patch is a joke. Hopefully the sequel will have 1) better load times, 2) splitscreen multiplayer 3)more courses 4) ability to play your own music

this patch is going to be cool, and will acknowledge the exploitation of the boosting as well. and all the loads time are, like dude said, in part because the levels and all the jazz are so crazy that you just have to be patient. and like another one said...it doesn't make sense we can't implement our own music into current games, like this one. slayer??
