E3 Footage of Motor Storm was Real Time
December 12, 2005: Motor Storm CEO finally puts the rumors to rest... The E3 trailer footage was realtime running on the PS3 Alpha kits with the 6800 SLI and a slower cell processor. I do have one caveot the AI was turned off to showcase the visuals. Keep in mind the graphics were achieved with a watered down version of the final PS3. Once the final kits are received we should expect the same level of visuals with the final build. To view the entire interview utilize the story link and review the "Game News" section and scroll down to the Motor Storm video. This is great news for the PS3, welcome to the next-gen!

If we can expect graphics and physics close to what we see in the trailer, we're really in for an amazing offroad experience that will simply kill anything the Xbox 360 will throw at Sony. This trailer makes PGR for the 360 look stiff and fake. The AI turned off is an issue, but at the same time, the dev kits they were using were not as powerful as what they have in their hands now, and they've had actual time to optimize everyting.
