Motorstorm 3.0 Patch Available, Adds Rumble

And crash, too

PlayStation Blog has announced that a new patch is now available for Motorstorm.The biggest addition the patch bestows is rumble for PlayStation 3 owners who own the Dual Shock 3 controller (and I refuse to capitalize every letter like you demand of the press, Sony.) The Sixaxis (I refuse to capitalize and add that “™” . What am I, your whipping boy?) control has also been tweaked.

Click “Read more…” for the full array of patch notes.

(Thanks, PS3 Fanboy.)

  • Grid order has been randomised for first race in any online lobby
  • Finishing positions in your last race now determine your starting grid position in the next race within the same online lobby.

  • Sensitivity Settings for SIXAXIS™ Motion Sensor control have been added.
  • Gloating Index’ has been added to the Stats card – The Gloating index gives guidance as to a racer’s online prowess.

Try and rank your Gloating Index up to the perfect ‘10′!

      Nice, Ratchet added this functionality, too. Can’t wait to use it NEXT SPRING.

      Maybe if it’s not too expensive I’ll import a Japanese one, but it’s kind of strange to add support now…
