Diamondback Speedway and Eagle’s Nest are two new tracks for MotorStorm that you should be able to purchase online today. The map pack costs what is actually a pretty reasonable sum: $2.99.
I’m still a little sore that more tracks weren’t part of the original game. And I don’t really play MotorStorm much, though I would if it had splitscreen! But a small part of me tells me that these tracks look oh so cool and that I really should be checking them out. Doh!
Must … resist …

I’m still addicted to Motorstorm after all this time. Can’t wait to drive these new tracks!

I haven’t picked these up yet as they are online only and not part of a weekend ticket etc and i am so into Warhawk online at the mo that i don’t really play this online much. I will probably get them though at some point in the future. If we have had this much support for the first game it bodes well for Motorstorm 2 DLC…..

And Europeans pay 6€ for those two tracks… WTH? I mean, it is not too much money, but this makes me not want to put down money at all!
We live in a global world… This is the freakin internet, we compare prices regularly!

We pay 6€?! That’s just ridiculous! I mean I got used to paying the same amount of money, even though at the moment 1 Euro = 1.4708 U.S. dollars!!!! But paying nearly three times as much (6 Euros = 8.8248 U.S. dollars) is just unfair. Nice job Sony for pissing on us Europeans…. AGAIN……

I’m hoping the sequel to Motorstorm ships with more on-disc content and relies less on DLC. Motorstorm has a great core game, but it’s too simple and content-light for a $60 purchase.
I like the way PSN ships something new every week, even if it’s just another DLC pack or PS1 game. They can’t have a brand new PSN game or big-name demo every week, so it’s nice to save this smaller stuff for those weeks.
My sympathy to the Europeans. That pricing isn’t fair.

I’d gladly pay 10€ for all 4 tracks, but no cent more (maybe^^)… But now, You pay 18€ (6€ and 2×6€) for those 4 tracks… That is a bit hard on the wallet.
I still play MS every now and then, but at those prices, the new tracks just don’t cut it!

Motorstorm has bad use of the Havok physics engine….Many many many times I have had my vehicle “HANG” at the bottom of a take off ramp, and I am tired of the use of CONVEX corners. Instead of the physics helping you, they hurt you in this game.
