Trackmania DS will rock !

[pasc]

Ok here are some fresh news:

- TrackMania DS intends to address that very issue, promising more than just speedy races.

- different difficulty levels in singleplayer mode (can this be called like this ? TM Veterans help out

)

- Three locales are featured in the game: Stadium, Rally, and the American southwest

- Tight physics and handling

Spoiler

requires more finesse than just holding down the gas; instead, you'll need to pay close attention to your vehicle's position, velocity, and variations in the track. Hitting a wall could send your car into a game-ending spin or failing to control your speed in the face of a slight bump in the road might launch your vehicle off the track. These sort of physics running on a DS are almost unbelievable.

- a slew of multiplayer options, including 4 player wifi, hotseat time trial

- a comprehensive track editor could put this effort in pole position when released later this year.

Spoiler

-Race Driver: Create & Race was the first to introduce the concept on the handheld, but TrackMania DS takes it to an entirely new level. The 3D editor is downright amazing, allowing fluid movement of the camera to cement sections of your track. There was absolutely no slowdown as we created an original track by dragging pieces from folders lining the bottom of the touchscreen.

The editor is remarkably flexible, enabling you to use any pieces featured in the pre-designed single-player events in your own creations. All of the crazy obstacles in the main game are at your disposal; even cooler, you can designate height changes in the track via the D-pad. The cherry on top though has to be the ability at any time during edit to test out the track in real-time. No loading, no wait – the game just plops a car onto the track and you're free to drive through it.

I'm holding you personally accountable if it doesn't. In fact, if it receives anything less than an 8 on the Rock-o-Scale I'll be forced to revoke your rock-designator license. Consider yourself on notice Pasc.

At least a 7 on the Rock-o-Scale will do.

i hope there will be a tournament on GBAtemp when this comes out
Also, create and race was AWESOME!

I've played all the trackmanias except sunrise, and they are really fun games to pick up and play for a moment.

Hmm, looks alot like the PC version.
My computer can barely run the game, so a DS version sounds great :3
The entire thing looks really spot on.
Looks to be a very very solid port.

Though the PC version had the fun of modding stages and making them all out silly looking.
Like the race to get the candy and that soldier of fortune mission track.
The DS wont be able to have the cool and funky mods, so I hope they pick it up with some painting features for custom billboards and the like. Online play is a must. Also more and maybe exclusive cars and tracks would be nice. Car maker and skinner needed too. Oh ya, as for exclusives, go karts anyone? xD

Well, either way, it looks to be a really solid port non the less. Maybe if they dont go all nuts with this release they might pick it up in a sequel.
Though honestly this game would kinda fit the PSP better in a way.
I dunno, but its got more room for that sorta stuff.
Eh, we'll see.
I'll keep an eye on it for sure.
