Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket Powered Cars - Play & Help

Tigerblade · 10-10-2008, 2:41 PM

(or whatever it is called)

Anyone got this yet? Found a problem with it, got 6 trophies but after they have been synced on the game branch of the xmb they don't show up on the gamercard on the friends list

Good little game tho, far better than I was expecting and genuinely fun

Haven't even heard of this, is it a racer? The name is almost as bad as M.A.G though.

It's football but instead of players you control little cars by ramming, jumping into and blocking the ball. Sounds stupid but it is actually a blast. Loads of mini games too that are very addictive.

It looks good, I may download the demo and test it out.

Seems it's a problem for everyone from my digging about

Probably because its not on the EU PSN Store yet?

They're "hoping" for a November EU Release.

Everything syncs fine now so must have been a glitch if anyone else had/has the prob

theshabster · 19-10-2008, 10:33 AM

I played the demo for this yesterday, & I love it - Just a shame that it's a VERY SHORT demo.

Has there been a UK release date yet?

I can't purchase it from the US store as I only own a Maestro debit card

FYI, regardless of what kind of card you have you can't register a new card on the US PSN anymore anyway. That option was disabled a while back. Those who registered their card back then when it was working are the only ones who can still buy content that way. The other option is Entropay for which there is a separate thread if you do a search.

playin some 2v2 online with my mate and me on one team. he went up ont the roof and i controlled the ball then he did a triple barrel roll down from the roof to the ball and scored a bumber (header). great goal.

ps. if you hold x and o (I think) you go into fly mode.

pps. It's "Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars" not "Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket Powered Cars" .get it right.

No need to get all worked up about it. Just because the name is not spelt exactly right isn't the end of the world.

theshabster · 19-10-2008, 10:08 PM

Thanks Moogle - Is this Entropay secure enough? I've read about it, & I'm a little sceptical with things like this.

Will it actually work out cheaper than purchasing from the UK store, even after taking into account the exchange rate?

Is is the wrong time of the month?

theshabster · 24-10-2008, 10:10 AM

Still no sign of this game on the Euro store this week

theshabster · 27-10-2008, 11:16 AM

Any word on the EU release date?

theshabster · 29-10-2008, 8:47 AM

I can't cope with the sheer quantity of information regarding the release date of this game

theshabster · 14-11-2008, 12:58 PM

Just seen a quote from one of the guys over @ Psyonix:

Hey Guys! Just to give you an update we are currently in certification for Europe. It is going to be a few more weeks however. No one wants the process to go faster than we do, so we are doing everything we can to get it out asap.

Dave

Looks like it wont be out by the end of the month

theshabster · 17-12-2008, 8:36 AM

It's a joke how long this is taking to get through the European boards.

We were told that it was going to be released by end November (over a month after the US release), then we were told December, & now we're being told sometime in the New Year - GREAT!

Tigerblade · 18-12-2008, 5:42 PM

Get a US PSN card off ebay mate, you'll have it tonight then

I've looked at those, & you end up paying OTT for a card IIRC?

Do you know of any reputable sellers on the bay?

There is a link in the Super Streetfighter 2 thread that ppl have been using

theshabster · 14-01-2009, 9:25 AM

FINALLY

The EU version has just passed SCEE certification!

Release date: Thursday, January 22nd 2009

NB: Yes, I am rather excited

theshabster · 21-01-2009, 11:00 PM

Will anyone be joining me on this tomorrow?

Aparently the EU version comes with 90mins of full game access. Those 90mins are purely for playing the game, & menu browsing isn't counted towards the 90mins

It's a cracking idea to get a decent feel for the game.

After you've used up your 90mins of game play, you'll have access to a limited version of the game (unless you choose to purchase the full access rights to the game on PSN).

theshabster · 22-01-2009, 10:07 AM

ANOTHER last minute delay by SCEE - What a complete & utter JOKE!

SCEE need to get a grip!

theshabster · 28-01-2009, 8:25 AM

This WILL be released tomorrow.

It's currently being implemented into the Store update as we speak, but no solid confirmation of a price as yet.

I'm beginning to sound like a broken record

*redwinnie* · 29-01-2009, 10:20 AM

I am/was really looking forward to this, but just noticed no trophies.

My mates and I enjoy sharing PSN games and having little trophy competitions (who can get most in the first week etc), so although I wouldn't glass myself as a trophy whore, I will not buy a PSN game with no trophy support. Especially for 7.99, maybe for the usual £3 something like some are.

BT@HOME · 29-01-2009, 10:26 AM

There is a trophy list Trophies: Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars - Joystiq [PlayStation]

I assume a game update is required to enable them (although I hope this is the same as the blast factor trophy update that appears to have gone AWOL for Europe)

*redwinnie* · 29-01-2009, 10:38 AM

Thanks for that, it appears there is a trophy list. In my defence I am at work and can only see a few websites and it's not listed in any of those places that I usually look.

It is now a definate purchase, especially as I'm not paying. Whoever loses the trophy challenge for the week/month buys the new game.
