TSA’s Awesome MotorStorm: RC Contest
The white line is my nemesis...

A belated Happy Vita day, and in celebration of this fabulous looking console’s launch, we’ve got a little contest for you. It’s part of one of my favourite franchises, and one of the games that has quite a bit of positive press and a nice buzz surrounding it, MotorStorm: RC.
Thankfully this is one of the Cross Play titles, and on a scheme where you buy once and get for both platforms to boot. That means that this particular contest is actually open to Vita and PS3 owners alike. Even better, we’ll be using one of the levels from the trial version of the game, which means you can join in even if you’ve not yet bought the game. You really should, though.
So what have we got up for grabs for the winner? Well, it’s a little bit special:
- A £5 UK PlayStation Network / SEN voucher, which should cover the cost of the game.
- Some DLC for the game. *
- An exclusive PSN avatar from Evolution that nobody else will ever get. *
To enter, all you need to do is fill in the form below, with your TSA ID, PSN ID and email address, so that I only know who to look out for. We also ask if you’ll be playing on Vita, just because we’re a little bit curious to see how many new owners there are.
And how do you try to win? It’s easy: go and set some level times on the 3rd Festival level in Monument Valley: Night Clubbed, where you have to overtake 10 cars as quickly as possible.
This level is open right away in the free trial, but needs to be unlocked in the full game. Don’t worry, it’ll probably take you less than half an hour, and will let you get acquainted with the games physics engine and hopefully some extra vehicles.
Entries will close at 11PM GMT on Monday 27th of February, at which point I’ll check the leaderboard for this event, and the entrant with the best time will be our prize winner. *
* Terms and conditions apply – see below.
I hope to see names from TSA lighting up the top of the boards in the next few hours. Go and get racing, and let us know how you’re doing in the comments!
* Terms and Conditions (in addition to our normal terms):
- The prizes are for UK PSN account holders only. If the winner does not have access to a UK PSN account they may chose to forfeit the prize and the next best placed time will win.
- There will only be one winner. All prizes will go to that one winner.
- There are no cash alternatives. The prizes are not transferable. There is no cash value to the DLC and avatar codes.
- We will only accept entrants via the form above. If you haven’t entered via the form by the time stated, you’re not part of the competition. Closing date for leaderboard entries is final.
- There may be a delay of an indeterminate length between the end of the competition and the receipt of different parts of the prize such as the DLC and avatar codes. We will aim to get the £5 PSN voucher out via email as soon as possible but the DLC and avatar are likely to be at least a few weeks away.
- All prize details are subject to change without notice.
- DLC bundle and avatar codes are kindly supplied by SCEE and Evolution. TheSixthAxis, SCEE and Evolution are not responsible if the codes don’t work or otherwise.
- It can sometimes take a few minutes for the game to sync your times to the leader board. Be a little patient, and don’t leave it until the last minute.
- A SEN account is required.
- Our decisions in all these regards are final.

Will give this a go later, will fill the details in now though. Teflon and THL always seem to be just ahead of me in motorstorm RC atm, that will change!

That’s the thinking. Put yourself in the running, and then just see what you can do. I then just have to see who came out best at the end.

I like the idea! But can you win though as you seem to be top atm? :P

btw I said I would be playing it on Vita when actually it will be on my PS3, does that make a difference, apologies for being an idiot.

The Vita question is primarily out of curiosity. It doesn’t impact anything, and is optional anyway.
Sadly I can’t win, as I’d absolutely love to have a custom avatar! I’ll still give it my all, though. Not top, anyway. Nofi is ahead of me, for one thing, and so are a few others.

I’m also 8 seconds off the pace (although have not given the event many tries yet). But 8 seconds seem a lot, is there some trick to be able to enter the event in a faster car or something? :)

Great idea for a competition!
I bought the game on Tuesday, so I’ll have a go. Not expecting much as I’m pretty sure some of my best times are still ranked at least 1000th

Just entered. If it turns out the trial doesn’t work on PS3, i’m going to drive a monster truck straight into your house Tef. :p Also, i’m a bloody crazy driver so i may just ram everyone out of the way. I just want the voucher tbh. :)

Definately your type of competition event Manor, where you normally thrive! ;)
Great competition, I’ll have to get around to D/L the game sometime, I’ve noticed a few people on my friends list playing it.

I had a quick go on it last night round a mate’s house, but it made my eyes go funny after a while!! :( Not sure if it was my eyes or his telly that was causing the problem though!!
I’ll download it myself later and give it a try.

I have entered but constantly find myself behind the usual suspects.
One thing I have noticed is that TSA gents are generally placed pretty high on the overall leaderboards. I know some are doing very well but all seem to be in the top few hundred or so which considering there must be 1000,s playing this game is pretty impressive, don’t you think? Keep up the good work.
