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.

Love this challenge. So frustrating trying to shave seconds off your time yet so addictive.
PoolieMike
Just put in a 33.730 which puts me number 1 in the world as of right now. Woo.
Please don’t beat me.
Kivi95
DAmn you are sick 0_0. oh well will try atleast…
nofi
Bah.
PoolieMike
You’ll be pleased to hear I bettered it to a 33.468 or thereabouts. Then spent around five hours solid trying to beat it and failing miserably.
justboy
May as well finish the comp early then!
PoolieMike
Can I just confirm I actually entered? I filled in the form and then got FOUR lots of spam avoidance things to fill in, so was kind of wondering if I’d actually been entered or not :D I guess I am, since nofi added me on PSN…?
teflon
Yup, we got your entry just fine. :)

I’ve been shaving as much as I can, but just can’t get past 39 seconds. How in God’s name are people managing a full 5 seconds faster! Witchcraft I say, you should all be dunked in a lake.

Put the razor down and focus on the game? :P

I’ve entered but I’m not eligible for prizes.
Not that I’d have won anyways. :P
I’d like to have more lines (and hopefully more forgiving times) to beat.
So if anybody has Motorstorm RC on PS3 or Vita, add me at colmshan1990 please.
SoulGamer
I got the game and on S Vita (though PS3 too)
I’ll add you soon if not add me on Veteran8701

Holy hell the competition is tough. No way I’ll shave 5 seconds to get to 33.4, but it’s good fun nonetheless.

Gave it a go but can’t get below 40 seconds. >.<

“The prizes are for UK PSN account holders only”
“A SEN account is required”
– Contradicting much? One says a PSN account is required, the other a SEN account, surely one account can’t be both?
teflon
Sorry, just a minor wording mix up as we were putting this together with SCEE.
All PSN accounts are SEN accounts, so it’s just a case of us saying the same thing twice!
