Calling All Cars! - Blu-ray Forum

Shin-Ra · 04-27-2007, 02:36 PM

Released: Thursday May 10th 2007

Calling All Cars! looks set to be the most popular PlayStation Network title yet with addictive bumper-to-bumper criminal busting online and off. Multiplayer includes up to four player splitscreen and a highly robust online mode with voice and text communication. Two players on one PLAYSTATION 3 can play splitscreen with 2 other players online.

IGN posted their review a couple of nights back.

IGN Review

Anyone interested in this game? I don't know if a demo's due next Thursday too.

Jaren613 · 04-27-2007, 03:43 PM

I'm buying this one no questions asked. It sounds like an awesome party game, and the two-player split screen online multiplayer (mouth full) is an addition I wish was in more games. Like IGN said, it's just the cost of a few beers, and it'll be fun for a while it looks, with its simple yet very crazy and balanced gameplay.

It was supposed to be released on the 19th of April though, please don't delay it again!

Captain Wiggles · 04-27-2007, 03:51 PM

A must download for sure.

Amon37 · 04-27-2007, 03:57 PM

jaffe said on his blog he was happy with an 8.5 considering it only took 11 months to make the game and at a very low cost relative to regular games.

jamacianman83 · 04-27-2007, 04:41 PM

Anybody know when calling all cars will be out on the ps3 network?

Jaren613 · 04-27-2007, 04:45 PM

See the OP. May 3rd.

u_nick · 04-27-2007, 05:34 PM

I think there is a demo already out? I know I played it a bit somewhere... unless I dreamed it... LOL

But yeah, I am highly interested in this one. I will more than likely be buying.

phranctoast · 04-27-2007, 05:56 PM

theres a video out on the psn. no demo yet though.

slind · 05-02-2007, 08:54 PM

Shin-Ra · 05-02-2007, 08:59 PM

Maybe the single player AI will be more fun, less perfect then. It must be both nice and annoying to get reviews slating a part of a game you can still improve if you delay.

slind · 05-02-2007, 09:06 PM

true

im looking so forward to this arcade game! so lets hope it will get out the 10th of may,

jbuttler007 · 05-02-2007, 09:09 PM

There needs to be a lot more downloadables like this on the PS store. Actually I think that the store is sucking right about now.

Jaren613 · 05-02-2007, 09:23 PM

So what are they fixing all the stuff people knocked on it? It will be funny if it comes with more maps/weapons too, then all the other reviews will be obsolete. Or he can keep giving updated versions of it to different reviewers and keep tweaking it until this fall.

BobChillin · 05-07-2007, 04:53 AM

i think I will eventually get this game, but does anyone know how many maps it has, or if they will add expansion levels??

Greenmatiz2 · 05-07-2007, 05:30 AM

It's nice to see that some developers aren't caught up in the "it has to look next-gen" craze. Sometimes the good looking games just aren't fun, or turn out to be button-mashers.

My gf just loves that free demo with the ducks that became available last week on the Sony store. I'm thinking of buying it for her to play when she's here. Heck, it's only about $7 or $8.

Jaren613 · 05-09-2007, 04:41 PM

So uh, is this game coming out tomorrow or is there still no word on this? I want to play it damnit!

Amon37 · 05-09-2007, 05:01 PM

No word yet. The only thing for sure for tomorrow is Rampart.

phranctoast · 05-09-2007, 05:09 PM

lets hope it comes out tommorrow.

phranctoast · 05-10-2007, 06:56 PM
