Due a bug with the 1.05 patch, the Haunted trophy (and therefore the Platinum as well) is completely unobtainable.Īs there is no story mode, there is no set way to play through this game, but we do advise that once you start playing online that you don't spend any coins until you have reached level 51 and prestiged.
#MICRO MACHINES WORLD SERIES PSNPROFIKES PLUS#
Like many online games Micro Machines has rotations of Seasons which remain active for 60 days at a time, plus Special Events that appear every weekend granting players access to a familiar game mode but with specific mutators such as changes in rules or weapons or give double xp. Micro Machines is a simple top down racer, which brings it's old roots to next generation consoles with re-imaginings of the series classic tracks and cars, plus a new game mode called Battle which introduces car specific abilities.

Glitched trophies: Yes, 4 - First Responder, Haunted, Quake The Arena and Micro Master.Minimum number of playthroughs: Numerous races and events.

Approximate amount of time to Platinum: 26-50hrs ( Estimated Time to Platinum).Estimated trophy difficulty: 2/10 ( Platinum Difficulty Rating).In all, this is a neat little racer and should go some way to filling the eternal Micro Machines-shaped hole in our lives when it hits Vita this summer.Ĭlick on through for more screens and information. Table Top Racing is undoubtedly better with four players scrapping for the win, but it's still perfectly enjoyable in two-player (even if it does feel a bit lonely with just the two of you competing). Multiplayer is restricted to real opponents only (so no bots) but is lag-free in local link-up play, which I tried. The game is still being balanced, so while its quite easy to bag all three stars at present, that may not be the case for the final game.

You can earn up to three stars in every event, which you can exchange for vehicle upgrades and new cars. Events are not restricted to straight races, with Time Attack laps and cat/mouse games to play too.
#MICRO MACHINES WORLD SERIES PSNPROFIKES UPGRADE#
Single-player sees you earning money to upgrade your vehicle and unlock new cars as you go. While the action isnt as immediately spectacular WipEout, they share some sensibilities, with weapon pick-ups on the track and EMP blasts, rockets and speed-up boosts all available to help you get ahead. The game's developer, Playrise, is headed by WipEout's lead designer, Nick Burcombe. The action is 3D, but you wont be able to see upcoming corners as easily, so a knowledge of the track is pretty essential if you want to use that one seriously. But you can also change the viewpoint to a micro Machines V3-style isometric-angled camera. The default camera is the customary chase view, which stays directly behind your vehicle as you race through breakfast and office items, which tower over you. It fits the handheld very well, echoing Motorstorm RC with its compulsive, 'must-get-all-the-stars' structure. Table Top Racing has already been released on phones, but its making the leap to Vita soon. Remember Micro Machines? This is pretty much what that game would look like if it were released today.
