Hey - Rich here, with early access for ALL supporters on the next DF Retro episode to go public: John's incredible retrospective on the Motorstorm saga. Retro supporters have had access to this for some weeks now and indeed, via the Supporter Program, helped to make it happen in the first place!

Still, with the next DF Retro episode soon to be released to retro supporters, Motorstorm goes public in the next few days, and I wanted to take the opportunity to put this amazing video in front of all of our supporters because we're so proud of it. And if it prompts a few supporter upgrades to the retro tier - well, as always, we'd appreciate your backing! Regardless though, enjoy this video, it was a real labour of love.

Next up for Retro Supporters? Well, per the weekly briefing, John's working on an appraisal of the PlayStation 3 launch - particularly in regards to the '1080p dream'. Every key PS3 title with 1080p support is examined and the results thus far are both entertaining or embarrassing, depending on the title. It's actually been kinda strange to look back at the PS3 launch and just generally, how challenging the entire PS360 era was in performance terms. That's coming soon, but for now - Motorstorm... time for a series reboot?
