Burnout 3
 
Is currently making me fire hot bullets of love into my trousers.

As soon as the EA logo came on, my friends booed at the screen and though that they were gonna fuck with what made Burnout 2 so good. All they've done is add some extra style, and liscense 40 great and 2 not-so-good songs (and add an annoying DJ, who you can turn off :D).

This game is just pure style though. ALL 100 crash junctions are worth playing, the races immense, a HUGE selection of cars to be unlocked, amssive explosions.

In fact, theres only two bad things I can say. They got rid of local high score tables. The only way you can get a high-score is online.

2ndly, the load time is atrocious. Clear space on your hacked XBox/HDLoader for this one, it's virtually needed.

I actually can't wait until Friday, when it's released here.

I don't wanna wait, I want it now :'(

MrMeJW 09-04-2004 05:45 PM

Fuck, I can't wait.. I preordered it off of EAs store a while back when they had a 25% off sale.

deathtrap 09-05-2004 10:55 AM

it is great

Disturbed316 09-05-2004 02:08 PM

Played the demo, its gonna be great. Comes out on payday too :D

Jonster 09-05-2004 02:22 PM

In the words of me:

Gimme Gimme Gimme Gimme Gimme Gimme Gimme Gimme Gimme Gimme Gimme Gimme Gimme Gimme Gimme Gimme Gimme Gimme Gimme Gimme Gimme Gimme Gimme Gimme

Even better is the fact I've just sorted out my game drawer, and have enough to trade in to get it for free (and then some).


#BROKEN Hasney 09-06-2004 03:38 AM

I just found the high score tables! They're hidden away in the options menu! :D

This game now has 10/10 from me

MrMeJW 09-06-2004 01:40 PM

STOP IT! I really need this game

Jonster 09-06-2004 02:41 PM

I got hold of the one lap demo today (pre-ordered the XBox version, but could still get the PS2 demo).
Played through it 3 times in a row, mad hot. :cool:

Plus gonna go play it more now :D

Requiem 09-06-2004 03:56 PM

Makes me wanna rent it, and I don't normally rent games..

Jonster 09-06-2004 04:17 PM

Game are running a "trade any 5 games in and get a full priced game free".

I went in today and got them to price up all the games, and if I trade in the cheapest 5, I'll save about £15.

Plus I got Disgaea, and the Burnout 3 demo on PS2 and Wario Ware on GC with some of the other game's I had.

#BROKEN Hasney 09-07-2004 04:34 AM

Yeah, shame with that offer they do not include football or wrestling games ;)

Really, I thought it said any game?

No matter, I'm getting Burnout 3 with that offer anyway.

Disturbed316 09-07-2004 04:51 PM

lol I got that letter through the post about the offer, gonna trade in some really shitty and old games I have (airblade, just bring it, shut your mouth, fifa 200something, enter the matrix) and get a brand spanking new one :D

Jonster 09-07-2004 04:56 PM

I've just seen someone from England on my Live friends list play it. :'(

Disturbed316 09-07-2004 05:11 PM

-edit-

Disturbed316 09-07-2004 06:35 PM

That offer is only untill the 15th of September also :mad:

Jonster 09-07-2004 07:51 PM

Bugger, but at least Burnout 3 will be out by then :D

Excluded from trading in, due to the yearly updates and puplarity I guess

Suppose that makes sense.

But still, there's plenty of other games that get yearly updates that they'll seemingly accept :-\

Yeah, just reread the little leaflet that came with it :(

Oh well, I'm still gonna get Burnout 3 with the offer, just got to rethink which shitty games to get rid of.

MrMeJW 09-09-2004 01:39 AM

I got it today but some kid is living on our couch and cant get to the ps2

Requiem 09-09-2004 02:20 AM

Stupid gay movie places around here don't have it yet. I was like "Do you have this?" and they told me to come back on friday, cause they MIGHT have it by then... Not wasting my time if they DON'T have it on friday.. :mad:

Disturbed316 09-10-2004 01:59 PM

Got it today, OMG it rules so much.

Liking the layout and how you unlock stuff is good.

Gonna play more in abit.

Requiem 09-12-2004 12:23 AM

Wow... rented it last night, and have played it a ton... I LOVE this game.. :love:

razorblade kisses 09-12-2004 07:37 AM

12 hours, 400 takedowns, all crash junctions golded

Ohhhhh yeeeaaaaahhhh

Jonster 09-12-2004 01:04 PM

14 hours, just started last lap of crash tour, but finished the races, and have played online for about 5 or 6 hours.

Around 500 takedowns :cool:

And I got the firetruck last night :cool:

AareDub 09-12-2004 01:38 PM

I should be able to play this sometime during the week. Never played a Burnout game before, but I'm looking forward to checking this one out.

Requiem 09-12-2004 11:28 PM

I've just now got like 75 mil in crash junctions... Finished the second lap of the tour. Have like 7 hours I think?

Jonster 09-13-2004 08:13 AM

I got my $100 mil for crashing last night, and finished the GP where you use the forumla 1 like car (that whole GP is a bastard :mad: ).

So now got all the heavyweights, and am working through getting gold on everything else (I wanted to unlock all the junctions and races cause I always host with our friends).

SuperSlim 09-13-2004 09:38 AM

I finally got to play it Friday night for the first time. hours later Saturday mornin we complete and I am destined to obtain that game.

loopydate 09-13-2004 09:45 PM

I just rented it, and what an amazing game! Of course, I haven't done anything but Crash Mode yet, but this is the best way to blow off steam in video game form since Vice City.

Jonster 09-17-2004 07:31 PM

A couple of days ago I finally got all gold in everything, all but 2 cars (need the signature takedowns (3 to go) and takedown targets (4 to go)), then I will have got 100% :o

Not gonna stop me playing mind :D

Disturbed316 09-17-2004 07:57 PM

I hate having a girlfriend, it takes my time away from this game :'(

Joe Kerr 09-17-2004 10:32 PM

not to bad I played silent hill 4 and beat it in 2 days I've been playing Burnout 3 for 2 hours and already bored (could be because Ive just beat test drive Eve of destruction twice and im bored of crashing shit). Im gonna watch a movie and play more later.

Anyone else have the problem (not sure if its just muscle cars) where you'll be on a straight away with the gas down and suddenly your cars speed decreases? Just wondering why that happened

Joe Kerr 09-17-2004 10:33 PM

Question:


How do you headline to get the firetruck? It says 10 headlines to unlock and I have yet to see 1.

The Destroyer 09-18-2004 09:12 AM

Pity it's not coming out on the Gamecube. :mad:
