Wow I just tried this game and it ROCKS!!! All the PS2 copies at the blockbuster were gone so I snatched the XBOX version. I'm planning on buying the PS2 version though. I could just sit there and lay the takedowns on people all night. hehehe I'm proud of myself, first race in the game, I got 7 takedowns :)
whichever version you get, make sure you can take it online - that's where this game REALLY shines
 
Just got burn out 3 on the xbox, damn it's flipping good! I mean, I knew it would be better then 2...but...wow :D

WELL WELL WELL worth buying even if you own 2 imo :)

Thank god for custom sound tracks though

oh and the graphics are STUNNING :D
 
A friend of mine watched me play thru a capture device and Yahoo IM last night and he is going to buy it for sure. Almost perfect quality thru the capture device and yahoo. He could even read the MPH and the signs. I also showed him some of the NFSU2 demo. Technology sure is great.
 
I've had it since Friday and I'm not even half way through yet.

You should be happy. I've finished games in five days before. I got Yoshi's story (N64) And finished it in under a week. Returned it and got Duke nukem 64, finished that in a week and returned it. Then I got Diddy kong racing and prayed that it would be of some difficulty. It took much longer than a week to finish and my hopes were restored in N64 gaming.

By the way does anybody think the N64 and Gamecube are flops? I know this is the PS2 forum, but I thought it was a nice link to my post.
 
Burning through games like that and you will beat them quickly, I play less than 3 hours a day normally and thats about 5-10 different games a day.
 
THe only problem I have with the online play is that I keep getting disconnected from a server and says that the communication could not connect.
 
I was hesitant to buy this game, just because it was 50$... But i got it and am quite happy with it. The race modes are INSANE though.. So hard to stay in front, let alone get in front... I'm used to racing games where the other cars dont care if you run into them. Haha. ;D

Well worth the play, and buy, in my opinion.
 
This game is great. I had a lot of fun with the demo, and so did the boys. But, I haven't been playing much video games lately, and neither have the boys. So, I'm doing what Neon is doing, and wating for the price to come down from $50. Plus, I got the demo, plus the Ace Combat 5 demo holding me over.

I like how you could slow down the crash, with that awesome sound effect. It was quite a fun experience listing to this game on the stereo. The sound quality and the overall sounds in this game are the best I've ever heard from a game. So, make sure you listen to it via a home stereo at least once.
 
K, for some reason I can't connect well with servers, whenever I join a server, it disconencts me out of it after a few seconds in the server, then the error message says "Unable to open communication to players in the game" . It's been doing it a lot lately, sometimes it doesn't. Its really annoying :guilty: :grumpy: :indiff:

Is this happening only with Burnout? Maybe you have some Firewall enabled in your connection.

I can´t help much with that since I´m not playing Burnout 3 online yet. But I´ll join you guys next week! :)
 
it's gotta be your router. Make sure you have UDP port 10070 opened

If that doesn't work, unplug your router and modem for a minute or 2 and pop them back in. That solves about 90% of my network problems for some really odd reason.

I heard a lot of people complaining about this online. It would also happen to me once in a while when I hosted rooms. I am also assuming it is the router. I am running a D-Link router. I will just open the port and see what happens.
 
Just got this working with my PS2 HDD and it's effing awesome, loading times are nice and fast too. ;)

This is one of those games that reminds you how fun gaming can be.
 
nfsu is overrated :). This game keeps me sane after I get home from 13 hours of being downtown for school
 
Nope not over rated at all. I finally got a chance to play again last night and im stil not half way thru it yet. I forgot how many hours I have into it but I think around 8 or 9. Ill have to check to verify this. Some of the races are soo intense. The rival is side by side ramming you until the end. I had the closes race ever last night even after a few "signature" takedowns. Excellent game still!!! 👍 👍
 
I just did the timed lap in the USA with the Euro racer, damn that was tight time, no crashes, non-stop boost and I still didn't get the time for ages, then I beat it by a tenth of a second. I've got most of the supercars now, the US racers is fast and funky, so is the Euro racer, the World racer will be insanely fast.
 
I played the level where it's like chicago, and you can do the pillar takedowns......I was driving in a straight line and ther are two of my rivils side by side with me. One bashes me to the left, which in turn I smack into the poor soul next to me, he goes into the pillar, and I bounce off of him into the guy that hit me, so HE got taken down as well. I was rollin on the floor laughing :lol: :lol: :lol:

Nice one! That´s what makes this game so fun to play.

I just love Road Rage mode. 👍
 
#My highest in that is 27, I don't know how I'm meant to do 40 for the champion takedown award.
