xbox: burnout3! buy this game now!

BUY THIS GAME NOW!!!
WORTH FULL PRICE!!!
(i bought it used though, i traded in some old games)

Most fun racing game I've ever played.

What it is: You race around at INSANE speeds trying to run people off the road. You can push your opponents into oncoming traffic and shit causing huge accidents. When you take more risks you gain more boost=more speed.

Tons of bonuses and unlockables and ONLINE PLAY make this game WORTH THE PURCHASE. and trust me, I RARELY ever buy a game.

Great reviews of this game here:

http://www.gaming-age.com/cgi-bin/re...&game=burnout3
http://www.gamespot.com <--im too lazy to find it. but its definitely 9+







and this game is GREAT ON XBL!!!

yeah, single player can get old in a hurry...that's why you gotta play it online against real opponents

I played the demo NFSU2 has in the options and its pretty addicting... if i do get it, its probably going to be for the PS2... my lil'bro loved it... so most likely i'll be getting it pretty soon... If you play online w/ the PS2, can you play against XBox ppl or is it propriatory towards the console???

Great great game... highly recommend-single player is fun and quite challenging in some areas especially if you want to get the gold each time.

F1's are fast as fawk but very light so it's not the most desirable to have in road rage cuz they'll just knock you around like a tin can.

I played the first one and was totally turned off by the fact that everytime you had a crash the action stopped to show a slow-mo replay three times from three different angles. Also, the replay was triggered by like fender-bender wrecks or rubbing against the guardrail. Got extremely annoying, very quickly. I'd assume they have improved upon this in the 3rd edition, but the 1st one ruined the series for me.

In Burnout3 you can slow down the crash scene manually by holding A and then steer your wreck into your enemies to get an "aftertouch takeout" bonus. You cannot do this in multiplayer though.

From what I've read, Burnout3 surpasses the other burnouts in all aspects

I own it (Or does it own me!!) Me and a very hot female friend raced against each other last weekend. Ohh what fun did we have. She convinced me to grab the Madcatz steering wheel for Xbox (one with reddish orange grips). I let her steer with that while I used the mini controller. Anyhow, most fun I've had in ages. Much better than the Crusin USA Nostalgia I had back in 8th grade way back when. Being that I just signed up for live tonight, me and the ladies are gonna take it for another spin. Come join us. Same handle as here (TIGUY99)

My rating 10/10

Same here only I played it on the demo of nfs2 with my hot friend. She suggested we get the game and next thing you know I was at Gamestop getting my spankin new used copy for $36! I haven't slept much these past few days guys. Ohh yeah...get the steering wheel. We place bets over who gets to race with it because the experience is that good. What the hell am I doing here, I'm getting back on live again. See you there guys. WE go on as tiguy99 in several games including Halo2. However, I'll be on Burnout 3 pretty much all day

You can even drive as a city bus! There's something like 67 plus hidden cars you can drive in this game. Don't fret if you see my school bus ram into your indy car Rise

Damn. Would've been fun though. Perhaps a code exists that allows the option. Can you imagine the mayhem of a city bus or even a school bus to go against the f1. Or what would happen if the F1 hit the bus? Hey you can drive semi trucks too if I remember correctly. I wonder if you can operate construction vehicles and crash them into other stuff. One more thing, maybe there's a code that allows you to enter an online race but not as a racer but as a destraction vehicle that can cause accidents like drive as oncoming traffic in a semi and ram it into folks trying to win! That mode would be killer!
