Burnout 3 10/10

[Beertiger]

Wishlist for Burnout 4:

Proper AI (no cheating)

Better handling

Ditch the pathetic EA online crap, and run it on proper LIVE servers (know that won't happen)

Aim soundtrack at people other than 14 year-old skaters

Still, Burnout 3 was definitely worth a 9. One of the best games this gen.

I agree with your statments except handling.

Well the handling is fine but they needed to include the drift system from Outrun 2. It's just divine and i always mess up when i go back to Burnout 3 because the Outrun 2 system just feels right.

i'd say an 8 but a definite 9 if you have a HDTV. Yes it does make it that much more playable.

Burnout 3 is pretty good for a no brain, adrenalin pumped up game of crazy fast racing in between bouts of other deeper games. 10/10 rating though is pretty generous in hindsight its good but not that good.

Well, I laughed.

Me too. A bit too much really.

I'm still laughing actually.

With the Burnout franchise now under EA's wings you can bet that there will be a Burnout 4 or a spin-off (such as Burnout 2005) or something.

There's a good chance one of those is true.

Another vote here for BO3 being massively overrated at the time. Seems a lot of people are still loving it, which is cool, but it just seems massively broken to me...

Thanks for saving me the bother of saying what's wrong with Burnout 3. Well done.

I'd have said 8/10 when it was released. Probably still 8/10 now. It is a great racing game and very playable, but definitely let down by having to do some tracks on full boost where one crash means you won't make it! And it's just by luck if you do beat the track!
