Yes, its very sensitive, it needs to be, to dodge traffic.

Powerslides are very easy and fun to pull off.

Oh, I read in a review last night by Gamespot.com that it's easy to control cars in Burnout 3, it's very touch sensetive, the car moves to your slightest touch on the pad. Is that true? I'd really like to get this game if that were so

I haven't heard it, but it's a cool album to listen to if you on a long drive. Rush Hour - VA Complication 2 cds

*evil laugh*

well suckers, you persuaded me to purchase this game with your constant stream of praise.

I'll be honest, I watched all those trailers and thought it looked crap, despite already owning Burnout 2 and being fully aware of the addictive nature it had. The physics looked stupid and the whole thing seemed well over the top. I even had my doubts when I first booted it up and had my first race.

But it's turning out to be a little gem. The new crash mode is 36 times better than the one in Burnout 2 - the crashes just seem so much more realistic, the vehicles all behave more naturally and less 'wooden'. (By the way, how do you unlock more crash junctions? I've only played it for about an hour, mainly in the world tour, and only have the first junction to tinker with).

The custom soundtrack option is seamless (and by the way, the official BEST album to play this game to is the Dirtchamber Sessions by The Prodigy).

I haven't even tried Live yet, and probably won't bother until I've unlocked a load more cars and got bored with the single player, which I don't think will be anytime soon. I did go into the optimatch search thing though, and it came up with 'no games found' or something. I'm not sure if that's the dodgy servers you speak of, or my incompetence in navigating simple menus.

And as for the PGR2/Burnout 3 debate, I'll be keeping PGR2 and playing it just as often as I always did - the racing is so different that apart from the fact that both games contain cars, they have almost nothing in common.

That's 2 excellent games I've procured in 3 days. Doubt anything constructive will be getting done for the forseeable future.

Funny pathetic? OR funny sending someone into a pile-up while you drive on? Should i buy burnout 3 or 2nd sight? not normally into racers but this one is pulling me towards it. the only issue i have is, is it easy to control the car round corners?
