This thread has been linked to the game 'Burnout 3'.
Up for LIVE play this weekend? Haven't been on LIVE in ages and this looks like the only Xbox game that is of any interest this year, for me anyway. Pre-ordered the US version last week and I am really looking forward to it. I thought the first two were average at best but judging from preview/reviews and video footage this looks to be in a compeltely different league.
Anyone up for Burnout 3 LIVE?

Just read someone's mini-review on the OXM forums (he claims to already have the Oz version - apparently released today. I reckon he's just got the pirate version. Arr).
Apparently their only gripes with it is the scoring system is a little uninvolving - just shoot for the Gold/Silver/Bronze and that's it.
Also, there is no weather feature in the game - Sunshine all the way through.
That's the bit that got me thinking. Imagine 6-Player Road Rage in the pouring rain at midnight! Hectic,insane and madness are words that do not even begin to describe it!
He also said Edge should have given it 10, then he got pounced on by people saying no game deserves 10 - a fair point as they'll never be the 'best' forever.
Well, apparently the Aussie version is out now and it's supposedly compatible with our machines, what with being PAL and all. anyone tempted to buy it?
Personally I'm going to wait until Thursday

One of those Gay Weekends away eh Tilt? LOL
I'm getting it, I don't want to play with you lot on Live though as I'm afraid of catching gay.
Well that and I'm most likely gonna be away next weekend anyway.

I'd be surprised if it got any less than a 9.0, but this is OXM we are talking about, I think the US one gave it 9.1 (Check gamerankings.com). Bullet - see you then!
It got 9/10 in Edge - which is quite an achievement.
Spike, I'll most likely be on all Thurs night and all Saturday (well, until 17:30). I can also make Friday, from 14:30 till 17:30.

What did it get in OXM, is it worth it with out live?
What time are we playing, I'm at work til 10 on friday but I'll be on thurs night getting some practice in, I'll be on asap on friday though, I'm also off work all of sat as the g/f is off to uni (noooooo!) so I'll need something to take my mind of her leaving! Can't wait for uni, Games Design will rock muchly.
I bet I'm the first one to get rammed into an oncoming lorry.
Should rock online, I mean what's better than ramming someone off the road and then all having a good laugh at the poor guy who's the victim :D
Hope to have it on Thursday.
Hey Bullett, Poison and I played road rage for hours :D
Such a great mode.
