Sounds like its going to be an improved port too. *gets my vote*

I *REALLY* hope this is true.
the main call of burnout 3 on the other systems is online play.
i hope thats not dropped.

This better be true because I couldnt get ahold of a Cube or PS2 version of Burnout 2 for some reason.

Burnout2 was a lot of fun, the crash mode was probably one of the most fun I've played in a racing game this generation. One of the Rush games holds the top spot for all time.

If this is true.........did our bitching on this forum changed EA/Criterion Games minds?

If Burnout 3 is indeed coming to the Cube, then i'll be very happy.
I don't care if there is no online play for the Cube version.

Meh, Burnout 2 is still 60 € here...

Well, I'm not surprised if it's true. I told everyone to wait and see. They claimed Burnout 2 was only coming to the PS2, and we all saw how that turned out. The release may have been late and extremely limited, but it was released.

Hopefully things will be better this time around as a result of Burnout 3 having a "better" publisher than Burnout 2 did.

"GameStop has started listing an estimated release date for Burnout 3 on GameCube"
LOL.

I want burnout 3 to have a LAN mode, though it'll be ok if they don't put one in there, but I love LAN gaming better than online stuff. It's funner to play games like Counter Strike and Mario Kart w/ people in the same room.

I dunno, Serious Sam GCN should've had LAN play, but didnt.

I think EA held a gun to Criterion's head. "Look, they've PAID to get that game and they don't like being dissappointed, capiche?"

I'm actually sure its criterion that most likely convinced EA. Or maybe they just got smart and looked at the Sales Statistics.

I found burnout got boring rather quick and was way to arcady for my tastes. I much prefer a realistic racer. Has anyone here played TOCA Driver 2? It is IMO the best realistic racer I have ever played.

Syl Aran: BS, Criterion were the ones to decide BO3 would not come to the Cube.

KDR: how do you know that?( i'm just wondering, not trying to call you a liar or anything.)
I hope this is true, I have been waiting for a good arcade style racer that isnt futruristic.
Title: RE:Burnout 3 GC bound
Post by: Uglydot on April 30, 2004, 06:44:29 PM
I do love a good Arcade racer. Rush 2 is still one of my favorite racing games of all time. Just fun to run around super fast in cars even if it isn't realistic.

Sorry, can't find the article anymore. I've read it somewhere, but I never remember where.

Why would they not want it out on the cube? It sold more on cube, and they enhanced the port specifically for cube. (Likewise, teh xbox port was even enhanced over that)
I read a (very long) interview with the creater of the company, the interview just avoided the topic alltogether. Please, show proof of this.

I would assume that we will know for sure at E3. It would be a nice suprise. I picked up Burnout for $15 at Best Buy a while back, I figured if it sucks, I would only be out $15, so no biggie. I was IGN reading a review on Burnout2, when I noticed theyre store had it marked down to $30. So I ordered it that day, another great buy. Burnout is my favorite car racing series out right now.

I'm still hoping of some possibility for a new Rush game....
Title: RE:Burnout 3 GC bound
Post by: Renny on May 01, 2004, 09:27:16 AM
If there was another Rush game it wouldn't be from the same developer. They were axed recently. I'd prefer to just see the series die, rather than become something else [2050: Driving Metamorphosis?]. Besides, we have Burnout to enjoy this generation.

Just incase anyone was still questioning the validity of the report, under features for each version on Game Stop, the PS2 version of Burnout 3 is the only one to have mention of online play. This makes since because EA is publishing it and from what I understand EA does not like Live at all. Of course the GCN version doesn’t have online support either, even though it has the same style setup as Sony, because no one besides Sega knows that there are modems and BBAs available for the GCN.
Edit: Before anyone says anything, yes I am aware that there are reports that MS and EA have inked out a deal for EA Live support but nothing has been said officially. Infact both parties both say that talks are continuing whenever they are asked about Live.
