Today Electronic Arts officially confirmed their publishing contract with Criterion for the upcoming Burnout 3. The first two games in the series were released on GameCube and sold well on the system, but EA's newest press release mentions versions for PlayStation 2 and Xbox only. This is certainly disappointing news for the game's many fans in the GameCube camp, though it's important to note that a GameCube version could be announced at a later date. The Burnout series is developed on Criterion's own RenderWare middleware platform, which aids in porting games from one console platform to another.
We'll continue following this story and will update it if any new information surfaces.
