Haha

I'll be on for a few hours this afternoon but I'm off out tonight for the wife's birthday so I doubt I'll be in any state to play when I get home

You have to come on burnout tonight!

Drunken night out = funny takedown cam pics

Gametrailers video review up.

They said the PS3 version looks marginally better.

LOL! This is true. In fairness, she's actually good about it. We don't watch the TV much and she just likes to relax with a book where I relax with a game, but we do spend time together I promise - she's not a Burnout Widow yet

Bet she was nearly a widow in your burnout revenge days - i remember staying up till all hours some nights playing you and OCuK crew

I need to get online!!

So....
what do I need to do?
I've got my Live! cam ready

Is there a setting to go online? Or go to a specific part of the map? How do I look for games? I've just been driving round doing challenges so far..

Did some of this Showtime stuff last night. Not as good as Crash Mode tbh, but it has some promise. I am already having dreams of having the highest scores on my friends list for EVERY SINGLE STREET in Paradise City

I will be online on the PS3 version most of the afternoon if anyone wants to do some online stuff (which I ain't done much of).

Just got given this after doing the burning route challenges. Trying to do them all, got 5 more to do with the cars i have, looking forward to the cars i get, if the one below is anything to go by the better cars i have will be immense!

This car has a Veyron rear, Koenigsegg front and F430 styling, cool!

Sorry for the quality of pic, rubbish cam on phone.

For those with both consoles torn between versions IGN's head-to-head recommends PS3, they claim 360 version suffers from pop-up and that the frame-rate is lower ("40-50fps") as opposed to PS3's solid 60fps.

Don't shoot the messenger.

My copy hasn't even been dispatched yet.

Thanks...I be getting the PS3 version........

(plus i would have to pay for live gold to play online with the xbox360 version

)

That car looks ace, I want! Shame it's not possible to progress your license in multiplayer, or do the challenges contribute?

Not sure, got the original car once i got the A License and then you can do the burning route and get the car that i pictured.
