you use the left stick to level the car out when rolling so u dont land on your roof, although to be honest its not that much of a help

I'm on about 360ish and feeling the same. I refuse to use maps etc in sandbox games. I am sure I will find them eventually, loads else to do while I am looking for them.

Not used any maps yet either. But was surprised how many there are in the mountains area - far left hand side of map. There's a few very well hidden one there

Can honestly see me playing this for a long time at least just to get the better cars so i have a chance online.

Can someone explain the showdown to me?

How do I start it?

You'll need to do 4 events and win them first (road road, burning route, stunt, etc)

Once you've done 4, you'll get a message saying that at ANY TIME in the game, you press L-Bumper + R-Bumper and it'll activate showtime.

Awsome thanks, never noticed the message!

A whole new thing to do :)

Yes, finally have all the smashes, jumps and billboards :cool:

I like the car you get for all the jumps, a nice Carbon Jansen X12 with Stunt Boost, now to finish my A license and go for the next license.

Nice one!

This morning I got all the billboards and was presented with a nice carbon car :)
I have 391/400 smashes and 46/50 jumps. Three of those jumps are in Palm Heights - not sure how I'm missing three in that one area, been driving around forever it seems.

How much have you guys driven already in Paradise City .....?..... I am on my A license with 15 to go to the next one and have driven 1500 miles.

I think I am closer to 2.25k miles, I am on Elite license (with 60 events to go). But I have not done all smashes/billboards/jumps which i imagine will rack up drive times a bit as you explore.

I am hoping that on the way to Elite I find most by accident and then will have very few to complete.

Gimme a shout when you are doing some online challenges, as I notice you are online a lot on ps3 (I see your invites, but normally just pop on to complete 1 or 2 events so never accept).

397/400 crashes, done boards and jumps. A license, 1000 miles, 28 wins to go. Reward for jumps is quite awesome.

I refuse to use a map because ticking off what i've done would be impossible, because I smashed every gate completely down, so there is no trace of them.

2 crashes needed in white mountain, 1 in silver lake.

Any hidden paths you know off? Been driving round all morning, haven't seen any.

That website community stuff I mentioned the other day is live now. I have been told by someone working on it upstairs that it is a cut back version though because of problems with. EA bloody suck, they are having problems with the user login/gamertag linking, JUST like with ea. skate.

Does my head in. Great ideas, badly implemented (not by my company I might add, we are using their tech :p)
