In case you didn't know, Undertow is available for free download now. But get it quick if you want it, because the free-ness ends on Monday.

And there's a DMC4 demo! w00t.

TBH i think this latest burnout is a travesty. its like theyve taken the NFS underground team and added them to the burnout team, bar the handling and some of the crash effects its now need for speed: burnout not Burnout Paradise

You have to find races etc, and as there is no route you have to navigate yourself which means pausing to look at the map every minute which is annoying. Even then you find yourself missing a turn/going the wrong way and then have a few minute detour by which time you're in last place :s-smilie:

There's a navigation compass bit at the top of the screen to show you were you should be racing to and how far away it is.

The compass is just that; a compass. Knowing the general direction of the finishline isn't the problem. You can be going in the right direction but take a road that doesn't have an exit until you've gone too far.

Hasn't happened to me so far.

It's a good game, fun online.

What! :s-smilie:
I'm saving this till after my Jan exams, I hope its not that bad, I love Burnout, esp. 3!
It is a step backwards. If you can, play the demo/a mates/or even rent it before spending the money :s-smilie:

You're supposed to get to know the routes yourself, that was their intention as far as i can gather. The idea is that you use freeburn to get to know the city and then you won't have to keep looking at the map, you get to know the shortcuts by driving them and then in a race its all much more natural. It also means they don't have to stick invisible barriers everywhere.

Nope, you can renew. People don't buy it coz they think it won't work, and stores use to put it on sale coz they thought it was out dated stock. It'll work. I googled that **** :cool:
Really? I thought they never worked, how i was wrong all this time :eek:

I got my sub running until feb 2009 now, all for free.

This is why i now love live again.
