from the first 2 min... looks and controls amazingly...

Same sort of controls from previous burnout games? Easy to drift ? boost ? fast and fuckin furious ? Can u play with just the 2 sticks, one for steering the other for acel / brake (please please be in it!) ?!
 
Within the options menu is only this...

"Xbox Live Vision" On/Off/Friends only

"Music Volume"

"SFX Volume"

"Tips" On/Off


the right stick controls the camera

The D-Pad brings up the menu system (D-pad right)

What is the Vision camera used for?

The mug-shot. The camera takes a picture of your opponent right at the second when you take him down and sends it to you.

edit: Brilliant feature imo. I fully expect sad faces painted on cardboards and/or genitals.

Vision cam is used to take pics of the people u take down durring online play. Same for the ps3 and it's eye toy.

FFFUUUUCCCCKKKKK


Hype-10 Maybe I can confirm D pad steering on there official message board. Sorry I just hate using the analog stick.
 
Played it for about 5mins(weak, I know). Not terribly impressed with the graphics, I'm playing on x360, however, the framerate is absolutely fantastic. One thing that I didn't like right off the bat is the crashes. It sort of shows a replay when you crash, probably just need to get used to it. Going to play more in a bit when I'm done with some things.

What the ??? Using D-Pad, in a racing game ???

A game like burnout for some reason just works with the D-Pad. maybe its because you're going too fast and you tend to overcompensate when you use the analog stick. at least thats how i am.
 
Compusa is gonna want its advertising money back, first ad you see in the game... too funny since they'll all be closed by the time this is out.

The problem would be to record stuff as close as possible to one another when we are a thousand km apart ;)

Well, I have an idea.

We just start the demos and go forward and crash. That's it :lol

Hopefully traffic is the same so we end up crashing in the very same way O_O
 
woot! been looking forward to this, it will compelte my racing trinitary of Forza, PGR, Burnout.
just on way to work and have set it off.

Impressions? Details?
 
BTW, the second i read the thread title i raced home from work, put the d/l on and raced back. I hope the boss didn't notice, wish me luck.
 
Being able to invlite friends that are in other 360 games and on the dashboard is enough for me to pickup the 360 version
