Burnout 3 Shock – Published by EA, Online PlayStation 2 Exclusive!
Acclaim priced out of lap three as Burnout makes essential evolution.
It has come to light that Electronic Arts has snatched the rights for Criterion’s exceptional Burnout series away from Acclaim, as financial woes seemingly force a change of publisher for the game’s third incarnation.
What’s more, EA insiders have wasted no time in leaking information about the direction of Burnout 3 to the press, with online gaming now assured for the high-speed, responsibility-free smash-em-up. However, all online play will have to be conducted via the PlayStation 2, as EA has still failed to come to any workable agreement with Microsoft over revenue splits for the use of Xbox Live.
At present, PlayStation 2, Xbox, PC and GameCube versions are pencilled in, with a GBA offering to follow towards the end of 2004.
We’ll keep you updated on the latest shots and info in the coming months.
