Almost got all the golds!
Ugh. I don’t mind more the encroaching of the definition of retro, but can we have sub classifications? Burnout 3 has to be generation 7 or 8 in consoles right? My retro ends at Gen 3…
Now please remove yourselves from my lawn before I feel the need to apologize at you for asking you to remove yourself from my lawn.
I’m playing on a Trinitron that’s gotta count for something!
I think it’s Gen 6 (PS2/Xbox). But at the time the Gen 6 consoles were new, the Gen 3 that you consider retro was about 20 years old, just like these consoles are now. I think they still fit the label of retro pretty well, but it’s always hard to consider something newer than your childhood as “old” tbh
Burnout 3 is a PS2/Xbox game, 6th gen. It definitely holds up better than a lot of 7th gen games though.
Saw the Burnout series in this youtube video once.
Never played it, it does look like fun though, I’d like to play it sometime.
That was really interesting, thanks for sharing!
That looks really nice! What cables are you using on your CRT?
I am using component out of the PS2
That makes sense. Looks awesome!
My favourite racing game of all time. Too bad the franchise was ruined by EA.
More “left to rot” than ruined. Paradise was great too, and then there was nothing until Paradise Remastered (unless you count that one mobile game).
Paradise was great, but I think strict tracks are way better than finding your way from point A to point B.
It’s such a buzzkill to lose a race because you took a turn you shouldn’t have after blazing through the first 3/4 of it in first. For a game that requires twitch reactions at high speeds, it certainly was a choice to make players have to constantly take their eyes off the road to find the map.
It was so frustrating. It would be better if they had tracks set up after you start a race.
Burnout 2 is my favourite. Spent so many hours back then taking it in turns playing with mates. This and NFS Underground…
There is a NFS underground 2 demo on here that really made me miss that game. The little Nokia phone notification sound was a huge nostalgia hit
