I wonder if they're going to honor the prise as i'm assuming this has to be a typo since BO3 just came out recently.

Shipping is 5.10, but even still, 26.43 is not bad. This game is very good from what I've read.

Seems to be okay, I just placed an order. The site is very slow though.

Thanks, Scorch. I ordered two. I've been playing my brothrt-in-law's copy... I haev to say I'm not usually a racing fan, but this game gives me more of a sense of speed than any of the other (admitadly few) I've tried.
And the crashing stuff is more fun than I thought it would be. Definitely a game I should get for myself, so I did.

Thank you! I wanted the game but didn't want to pay more than around $25 for it so I ordered it
Huh. Maybe it just hates me. I click on the link and the site comes up ok, but where the order was the first time the frame is blank.

yeah, would be nice for xbox, but a good deal still if you have a ps2.. i just have way too many 4.99 games to play before i buy anything else.. (32 to be exact)

I'm thinking about buying this, is it worth it even if I don't have a network adapter?
So totally ordered. Wasn't slow at all. Been pretty sure I'd have to spend $50 as Fry's (WA) sold out when it was $34.99 there before I could get it.

If burnout 2 is any indication, Yes!

Thanks for your answer, zakk. I only played a demo of Burnout 2 (I enjoyed it!), and I hope this game is great. Still, I hope it provides alot of single player challenge.

Makes me question if the ps2 version is that bad. Any reviews or testimonial for this version? Is this a sign to have waited for the x-box version? What are the differences? Well I ordered it anyway for $26.43...Good deal Scorch....Maybe there could be a CAG Burnout 3 clan race in the future assuming this deal goes through....

now... i'm gonna sound like a real cheapass but does anyone have any discount codes or anything? The shippings a killer. :oops:
I mean I usually only spend a maximum of $25 dollars on any game

The graphics are overall worse, but there are a few nicer effects. The online play is apparently a bit more stable, but not everyone can communicate, and theres nothing like hearing someone you just rammed into a wall screaming obcenities.

Is this a screwup on their part? Seems way too good to be true.
While processing your order, we experienced difficulty in obtaining the proper
+authorization. At this time, your order has been cancelled for your
+protection.
:cry:
I even see the order in my paypal account, no idea wtf they are talking about.

I got the cancellation email as well. Not sure why since the card I used had PLENTY of credit on it. I tried it a second time with another card just to see if it works. It may be possible that sony has security measures to prevent screw ups like these. Time will tell.

Hmm... I Have one of those Visa Debt/Credit Cards. It's pretty unreliable as a Credit Card. USually it screws up when I am asked for a security number. It has the three digit security code, but somehow it doesn't jive right with the Card's number. If I use it without Security code I have no problems...
Anyway, I placed my order today with my visa, and not only did everything work fine, but I got a special "Visa Security screen." At first I paused thinking it was a scam. But the screen included the name of my bank. To have that it had to be hooked into the Visa System...
I'd like to know if the people who are getting cancellations have ordered with visa. Maybe their site is geared towards that. I know someone mentioned they got a cancellation order with Paypal.

A MasterCard was used for my order and I didn't get a cancellation notice, if that helps anybody with this situation. I did, however (like everyone else), get a backorder notification.
The paypal card I used, uses mastercard's system. The second card I used, my friend's, was a visa system card.
