Looks like some amazing racing, Im totally sick over the fact that I missed it. Never again! Next time, there will be prizes awarded - cash, console hardware, games, perhaps even a trip to Vegas! We need to get the sport of Burnout 3 off the ground, and keep it flying high into the future. You did a great job with the Tournament Bender Im glad to see it was such as success. Going into 2009 Burnout 3 looks stronger than ever.

Tig had over 9 gig of footage from the semi/fianl. I think he only saved a few after going through a most of them to pick clips for this vid.

It seems kind of right that it ended in a tie rather than do a tie-break because it means the next event can be the tie-breaker or someone different might get a shot.

If there'd been an MLG/Street Fighter Tourney crowd watching it all they'd have gone crazy on the last race (and lots of other places throughout the tourney). It was so dramatic and intense.

Also great moments, like 4 cars in a tight 2x2 grid formation drifting around the Alpine curves before the tollbooths, or getting the car scraped both sides on Downtown as 2 trucks come from either side in the pillars.

People keep on buying the game on the dashboard too. It remains an open revenue stream for EA, so there's every reason to keep the online running.

In the next couple weeks we should do number 2. Maybe only get 2 or 3 rooms or we could change the format to mix rooms up and have a league leading to the final.

You're welcome to help organise it chronic, then you'd be sure to make it.
