Burnout 3: Takedown
For players using the PCSX2 emulator, a 100% completion memory card save file is the ultimate "shortcut" to experiencing the game's full high-octane potential without the 30+ hour grind. Using a completed save file instantly transforms the game from a linear progression experience into a comprehensive sandbox of vehicular destruction. Review: The 100% Completion Experience
- NTSC-U (North America): Serial usually starts with
SLUS_210.50. - PAL (Europe/Australia): Serial usually starts with
SLES_525.59. - NTSC-J (Japan): Serial usually starts with
SLPM_656.82.
- Fix: Re-download the file. Ensure the MD5 hash matches the source. This usually happens when the file was downloaded from a site that "fattened" it with ads.
