Oh this is just pure fun!

Biggest score I've managed to rack up is $15m, along with a few more over $10.

Re: Showtime - Love it!

How many Buses does it take reach those numbers?

I think the most I've hit is about eight. Haven't passed 4.5M points yet.

Re: Showtime - Love it!

I hate showtime.

I'm still 19 showtime road rule things off completing the award and it's sooooo boring.

Re: Showtime - Love it!

The idea is to crash into as many things as possible to increase the amount of damage (in dollars) caused...

You can steer with the sticks and lean the sixaxis into things to move your wreck down the road.

Your boost bar becomes an explosion, so tapping the boost button causes your car to explode forward into the traffic.

The more cars you hit, your boost bar replenishes and you can therefore keep the combo going... if you don't hit anything and stay still your boost bar will run out and showtime finishes...

(buses act as multipliers to your score, so hit a bus and yu get 2x, next bus you hit it becomes 3x etc etc etc)

did that make any sense?

Ok isn't that how to start an event? I still haven't done this before. (I only just figured out how to do burnouts half an hour ago)

Nope, L1 and R1 are the 2 shoulder buttons that are closest to you as you look down at the pad. You start races, road rages, etc with L2 + R2 but only at traffic lights. Showtimes are started anywhere you like - as long as it's a street with a name - using L1 + R1.
