Got my hands on what I'm assuming is a near-final, if not final build of CT3. It wasn't retail though, aka it was burned on cheesy discs.

Anyway, my amazing CT skills got me through a good portion of the minigames already (played about an hour total). Did all of level 1, and most of level 2. They kick ass, but there seems to be an awful lot of zig-zag boards. Which, by itself, makes the games much more challenging. The minigames are good, but I would've liked to see more variety, like CT2 had.

All 12 characters (4 per game) were avaliable to use during the minigames, but (granted I haven't unlocked anything except maps), the levels only allowed you to select the 4 characters from that game. West Coast for CT1, Small Apple for CT2, and Glitter Oasis for CT3.

Now anyone who has played the demo know the slowdown problems. I only experience slowdown once, and it was for a short amount of time. I was using Bixbite, I doubt it makes a difference, but when I used the first guy (name slips my mind), I've played about 3 times and haven't seen any slowdown.

Anyway, this game ownz. I'll play some more tomorrow to check for slowdown, but all in all, this game is looking sweet!
