New and awesome,
This review is from: Burnout: Revenge (Xbox) (Video Game)
I don't get it. All I keep seeing almost everywhere are user reviews moaning because this isn't like Burnout 3. Well, potential purchaser, that's absolutely right - this isn't Burnout 3, but that's the point. This is an evolved version of the racer, and you'll either love it or hate it. The big difference here is the traffic checking syste, Basically this means that you can knock small and medium sized traffic on your side of the road out of the way. This is what seems to have caused all the fuss, as many users are saying that this makes the game too easy, and Burnout is all about watching the road or crash and burn. However, you still crash if you hit large same-way traffic or anything thats coming at you or side on. So burning the wrong way down a highway to get that boost is still as glorious as ever. Only now we've got better graphics, unbelievably well-designed tracks with multiple routes and mind-blowing jumps, evil AI that just won't forget your last takedown and a whole host of other beauties. Not Burnout 3, but Burnout Revenge. A new and different game.

This review is from: Burnout: Revenge (Xbox) (Video Game)
Without a doubt one of the best car games i've ever played..
Burnout Revenge is even better than Burout 3: Takedown. There's lots more races, cars, and challenges. This game is as intense as ever and never fails to keep you on the edge. The gameplay here is brilliant, the tweaks to the racing mode with vertical takedowns, shortcuts, crashbreakers and traffic checks make the game this much more fun. The music doesn't seem to have changed much, although i usually have my own going in the background. My favourite thing is being able to smash up my car and everybody elses (basically go mad) without worying about insurance..!! Fantastic fun..!!

This review is from: Burnout: Revenge (Xbox) (Video Game)
Firstly, I loved Burnout Takedown. It was awesome and it didn't leave my Xbox for months. This had to be even better I told myself and to some degree it is.
Graphic wise, it's superb. Fast, smooth and detailed. You can easily find yourself pitching over a cliff or into a wall just checking out the scenery. Blink, and you will miss it. If you wear contact lenses, wear your glasses playing this, I've lost a number of lenses after blinking following long periods of staring so as not to crash! Which leads me nicely onto the crash mode. In the previous Burnouts, a lot has been made of these crash junctions. For some reason they seem to have been neglected here. This is my first problem with the game. You can't just play a selection of your favourite junctions, you need to pick the stage you want to play and can only pick one at a time. Sometimes it's nice to take a break from racing (and losing contact lenses) and it's not as flowing as previous games. Still, the explosions are immense and are quite satisfying. Now Burnout really comes into it's own online. Via Xbox Live you can really test your skills. Think you're the best? You're not. Online it's a different monster completely. Hours of play will lead to success and you'll play against some seriously impressive people. Online however leads me to my second critisism. Chat. I don't want a chat screen to appear in the lobby when waiting to start a game. If a couple of kids want to text each other, fine, but why EA/Criterion couldn't make it private I'll never know. It doesn't even really ruin the game but it's a needless detraction. Still, I spend most of my time when paying this online. Track selection is also a little disappointing. You'll learn the tracks pretty quickly but the addition of alternate routes and jumps is nice. Next time Criterion, PLEASE give us downloadable tracks, this game would be even more awesome! To sum up, looks great, plays well, looses you lenses and give you that little known condition, Burnout Finger (long time players will understand). Buy this. It's a must have Live game despite the niggles. You know you want to.
