I don't play racing games that often but this is a exception. I have never played a racing game like burnout before. It has fantastic graphics, sound, and controls.They made it so it's just one huge map that you can do just what ever you want.
Like GTA, but.....

The game is like GTA in the fact that it is a sandbox/ open world game, but it does only evolve cars and no one else, except that annoying DJ. Its fun if you like any other burnout games and if you enjoy car games in general, but don't expect to see you favorite car, because all the cars have fake names, so if you know the build and design of the car you can choose your favorite.

This game as you may know, rules, the graphics are awesome, the sounds are great, the controls are great too. This game's crashes are amazing, the cars crash as realistically as they can make it and it works, cars jump, roll bash in to walls, crush like cans, The races are great but thanks to the new open map setting one wrong turn will screw you over, so it's a lot harder to win now, but still fun, from the marked man where you get to one point without totally destroying your car( there are black cars that will make it their mission to take you down) to the awesome road rage, to normal races. The dissapointing part of the game is that they replaced the legendary crash mode with showdown mode, while it fun, it isn't as fun as crash mode was. This game is on the long side took me 5 to 6 days to get the A license, now all i have to do is win every event to get the elite license, but the credits rolled so i feel like i finished it anyways. A must have ESPECIALLY if your gonna play online. Review: graphics: great crashes and car models and damage. Sound: the cars sound great and the crashing sounds even better, BUUUUT the soundtrack's really sucks, i had to put my own soundtrack using the my controller's guide button. Controls: comfortable and they do their job, never felt out of place or uncomfortable playing the game. Fun factor: a fun game to play, especially online or with a friend.
Awsome

Well, I, having never owned a Burnout game before, did not know what to expect. But, after spending some time with it, this game is masterfully crafted. The seamless, menu-free, gameplay is a load of fun. The races are interesting as (unlike other racering games) they are not on a set course. You can weave and drift through the city as much as you want, aslong as you end up at the finish line. And when you're not burning rubber, you can at anytime press both the bumbers, sending your car into a rolling, bouncing weapon of mass destruction. Great timing and set up makes that aspect tremendously fun. Seeing a traffic jam at n intersection, then rolling through and destroying everything, is a simple yet great pastime. In need of a racing game? This is a must-have.
