Burnout rules. This was a nice surprise. I hadn't heard anything about this game until a friend showed it to me. He said it was the best racing game out there, so I had to ask the question. What about Gran Turismo? He said forget the graphics, just try it. Well I did and I have been playing it every day since. He was right, just turn down the music and turn up all of the other sounds. You don't miss the music when you hear the sound of your body crashing through the windshield at 150 mph. I've never seen a racing game like this that really makes you feel like your going that fast. The crashes are what makes this game. My friends and I noticed that just before we hit something we are actually ducking our heads and closing our eyes. Its that real, I kid you not. I love my GT3, but I think this one is more fun. Don't forget to select Dolby Surround Sound, you'll really hear it when you enter the tunnels. 3.2.1. GO

"Burnout" is an okay game. It's fun to go whizzing through rush hour traffic at 130 mph. It's therapeutic in the sense that you can do stuff in this game that you wish you could do in real life.

The thing that makes me give this game two stars are the crashes. Yeah, they look realistic and cool and you can replay your crashes from about five different angles after you finish the track. But when you're racing someone and you crash, the game shows you how you crashed from three different views all while chewing up time on your clock. You can't skip the crash replays nor is there a setting preference to turn them off. It really throws off the flow of the game and irritates the living heck out of you!

You're racing along and you crash with 1:15 left on the clock. The computer kicks in and shows you how you crashed from 3 different slow-motion perspectives, but when you regain control of the game and race, you've lost 5 seconds thanks to the computer. What a gyp!

It was an okay rental, but I'm kind of bummed I wasted $... on it. If you want a good racing game, pick up "Gran Turismo 3". If you want a game that whips every other car game out there, grab "Grand Theft Auto 3". If you want to be annoyed by endless crash replays and limited playability, "Burnout" is for you.

Burn out does many things for you it makees tou really,really (ect...) Hystrical! cruising down the highway at 130! is not that good! If you know what I mean! Burnout is a good game for Non-madness People!
