Burnout Revenge.

[Ton]

On a sudden whim I decided recently I wanted a Driving game. Having severely enjoyed Burnout III, I felt this was the only choice. So today for £14.99 I picked it up , and I dont regret it.

The U rating fooled a lot of people into thinking " usual, easy driving game". How wrong can you be. This game like Gran Turismo FORCES you to shave milliseconds of your times, and despite the shortcuts this isn't easy even if you boost the entire way, and take many shortcuts, the time limits for gold are hugely tight. Also the normal race's due to Takedown's are very difficult, the enemies will target you and go after you, not mindlessly ignore you. And though traffic with it's back to you can be moved, traffic facing you is faster and still hard to dodge.

But it's not a sit- there- for- hours- in- an- attempt- to- get- ever- better- lap- times. It's also fun. Crash challenges, and traffic wrecker offer a chance to think less and relax, especially traffic wrecker. Not to much crash challenges, that unless hit perefectly and lacking multiplier's of the other games will take a few goes, to figure out how to do.

I HIGHLY recommend this game. Best driving game on PS2. In my opinion, and magasines.

i agree i have had burnout since december and i love it. all i ever do on it is the traffic wrecker because i love to see stuff blow up. pretty much the best game i have ever played

burnout 3 was a lot better. the mechanics, while simple, were eloquent, and it was one of those old school euphoric rushes when you played it.

burnout revenge wasnt all that great. they tried introducing all these new stuff that really didnt make sense. multiple pathways = less physical contact with your rivals, revenge marker is a stupid advancement of a simple takedown award from burnout 3, and that meter thing you have to do in the beginning of a crash level...dont even get me started on that. its a friggin golf game mechanic, but at least they know it was a stupid idea (they removed it from the xbox 360 version)
