XB Burnout Revenge review:4 stars (Great sequel) - EA have done a bang up job with Burnout Revenge. Although gameplay has hasn't changed that much and only minor improvemnts were made this is nothing short of spectacular. I would have to give this 4.5 out of 5 2 thumbs up all the way4 stars (One of helluva racer) - First things first, the Burnout series has always been about one thing: the crashes. Not the actual game crashing (though it has occured twice ironnically) but the cars in the game grinding and shunting against one another. There are five different racing events which include race, eliminator, road rage, crash, and traffic attack. Race and Crash are what I digged the most, the high adrenaline and exhilirating action of Race is unbelieveable. Cars can top 209 mph, with nice blur effects thrown in. This game allowes you to ram other non-racing cars into your oppenents. The game is easier than Burnout 3 but the tracks are much better and prettier looking. Crash mode is a Burnout series trademark, the basis is to get your car ot cause the biggest pile-up as possible, and sometimes you have to work around which spot to hit and such, then afterowrds you are awarded a medal depending on how much vehicle damage you did. And crashbreakers are back and badder than ever. In Burnout 3, you could only use them in Crash, now they are available in all the other modes (After reaching a certain rank). Crashbreakers are when you explode your car much like a kamikaze to destroy oppenents or cause more vehicle damage in Crash mode. Speed plays a major part in this game, you have boost bar which you can increase or fill up by doing certain "risks". Multiplayer for the Burnout series was never intersting nor any fun so stick with the single player aspect of the game. This game receives 4 stars overall for being glitchy at times and it won't take too long to reach the "Elite" rank. Still, this thing is hard to put down once you get into it.4 stars (Best Burnout Yet) - With a name like Burnout Revenge, you might expect the latest game in the series to be a little rougher, a little meaner. And you'd be right. While it isn't a total reinvention, Burnout Revenge makes significant alterations to the Burnout formula that essentially render every other game in the series obsolete.
Burnout Revenge might not be the revolution that Burnout 3 was, but in the end, it changes more than enough to make it feel like a very different game. It's a technical marvel, but more importantly than that, it's one of the most exciting racing games ever made. Unless you don't have the reflexes to handle it, Burnout Revenge is a must-own game, especially for fans of online competition.
