Burnout 3: Takedown (PS2)

Burnout 3- Takedown The Ultimate Arcade Experience. Developed by Criterion Games and one of many great games published by Electronic Arts, its bound to be a sure thing. I first played this game at a friends house when it was first released in 2004 and my impression of it remains the same today... I love it!! A few years ago, I received a PS2 as a gift for christmas. As I am not very into console games, I used it mainly for playing DVD's. I then came across Burnout 3 , remembered how good it was and had to get my hands on it!! I have played quite a few racing games in the past and after playing Burnout I find that it seems to ...  Read the complete review

After playing Gran Turismo for the thousandth time I realised I was getting more and more fed up with the game, running the racing line, braking sensibly for corners may have been great the first 999 times but I needed something else, something tremendous. Burnout 3 was my choice, 2 days later the game slid through my letterbox I whooped with joy and rammed it into my PlayStation 2.

This game could not be more different to Gran Turismo, it is ...  Read the complete review

EA Games have realised that not all racing game players are worried about observing the Highway Code and have built a game around that fact. Not only can you ram, shunt and scrape your opponents or other road users in Burnout 3 but it is ...  Read the complete review

This game is brilliant, first of all it is extremely fun for most. You can do many things on this game, racing, crashes and online/multiplayer for both. This game is great to play on your own or with others. I personally used to play this a lot with my dad and it is so much fun. Although you have a rather limited choice of tracks to race from, there is quite a lot of cars to choose from, which links to the fun of unlocking cars on single-player mode. For many children, most of the joy is from the satisfaction of unlocking better and better cars. Furthermore, most children love fast cars and fast games, and they love it even more with nitro which is very well used in ...  Read the complete review
