Advantages: Fun to takedown people, gr8 graphics, fun crash mode

Disadvantages: Gets very slightly boring after awhile

General:

Burnout 3 is the game if the year. It is a good improvement from point of impact. Main great feature is the improved crash mode and the very fun world tour with hundreds of events

Racing:

The game itself is very fun. The cool thing is takedowns. These are done by forcing other opponent cars into either the wall, cars, trams, buses or anything else to make them crash. It shows an excellent slow motion of the opponent flying in the air with a big title at the top saying : CAR TAKEDOWN. This is a very satisfying moment. That is why my favourite events are the road rage events (see later on).

Crash:

This is very fun. A great feature is having small control in slo-moiton of where to send your car if you have just come off a ramp. Also after a certain amount of cars have crashed because of u you will get a crashbreaker which means that if you press the right button you will blow up and also here when you aer flying in the air after u have blown up it is possible to control your car in slo-motion. In the world tour your total is counted up everytime you do a crash and count that as your final one . This total is counted up also to unlock new cars. If you get all 10 crash headlines (you get them for amazing crash totals in one crash) you will get a firetruck muhahahaha (i got it)

Road Rage:

Oh yeah this is fun dude. Just take them all down. Very satisfying. The point of this in the world tour is to get a certain amount of takedowns in three minutes without crashing yourself aout 3 times but for the more fun people you can just go to single event and play it and get as many as you want (without crashing much). There are basically infinite cars whch go quite slow so it is easy to get takedowns although they can take you down too. My record is 47 takedowns try and beat that. (if you do please say what you got in my guestbook).

Burnout world tour:

This is the story of the game. All you do is go through specific races or crashes and get as many medals as you can. There are normal races, road rage events, one on ones (face-off), elimination (where at the end of each lap last place gets kicked out of the race), timed run and crashes. There are lots of things and you get to play as cool cars. You build up burnout points that you get from takedowns in races and other special things to get a new car. There are special events which are very hard but if you get gold in all 10 u win a special car. There are also other special cars for getting gold in every race and every crash and other things.

Music:

i myself have enjoyed the music a lot. I made a list of all the ones i liked and downloaded them. One band on it called The F-Ups i really liked that i even bought the cd on ebay (because it is a US band so it has to be imported). Sometimes i even get slightly distracted by it.

Verdict:

Gameplay: 10/10
Graphics: 10/10
Sounds: 10/10
Longevity:8/10

Overall verdict: 10/10
