The cars all handle in an arcade fashion making them perfect for special moves such as drifting to gain boost.Īs mentioned before in the World Tour you visit three areas of the globe USA, Europe and Asia. One thing the developers have removed is the indicator lights telling you a corner is coming up, instead relying on signs and other things blocking a players way. They also feature unique damage models with this being shown best in Road Rage where damage is not repaired after each accident. You will find a wide variety ranging from coupe style cars right through to cars which resemble an Indy Car but the main thing is that they all travel extremely fast.
The replay value is significantly enhanced because of this but the implementation is so well done that most of the time when you do complete these goals you won't realize it until the game informs you.Īlthough for obvious reasons the Burnout franchise has never had licensed vehicles they are progressively getting closer and closer and there is no doubt that some of the vehicles in Burnout 3: Takedown have been inspired by real world makes and models. Other goals include getting your crash in the headline news by reaching a money target, performing signature takedowns which is making a car crash in a particular area of a circuit, and others. You progress in most cases if you're in the top three but usually only gold will get you something new like a car. Not only is the goal to become the champion of the world on the world tour but also you have tasks which are not compulsory but will unlock extras in the game. One thing which is new for Burnout in the third title is goals for players to get. You can and will have some gigantic crashes in this game especially in the crash mode where the aim is to cause as much damage as possible in a monetary fashion. Running into a petrol tanker fast enough will cause your car to explode, running into a truck carrying barrels will cause the barrels to fall off and this effect really comes across during the crash mode. To go with this the developers have come up with brand new vehicles to smash into and new effects to enhance the gameplay. You feel like you're traveling at a million miles an hour but don't ever feel out of control and when you first start playing you will feel an insane wow factor.
This ability is present in racing as well and the AI won't just let you push them into a wall, they are the most aggressive they have ever been and will stop at nothing to get your car in little pieces.Īlthough Burnout has always focused on high speed racing, the sense of speed in this game is truly unbelievable. Road Rage introduces the Takedown move which you score boost with and this is basically guiding your opponent into a wall or other object. However the brand new mode called Road Rage really epitomizes what the concept of Burnout 3 is about. The returning game modes (racing, time attack and crash) pretty much remain the same except that the crash mode is a lot more cinematic and you can really do some serious damage. All the racing disciplines (road rage, racing, crash, and time attack) are featured in the tour and progressively get harder as more and more tracks are unlocked for you to tackle. As the name implies you travel the world completing goals such as winning a race to unlock new cars and areas to play in. You can at any time race on tracks that you have unlocked via the other game mode to practice or just relive a great race but really where most of your time will be spent is the Burnout World Tour.
There is two main game modes featured in the game with numerous racing disciplines on offer to race in. New modes, new tracks, new locations and the biggest addition of all, online play. Burnout 3: Takedown has taken the franchise to the next level and Criterion really has put in everything bar the kitchen sink. Most of the time its not the racing that impresses you but the high level of detail that the developers have always put into the crashes.

For those of you who haven't played the series before, Burnout basically revolves around high speed racing with huge crashes in cities avoiding traffic.
