![]() ![]() After earning enough stars, your rank increases and each rank comes with it’s own set of events. In each event, you’re rated based on your actions and driving skills in the form of stars. The World Tour consists of multiple series of events. It is a little disappointing that there are no single player modes outside of World Tour but, luckily, it should keep you occupied for a while. When it comes to the single player, the World Tour is it. This is when you take an opponent down from above and it’s pretty cool when you do. One new type worth mentioning is vertical takedowns. You can still perform takedowns in the normal ways and signature and aftertouch takedowns return. Traffic checking also grants you boost and you can take down opponents by checking traffic vehicles into them. However, you can only check vehicles driving in the same direction as you and you will crash if you drive into any oncoming traffic vehicles or oversized vehicles like big trucks and buses. You can now drive into traffic vehicles, pushing them out of the way, otherwise known as checking them. It adds a whole new dynamic to the experience. The biggest new addition in Revenge is Traffic Checking. You should consider these stats when choosing your vehicle because they can affect your vehicle’s performance on the road. Most vehicles allow you to change their color and they all have different stats in crashbreaker force, weight, and boost speed. There is a lot of vehicles in the game and most of them need to be unlocked. None of this is new so Burnout 3 veterans will feel right at home and newcomers should be able to easily grasp the mechanics. When you do crash, you can activate impact time to steer your wreckage around the road and in certain events, you can activate a crashbreaker where your wreckage explodes causing damage to any vehicles in the blast radius. Performing a takedown extends your boost bar, you can steal boost from your rivals or opponents, and crashing results in losing a segment of your bar. Driving dangerously fills up your boost bar and you can activate a boost at any time. If you’ve played Burnout 3, the mechanics will be very familiar. The 360 version includes new content and it’s the version I played for this review. Developed by Criterion Games and published by EA, Burnout Revenge was released for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox in September, 2005 and Xbox 360 in March, 2006. ![]() Legends is a blending of the first three games for portable systems and I consider Revenge to be the true successor. It was technically followed up by two games Burnout Legends and Burnout Revenge. Burnout 3 had me glued to my TV for days. The sense of speed and satisfying destruction make it both exhilarating and addictive. How do you follow up a game like Burnout 3: Takedown? I consider it to be one of the greatest racing games of all time. ![]()
