All-new cars in three classes (race, muscle and crash) accentuate different play styles and power ups, physically transforming as they become more powerful Tracks spanning three continents and inspired by real-world cities – from Detroit to Rome to Tokyo Online Play – Take Burnout Revenge online for 6 player online action on Xbox Live

4 Stars Fun game
Great game for people like me who can’t stop crashing on a regular game :)

4 Stars one of my favorites…
If you want to let off some steam with some OFFENSIVE driving, this is a great game. But I’m posting this mostly to warn you that it looks like this title no longer supports online play. Somebody correct me if I’m wrong, but for the last several months I’ve been getting nothing but the “could not connect to EA servers, try again later” message.

Single-player is *still* a lot of fun, and I still like this game more than Burnout Paradise. Maybe I’m old-fashioned, but I *like* the ability to “check” traffic without crashing in a race. In Burnout Paradise, you can “check” another racer, but if you brush up against any other traffic, you crash. Feh.

Also, “crash” mode is beeg silly fun. You get a preview of an optimal route to leave the biggest traffic pileup in your wake, and then you get a chance to try to make it happen. And if you’re at least moderately successful, you will be rewarded with the ability to trigger an explosion of your car and use “aftertouch” to steer your airborn wreckage into the path of even more oncoming traffic, all while being cheered on by an unseen crowd: “We want more! We want more!”

Okay, so it’s not the most *realistic* racing simulation game. But I don’t want a realistic racing simulation. I don’t want to crash and then be in the hospital for 3 months. No, I want to CAUSE crashes, and then be rewarded for it.

This is a big fun game. Even if EA has killed off the multiplayer part of it. But, you know, just factor that in to your buying decision, with this game or ANY game: the availability of online multiplayer functionality is not necessarily FOREVER… or even four years.

5 Stars Great Game
Good graphics, lots of fun, love the crash mode.

Great replay with crowd response.

Just what I wanted in a game.

4 Stars Good but a bit boring
The whole game is good but the control is too easy so it is a little bit boring and the game modes are very simple too. Overall, I like it!

4 Stars Burnout Revenge
Even though Burnout Revenge is a first generation XBox 360 game, it is loads of fun. The gamer does not need simulation driving skills. It is simply meant to be fun and the music is great. Visually, it takes some getting used to the harsh contrast incorporated into the game. It must have been intentional, though. The bright sunlight in your eyes contrasted by the dark shadows on the road, add a level of difficulty without slowing down the gaming experience.
