A Remastered Release of Burnout 3: Takedown Is Long Overdue

It's time for EA to bring back Road Rage. And Crash Mode, for that matter.

I absolutely loved this game. It was my favourite in the series, even over Paradise!

LucasRuinedChildhood435d ago

Excluding PSP spin-offs:
1) Burnout 3
2) Burnout Revenge
3) Burnout Paradise
4) Burnout 2
5) Burnout 1

2 and 3 are pretty close for me though.

neutralgamer1992435d ago

Burnout 3
Burnout revenge

These 2 in a combo pack would be awesome

Snookies12435d ago

Yep, best two in the series in my opinion.

YodaCracker435d ago

I’ve been playing this on my Series X with a PS2 emulator and it brings back so much nostalgia. Still my favorite Burnout! But I’d definitely love a remake.

DarXyde434d ago (Edited 434d ago )

More of a Revenge guy, personally.

I really hated Paradise. I played it on PS3 and the only thing I liked about it was that it allowed for custom soundtracks.

..... So I just played it with the Revenge OST. 🫡

SullysCigar434d ago

I agree about Paradise. The world raved about it and I honestly thought I was the only one it didn't click with. I felt a bit like I was playing GTA, only without the story, shooting, flying et al. It felt a bit soulless to me compared to Takedown and Revenge, which were more OTT fun!

bring back Burnout 2-5 in one nice package.

sadraiden435d ago

Go play it then. Should be able to find a PS2 copy for less than $5.

Stop wishlisting games that already exist. Stop doing EA's marketing department's work for them.

TheSenorCheese435d ago

I'm just saying that a new generation of players would absolutely love this. Not everyone can afford to hunt down an Xbox and a copy of this game.

Amplitude435d ago (Edited 435d ago )

Looks and plays amazingly on pcsx2 honestly. But yeah an actual official remastered release with better graphics and trophies/achievements and online would be lovely

SullysCigar435d ago

Why are you telling everyone how to think? You only get one opinion; yours. So do the rest of us that are interested in a B3: takedown remake. It was a great game for it's time and could be even better if brought up to modern standards.

How about a spiritual successor, then?

TheSenorCheese435d ago

Only problem is EA is so far invested in Need For Speed that it might not be sold on a new Burnout...unless there's reassurance that there's still interest in the series. Hence, the idea for a re-release of one that's an established hit. :)

Ratchetlombax435d ago

I hope you'll have fun plugging your PS2 to a modern 4K TV, because you'll need a component cable ($10 to $15 w/o shipping) if you want a decent enough quality, then a component to HDMI converter (approx. $30)... And that's if you haven't sold your PS2 and/or your game in the past 20 years, because that would set you for another $50-$60 (plus don't forget the memory card and/or the controller, because you'll have to have those too).

Anyway, once you're set, the game will only run in a 4:3 aspect ratio (that'll mean that either your image will be stretched to fit your TV screen, or you'll have black borders on the left and right sides of your display). Plus, Burnout 3 featured an online play feature that is now long gone (and I'm sure you don't remember the hassle it was to create a PS2 online account, plus I'm pretty sure that's not something you can do anymore).

By making an HD remaster/remake, it'll mean enjoying fixes for all those problems, plus updated textures and 3D models, and it would really be cheaper for the consumer: I don't think paying approximately $100 to play a blurry mess without your friends is really worth it, but hey, you do you ;)

TheSenorCheese435d ago

Boy, when did retro gaming become so expensive?!

hiawa23435d ago

Or just 4K enhance the X360 versions as they are already on back compat.

Retroman434d ago (Edited 434d ago )

LoL, you wrong buddy
I have Ps2 4k Hdmi converter with component cable for ps2 plugged into my 4k TV ps2 games look great . Bought it
on Ebay 18.00
By the way memory card only 12-18.00 on Ebay where you getting 30.00 from??
You can pick up a Cheap ps2 for 20.00 replace disk drive eye like I did ka-bam!! Running ps2 .........everything is cheaper if you take your time look around on ebay if you don't know how to repair anything YouTube will teach you how to.

MaximusPrime_435d ago

Funny enough last weekend I was playing PS2 game, burnout 3. First time in years. Fond memories.

wesnytsfs435d ago

TheSenorCheese435d ago

Although the late 2000s Turok wasn't my favorite, I would love a new entry. Open world survival with shotguns and dinosaurs. Not sure how we'd get the fusion cannon, but that would be pretty sweet too.

MadLad614d ago

Lol

All of these games are pretty much universally praised. Outside of Timeshift I literally own all of these.

Venoxn4g614d ago (Edited 614d ago )

XIII, The Darkness 2, Far Cry: Blood Dragon, Timesplitters: future perfect, Bulletstorm are awesome games

gurp14d ago

I played them all, they are all good in their own way
I used to be obsessed with FPS games
