The Burnout racing series is getting a brand new addition in the form of Burnout Crash an Xbox Live Arcade and PSN game that will be released in the fall. The game features modes designed to encourage players to crash into traffic and rack up points. Check out the news and screens below.
Cultured Vultures: The Burnout series has plenty of great games to play, but which one is definitively the best? We're here to rank them all.
I think the crash mode should comeback. Tryng to make the most damage was very cool.
Burnout 2 should be above 3 imo. The aftertouch takedown mechanic slowed down the gameplay too much in 3.
That's the mechanic that made me enjoy Burnout 3 over the others. It wasn't until they introduced it that I considered the series any good.
I love Takedown, Revenge, and Paradise. Dominator was okay, but it clearly felt like a B-tier game.
After playing those awesome games, I went back to try out part 1 and it was rough. I didn't like the controls (whereas the others felt perfect to me), the elevator music was generic and not enjoyable to listen to.
Finally the game's difficulty was extremely high. I could beat all single player races in Takedown, Revenge, Paradise, Dominator, but could not get first place in the very first race for the first Burnout game. It demands perfection and one slight mistake is all it takes to lose. I have yet to play part 2, but I'm hoping it's more like part 3 than part 1.
Burnout Takedown is my favorite racing game of all time. My wife was addicted to crash mode.

More burnout yes! I feel like this franchise has been missing from my life.
EDIT: I looked at the screens, nevermind. Could be fun though.
Now I'm not sure if I should blame Criterion Games or EA for this crap. I would love a proper sequel to Paradise, which is one of my most favorite racing games. And when it does, please come with Split-screen.
OMG MORE BURNOUT! I AM EXCITE!
Don't waste my time with this stuff. Give me a new Burnout title for the console!
How I adore the reckless destruction that is totally encouraged in Burnout! :D I can't wait!
