    High speed, low learning curve, great physics, beautiful sets, 14 courses, a good amount of replay value (if you like racing games to begin with). What's not to like?

    Everything is good about this game I love it. It is a real fun game. The effects of crashing into other cars seems real.

    The graphics on this game are stunning! Also, the crashes are the best in the business because of it telling you the insurance sum. IT ROCKS!

    [panish] Burnout es un juego que en su día dio mucha diversión por su innovador planteamiento, este mismo sistema de juego sigue siendo igual de divertido hoy en 2012, porlo que si soys fans de la saga os recomiendo jugarlo en su mejor versión.

    Still great to play today: frantic arcade racing action coupled with a brilliant risk/reward boost system. Intense and addictive, only let down by rubberband AI.

    One of the most solid, fast, and fun arcade racers I've had the pleasure of playing.

    Burnout is not flawless, but its few drawbacks (the short time limits, strict boundaries and lack of length) matter little in the end. Its wicked gameplay dominates the experience making Burnout a must play, even if you're not a fan of the genre.
