    From its simple premise Crash! delivers plenty of fun to reproduce a simple childhood joy.

    Approach it as a puzzle game, not a driving game and you should be fine.

    Overall Burnout Crash is a great addition to the Xbox LIVE Marketplace and for 800 MS Points it would be rude not to.

    If you loved the crash mode in Burnout 3: Takedown, enjoy pinball machines (but pine for more control) or you're just a high score junkie, have no doubt: Burnout Crash is one to get.

    Crash is not your typical every-day Burnout. It's just a simple and addicting arcade game that won't let you down until you sweat and bleed.

    It's a welcome addition to the franchise and one that slots perfectly into your gaming collection.

    If you can embrace Burnout Crash!'s design with open arms and wave the few annoyances away in the scope of a thousand retries, submit to the Autolog addiction with a bunch of friends, and devote yourself to hours upon hours of fighting for that high score, I can't recommend it enough. Still, Burnout Crash! can be entirely different things to different types of players.

    It's a light game but with a lot of entertainment for 800 Microsoft Points, and while you might not play for hours at a trot I daresay you'll keep coming back to it. Burnout Crash doesn't quite have the weight for me to call it a must-have, but it's certainly a must-strongly-consider.

    Despite having no real online or real-time multiplayer, Burnout Crash is totally addicting and lends itself perfectly to that "just one more time" mentality that kept me up one night until sunrise.

    Burnout Crash is an entertaining and exciting game, and if you're in the mood for some explosive fun, you will likely enjoy what Crash has to offer. Its large explosions and arcade like feel make it an accessible game to everyone. As warned though, don't let the Burnout title fool you, there isn't any racing in this game to be had. If you can get passed that one downside, Burnout Crash is an entertaining title that is enjoyable and accessible for gamers of any age.

    An original and funny experience, allthough the name Burnout seems to be there just for the look of it. It's more like a clever puzzle game, and a well crafted one.

    It's not likely to set any records, but at the budget price of 800 MSP ($10 USD), anyone picking up this game is going to get their money's worth.

    Burnout Crash is a proper multiplayer mode away from being most enjoyable downloadable title I've ever played.

    While the strange approach Criterion took with this bite-sized Burnout made me nervous, I am happy to report it is a lot of fun.

    It's a tasty appetizer that, while offering plenty of meat for the $10 asking price, only serves to intensify our hunger for the real thing.

    If you've got a lot of friends to compete against, Crash has a good amount of life in it. Otherwise, single-player doesn't take long to dry up.

Good replay value, very accessible to non-hardcore players and achievement hounds alike. Fun gameplay for the kids as well. Worth the points.… Full Review »
