    Something screwy is going on here, Burnout Crash is amazing!!!!!! I loved it from the first explosion, strategy, autolog and amazing production value and love was put into this game. I think a bunch of racing fans are pissed this is not what they wanted but that does not mean this game is not awesome. AND METACRITIC YOUR LISTING IS WRONG IT IS NOT REQUIRED TO HAVE A KINECT

    A quick to play and addicting game, bringing back a favored aspect of previous Burnout titles that was missing (or just too different to recognize) in Paradise. Watching buildings fall is satisfying and the balance between the biggest explosion and safely clogging the road is always fun to weigh.

    A good little arcade romp spun off from the great Burnout franchise. Nothing too complicated here. Crash vehicles into other vehicles, structures and hidden prizes. Good replay value, very accessible to non-hardcore players and achievement hounds alike. Fun gameplay for the kids as well. Worth the points.

    A game with great first timer appeal that never fails to raise a smile, but also has great depth for when you start shooting for the really high scores. Autolog recommendations adds some real longevity and the Pile Up mode just keeps me coming back to get a slightly higher score.

    I'd suggest throwing in Burnout Paradise to get your crash fix. For about the same price, you get a full retail game, along with the Showtime game mode, which is what burnout crash is based on, but Showtime was way more fun.

    The exclusion of multiplayer is a travesty. Shame on you Criterion. Shame on you.

    Overall it is a fun game with adequate replay value courtesy of the star system and EA's Autolog. This is obviously more valuable if you have friends with the game. However, as mentioned above, be sure those friends aren't in the same house with you. If they are, you won't be able to play with them at    The exclusion of multiplayer is a travesty.

    In summary, it's worth buying if you have lots of friends that aren't really that close.    … Expand

    Its a solid mobile game, but not what i'd be happy playing. Just buy paradise and skip this...its it that worth it...I mean just put your cash towards a copy of paradise because it also feels a lot more authentic than this.

    Un petit jeu qui se concentre sur ce que le meilleur de Burnout peut donner : les accidents et les explosions ! et pour ne pas vous fourvoyer dans ses intentions, Burnout Crash a rajouté un point d'exclamation ! on est passé ici à une vue aérienne qui permet de mieux appréhender le bordel ambiant qu'on se hâte de déclencher en ricanant devant ce déluge de carambolages et de destructions...Un petit jeu qui se concentre sur ce que le meilleur de Burnout peut donner : les accidents et les explosions ! et pour ne pas vous fourvoyer dans ses intentions, Burnout Crash a rajouté un point d'exclamation ! on est passé ici à une vue aérienne qui permet de mieux appréhender le bordel ambiant qu'on se hâte de déclencher en ricanant devant ce déluge de carambolages et de destructions...

    C'est indéniablement drôle, facile à prendre en main, graphiquement assez mignon dans ses excentricités et globalement d'une débilité de haute volée qui lui vaudra incontestablement la place d'honneur au dîner du mercredi soir. Les 3 modes de jeu sont forcément très semblables et entraînent un effet de répétition non négligeable mais le plus ennuyeux concerne les objectifs dont la difficulté trop élevée finit par crisper.

    L'Autolog qui n'en finit pas de nous narguer -avec de concert la voix de l'animateur insupportable- est typique d'Electronic Arts et de ses Need For Speed ou autres... Burnout (Criterion appartient à EA, c'est comme ça...). La musique est tout aussi insupportable (une sorte de rock commercial pour jeunes étudiants de gauche). Heureusement, on peut fermer les claquos de tout ce petit monde via les options (et en jouant hors ligne).

    Pas mauvais, tantôt distrayant, tantôt énervant et souvent injuste, Burnout Crash! ne convainc pas sur le long terme malgré sa bonne tronche de vainqueur.    … Expand

    This game was a blast to play. Really wish I could play it again... or maybe a newer version of it on a modern console.

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

    Good for a quick burst of fun in the short term, but gamers looking for a test of skill would be better off playing Angry Birds. Yes, really. [Issue#115, p.98]

    Download it, but keep your expectations somewhat calm. [Issue#78, p.100]
