    Hardly a vast leap forward for the series, but it's not a simple graphical improvement with a minor gameplay upgrade thrown in either.

    It's overcooked and to slick, through redeemed by the sheer quantity of stuff you can do. [Dec p.90]

    Played Burnout 3 before playing Revenge and considered the best arcade racing game experience EVER.
    I was very amazed when Burnout Revenge not only managed to keep that great formula but to also improve on it.
    If Burnout 3 is a 10/10 for me this is a 11/10. A shame I can't actually give it that rating here.
    Absolutely recommend it, very fun. Also I love the soundtrack
