Terrible

Wow this game is terrible. Compared to any other racing game for Ps2. Your better off going with Gran Turismo 3. These Graphics are horrible and the game control stinks. Also it is very easy, i beat it in 3 hours. So don't waste 50.00 dollars on this game. Rent it and you will see how bad this game is.

Simply awesome

So fast! So adictive! Burnout is a simple arcade racer that's not trying to be GT3 with all that car collecting and ultra realism its just trying to be fast and fun and it does that so well it hurts. Its real easy to learn, and when you do get it all wrong and hit the other racers or the traffic the crashes are cool. It makes you want an airbag fitted on your controller!

Are you sure you bought Burnout? My Brother and I both agree this is the best racing game out for PS2. The game turns out to be better than all the good reviews we read, so we're happy gamers. I'd DEFINITELY suggest to anyone liking racing games to pick up a copy!

Is that light red?

Burnout rules. This was a nice surprise. I hadn't heard anything about this game until a friend showed it to me. He said it was the best racing game out there, so I had to ask the question. What about Gran Turismo? He said forget the graphics, just try it. Well I did and I have been playing it every day since. He was right, just turn down the music and turn up all of the other sounds. You don't miss the music when you hear the sound of your body crashing through the windshield at 150 mph. I've never seen a racing game like this that really makes you feel like your going that fast. The crashes are what makes this game. My friends and I noticed that just before we hit something we are actually ducking our heads and closing our eyes. Its that real, I kid you not. I love my GT3, but I think this one is more fun. Don't forget to select Dolby Surround Sound, you'll really hear it when you enter the tunnels. 3.2.1. GO

a fast driver's dream!

Finally I can race my car down busy city steets at 135mph! For the casual gamer this game is worth every penny. So much fun, spectacular crashes, great speed, great replays, great sound... easy to set up and get started... forget all the technical GT3 stuff, this game rocks!

Rent it if you aren't convinced, but you'll buy it once you do. Just don't buy it if you just got your license... it might get you into trouble. All this game is missing are the cops!

In the BLINK of an EYE...!

This is a cool game. All racing fans out there, you gotta buy this game. This is fast and fun and the crashes are cool. Real car damage and the graphics are cool. This game...ROCKS!!!
BUT, it's not as cool as other racing games, can't control the first replay, no camera views and no slow-motion, saving the replay, just only the crash and no replay in 2-player mode.

TWO WORDS.....DONT BUY!

I BOUGHT THIS GAME AND RETURNED IT AN HOUR LATER. THE BOX MAKES YOU BELIEVE THAT YOUR GETTIN THE MOST REALISTIC CRASHING GAME EVER MADE....BUT IN FACT ITS THE WORST..IF YOU WANT REALISTIC CRASHING GO BUY GRAND THEFT AUTO 3.ITS 10 TIMES BETTER. BASICALLY BURNOUT IS JUST ANOTHER RACING CLONE. NOT EVEN WORTH RENTING..NOT SURE WHY PEOPLE ON HERE GIVE IT 5 STARS.THEY PROBABLY NEVER PLAYED A RACING GAME IN THIER LIFE AND IT WAS THIER 1ST EXPERIENCE. SAVE YOUR MONEY IS ALL I HAVE TO SAY. LAYTA

Im Tired of Company reps writing their own "reviews"

There's no way this game can be considered as good as many of these reviews. Either these positive reviews are made by company reps, or the person just doesnt have any experience with other, more advanced games. Either way, they need to find a better way to screen out these obvious "OFF THE MARK" reviews

WORST GAME EVER

This game is quite possibly the worst I have played on the PS2 yet. The instant-crash replay garbage is just anoying, the graphics are not all that great, and it has very little replay value. Don't waste your money on this game, get something else.
