Was this not released last week? Haven't most people by now either played it, read a review or at least seen some screen shots/trailers of it? Let's pick up the pace on the news stories shall we EG? Please?
Should just add - got it, played it, love it. As one review I read said, it's a little 'random' in places, but it's great fun just the same. Haven't tried the online element yet though - hoping desperately that it works better than the Burnout 3 online did. That really was a bag-o-shite!!!

Why do EA insist on using their own crank-start, petrol driven, 50p coin opereated servers, which have time after time after time after time (ad infinitum) failed to work for me??
And @ slide_away - I'm not normally a nasty person, but for fuck's sake, give it up will you. You're not funny with the 'trailer for xyz over at abc' shite! This will be my one and only response to you as I feel that if I bite anymore, then I'm only providing you with some sort of purile and infantile satisfaction......so there....

If I play it online at lunchtime it's great with a variety of games filling up and starting promptly.
Play it at night whe the Americans have woken up however :
Constantly being kicked when trying to join a game.
Idiots using the game as a basic chat forum and refusing to actually race.
People dropping out of races when it's not going their way.
You can join a race or for a bit of variety a race, no crash modes, no chase races nothing but vanilla races.

anyway, first 45 minutes of burnout revenge feels really fresh after the eventually tiring burnout 3... better gfx, improvements in the game mechanics (ai cars have their revenge by not being as easy to take down, ploughing trough same direction traffic works great), better TRACK DESIGN.... only the music's shite and the perpetual first traffic attack mission is plain ridiculous
WHERE IS THE SYSTEM LINK SUPPORT???

It's difficult to tell. At times it feels like a luge game on wheels.
"Looked very brown as well, brown and smeary due to the motion blur i suppose.
Yeah, that's about right. The graphics just sort of smear into each other.

Crash mode is much improved
Handling is closer to BO2 (ie better than BO3)
Traffic takedowns are excellent
Progression system is better
Cars feel much more valuable, instead of just 10 variations on a shape.
My mate designed the cover
Minus:
PS2 version starting to show strain, first ever sign of frame drop in Burnout
Slight hint of pop up makes judging cars harder than ever
HD 360 version is months away!

I played the PS2 version, and frankly it is hard to be convinced by any other arcade racer on any platform right now - I am totally unnerved and overwhelmed by the sheer graphical quality. Yes it looks brown, but I think people would have complained more if they had stuck to last year's template.
Gameplay wise it is, as some pointed out, often a matter of luck, but that makes it all the more exciting. As for the stupid traffic attack mode, I thought it stupid before I played it - it gives you some kind of perverse, deranged satisfaction. Couple this with the cheers during the Crash mode, and you have another lawsuit in the making, not to mention a totally mental, bonkers gaming experience.
Soundtrack is better than last year, although the in-game sound FX are way more entertaining. Turn the music off, guys (and gals) adn enjoy the sights and sounds as God - and Criterion - intended them to be.
The car models are incredibly good looking and tasteful. As always, the sheer fact that there is so much traffic on the roads adds to the realism, although none is needed. EA have done a fantastic job on the top-notch presentation, and from the title to the menus to the save screens, to the amazing trophies, everything is slick and dripping with atmosphere.
The only problem to me seems to be the atrocious load times on the PS2 version at least. Really spoils the fun and effectively sours an otherwise flawless experience.
EA did well to buy Criterion - after all this is the only legitimate racer they have, NFS losing the plot with Underground. A Niner, in my opinion.
HA! EG don't give me a review, I write my own!!!!!

I'll assume you haven't seen his other posts and therefore not bite at the 'period' comment. Although, I do wonder where I'd be expected to put the cotton mouse - not sure that I've got the right anatomy - at least not last time I checked!?!

Negatives: I don’t like some of the changes to Crash mode - the new swing-o-meter start adds nothing to it and can be quite irritating. I actually thought the multipliers were a fun feature of E3 and miss them. But the worst addition has to be the changes to the crash-breaker. Hammering buttons was fun in 1983 playing Track & Field but has no place in a modern video game.
Still, recommended.

Yeah, maybe they'll regret it when they realise half of what they bought has resigned and all they're left with is a name.

TOO MANY CRASH-JUNCTIONS IN SINGLE PLAYER!
Is it only me that enjoys the racing?
Comment below viewing threshold Show
There are only around 40/50 in Revenge, compared to at least 100 in 2 and 3...
Comment below viewing threshold Show
I agree! Though I enjoy the crash junctions more than I did in B3, I still begrudge having to play through the buggers in BR just to get to more races!
