Burnout Revenge (Review)

Jun 22, 2007

What could be better than Burnout 3: Takedown? For arcade speed fiends, almost nothing - except maybe Burnout Revenge, the easy-to-play, adrenaline-soaked sequel that puts the "car" in "carnage." The Burnout series has always been about two things: speed and risk. Drive against traffic and invite near misses with oncoming cars and you'll be rewarded with boost, which helps you taunt death even faster. The more aggressively you drive, the greater the reward. Slow-motion crash replays make your ...

Burnout Revenge (Preview)

Mar 7, 2006

Burnout Revenge could have been just the same on Microsoft's 'next-gen' 360 as it is on the Xbox and PS2. After all, a straightforward port with slightly shinier graphics would hardly stand out right now, as even the machine's cheerleaders would be forced to admit. And Revenge is hardly lacking excitement as it is. Yet, despite a development push that won't exceed six months, Burnout Revenge 360 is looking shockingly more next-gen than many of the more established standard-bearers. Are we ...

Burnout Revenge (Preview)

Feb 23, 2006

How many driving games invite you to crash, let alone reward you for it? In genre-shattering defiance of everything we know about racing games, the Burnout series has taken crashing, the racer's kryptonite, and morphed it into an art form. As if the series' trademark style of full-contact racing wasn't rough enough, Burnout Revenge adds the new Traffic Attack mode, which actually requires you to slam into as many cars as possible for maximum score. Crash Mode, a sort of puzzle game in which ...

Burnout Revenge (Review)

Feb 15, 2006

Picture the scene: Joel's staring at the TV screen, not blinking. Dave enters and speaks: "What's that, Joel?" "It's... SMASH! the fourth... BOSH! Burnout game." Dave: "It looks a lot like the last one." Joel: "Well... Criterion have obviously WALLOP! realised that everybody liked smashing things up, so they've EEEOW! made it even more violent by letting you smash other cars off the road by ramming into the back of them." Burnout Revenge is all about the crashes. If you've played previous ...

Burnout Revenge screens pile-up (News)

Jul 5, 2005

Burnout Revenge, the upcoming arcade-style fender-bender from Electronic Arts has revealed yet more of its new range of explosive Takedowns and vertical vehicular carnage in the Revenge and Traffic Attack modes. As the fourth instalment of the adrenal gland tapping series and the second game since developers Criterion set up camp with EA, this incarnation includes the traditional mix of stomach churning head-to-head racing and suicidal bonnet-to-bonnet impacts. But as you cast your eyes ...

Burnout Revenge hands-on (News)

May 19, 2005

We must admit to being slightly worried by the fourth instalment in the Burnout series. The idea of being able to hit traffic just seemed so very wrong and threatened to take all of the skill away from the game. But now, having had a play, we realise this is - thankfully - not so. While Burnout 3 moved away from Burnout 2's points and boost combo-driven gameplay, favouring combat and aggression, Burnout Revenge seems to have continued towards crash-centric aggressive and combative gameplay ...

Burnout Revenge first glimpse (News)

May 18, 2005

Aside from the first-looks and playtests of the first batch of next-gen titles, this is one of the most exciting games of this year's E3 show, so how could we resist a sneaky peak. Burnout 3 is the best arcade racing experience money can buy and all eyes are on its sequel to perform equally as well. But will it? Can it? The main difference is the new ability to hit traffic without suffering any sort of penalty. Moving further towards Takedown-lead gameplay and fighting, rather than the ...

Burnout 4: First shots (News)

Apr 4, 2005

Electronic Arts has today released the first ever shots of Burnout 4 while confirming that the game's official name will be Burnout Revenge. Due to be released for PS2 and Xbox in September, we're promised that the game will let you "rip through rush hour traffic and lay waste to scores of rubbernecking roadhogs in an over-the-top scene of vehicular mayhem". Crikey. As well as new race, crash and road rage modes, a Revenge feature pits gamers against the clock in the middle of rush hour ...
