Xbox 360 Review: Burnout Revenge - Page 3

Although, load times for Crash mode have been reduced, which is a pleasant surprise. As you will be restarting the event over and over again to achieve the most carnage possible, having shorter loading times in Crash mode more than any other mode of the game is a huge improvement.

As I said, I did not play Burnout Revenge six months ago when it shipped for current generation consoles, so my experience is a lot better. The Xbox 360 version is the best we have seen yet, and fans of the series should give it a look, even if they have played the Xbox or PS2 version to death already. "Your mileage may vary" is no truer than it is here.

Burnout Revenge has not changed much on the Xbox 360, and this is really a good thing. The crashes still look and sound spectacular, the EA Trax are still just as good as they were on the current generation title (which remain the best use of licensed music from EA to date) and it is still white knuckle burnout game play at 60 frames a second.

This game is highly recommended to people new to the series and looking for an arcade racer with superb production values and a strong pedigree. Though it should at least garner a rental for the ones who have the PS2 or Xbox versions of the game. If you have never played Burnout Revenge, you will be pleased with this Xbox 360 entry.

Burnout Revenge is rated E10+ (Everyone 10 and older) by the ESRB for Violence. This game can also be found on: PS2, Xbox.
