Review: Burnout 3 - Takedown @ Gamespy

As much as I'm hesitant to make statements as conclusive as the following, it must be said: Burnout 3: Takedown is the new king of arcade racers. Think about everything that was brilliant about its predecessors -- the whimsical take on the laws of physics, the gorgeous graphics, and the completely insane emphasis on crashing -- and multiply it by ten thousand. You now have an inkling as to how much Burnout 3 has added to the series' already-solid formula.

Yes, I'm laying the hyperbole pretty thick, but in this case, it's appropriate. Burnout 3: Takedown is the culmination of all the enticing concepts that the series has been previously flirting with. The end result, just like it was in our dreams, is a brilliant and addictive arcade racer that truly transcends that arbitrary label. I'm not kidding.
