A very intense experience. [May 2002, p.131]
-
88One of the most solid, fast, and fun arcade racers I've had the pleasure of playing.
-
87Burnout is not flawless, but its few drawbacks (the short time limits, strict boundaries and lack of length) matter little in the end. Its wicked gameplay dominates the experience making Burnout a must play, even if you're not a fan of the genre.
-
85The fastest, most intense racing game I've ever played.
-
The PS2 game is gorgeous enough as it, but the extra processing power, graphical trickery and superior control mechanism have done wonders for Criterion's racer.
-
Burnout just skirts around the edges of racing greatness, but still gets solid marks as one of the best racers this year.
-
With a great balance between graphical might and well-executed controls this game is perfect for just about anyone, beginner or expert.
-
The sense of speed is incredible. [July 2002, p.122]
-
80Offers a great mix of easy accessibility, straightforward style, and pants-wetting excitement.
-
80Overtaking games like "Gran Turismo," Criterion Games' racer is more like ageing Sega classic Outrun on a heavy dose of speed with a touch of Red Bull to help push things along.

78I really found myself wishing that Burnout had dynamic weather effects, more cars, and some extra polish.
-
It's still a fun romp. You won't find customizing options or an extensive list of vehicles to buy; but if it's chaos and destruction you want, it's chaos and destruction you'll get. [June 2002, p.81]

75If there is anything to complain about in Burnout, it has to be the audio.
-
73A run-of-the-mill arcade driving game that features spectacular crashes.
-
Thankfully the controls work better then ever on the Cube's pad, so you'll be whizzing through traffic and sliding round corners in no time at all.
-
Accessible is the key word when it comes to Burnout – the game's most notable feature is the butter-smooth, quick responsive control, especially with the perfect fit of the GameCube controller.
-
This title falls short of being a blockbuster simply because it doesn't offer enough. There isn't enough play variety and not nearly enough tracks.
-
68We've seen it all before.

PaulG.10The graphics on this game are stunning! Also, the crashes are the best in the business because of it telling you the insurance sum. IT ROCKS!
