You will not believe how exciting this game is. Burnout features the kind of on-the-edge-of-your-seat action that made movies like "Speed" a success.
-
There will be times when you get so frustrated you'll throw the controller down in frustration, but 5 minutes later you're picking it back because the game is not only challenging, but fun.
-
This is a fantastic game and is worth buying, but dont be surprised when it burns out of replay value a month down the line.

Game InformerWhile lacking in substance primarily cars Burnout excels in delivering edge of your seat racing. [June 2002, p.83]
-
A dedicated gamer can beat Burnout in a weekend's time, so only purchase it if you're planning on enjoying the well-done two-player mode and unlocking the extra goodies like the extra vehicles.
-
There's enough meat on Burnout's bones to provide an engaging, albeit unoriginal, take on arcade racing.
-
The crashes are a great gimmick, but after the first couple of hours the replays become more of a nuisance than a positive effect.
