Information AboutBurnout (game) |
''Burnout'' is a series of high-speed Racing Games for the PlayStation 2 , Xbox and GameCube Game Console s. The game series was developed by Criterion Games and published by Acclaim and later EA Games . The first two games drew critical acclaim and a large fanbase in gamers took to the series. The ''Burnout'' series is well known for its emphasis on aggressive driving and high sense of speed. Bonus points are awarded to the player if they take risks such as driving towards incoming traffic or deliberately attempting to make their opponents crash. In ''Burnout 3: Takedown'' the latter action, referred to in game as "Takedowns", was showcased extensively. Burnout also features a special "Crash Mode" as part of the game. In this mode players are instructed to cause as much damage as possible by crashing their vehicle into traffic in a specially designed level featuring "crash junctions". The takedown element of ''Burnout 3'' is what differentiates it from other racing games. It is an essential strategy for winning races, especially in single player. There is also a "road rage" mode in which the object is to takedown as many opponents as possible. Like its sequels, ''Burnout'' uses the RenderWare engine. EXTERNAL LINK |
