Burnout 3: Takedown (XBox)

(Note: The XBox and PS2 versions of this game are the same bar some minor differences I mention Here...v See end v)

Lets Begin:

Graphics:
The graphics in this game are easily one of, if not the best on XBox. The crash physics are awe inspiring! No glictches here. Each car from the compact to the super series are polished and perfected!!The graphics in this game game deserve a very high: 9.7

Gameplay:
Fast.Explains it all really lol. The handling on the faster cars are slippery but good, That is the only really complaint..lol. In the main game There is the "Burnout World Tour" Where you can race, crash or road rage to get all gold!..In the single event mode to can do "Crash Mode" which puts you on top of a crossroads or junction and you have to go head fisrt into the main road. The goal is to mak ethe worst crash and get the most cost in damages.The more vehicles you destroy the more money you cost in damages.After usually 8 cars crash it will activate a "CrashBreaker" which is pretty much the ability to make your wreck explode and make more damage. Also in single event you can do "Road Rage" mode, in which you have to get a certain amount of "TakeDowns" to unlock a new car.Take downs are basicly ramming your opponent silly until he goes crashing into a wall which sets him flying up into the air. You must get the most takedowns before you get taken down so many times until your car cant go on anymore. Also in single event you may do a "Race" mode you just basicly race but it is sooo fast.That is the main reason it is above other racers.You can also combine takedowns with racing to gain a sly first :D. This games Gameplay is arcadey yet brilliant!!!I have no choice but to give the gameplay: 10.0

Multiplayer:
WOW!!!!!This multiplayer is sweeet.OOn,line i have not played but i reccomend from watching my friend.(I also had a race).The nomal though is 4 player split screen.Its like the gamplay but better :)(Except the 4 player split screen is bad on a small tv) I'll give it: 9.5

Lifespan: Simply, this game does not have an end. You wont get bored, it wont get repeditive for a very, VERY long time: 10.0

Sound:
Great skate rock soundtrack but if your not into that change it :) (only on XBox)Also great engine revs and car shunts :): 10.0

Verdict;Pure Brilliance!!In case you haven't already noticed i loved this game..Get it: Overall: 9.7

(Difference between ps2 and xbox*)
Graphics are ever so slightly sharper on the XBox(hardly notiable) also on the XBox version you have custom soundtracks..

Enjoy :)
