Although this game has not come out for the Gamecube yet I've played the PS2 version of it and its absolotly one of the best racing games ever!!! The reason its so great is that you can buy almost any car imaginable from the Ford F-150 to the Porsche 911 turbo. So to rap this up I seriously recomend this game to anybody who likes racing, and/or is a car enthusiest!!! ---This review is in regards to the PS2 version of this game.

Funarific driving game!

Burnout is an excellent game for Gamecube. The cars are wonderfully designed and the tracks are long. This game's graphics are great, because, well, it's a GAMECUBE GAME! Any GC game is wonderfully graphinated. This driving game is like none else. Heeeeere's the top review:

PLay Control-
OH MAN! The control is perfecto! Depending on which car, though. 4 and a half!

Graphics-A huge upgrade. This is far out the best pro of 'pros and cons' of the game. 5 stars, indeed!

Replay Value-Great, especially if you like to drive. You can play Single Race with 1 player if ya' like. Four stars!

I give it 4 and a half. The half is for some controls and some replay, but overall, very good game!
Oh, have you ever played Midtown Madness for the PC? Well, I you have, get this! Enjoy!

Adreneline. Period.

Very rarley would a racing game actually make me sweat. This game managed to do this. While many people may think the cars in the oncoming lane are the biggest worry. The cars in the ongoing lane are just as bad. Select from a few different city or sports cars and take to the streets in Europe or USA. This game has the most realistic veiw point I have ever seen in my life, instead of being aloud to have a birds eye veiw: You are required to have a camera close to the ground. Many would say this is bad, but infact it increases the excitment of the game.

This game features the most realistic crashes ever. They were modled after real life crashes therby resulting in a truly radical sight. Although you may try to avoid the cars. I say you should crash into one just to see this. But then again... Unless you're VERY good you'll probably crash into one anyway.

I highly reccomend this game to those who like games that will make the user's adreneline pump. This game is very very exciting.

Rated E for everyone.

This game is great!....unless you're a sore loser... these kind of people shouldn't play this game. I've seen my 17 years old brother playing it. Once he crash, he restarts the race. What a waste of time. The racing takes time but it gives you many chances of winning. Just don't give up. Hit the gas.

I love the sounds of crashing and screeching of the tires. -sighs- Fast Cars. o0o fast cars... very fast acceleration.

I think this game is a lil' bit better than Gran Turismo. Because Gran Turismo is so serious and difficult. Long time to load. You want to race for a quick time? Use this game. Fast. Easy. A lot of fun. I don't even use memory card. Try rent at Blockbuster. Ya'll see. ^.^

THIS ROCKS!!!

This game was so good,but very hard to win first place in every race. The graphics are the best you can get! The crashes in here are amazing! When you crash you can see the damage and it looks so real!If you dont get this game you are sorry you did not

Great!!!

If you are looking for a fun game that anyone can play, this is a good game for you.It is neither too easy or hard.I'm a pre-teen and I love, But so does my little sister and Dad.This is what Me , my friends and Family want to play when they're at my house.It's worth every penny.The game is extremely fun to play any time.The only drawback is the length of the coarses.They're from 3-6 minutes long.The graphics are amazing and the crashes and sounds are majorly realistic.I hope this was a helpful Review.HAVE FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Excellent driving game!!

This is probably the best driving game I've played in a LONG time. Burnout is not a driving simulation (like F1, Driven, etc..) it is very much a game (Ridge Racer, Demolition Racer, etc...)- and a fun one at that. The tracks are very well designed, the car control is fantastic, and the extra features are neat (you can replay and save crashes to the MC.) One really cool feature of the game is that crashes are assigned 'points' by the dollar amount of damage.

Pros: Fun. Good control. Execllent AI. A zillion well designed tracks. 16x9 mode. Crashes are fun to watch. Good feeling physics model.

There are very few cons and are they are pretty minor. The graphics are very good, but you can tell this was made for 3 different systems. It doesn't seem to take good advantage of the extra horsepower the GC/Xbox have over the PS2. Still, it has better graphics than many other GC/Xbox titles. Also there's no track progress icon anywhere on the screen. There's no way to know how far behind or ahead you are and with the scope of the tracks they can feel a bit long- not knowing where the start/finish line is. It also doesn't allow for the added racing gameplay element when you're just barely ahead and trying to stay there.

(very minor) Cons: No apparent extra zing for CG vs. PS2, No 16x9 progressive. No track progress graphic.

Overall it's right up there with Rogue Leader as far as great gameplay. Well worth the $[money]!

best racing game out 4 thecube

Fun, fast, and killer graphics! .... It's really cool. Pushing your friends off the road and watching the awsome crashes is great fun. A must.

Very Fun

I tested this game thinking ti'd be a bad game from the looks of it. Was I WRONG. Unlike oldenoughtoknowbadgames' review (which shouldn't even be up because it doesn't even relate to the GCN version), I found this game to be addictive, & fun. I loved the feature that you can save your best crashes and show them to friends. TOTALLY FUN!!!
