I got this game after seeing it get 10/10 in UK mag "Games". They are pretty reliable so I dug out my birthday money and splashed out.
Now, I enjoyed Burnout 2. It kept me entertained for a week or so and then other games took my attention. Burnout 3 on the other hand is just incredible. It will eat up your spare time like nobody's business. The Crash Junctions are outstanding entertainment, the races are breathtaking and the online mode are highly enjoyable.
The visuals are just about as good as the PS2 will ever produce. The feeling of speed is as believable as can be. The crashes are supremely satisfying with debris flying all over the place in slow motion.
I wish they had kept the high-score tale elements of previous Burnouts as this would add long term appeal after all the gold medals have been collected. However, I've been playing for hours and hours and I've just passed the half-way mark.
So, two words to round off this review....."Buy It!"
