Burnout is fun 'cause you can slam peoples' cars in to other peoples' cars and have them crash and get boost and stuff... Signature Takedowns were boss and Crash FM was boss-er I want to play Burnout now.. Except I can't. I am so sad.
Not that silly at all, just because it isn't a realistic racing simulator doesn't mean it isn't a racing game I still love Mario kart for super nintendo. My all time favourite would be the carmageddon series. For those of you too young to remember it, it offered 3 victory conditions usually: - finish the race by being first player across finish line - trash all the opponent cars in the race - kill every pedestrian in the race city/town You also got bonus points for creative kills and stunts, and could purchase upgrades to your car armor and weapon cache. This was strictly racing though, you couldn't get out of vehicle like in GTA.
Reminds me of...literally, nothing I've ever played before. Barring Motor Kombat, a minigame on one of the Mortal Kombat games, but that's a different story altogether.
Its actually more like the movie "deathrace" if you have ever see it. Lots of carnage death and senseless violence
Burnout paradise graphics are amazing, and it's kinda openworld (wich some games dont have sadly) believe me, when your car crash, your graphics card will blow up, it's amazing
Burnout, Need for Speed, Twisted Metal (although not really racing), and best of all in my opinion; Motorstorm. Try the new release Motorstorm: Apocalypse!
