4/7/2023 0 Comments Burnout 3 takedown ps2 profile![]() ![]() One of the most surprising elements of Burnout 2 was the astonishingly fast and detailed graphics engine that made it hard to believe the game was running on a supposedly humble PS2. We'll see how this claim stacks up in reality at E3, when the game's likely to be given its public debut. On a happier note, the various gameplay modes will apparently be supported online, however, and OPSM2 reports that the frame rate and detail levels are unaffected by lag. Although this is certainly a result for Sony in its attempt to tempt more of its users online, it's a massive blow for Xbox fans (and Cube fans aren't getting the game at all at this stage).

Predictably Criterion hasn't gone overboard with additions and changes - expect more cars, better graphics, you know, the usual - but has added enough tweaks to make this much more than the generic sequel it could so easily have been. Obligingly, EA has given the World Exclusive to Official PlayStation 2 Magazine here in the UK, which considers the game important enough to devote its front cover to the game as well as running a screenshot laden four-page feature on it - although most of these shots have been released already. Our face wobbles just thinking about the G-force in prospect. Needless to say, we're more than a little interested to see how Criterion can top it with the third in the series - imaginatively titled Burnout 3. ![]() After the promising, but ultimately disappointing original no-one expected this quick-fire sequel to be anything more than that - but it was, and still is, one of the best arcade racing games ever.
