 Great game, a must have title for your 360 library June 27, 2008
There is nothing that can go wrong in my day that a couple of hours of Burnout Revenge can't fix. There's nothing like slamming a rival car into a bridge support or oncoming traffic after a long day at work.
Being a fan of the racing genre and having played literally hundreds of hours of Burnout 3, I figured that Burnout Revenge was a must-have game. New crash events and good online play make an already good title even better in Burnout Revenge. Driving Simulators are nice, but don't always make for the most exciting gaming experience. Let's face it, why would I want to drive a stock Hyundai Tuscani in a game when I have one in my garage? Burnout Revenge actually rewards you for driving that would land you in jail for years if you tried it in real life. If "traffic checking", or ramming drone cars just driving from point A from point B wasn't enough, 100 crash events were added just to see how much dollar damage you can do on the mean streets.
Work your way up the Revenge ranks, from Harmless to Elite, by earning medals in the hundreds of events. If that gets boring, take it online for more serious fun (possible oxymoron, I know). Other players will quickly become your "Revenge Rivals" once you take them down, or vice versa. Here's a cool feature, everytime you see that player online from now on, they will show up as your rival, and even tracks consecutive takedowns you have against that player (or that they have on you). I have a lot of rivals on my friends list. Ah, bragging rights.
Expect to spend some serious time playing this game before seeing any significant rewards, such as good unlockables or achievements. Those who like to pick up a game for two or three days just to unlock a big chunk of achievement points before returning it to the video store are not going to fully appreciate this game. In fact the XBox Live gamerscore average at the time of this review is about 91/1000 points. Play for awhile, though, and points will start to come in bunches.
If I could rate Burnout Revenge with 4 1/2 stars, I probably would. It's not perfect. That annoying, but enthusiast DJ is back to tell you about all the exciting things that are going on. The cars are not upgradable, nor do they have licensing to use real cars, but that's never been a huge issue with the Burnout series, in my opinion. Also, the crash cinematics, while impressive, maybe even groundbreaking, get tiresome after a few hours of play.
My recommendation? Buy, don't rent, this game (with the recent release of Burnout Paradise, the price is manageable), turn the DJ SFX to 0, create your own soundtrack, and have hours of fun with this one.
total destruction/hyper turbo speed/chaos = awsome May 18, 2008

This is a very fun game its like full auto but this one don't have guns and you can't rewind, but this is a fun game. I really don't care whitch one is better cause both burnout revenge and full auto are awsome raceing games and there both realistic looking to, this game is a fast speed takedown once you start a match your boost is slightly charged but to get full boost you have to hit the other vehicles and they will be all over the place once you hit them from behind the vehicles will be charged so fast up front and crash or fly in the air thats funny but this is a great game. This is more improved then on xbox and ps2 better grapic and gameplay, but the thing i like more about full auto that is you can use your guns, you can rewind, the turbo boost is more highly effective looking, but other then that there both very great games.

Burnout Revenge for XBOX 360 is nothing much more than a prettier remake version of the same game for PS2 and XBOX,yet its still a really entertaining car destruction game.This the fifth installement in the Burnout series and its just as good as the other titles in the serie,it ain`t the best but its pretty good,especially if you have an XBOX 360 you will be able to experience better graphics.Other than that Revenge is a pretty good game that will last for a good time. As you probably know by now Burnout ain`t unlike any other racer,you have to make takedowns wich means taking down the other cars around you by doing that you will get nitro or boost that will make you go faster.That is the essense of Burnout but its a fast high impact destruction and crashing game that everyone should love instantly.If you don`t like racing games,its just fine as I ain`t a fan of racers myself,this is all about killing every one and getting a good laugh about it.
Burnout is really a multiplayer game as its just way more fun playing with friends in all the types of races the game has to offer wich is a lot!There are races,crashes objectives,road rage,world crash tour and just so much,i don`t remember all but I can assure you there lots of different things that you can do and a great variety of races types.
The XBOX achievements are incredibly tough to get in this game!Most of them are to be done online and are things like win 50 races in a row,really hard things.I think the publisher made them a little too hard to achieve!The ones in the game will take some effort too as none of those achievements comes easy. Also there are a lot of unlockables as there is more than 79 unlockable cars,a bunch of trophies,levels,maps and the achievements are also really tought to get.Along with the online play this game will keep you entertained for a long time as there is just so much to do!On that department its very good,it has great replay value.
Even if this addition to the Burnout series doesn`t have much new things it still has better graphics and a great online play on the XBOX 360.Online the game allows you to download videos and make videos also and challenge opponents to be the best on the XBOX Live board.In overral online is pretty solid and worthy of playing. The next Burnout game is coming around 2008 and will be a revolution in the world of Burnout,for now you can still enjoy this excellent game that is Burnout Revenge.Nothing bad about the game except that it starts to get old after 5 games but still a great Burnout game that will keep you playing for a good while.Recommended to Burnout fans,4 stars.
Crazy fun twitch-reflex game. Good for parties! February 24, 2008
This game concept is absolute fury and chaos. The game is fast-paced and exciting and the simple arcade controls are easy for any novice to pick up. Its crazy single player mode and online play make it a great game to play with a friend. Get ready for sparks, burnt rubber, and twisted metal!
One thing that I should note is that to really play this game with skill, you'll need better video quality than composite video will give you. I've had a lot of problems at friends' houses with just being unable to discern things at a distance.
