What's the big complaint about video games these days? Lack of innovation.
If you are tired of racing games that feature roughly 2 million accurate models of real-world cars and Einstein-tested real-world physics, fasten your seat belts. "Burnout 3: Takedown," a new anti-driving simulation from Electronic Arts for the Xbox and PlayStation 2, puts the Fahrvergnuegen back into driving games.
"Burnout 3" is a hybrid of racing and demolition derby. Here, crossing the finish line first may mean little or nothing and returning your car in mint condition is a badge of dishonor. Sony's "Gran Turismo" and Konami's "Enthusia Professional Racing" are celebrations of driving. This game is a celebration of the almighty crash.
