[@bigeddthemonk]

Burnout 3 was the best

[@dhoffnun]

That's a tall statement about Burnout 3... and I completely agree with it. I do love me some Paradise - I played it more than I care to admit - but nothing beats 3 for me.

I love Burnout too, but EA seems to be more interested in Need For Speed nowadays. I also love Burnout 3 the most but I have an extreme love hate relationship with Revenge. More love though lol.

[@guineverepeterson1654]

I've never had much experience with burnout. When I was a kid I just played the games my parents bought my brother when no one was looking mainly NSF games and Forza. The only experience I had with Burnout was playing Burnout Paradise with my brother in the hospital when my sister was there obviously when my parents weren't there.

[@GtotheNextLevel]

I love the Burnout series so much. Thank you for yet another fantastic Complete History vid! My favorite is Revenge but Paradise and Takedown are masterpieces as well.

[@JakeTvisterOfficial]

From one franchise fan to another, thank you for covering this.

[@kingmonkey25]

I was late to the party with Burnout and only joined in on Burnout 3 - easily the most fun I've had in a driving game ever!

[@Novabug]

Not sure Mario Kart and Wipeout can be put in the same category as Arcade racers like Datona, Vrally and such. But hey. Burnout Revenge is my personal fave, the checking is good fun and the visuals and impact moments are top notch. And they say it's a Delorien, it's nothing like a DMC12. ;) Great work again dude.

[@Blind-Ambition]

Burnout 3 is undoubtedly amazing, but Paradise takes the cake for me. I love the open world driving, and the online is frustratingly good fun

[@prfo5554]

I thought Burnout 3 was awesome, but Paradise was okay. The only thing that kept Burnout Paradise from being better in my opinion was the lack of Crash Mode. I think that Crash Mode would of looked awesome in Paradise's engine.

[@Aldicena]

[@BlastProcessing]

Burnout 2 and 3 really kept me going for a while, wonderful games. Appreciated the nod to Split/Second as well, one of the most underappreciated racers ever made!

[@awesomeferret]

Burnout 3 Takedown would only be perfect if it had 720p support. 480p makes the game a bit harder in an unfair way sometimes. This game NEEDS an HD re-release.

[@staffanstuff]

Burnout 2, Playstation 2, Logitech force feedback wheel, bumper view, constant boost through oncoming traffic = Easily one of the best experiences I've had from over 30 years of gaming

[@omengaming9391]

Great video Daniel. It may be a older game but Burnout Paradise is the racing game I always go back to, logged in so many hours on console and as soon as I saw it on Steam I just had to buy it. Can't explain what it is, just something about it makes me want to go back to play it even to this day.

[@goodstuffbuddy5697]

The nostalgia of the music at 2:45

[@pidbul530]

nope, its on 3:28

[@LukesGamePage]

Lovely stuff. I don't usually play racers, but Paradise was quality. Definitely more exciting than most racing games- it's very cool how the series evolved from a fun crash simulator to an open world masterclass

[@Play-On7]

Burnout Paradise is my favorite for four simple reasons. 1) The game has a very diverse driving area. I can spend hours drifting up and down in the mountains alone. Should I get bored of that I can always drive around the city like a madman, pretend to be a locomotive or get into hot wheels mode and do lots of stunts. 2) The handling of each individual car means you'll get a different playing experience. To me the only car that sucks is the Mesquite,. Every other car has its own unique personality. My top two favorites are the Touge Custom and the Revenge Racer. 3) Custom soundtracks. This is the reason I always come back to this game. Driving around at night with intense / fast paced music in the background is something of a high for me. Metal, Eurobeat, and Dark Trance is what I recommend for the best experience. 4) Lastly the online free mode, if it wasn't for this then the game would get stale pretty quick. Nothing beats having a pissed off player(s) chasing you around half the map.

[@slopesgameroom]

+WackkaCOInc i agree with all of these points

[@54car]

Burnout Revenge x360 version is my personal fav cuz it was a slightly more polished version of 3 like was said in the review. Revenge has my favorite tracks, car design, soundtrack and aesthetic. I liked the grittier color palette, traffic checking and more closed in tracks w/ timed road rage mode; there was never a dull moment imo. I still get why 3 or paradise can be someone’s fav too because they’re brilliant and might be objectively better, even tho revenge is the sweet spot imo.

[@mobilesnapper79]

Finally found this one. I have to say the last great burn out was the xbox360 revenge. Being colour blind the open world paradise was too hard to see the corners at that speed where as the track based ones were perfection. Yes I know it indicates when to turn but there wasn t enough difference in the colours on the corners to see the gap for me. It just blended so well at speed it was impossible. Burnout also wreaked every other driving game that doesn't have a boost button as nothing ever felt as fast since. Great video and yes burnout is well worth everyone's time.

[@alwaysxnever]

I was unsure of Paradise, but this made me buy Revenge again and I may have to give Paradise a try. You're the best, man!

[@Tool0GT92]

Paradise is ok, I prefer the "select the race and play" method vs. the open world thing where you drive around to find races.

[@robertboucher3217]

Absolutely loved that video dude! I'm with you on Paradise being the pinnacle! Those challenges you could do with friends were such fun and the island dlc is probably my favourite dlc ever! This and F-Zero X will always be favourite racers ever!

[@augustvonmackensen7273]

Burnout 3 Takedown. One of the only games iv stayed up all night playing. Crash mode was just too good.

[@GuitarAnthony]

I still hold that Burnout Revenge is the perfect driving game

Thank you for the unexpected trailer at the end. I didn't know that exists! Albeit, doesn't seem like a complete experience, it has promise! Your video is fantastic, enjoyed the whole thing. I wish there could be a remake of B3:T in the Paradise engine, and for DJ Striker to make a comeback with new (and hopefully less cringe-worthy) quips and comments; and to be able to mix and match tracks, setting up your own routes and playing them in 4-player split-screen. xD

[@Mace2.0]

Time to burn in to Burnout. Used to play the shit outta Revenge.

[@TatsTopVideos]

This is a great video. I've played all burnouts, and for me my favourite Burnout, was still the original Burnout. ^w^

[@21stCenturyGuy]

Tats TopVideos Burnout: Paradise was my entrance into the series because of Dead Space (It was an on disc demo). I need to find time to invest in the series.

[@slopesgameroom]

+Tats TopVideos i waz super into that when it came out

[@SwankeyMonkey]

Amen. Loved the original on XBOX, and I thought they progressively went down hill little by little every iteration since, losing the character of the original game and making it into some type of over-the-top arcade racer. Almost like they hired on Michael Bay to destroy our childhood favorite *Burnout*.

[@TatsTopVideos]

Yeah. I have to agree some of the handling of the cars in the original game can be difficult. But I think that was because of the cars you may of been using in the video. Ie the Muscle Dodge Viper, Saloon GT or the Pickup. The other cars like Coupe and Sedan are actually alright and fairly nimble. Bus and Tow Truck can be pretty easy too, cause there's a glitch where you can slam into the back of a car (not truck or bus) and you won't activate the crash cutscene. I also like the feature that you see the silhouettes of the drivers in each car, and they took that out of Burnout Paradise. and I love the replays too of the first game. I covered that in my Top 5 Reasons I Enjoyed Burnout ^w^

[@TatsTopVideos]

true, I do like Burnout Revenge's speed though and sound design. I think it's the fastest Burnout game. I'm planning to put that in my video of Top Fastest Racing Games. along with Burnout 3 Takedown. I still feel that both games deserve a mention, can't have one without the other =P But I'm glad Burnout Crash wasn't mentioned either, that was an abomination.

[@VincentDeLuca2003]

Three years later, and this is still an amazing review. Love coming back to this video and these games every now and then.

[@GanjsmostPrime]

The funny thing is that the team that took on burnout 2 actually did the port of the ps2 hot pursuit 2, in which it was almost a completely different game to the other two ports. It's my favourite nfs game by far (because really it's a burnout 3 trial)

[@medicmaniac2290]

Nice vid. Burnout nut myself, have pretty much all of them. My fave is Burnout 2 (i played 1 & 2 on my Gamecube) as it's combo system is simple yet very rewarding and i feel that crashing your opponents ('takedown' is such an Americanism) detracted from the nigh on perfect simple gameplay of 2. I suppose the crashing was added for online multiplayer .. I do feel however that Ridge Racer, especially Ridge Racers (PSP) and Ridge Racer 3D (3DS) are my favourite arcade racers ever with special mention to F Zero GX for being flippin fantastic. I did buy Dager Zone the other day to keep the support for Three Fields, fingers crossed they can achieve success with their studio and hopefully make a successor to Burnout.

[@HACHIAttack]

But you know why Burnout 3 is the best one yet? Not only the gameplay plus the maps, but the soundtracks too! I mean, let's face it, listening to rock is pretty damn great in normal days. But in B3, you could literally cause havoc on the road just by listening some heavy rock and pop punk tunes from Ash, MCR, FOB and Jimmy Eat World and so much more!

[@rosse119]

really great video, I have a massive love for burnout. For some reason I always thought Thrill Drive was an inspiration for Burnout as it shares a lot with the early Burnout in my opinion.

I hate to say it but as much as I love the burnout series as a whole, I can't play the original. I can't say it's a bad game because I just flat out can't play it, it feels floaty and off. This is from someone who fully completed Burnout 3 and has played all the others. The second game feels similar but I can play that one, it's decent.

[@dragons_red]

Agree. Kinda like the SSX series, the first iterations were adored for their new gameplay and concept. Later iterations had improved the original so much, the original games are all but unplayable.

[@frankschuler2867]

Burnout 3: Takedown on the original XBOX is my favorite racing game of all time...no joke.

[@DragonNexus]

I rented Burnout 1 and hated it. It turned me off the series completely. Never played 2 or 3. But when the 360 came along I'd heard Burnout Revenge was a must-have, so I bought it on a whim. And I was hooked. Loved the game, loved crash mode (one of the best physics puzzle games ever). fun personal fact. Burnout Revenge introduced me to Nine Inch Nails with The Hand That Feeds. I loved the song and went looking up this band I'd never heard of to see what else they did. My sister was happy to hook me up with her CDs and I was hooked on them, too. I have a lot to thank Burnout Revenge for.

[@CafemanOld]

I love The Complete History series, and I love Burnout games. Loved the GCN original (very difficult though), was amazed at the graphical upgrade in B2, loved Takedown on PS2, loved Paradise although it took me longer to get into. I still own multiple copies of all them, across different consoles. This vid makes me want to dig 'em out again. Thanks!

[@fenbekus]

Great vid! I do love Paradise the most as well, but all the games are awesome! Paradise just nails everything that I want, the feeling of speed, the precise and satisfying controls, the soundtrack, the ACTUALLY NICELY MADE open world (those feel so empty in most racing games, like NFS, just a few roads and that's all, while in Paradise, there are so many roads! It's so complex, and it's great!). I also like that the game didn't offer any GPS, that made me pretty much memorize the map, I don't have to ever check where's the finish! Oh, and you can actually pick your road in races, there really is more than one method of completing most races!

[@Play-On7]

True on the no GPS. I managed to memorize the entire map, but in games like GTA and Saints Row I wouldn't know how to get anywhere without the GPS.

[@lifeschool]

Thanks for this history tribute to one of my favourite franchises of all time. I was introduced to the original Burnout by a friend via his Sega Saturn, and the Saturn version is clearer and faster. But there is something about the original which was so fun, and just the right balance of skill needed to avoid crashing out. For me Burnout 2 was too easy, Burnout 4 was just a pale imitation of 3, and 5 was just a pale imitation of 4, so the best for my money was Burnout 3. love the DJ, love the gameplay and handling, and still think 3 is the best racing game ever, with Burnout 1 close behind. Never liked any Need for Speed games. Would love to see a history of Katamari some time. :)

It's probably best I wasn't because most of them were let got the moment the game was done. I was working on Battlefield Bad Company and Harry Potter by then. I got to play Paradise early though and loved it. Grabbed it day one and probably played it more than any racing game bar maybe Forza 2. It's nigh on perfect. Plus, you're right, Burnout 3 Takedown can also be regarded as the best for sure. They're different takes on the same idea but both that and Paradise are near perfect. I think they knew that with Paradise they didn't really have anywhere else left to go, which is fair. Would totally go for a PS4 upgraded version of the game though.

So I completely agree with you Dan. Burnout 3 was so well polished and thought out, fit perfectly into the 6th generation console scene. But with Paradise, I disagree. I tried it for one hour, but nothing clicked inside me, that would make me wanna play it more. Maybe my gaming tastes has changed over the years.

The last F1 races were hard, I remember that too. But I managed to play it through couple times anyway.
