Advantages: You can smash up cars Disadvantages: not officially licensed models
...Burnout 3 is a racing game, but adds a new twist to an old format by introducing racers to a special risk and reward system. By doing risky moves like driving against oncoming traffic tailgating and getting air and making your opponents crash you earn a special turbo boost with which you can drive at even higher speeds.
The Burnout series has always been top quality and the third installment adds even more excitement with a special Crash Championship mode which encourages drivers to cause spectacular accidents in order to clockup points.

It is fair to say that Burnout Revenge is probably one of the best racing games that I have ever had the pleasure to own and play. The action is relentless, the gaming experience a joy to behold with smooth controls great visuals and a drop dead top... more
I think I would have been lost if I had not bought my copy of the Prima Official Game Guide for Sims2 for the PC, quite a while after I bought the game itself. I paid £12.99 for it from a High Street shop. I think I paid full price for it, but you can... more
After Eric's death, a replacement was found in Eric Singer (ex Gary Moore, of other things). This album was one of the heaviest that Kiss have created ever.
The opening track 'Unholy' is very reminiscent of War Machine in places. They even had time... more
One of my favourite things to do is driving. I just love jumping in the car and driving around aimlessly. It's a great stress killer and gives me something to do on a sunny day when I get bored. The only thing that spoils it are some of the other... more
