Burnout, Criterion's original traffic-weaving arcade racer, was a hit-and-miss affair with many. It delivered an intense racing experience, but was marred by short length, fuzzy graphics, and annoying crash replays. However, Criterion has taken all complaints into account, and delivered their masterpiece: Burnout 2 - Point of Impact. It looks better and is deeper, but retains the same magnetic gameplay of the first game. Burnout 2 is one of the best games on the system, and is one of the best arcade racers to come along in a long time. The first thing you'll notice is the graphical upgrade. Anyone who thinks the PS2 is underpowered should look at what Criterion's been able to coax out of it. Burnout 2 is filled with visual beauty: lens flares, weather effects, beautifully rendered car models, lifelike tracks brimming with ambient activity and traffic, and wince-causing crashes. The roads are choked with traffic, each moving independently (Criterion says there are several different types of AI behavior now). All this at a screaming 60 frames per second...without an ounce of slowdown - even in multiplayer. When you consider the detail, the speed, and the amount of moving objects on the screen at any one time, Burnout 2 is one of the best-looking games on the PS2. Criterion and its Renderware tool deserve some serious praise for what they've accomplished. But games aren't all graphics, are they? Burnout 2 has some of the most enjoyable, adrenaline-pumping gameplay you'll find. The premise is simple: race AI-controlled opponents as fast as you can, along checkpoint-riddled courses overflowing with traffic which serves no purpose except to get in your way. Weaving amongst the logging trucks, passenger cars, and buses, time running out, AI on your tail....what a rush. The CPU cars aren't perfect, either - they'll crash as often as you do, making the races much more realistic and forgiving. Go too slow, and you'll miss the next checkpoint, losing the race - the game WANTS you to take risks, and constantly rewards you for it. If you should be unlucky enough to hit another car, be ready for a ferociously portrayed impact. However, the replays have been much shortened from the first game - one short replay and you're back on the track in no time. Another complaint that's been addressed is the lack of modes. Burnout 2 sports a training mode called Offensive Driving 101, which teaches you the advantages of power-sliding, jumping, driving against traffic, getting Near Misses, etc - all of which fill your Burnout meter. When full, you can access a speed boost that'll launch you into serious high-g territory, complete with screen blur and a soundtrack change. Drain your meter without crashing and you get a score multiplier. Time Attack is exactly what you'd expect - try and set your best lap/course times. Pursuit Mode is also new - you're a police car chasing another vehicle, with no other purpose but to ram it into submission...while avoiding traffic yourself. Do so, and you'll unlock the car for the other modes. None of the cars are licensed - not surprising when you consider the twisted hunks of metal they become - but it's easy to see their source of inspiration (i.e. the Classic is obviously an old-school Caddy...and you can choose to make it pink!). A brilliant new mode is called simply Crash. Criterion's smart - it knew it had a great creation with its impact engine, but fully including it in the main racing modes disrupted the flow of the races. Enter Crash mode, in which you're given a few seconds, a full Boost meter, and a busy intersection just ahead. Here, the object is to cause the biggest traffic accident you can. After you throw yourself into motor mayhem, you're treated to an ego-indulging, overhead, slo-motion replay, and you're given a final score (in insurance dollars). Plus, wreck five cars at once, and your total is multiplied by five. This mode is a stroke of genius that's huge fun with friends, in an un-ending competition to wreak the most havoc. Championship Mode is similar to the original Burnout: progress along a series of races, unlocking cars and new courses as you go, but in Burnout 2, you're given a points system rather than the rigid "You Must Finish First To Advance" rules of the first. Burnout 2's single-player mode is longer than before, but still has the same difficulty level. Driving game vets will be able to jump in and unlock stuff right away. But once you unlock everything, you'll most likely leave Championship behind - the real replay value of Burnout is in the multiplayer and Time Attack modes (plus a couple other worthwhile secret ones!). Burnout 2: Point of Impact is a thrill freak's dream. It's the fastest game on the PS2, looks gorgeous, has great sound, and packs tons of replay value. If you liked the original, you'll love the second - case closed. If you passed on the first, Point of Impact is definitely worth looking at, because all the gripes you mave have had have been fixed, and the new modes make Burnout 2 quite an attractive package. As the AAA-title-swamped end of 2002 approaches, Burnout 2 may get lost amongst higher-profile titles, but as of October, it's without a doubt my pick for Game of the Year...and I'm not really a huge fan of racing games.

Fun, but the Custom Championship Series has an annoying level of difference between other car's acceleration/control ratio and your own.

Finally it was the day of Burnout 2 release for the playstation 2 and I went to the mall and bought it immediately as they put it on the shelf brand new for 50 bucks. I brought it home and completely tore the plastic wrapping off of it. Then I opened it and popped my Burnout 2 into the Playstation 2. I waited for it to load up then I played it for a few hours and then for days and now here I am still playing the thing! Burnout 2 is straight up fun! It's a game in it's own league. It's not meant to be racing game at all actually. It is meant to be a game for looks of it's great crashes and crash simulations. What ofcourse bugged me the most was when I was in a race and I did hit something, the game reset my car damage and everything and I am a guy who likes a car game that has a ton of car damage showing (for example stuntman is the king of car damage). So lets break this game down in a classical 5 point rate system . . . Gameplay - The gameplay deserves a perfect 10 even though I wish it featured more game modes and more fun crashing levels that I could of played. Or you know what would have been sweet maybe where you could set up your won crash scene (*Hint hint for maybe another sequal? hint Hint*). The game itself is stunning becuase it's unique. I mean what other game do you know of (beside burnout one) is designed mainly for flashy crashes and the most realistic simulated crashes ever! Graphics - The graphics get a perfect 10 as well! The graphics were sweet. You couldn't ask for better graphics on the PS2. The game was at it's all time high because of it's graphics. We all know the graphics make the game! Nice solid graphics are what everyone wants to see and Burnout 2 can deliver on that! sound - Sound gets an 8 becuase at some point, the game gets really annoying because of it's sound. For example in the crash mode, when you crash you hear the sound of nothing but alot of car horns and it does nothing but annoy you and there is no soundtrack that you could actually call a song or even entertaining, but still I rated sound pretty high because the car sounds were pretty solid (Except for all that friggin' horns). Controls - the controls I am going to give a 9 because controls made the absolute difference when it came to the crash mode. I mean for example the one with all the RTA buses at the begging and so on, you had to hit that just right because if you didn't you would mess it all up. You would of had to turn just right to hit the first car which would make you spinout into the air and hit the buses airbourne and then you were able to also hit other automobiles infront of the buses as well, but still the fun crashes were really why I bought the game so that wasn't a bother for me. Overall - This game is for some, but not for all. It's a unique game and some might feel different than others. some like the game and then some people absolutely hate it for one little thing. Either way, I would rent it before you buy it just in case. I didn't rent it though, I bought it when it came out because that was my decision. Rent it and if ya like it, buy it.

The only games I play are driving games and martial arts. This is not the best driving game. It has it's good points, like cool crashes and lots of places to drive, but the graphics are mediocre and it does get boring fast. Honestly, I would rather play the first Need for Speed, because it never seems to get boring. My advice is look elseware.
