Repetitive and redundant says it all

User Rating: 6.5 | Burnout 3: Takedown (Platinum Hits) XBOX
By MRO2K6 | Review Date:
Now, I don't have any complaints with the gameplay. The controls, cars, etc., were all good. My grief is with how the game goes on and on without going anywhere.

I've played other racing games as well, and there was a higher level of skill required the further you went into the game. In Burnout 3, all that is required is a faster reaction time and the ability to memorize the tracks.

It is disappointing, because I do love wrecking cars in games (my MINI Cooper is not getting dented in real life!). And a greater selection of music and a less annoying DJ would be great as well.

It is also disappointing to see the game shilling for different products. Not that it made me want to buy them, just annoyed to see them all the time.
