My new addiction

OK so this weekend I went out with my fiance and got a new Xbox game called Burnout 3: Takedown. I've read some reviews on the game and since they were pretty good I got it used at EB Games. Talk about addictive game play! I don't normally like racing games because they're kinda boring since you go round and round a track or something. There are many reasons to love this game but I'll just name a few.....

Reason 1: TAKEDOWNS!
One of the coolest freakin things you can do in this game is take out your opponents. Most of the other driving games I've played punish you for hitting someone or something but this game actually rewards you for hitting a rival into a wall. Now thats just impressive all on its own and a reason why I am addicted to playing this game.

Reason 2: Crash Mode!
This is the mode my fiance plays the most since I'm really good at the driving part and beat her often. This one is totally bad ass. You get a car, some boost to go uber fast, and then you find a spot in an intersection with tons of cars and you just plow your way into it. The point? To cause the most damage of course!! My fiance is really good at this part of the game, we're talking millions of dollars worth of damage wheras I can only maybe manage a few hundred thousand or so.

Reason 3: Unlockables!
So far I've had the game for about a day and already with the help of my fiance, we've gone through around half the game. We've unlocked a ton of cars and new race tracks that just keeps us coming back for more and more. When will it end???

Well thats it in a nutshell, if you own an Xbox, you MUST get this game. When I get home from work, I'm turning on my Xbox for some Burnout bliss :)
