Revenge is a dish best served with the crunching of hot metal! A highly intense racing game hitting all the right notes.
The games has a good blend of crash sites, races, knockouts and traffic check levels in each of the stages. This unique style arcade racing game hits all the right notes with high speed races, destructive crash intersections and brutal takedowns. The new rival system is great, giving you the chance to take out a car that has caused you grief. The single player mode is fantastic fun without seeming repetitive. The stages fly by, and before you know it the clock rings in at 4am while you strive to get to each new stage.
Nothing is more satisfying as getting revenge on a rival online. The multiplayer mode keeps track of any gamertag (only on X360) that has taken you down and you can meet them in a race at a later date and dish out your payback. With headset communication the online races can be quite entertaining and you can trash talk all you want as you crush people halfway around the world into the walls going for that win.
All in all, a simple but well worth purchase for Xbox 360. One of the best launch titles for the system and should now be in the budget game price range.
